Then why are you so divisive? I don't mean that in a mean way because I know you are a good guy, but if we look at the past the model has been made.

This is why I hate party conventions. I'm sure that each party has people who would make decent (if not good) Presidents, but they get don't get the support of the special interests therefore the party snubs them. The party end up nominating the least common denominator, and the American people is forced to vote on the leftover slag.

...unless you vote independent

My father-in-law and mother-in-law couldn't attend their parties conventions, year after year [ I wonder why they were never allowed to participate ]

Higher and higher taxes failed to raise additional revenues
because wealthier taxpayers could evade such taxes while the middle
class—and its taxpaying capacity—were exterminated.

We are there, right now.

What does it say that most of the 10 poorest states are Republican?

FROM CNN's Jack Cafferty:

As the Republican race for the White House heats up, here's something the GOP can't be too comfortable with:

Most of the 10 poorest states in the country are Republican.

Mississippi is the poorest... followed by Arkansas, Tennessee, West Virginia, Louisiana, Montana, South Carolina, Kentucky, Alabama and North Carolina

"Higher and higher taxes failed to raise additional revenues

class—and its taxpaying capacity—were exterminated"

Sounds like a quote from the fall of the Roman empire, or was the the decline of the British empire ...

It's from "The Fall of American Civilization" circa 2051

Why would the GOP be uncomfortable with this? It flies in the face of the "rich only care about the rich" dichotomy.

Besides, poor people tend to have more common sense and are used to seeing thru bullshit. They only put up with bullshit if they are getting free stuff.

Why would poor people want to vote for Republicans ?

It is still asking if I want to stay on page [ only have to click it as many times as it takes to get auto-saved ] 12 this time

My Father-in-Law was living in a centennial farm house, had his own hangar and Cessna Skyhawk along with a runway. The next road over had his last name on it.

The Republican party never let them come to conventions ?

They never changed their affiliation.

Probably freed up his time so he could go abroad as much as they did.

Some of you guys crying over O'Bamacare crack me up. The real concern over out of control spending with ZERO accountability falls directly at the feet of the American Industrial Complex. The shit they waste money on is disgusting.
