Half Of Americans Want To Take The Country Back To The 1950s

Terror recruitment video has Trump excerpt - CNN.com

Donald Trump is indeed featured in a terrorist recruiting ad: DNC 2016 Fact Check

In January, the Somali terrorist group Al-Shabaab (which is affiliated with Al-Qaeda), released a 51-minute recruitment video. In the video, a man said, "Yesterday, America was a land of slavery, segregation, lynching and the Ku Klux Klan. And tomorrow, it will be a land of religious discrimination and concentration camps."

The video then went straight to a clip of Trump, calling for the halt in allowing Muslims into this country.

----------------------------

WTF???????? Turns out Clinton was right. You can watch it yourself.

Can I laugh any harder at your stupid posts.

Are you ever going to make a point that is based in reality.

Keeping muslims out is making concentration camps......you are a sad example of humanity.
 
I graduated elementary school in 1951... high school '55...college 59...active duty USAF 59.....

No tv...no shower...no refrigerator...hand me downs. Only toys were sports equipment. Small Zenith radio...Lone Ranger...the shadow...Lorenzo jones...when a girl marries...the news...a Red Sox or braves game.

Now there's all this shit that the world says you have to have to be happy.

Bullshit.
 
Donald Trump’s supporters are far more likely to be nostalgic.

Americans are close to evenly split on whether the U.S. has gotten better or worse in the past 60 years, according to a new survey from the nonprofit organization PRRI.

Fifty-one percent say that American culture and way of life have worsened since the 1950s, while 48 percent say they have changed for the better.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton supporters are on opposite ends of the spectrum. Seventy-two percent of likely Trump voters think things have changed for the worse, while about 70 person of Clinton voters think things have changed for the better.

“This election has become a referendum on competing visions of America’s future,” Robert P. Jones, PRRI’s CEO, said in a statement. “Donald Trump supporters are nostalgic for the 1950s, an era when white Christians in particular had more political and cultural power in the country, while Hillary Clinton supporters are leaning into ― and even celebrating ― the big cultural transformations the country has experienced over the last few decades.”

Democrats, millennials, black Americans and people who aren’t affiliated with any religion ― all groups that are largely backing Clinton ― are among the most likely to think that things have improved. Republicans, white evangelical Protestants and members of the white working class ― groups that have shown more support for Trump ― are the most likely to express nostalgia for the 1950s.

“We argue over whether we’re divided by race, class, gender or religion,” columnist E.J. Dionne said Tuesday at a panel discussing the poll’s release. “What’s really scary about this poll is that we are divided by all of the following: class, race, gender and religion. We are deeply divided by these things.”

A similar survey question from Pew Research found that Trump and Clinton supporters are also divided over how life has changed specifically for “people like them” ― Clinton supporters say by a 40-point margin that it has gotten better over the past 50 years, but Trump supporters say by a 70-point margin that it’s gotten worse.

I miss a lot of things from the good ole days - and a lot of things I don't miss. It's no surprise that whites in the above chart perceive things as worse. I guess they are afraid - because they'll soon be a minority. Hispanics are slowly reclaiming their stolen birthright and rising up as a powerful political force. We Native Americans are just watching the show.

Like I just commented if that 51% all get out and vote, Hillary loses, however Hillary has other potential problems also, read below, I've bolded the most important parts and the part about black voters and Hillary is in red, she also has problems with younger voters who hate her and still are loyal to Bernie Sanders, of course they won't forget how nasty the Hillary Campaign was to Bernie either.

"The outcome of the U.S. election hinges on one simple question: which electorate will show up to vote?

- Snip -

The polls conducted by ABC, FoxNews, CNN, NBC, CBS and Quinnipiac all use some variant of the 2012 turnout model. But those by Rasmussen, Investors Business Daily and the Los Angeles Times use a newer turnout model that portends an emerging electorate very different from that which elected Barack Obama.

Polls are good at determining how people would vote. But they are not at figuring out who will vote — mainly because the very voters who might, or might not, stay home don’t themselves know what mood will strike them on election day.

