You will witness below why it is the republicans rule. You shall witness posters below suggesting that we not fight. That we give up ground ... because.

Hard to believe in this day and age that they would give in and accept the way things are and beg us to continue with the same generals that lead us here, but there it is.

Thank you, Manny. Too bad you have so many enemies even here on DU.

Who could argue as to the great benefit to America, MannyGoldstein Apr 2015 #38

If she is nominated it will be because she has the backing of big money. Has nothing to do rhett o rick Apr 2015 #100

It will have to do with the fact Democrats who are the 99 percent voted for her. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #101

I hope you don't deny that money can influence voters. That's why big money donates so rhett o rick Apr 2015 #103
