3. fair point, but
the working poor aren't going to become Democrats while our leaders are selling NAFTA, which is about as Republican an idea as they come.

12. Exactly! And "work(ing) with" is an evolving process that requires
Democrats to identify and orient their actions around Democratic values, Spiritual and Otherwise.

2. An interstate racketeering organization
as evidenced by the widespread election fraud, the laundering of DOD money through dummy corporations and into bribes and contributions to right wing groups, and the circumventing of both the law and common decency at all levels.

They ceased to be a political party in Lee Atwater's time.

13. Truly.
Married into the big bucks Betsy DeVos almost bought the Michigan governorship for her dimwit husband, Dick DeVos de Scamway.

Her brother is Eric "Blackwater" Prince.

They love the GOP because it helps them get richer.

It's not their fault (cough) that it's at the expense of everyone else -- below them.
