Lets see. Stock market up, housing prices up, employment up. Crime rates down. Iraq deal completed. Obamacare. Compare to Trump who is possibly broke and is so afraid of what his income taxes will show that he won't do what everynother presidential candidate has been willing to do. Yep
1 in 6 men are no longer in the labor force and no longer looking. One of the reasons for the exploding welfare rolls. From the previous loss of 9 million jobs we have barely recovered anything because we have to recover those jobs and increase by the growth in population. You call that success. Our labor participation rate is worse than after WWII when men were flooding the labor force.
Democrats are still socialist and populist just as Woodrow Wilson and FDR. Most people in the world aren't for killing a certain type of people just cause of their skin color, but will do anything and everything to stay in power. Dems do this perfectly with their pandering and flip flopping on every topic. They have no conviction, no morals, no standards, they just want to do what they have to do to get the votes. It used to be by pandering to the overwhelming majority of whites that they are "better" than the blacks and the politicians would do everything they could to ensure they were right. Dems brought out every quack "scientist" to back up their divisive speech of separate but equal propaganda to segregate. Dems still do the same thing today, but instead of giving blacks nothing, they give them just enough to survive, be fat, dumb and happy. The majority of the black population in America live in the democrat ran city slums, being arrested by democrat police, or shot, for minor drug offenses. Ever wonder why murders don't get solved in black neighborhoods but weed smokers are always caught? Ever wonder why planned parenthood is stationed right outside of minority neighborhoods and not by the trailer parks? I don't think dems are full blown racist, but they do know how to control blacks through constant victimhood and public handouts. And heaven forbid you ever start succeeding as a black person, your government handouts will be stripped from you and you will lose money unless you make over $70k threshold. Dems also throw out the fact that the median income for the south, the place with most of the jobs, is lower than the big cities like NY or Bos or the north in general, but what they don't mention is that you can do better in the south off $50k than you can in the north by a long shot. Are there racist out there? Sure, but its not as bad as they claim. You don't see these supposed racist cops shooting blacks in the republican areas of the south, everything that the BLM has protested has been in democrat controlled cities where the police are democrat supporters, and blacks have given unwavering support to democrats for the past 100 years with almost zero improvement to the socio-economical status of the community as a whole. And when you say republicans haven't changed, doesn't that tell you something? Since the GOP was started to end the democrats oppression over minority groups? The democrats name says their mind set is, and always will be about the majority imposing their will on the minority. "Democrat" or "democracy" is by its very definition, the 51%>49%. Mob rule.
Read what? All you did was give the CEO of Univision's name. Jorge Ramos has his station consistently skewed the line between legal and illegal immigration. He pretends his station is a new service, but it is extremely biased in it coverage. So much so, that he makes CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News look impartial. Trump is right to call this racebaiter hater out. Now if you have a specific quote by Trump, post it. Don't just drop a name, and call it a quote.
Jesus. Read the link. I take it that you have zero clue about what he said. Not reading the link will lead to being uninformed and therefore prone to blindly defending (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)s.
It is true, in 2004 Obama didn't have the experience in government to be president and he admitted it. By 2008 he had gained that experience by being a US Senator and he's proven to be a relatively good president in the eyes of the American people where over 50% approve of his performance. How about Donald Trump admitting that he's not qualified to be president because he's never served a single day in any high level government position and, as a self-appointed CEO of his own corporations, he's a four-time loser as an executive because that's how many corporate bankruptcies he's responsible for.
Yeah the bill the Democrats finally came around and joined Republicans in passing after they fought against and defeated all their previous efforts for decades.
The Republican Party hasn't changed? Who made that claim because the Republican Party is no longer the Social Liberal party of Abraham Lincoln that fought to end slavery and today has become the Social Conservative Party of Andrew Johnson that infamously proclaimed, "This is a country for white men, and by God, as long as I am president, it shall be a government for white men." It was Republicans that claimed whites were the "moral majority" in America and not the Democrats. It's the majority of Republicans (57%) that want to dismantle the US Constitution and impose a Christian Theocracy in the United States because Christianity is the majority religion. It's the Republicans today that oppose the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and the Equal Pay Act from the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960's. This isn't your grandmother's Republican Party anymore.
Yes after they finally gave into the Republicans and realized that of they didn't they'd never win another election as even the South was turning against the segregationists whom they wlecomed in their party.
