Just admit you are a democrat and stop this deception of being this thoughtful middle of the road guy.
I am 71 and older than you and I have read and I have learned longer than you. More importantly I have understood what I have read, saw and participted in. I now understand how totally fucked up the democratic party has become. Was there to watch it happen from the 60's to the present. How it has been taken over by marxist socialist leftist that want to in your buddy Obama's words "fundamentally transform America". America does need to be "fundamentally transformed". The fact that you cant see that at your age is hard to believe. Still totally puzzeled as to why you hate Trump. You post like you are a patriotic conservative American yet dispise Trump as he governs like a conservative.
As I said you don’t bother to learn. Your comment “your buddy Obama” is wrong and insulting. I would call it a lie but I think you’re too wrapped up in your ignorance to bother to look back. There was no one more critical of Obama’s actions and philosophy while he was in office. There was no one more critical of HRC than I was/am. There was no one more critical of the leftists in and around the democrat party. You caca owe me an apology. As to Trump, opposition to the leftists and support of Trump are not one and the same. Trump DOES NOT govern as a conservative. I don’t think he governs at all but beyond that his every action is anti democratic and it complete opposite of republican traditions and values. I will not sacrifice my principles for a false conservative who is single handedly destroying the conservative movement.
I am wiser than you young duckling. Left the democratic party in 1974 thats common sense and didn't go back because of experience plus common sense which equals wisdom.
Sorry Charlie I think my post is very thoughtful and honest. I have experience guided by common sense and a love for the ideals of America. I have watched the democrats morf from what they were in the 50's to what they are today; a fucked up marxist socialist America hateing bunch of malcontents. Were you around in the 50's? Whats your life experience to share with us?
I was born in the 60s so no, I wasn't around in the 50s but I have seen that morphing you are talking about
