[64met]

Did the messiah mention this? nothing wrong with our country, but yet right outside the DNC.

Bernie Sanders tells @bpolitics breakfast w/reporters he'll return to the Senate as an Independent, not a Dem: 'I was elected as an Ind.'

This is truly bizarre, but the Democrats have stolen the best parts of the GOP. That's been the message all week. They've stolen the rhetoric of American exceptionalism as the GOP repeatedly claims that America has lost its greatness. They’ve become the party that supports the military, while the GOP candidate insults veterans by name. They've taken up the mantle of family values without requiring the albatross of Christian ideology. Suddenly, because the RNC completely abandoned these themes, it's the Democrats who are the party of patriotism, the military, family values, and the Reaganesque principle of American exceptionalism.

They've left the GOP nothing but existing now as the party of Trump, and it was absolutely fascinating to watch this happen.

And yet the republicans gave a fair election. While the democrats...........

My interpretation of the entire DNC convention can be summed up into one word: PANDERING

It's always been my opinion those democrats who hold office do so upon the backs of the poor and less fortunate in our country....with the myth that they are the party of salvation. When in reality they are nothing more than a gang of elitist snobs and bigots.

I totally understand that in our country there are many who feel disenfranchised.....and they look at these politicians as personal flotation devices. They want and need to cling to something for spiritual support. You could even say cults are formed. And "movements".

But at the end of the day all that counts is getting in office....getting the votes....holding power.....and making money.

Despite all the words said last night....this is what I saw, sorry to say.....

That's rich, given that PANDERING is the basis of Trump's entire campaign.

What's truly bizarre is watching someone come to this conclusion of the matter.

It's all fairy tales and fantasy.

FIFY
It's not pandering when one agrees with the candidate.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

you seem bitter.

Not bitter at all.

the "empty suit" gave a very inspired and optimistic speech last night,

He virtually always does except when it involves cops or guns.

maybe that will cheer you up and make you feel a little better about our country.

You must have me confused with someone who thinks that if Candidate X doesn't win, the whole country dies.

I actually don't view it that way at all.

In point of fact, I was mostly joshing in reply to what had to be a light attempt at humor.

I don't agree.

While I do agree that in essence ALL politicians pander as part of their DNA.....the point I was making is (to use your words) "the entire basis" of the Democratic Party is to pander to those who feel disenfranchised....either because of their skin color...their gender identity....or their income inequality.

But the irony is.....all these Democratic politicians REALLY care about is themselves. And they feel that THEY are the entitled ones...the elitists...who can bring about HOPE and CHANGE for those disenfranchised masses.

I find it disgusting and sad.

You can say what you want about Trump but it doesn't affect my sentiments as stated above.

 

[92tide]

It might if it were anywhere close to being true, rather than an epic fail...but all in all, not surprising or unexpected...

keep preaching. you have a fairly large choir that is eager to listen

 

[cuda.1973]

Yeah, especially the part about hillary being more qualified for the office than any person ever...

Well, if you compare her to the putz who is in there now..................no, wait, even that is a stretch.

We must agree to disagree, then.

 

[cuda.1973]

We must agree to disagree, then.

Then why don't you stick to more pleasant things.......................like "Almond Whirl" or "Lime Creme"? Both are very popular, I am led to believe.

1. Donald Trump is not fit to be president.
2. I am allergic to almonds.

OK I can agree to that..lol.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

it is truly disturbing that people really believe that.

 

[jthomas666]

it is truly disturbing that people really believe that.

Not nearly as disturbing as people believing that Donald Trump is more qualified than her to be president.

 

[bama_wayne1]

Not nearly as disturbing as people believing that Donald Trump is more qualified than her to be president.

According to the FBI she is too dumb to have intent to break the laws that she broke. If she is that dumb after living in the White House for as long as she did and then being a senator and secretary of state, my dog is more qualified. She'll probably store the nuclear codes on her facebook account.

 

[jthomas666]

I'm sure you have a quote (from the FBI, not Trump) verifying that statement.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

My right butt check is more qualified than either one of these two idiots that are running.

 

[Bazza]

I don't look at it from the perspective of who is most qualified.

I look at it as who I feel will do their best to help the country.

Qualifications can mean many different things.....but having qualifications alone doesn't mean that person will do what I perceive as what's best for the country.