It is a defacto item of history that the Democratic party of today was the Republican party of old, and the Republican party of today is the Democratic party of old .. so in reality attempting to compare the Democratic of old to the Democratic party of today is just comparing apples to oranges. During the 1860's the Republican Party orchestrated an ambitious expansion of federal power, helping to fund the transcontinental railroad, the state university system and the settlement of the West by homesteaders, and instating a national currency and protective tariff. Democrats, who dominated the South, opposed these measures. After the Civil War, Republicans passed laws that granted protections for African Americans and advanced social justice; again, Democrats largely opposed these expansions of power. Fast forward to 1936. Democratic president Franklin Roosevelt won re-election that year on the strength of the New Deal, a set of Depression-remedying reforms including regulation of financial institutions, founding of welfare and pension programs, infrastructure development and more. Roosevelt won in a landslide against Republican Alf Landon, who opposed these exercises of federal power. So, sometime between the 1860s and 1936, the (Democratic) party of small government became the party of big government, and the (Republican) party of big government became rhetorically committed to curbing federal power. The transition took place when a highly influential Democrat named William Jennings Bryan blurred party lines by emphasizing the government's role in ensuring social justice through expansions of federal power traditionally, a Republican stance -- this was done in attempt to win the west, the admission of new western states to the union in the post-Civil War era created a new voting bloc, and both parties were vying for its attention. Democrats seized upon a way of ingratiating themselves to western voters: Republican federal expansions in the 1860s and 1870s had turned out favorable to big businesses based in the northeast, such as banks, railroads and manufacturers, while small-time farmers like those who had gone west received very little. Both parties tried to exploit the discontent this generated, by promising the little guy some of the federal largesse that had hitherto gone to the business sector. From this point on, Democrats stuck with this stance favoring federally funded social programs and benefits while Republicans were gradually driven to the counterposition of hands-off government.
No just that far to when they were open and proud about it. Then they started hiding it and fooling people.
The white liberal differs from the white conservative only in one way: the liberal is more deceitful than the conservative. The liberal is more hypocritical than the conservative. - Malcolm X And have you guys ever heard Malcolms Bullet or the Ballot speech? Malcolm X hated Democrats/liberals. The way that Malcolm X describes these disgusting liberal Democrats is the exact same way they are today - they havent changed at all. I cannot believe that African-Americans still vote Democrat. It is crazy.
The Democrats are exactly what they were back then unprincipled political panderers. When they realized the country including the South was turning against the segregationists they had to change their tune and stop fighting the Republicans over civil rights. And Republicans have changed little, they still hold to the conservative principle we should be judge but the content of our character not the color of our skin and all should be treated equally under the law.
Actually, it is you that is being racist! Your claiming that all illegal immigrants are from Mexico. Their not. Not even all the Latino's are from Mexico. Surely your not going to claim that Hondurans, El Salvadorians or even Cubans are Mexicans. Not to mention the Chinese, those from Middle-Eastern countries, African countries, or even European countries. Not all illegals entering into this country are Mexican, and it is racist to claim that they are. Further, it is not racist to expect the President of this country to do his job as required by the US Constitution. That includes protecting this country from foreign invaders. Yes, illegals streaming into this country is an invasion. Just like Jews streaming into Palestine after WWII was an invasion. Now to the subject of Anchor Babies. I do not believe that families should not be rewarded for entering this country illegally, and having babies in the false belief that the baby is a citizen, and that they would not be forced to return home. IMHO, I think that the whole family should be deported. But Conservatives, unlike Liberals of the past decade, are willing to compromise on issues. This is one where I see compromise. First, the parents that entered this country illegally, should be deported. If the family has a relative that is in this country legally, then they can leave their kid(s) with that relative. They will then be deported, and would have front of the line privileges to acquire US Citizenship legally. Families that do not have a legal relative will all be deported. For Children of illegals that are over the age of 18, they can remain in this country as long as they, (a) have a job, (b) no criminal record, and (c) pay all income taxes for any past year not paid. I will even go so far as to say that any child that was born in the US, and was deported with their parents, they can return to the US after their 18th birthday. The whole open borders concept is ripping Europe apart, and driving them closer to war. Do you really want to see that here? Personally, I thing Trump on spot-on on this issue. - - - Updated - - - Go back and read your own post. There was no link.
My bad. My edit didnt go through as my phone froze. Look it up. He told him to go back to Univision. Thats pretty (*)(*)(*)(*)ty.
The person I was responding to said it. And I think he was being pretty honest. And Andrew Jackson was a democrat. Ive already been over this survey and you are still taking things out of context. No one said they wanted a Theocracy. No one said they wanted to dismantle the constitution. As for the civil rights act, or voting rights act, or Equal pay act, citation needed. As for the EPA, we know that laws don't mean anything to democrats, that why Killary pays women working for her less than men, so show me how its the GOP that wants to do away with something the left already does.
Economy still in the doldrums, employment picture still sucks, Iran deal a farce and Obamacare imploding into the predicted death spiral. And Obama offers NOTHING to fix the mess be created. The was incompetent to begin with and that has not changed a twit.
Dealt with and debunked in prior threads. King wrote a letter to Nixon thanking him for his campaigning for Civil Rights, but you weren't going to tell us that. Readers can believe cherry-picked quotes concerning King's opposition to Goldwater, or whole in-context letters thanking Nixon. http://www.thekingcenter.org/archive/document/letter-mlk-vice-president-nixon-0#
Lincoln himself said similar things. Basically everyone who wanted elected did, because the entire country was of the "white supremacy" mindset then. Makes no case for some "change" in the GOP. Didn't happen. Regardless of how they vote, blacks are a huge factor in Christian fundamentalism in the US as a matter of fact. Or rather cite to ANY institutional GOP materials saying something as absurd as the above. Post more unsubstantiated BS. You have exactly zero credibility on this forum due to posting fabricated garbage like the above at every opportunity.
All this history is why I'll never allow my children to set foot in a government run school. They'll never learn the truth of our past.
Actually, it was his words which prompted Nixon to create reforms such as reducing the role in Vietnam, pollution controls, and other regulations.
