I would be my stick and berries she thinks her only shot is a brokered convention and that can't happen if she drops out. She needs to stay to split up the votes.....
The more I hear from her and actually listen, I honestly think Warren is a certifiable nut. And to eliminate any doubt she gets more extreme nearly everyday.
She has to. Bernie is the leading candidate... so she and the others HAVE to get nuttier and veer more to the left to keep pace.
This is how a constitutional democracy dies.
No sir. It is how a political party dies within a constitutional Republic. Thank God for this election. It is the most sobering cold wet rag in the face of a public drunk on distraction could have received. Now we need to clean house while the memories are sharp and clear as to just how far and how pervasive the public permitted the radical left to go and become within our Republic.
This election is like the Dr. telling a patient they have a malignancy, but one which can still be removed before it becomes terminal.
I wish I could agree with you, I really do. However, the stunning youth love for Bernie is what is concerning for the future (I'm speaking beyond election 2020 here). Conservatism had better have a post-Trump plan, or it's going to get really ugly really quick. By a plan, I mean a way of winning back the minds of young people. They're all about "give me free, give me free", but they're too stupid to realize what is happening. Yes, we're watching a major splintering and potential dismantling of the democratic party... but what is emerging from that is far more frightening to me... for 2024 and beyond. There's a very dark and dangerous monster laying in wait on the other end of this for conservatives to continually fight.
And who is it that regularly points out that the main thing that has to be addressed for conservatives to be sure of their future is to address the matter of public education. They pump out a new graduating class of socialistically trained brains each year while the conservatives bury another class of theirs. The NEA needs to be dismantled and the States need to have education returned to their purview.
But what I'm saying here is if the stark reality of this election doesn't wake us up then yeah, we're in major crisis. If it does, which is my hope, we have a good chance to really dig deep into the communist and socialist infiltration of our society starting with education and ending with special status for fringe minority groups some of which are based on perversions.
My point is you can't kill a monster until you admit it is real, and admit it is in your home either in your closet or under your bed. Spot it, identify it, and kill it. If the public doesn't see it now, they never will. This monster has grown while hiding behind the story of McCarthyism. The problem with tail-gunner Joe is he caught some and became so enamored of the public accolades that he needed to find more so he found some who weren't or at least weren't in any significant way. He made them sympathetic and the media jumped on that and gave them all of the cover they needed. What he didn't do was root out the ones that were in FDR's administration, like Harry Dexter White, but more importantly those who had worked themselves into the Washington Bureaucracy.
I grew up with no sympathy for Reds, none. They have one aim and that is the destruction of our way of life, from the institutions of faith, to the common morality, to the destruction of capitalism and the essence of freedom. They want to replace it with a failed system artificially created to right injustices that are fictitious or overblown. They prey upon race and class differences. And it is time for us to call them on their actions at every turn.
And if Hollywood needed cleaning out in the early 50's it needs total disinfection today, along with the corporate media.
