Siding with the racists that has promised a nazi like round up of 11 million people? Against a guy that wants national health care. Says a lot about your value system

 

Man, oh, man you can copy/paste talking points like no other.

 

By the way...Trump is also in favor of national health care, or didn't your overlords explain this to you?

The Democrat Party is a private organization that can structure itself and create it's own rules in such a way that it can nominate whoever it wants as it's candidate for any office. It's not a public entity that is actually beholden to the American public. Hell, it's not really beholden to it's registered members.

 

The only thing it is beholden to is it's leaders.

 

Yes, but they're also the Democratic Party that trumpets themselves as the champions of the democratic process and listening to the voice of the individuals.

 

My point wasn't the lack of democracy in the United States; it was an observation of the Democratic Party's own cynical pandering.

My position is that I'd rather vote for an egomaniacal capitalist than a lunatic socialist. Why is that so difficult to understand? Did you somehow miss that the first time? The premise of the thread is "what if....NH primary winners meet in the general election", but for some unfathomably idiotic reason you start talking about Nazis and health care.

 

I swear, I'd call you a bonehead but that would be an insult to calcium everywhere.

"Superdelegates" … because @TheDemocrats should not be forced to listen to lowly voters.

 

 

 

 

How Did This Election Get So Weird?


Just a thought: Is Hillary really losing because she’s being “dragged down by scandals?” Because Democrats really find her duplicitous and untrustworthy? Because she’s just plain unlikeable? Or is it because Sanders is just promising a lot more free stuff and class vengeance?

 

I have come to believe it’s the latter. Democrats never gave a wet slap about scandals or corruption within their own party before. They didn’t care that Barack Obama got semi-trucks full of campaign donations from Wall Street and made his Administration an ATM for Goldman-Sachs. It seems odd that they would start caring about that now. I gotta believe it’s about the free stuff.

 

By the way, did you know that even though America’s answer to Evita Peron lost by over 50,000 votes, she gets more New Hampshire Democrat delegates than America’s answer to Salvador Allende? Hillary leaves the state with 15 delegates. Bernie leaves with 13. Overall, Hillary has 394 delegates in hand and Bernie has 42, despite skunking her in New Hampshire and tying her in Iowa.

 

That “Democratic” Party is a Hell of a thing, isn’t it?

Over at the Republican side, the conservatives and the moderate establishment are both losing to a loud, boorish populist. Trump is tapping into the angst of the working class, and in a not-so-different way from Bernie Sanders. Trump also rails against the hedge fund managers, and promising to tax them more, and promising to maintain and expand the welfare state.

 

This is being portrayed in the media as a “populist revolt.” The narrative is that the people who have suffered twenty odd years of wage decline and economic stagnation… the people who have been losing ground economically while politicians and bankers in the DC-Wall Street corridor have built up unprecedented levels of wealth… are turning on the politicians and bankers whose policies (open borders, cheap imports, cronyism) have led to this state of affairs.

 

Do people really just plain hate politicians and bankers? Or do they really hate that the politicians and the bankers seem to be scheming against them to enhance their own wealth?

 

If you want a socialist revolution, this is how you get a socialist revolution.

 

In the end, this election may well come down to a billionaire capitalist supported by the blue collar working class running against an avowed Marxist supported by the trust-fund wealthy.

 

What an odd thing to see happening.

Yeah, I get that.

 

Stepping on your point, the point I was making to Dorkington was that the only people who believe that Democrats are champions of democracy and the people are unmitigated morons; or, you know... registered Democrats.

Yes, and I brought up the several policy positions which are, well, you know, sort of important and you shied away from what you are actually supporting. If I must completely spell it out for you, you would rather have a guy that's going to have a massive round up of millions, instead of a guy that wants health care for all.

 

To put it another way, more government to help people bothers you more than a nazi like government round up of hard working people because they lack papers? I'm so sorry for pointing that out to you :mellow:

This thread now reads like nearly all others. It begins with a thought, Gator weighs in, Gator gets shat upon, Gator mounts a weak response which is counterattacked. Lather, rinse repeat.

Trump wants to round up 11 million people and people are still going to vote for the guy yet I'm the bad one. You are a warped a-hole

The only thing that bothers me is your continued presumption of what positions I do or don't take, especially when based upon an entirely hypothetical question asked by birdog. I give you credit for the persistence you display in reiterating your complete lack of understanding, but I've grown so accustomed to it that it's not even an annoyance anymore.

 

I'll throw you a bone on this one - pay very close attention to an abbreviated version of what I said: I'll always support a capitalist over a socialist.

 

Let it sink in for a minute or two, reread it if necessary.

 

Now, what in that statement relates in any way to healthcare or Nazis?
