Topic: To Americans: I voted. Did you? | |
---|---|
I did, all red. I can't reach low enough to vote for a democrat.

I voted for the best candidates based on the pamphlet that came in the mail. some were dems and some were reps, blind party loyalty = political blindness and uninformed choices.

If dems weren't trying to hurt our country they would recieve more votes. Most Americas don't want open borders and higher taxes. So they get the illegal vote, people who are exploiting illegals vote, and people who aren't paying taxes vote.

To restate, blind party loyalty = political blindness and bad choices.
Most americans, (dem and rep) dont want borders or higher taxes. Illegals still cannot legally vote and people who are citizens have a right to vote, regardless of financial status, as is constitutionally sound. |

It isn't blind loyalty. Trust me. With all the stunts dems have pulled to hurt Trump's attempt to fix immigration, trade deficits, etc. We won't vote for them because of their actions. For instance; if Stacy Abrams couldn't pay her taxes, then she should understand being over taxed. But she is campaigning on what she thinks will get her elected by people who look like her. I see her as a phoney. Dems need to have some self respect. What happened to kavanaugh was a disgrace. Maxine waters is a disgrace. What happened to Sarah Sanders in that restaurant was a disgrace. America doesn't need people like the dems in office.

Sounds like blind loyalty that only sees the problems belong to one side exclusively, or that one side has ONLY one type of person with all the same interests ,, but thats just me.
Kavanaugh disgraced himself. He, being a judge, should have been compassionate and understanding that a potential assault victims allegations were being investigated, instead of taking it personally and suggesting it was not worthy of being investigated. Maxine Waters is the underdog's Trump, but with more experience and connection to common folk. What has happened with businesses profiling is a disgrace, both when it happens to well knowns like Sanders, or less well knowns like black realtors meeting at Starbucks. That is not a DEM thing, but an AMERICAN thing, from both sides and not very discouraged by our current POTUS. AMerica doesnt need to promote ignorance, bigotry, or division, or leaders who do. |

I've been in stores and had to wait to pay because the cashier had his eyes on blacks in the store. The thing is the cashier wasn't white. Blacks burning down the neighborhood didn't help bigotry at all. It reinforced it. Black business owners were out trying to protect their business. I saw on the news where a group of black men guarded a white man's business around the clock because he had always given them work and helped them. It's sad that you don't see the bigotry of your own people.

We dont need bigots in positions of power over those for which they are bigoted against. It so happens the history of this country started with and has continued to mostly have white men in positions of power over the rest of us, so it is THEIR bigotry that gets a special spotlight. This doesnt mean the average citizen of EVERY race cannot also hold bigoted views, it just doesnt have as far reaching an impact in the big picture. |

This doesnt mean the average citizen of EVERY race cannot also hold bigoted views, it just doesnt have as far reaching an impact in the big picture. Obama's bigotry had a huge impact when he condone the rioting in Missouri. From what I see Trump is hated for being a rich white man. For instance; he said he wants merit based immigration. The dems said that means he only wants whites to migrate to America. It was the dems who called people of color unskilled enough to come here. Not Trump. We still have unemployed people during a time of employers struggling to get workers. The problem is some people are unemployable. We need skilled workers. That could be anything from welders, builders, engineers, etc. People of any color can learn a skill. I'm learning a new skill at my job to make myself more employable. America doesn't need more dead weight. We have baby boomers retiring and collecting from the system they paid into. |

The dems said that means he only wants whites to migrate to America. It was the dems who called people of color unskilled enough to come here. Not Trump. more imagined history: This is what Obama ACTUALLY said regarding rioting in Missouri: Obama condemned the rioting and violence broke out in Missouri Monday after a grand jury failed to indict a police officer in the shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown in August. "Burning buildings, torching cars, destroying property, putting people at risk -- that's destructive, and there's no excuse for it. Those are criminal acts, and people should be prosecuted for it," he said Tuesday in Chicago. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2014/11/25/obama-ferguson-protests-immigration-speech/70111056/ From what I see, Trump is hated for any number of reasons, maybe by some because he is republcan, maybe by some because of his wealth or race, and probably by most because he is merely getting BACK the hate he puts out. I am a dem, I never called people of color unskilled to come here. Merit is a term that needs details because of how subjectively it can be applied. |

Michael Brown was a thug who started a fight and assaulted a business owner over drugs. He was walking in the street and citizens called the police. He then assaulted the police officer and the officer kill him because he was out of control. I understand the store owner tried to cheat him out of his dope. But that's thug life. The officer should have never had to go to trial. Those protestors want to turn America into a nation of lawlessness so they can steal and do dope all day without being bothered by the cops. Look at Chicago. The cops are sitting back letting them kill each other. I really can't say I blame them.

No, they dont want lawlessness, they also dont want cops paid to be executioners. we have a justice system, and everyone is entitled to their day in court. But this is going so far off tangent into the usual 'whats wrong with blacks' rhetoric, its made me tired enough to actually get some sleep. |

So you are claiming brown didn't assault the officer? Cops don't stop just because the criminal loses power over them. Officers are trained to fight. Brown was consider a giant. I would have shot him if he had assaulted me because I'm a lot smaller and he is still a threat. It takes a split second to turn or turn back. I'm not arguing this uncivilized crap with you all day. Cause and result is clear.

How can we seriously call this an election..so we turn a blind eye to what was the next best thing to just shooting the opposing candidate..This was not any kind of a legitimate election..We should all be outraged at what we have just witnessed..and everyone is like .."How about the election"..Has evil taken over and we are just too afraid to say anything.. This wasn't any kind of a legitimate election by NO means..don't act as if it is..its a FKN BAD JOKE..unreal why isn't anyone saying what it really is..How can we even accept this as if it was LEGITIMATE..as we can see for ourselves all that wasn't right with this election.. So don't ask me what I think of this election..because we haven't had one yet..unless you consider this CHARADE an election..because I SURE IN THE HELL DON'T..TOTAL BS is all it was .. THIS ISN"T AMERICA..it's a THIRD WORLD NATION IN THE MAKING..WE need to start standing up against this EVIL that is slowly taking over OUR WORLD ELECTION MY ARSE.. UNITED WE STAND...divided we fall WHERE WE GO ONE..WE GO ALL |

My vote doesn't always follow along
party lines. I will, however, vote for the most conservative candidates on the ballot. |
|
|

I will vote for Whomever I feel is the Best candidate to work for the good of Our Country.
Our Country would be a lot better off, if we didn't have all these past officials doing everything they can to destroy this Country with their Socialism logic. Mainly. Leftist. |
