(11,464 posts)Jefferson said all men are created equal
silly is believing that to be all people
82% of the democratic party is not a man Jefferson considered equal (as no women or minorities need apply, only Jefferson's who owned slaves.
Don't like Bush? Don't vote for anyone but Hillary in 2016 and Jeb won't win and the Bush's won't be back.
the other stuff is just hyperbole.
btw-long before the patriot act, Bobby Kennedy authorized the taping of Dr. King.
oops.
and interesting how DOMA has come up and the NRA is using Gays as shields to attempt to get NY/NJ/Illinois and California's strict gun laws overthrown.
If one didn't like the Patriot Act, why didn't NH vote for Al Gore instead of Ralph Nader?
Could NH not have liked that Al Gore attempted some history by nominating Lieberman (a Jewish person like me) for Vice President?
Was Ralph Nader after all is said against, so against having a Jewish person as VP that Nader threw the election and NH happily went for it?
All those things happened solely because a republican was President.
Yet people defend voting for Reagan (Elizabeth Warren fans) and forcing LBJ to retire in 1968, instead of having the most liberal president ever.
Except for Dr. King,and the Million man March every other protest has not achieved the goal it started out to do. (and the irony would be if every single Million Man Marcher was packing a gun while they marched).
why though, would one wish a President to have LESS power than the other two branches?
The three should be equal.
BTW-did Nixon do anything illegal? He was pardoned by a REPUBLICAN president.
had LBJ been reelected without the fracture, Nixon never would have become President.
We could have had 83 years of democratic presidents without the fracture of the protesters in the democratic party.
It should be mandatory for 100% of every democratic voter to vote for the democratic candidate and everyone else straight down the ticket.
Any straying just leads to the extremists winning.