Meanwhile, a parallel drama is unfolding in reverse among African-Americans. They suffer from a post-Obama hangover. When Obama first ran in 2008 and, again in 2012, they turned out in record numbers, casting 13 per cent of the U.S. vote (compared to 10 per cent to 11 per cent in normal years). But Clinton is no Obama. While blacks will dutifully vote for her as the Democratic candidate, they cannot summon the enthusiasm for her that they did for him.

Polls suggest that blacks are 28 per cent less enthusiastic about voting than they were in 2012. Since they vote overwhelmingly Democratic, any falloff in turnout comes right out of Hillary’s vote. Trump has been careful not to catalyze fear among African-Americans about his candidacy. His efforts to promote school choice — letting parents send their child to the public or private school of their choice with state funding to pay for it — may not have garnered him a lot of black votes, but it has reassured African-Americans that he is no racist and no threat.


Will blacks cast 10 per cent to 11 per cent of the vote in 2016 or the 13 per cent they cast in 2012? A big part of Clinton’s margin hangs in the balance.

Her problems among younger voters are even more severe. The Democratic Party is almost totally dependent on under-35 voters. In 2012, had all voters been over 35, Mitt Romney would have won. But it is precisely these voters who overwhelmingly backed Bernie Sanders over Clinton in the Democratic primaries. They don’t like her and never have. Yet it is among these voters that she must craft her victory coalition.

Polling suggests that young voters are 10 points less enthusiastic than they were in 2012 and even less than that compared to 2008.

Finally, Clinton faces the threat of defections to the third and fourth candidates — Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party and Jill Stein of the Greens. She has done little to elucidate a positive rationale for her candidacy and is appealing to voters to keep Trump out of the White House. Such a two-candidate, zero sum strategy is vulnerable to defections, impelled by discontent over the Trump-Clinton choice. Again, polling suggests a higher level of intensity among Trump supporters than among Clinton’s backers, making third party defections more likely among Democrats this year.

Put it all together and the potential is still there for a close election and a Trump victory."

Dick Morris: Where Hillary Clinton can lose
 
The biggest difference is corporations used to want to help communities now they want their cheap labor and for communities to wither away. Corporate america ain't it great?
That is not correct, America in that period was a nation of company towns, some were generous but many were horrible places to live where the company owned city hall, this was especially true in the southern textile towns. The 50s had some bright spots up north but the south was still a miserable impoverished flood ridden pox on the American dream. They really did not catch up to the North until the late 60s.

Democrats controlled the South in that period. One can assume with many of the same policies we see in Detroit, Baltimore and Chicago today.

Bull Conner kept them in line though, eh? :laugh:

What has toe sucking got to do with this mans analysis of the situation, you just are obsessed with sexual stuff aren't you? You cannot refute ANYTHING that this man Dick Morris writes, you can't refute it because you do not possess the intelligence to do so.

The Troll can't refute anything in the article, so in Troll fashion funnys things.
 
Donald Trump’s supporters are far more likely to be nostalgic.

Americans are close to evenly split on whether the U.S. has gotten better or worse in the past 60 years, according to a new survey from the nonprofit organization PRRI.

Fifty-one percent say that American culture and way of life have worsened since the 1950s, while 48 percent say they have changed for the better.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton supporters are on opposite ends of the spectrum. Seventy-two percent of likely Trump voters think things have changed for the worse, while about 70 person of Clinton voters think things have changed for the better.

“This election has become a referendum on competing visions of America’s future,” Robert P. Jones, PRRI’s CEO, said in a statement. “Donald Trump supporters are nostalgic for the 1950s, an era when white Christians in particular had more political and cultural power in the country, while Hillary Clinton supporters are leaning into ― and even celebrating ― the big cultural transformations the country has experienced over the last few decades.”

Democrats, millennials, black Americans and people who aren’t affiliated with any religion ― all groups that are largely backing Clinton ― are among the most likely to think that things have improved. Republicans, white evangelical Protestants and members of the white working class ― groups that have shown more support for Trump ― are the most likely to express nostalgia for the 1950s.

“We argue over whether we’re divided by race, class, gender or religion,” columnist E.J. Dionne said Tuesday at a panel discussing the poll’s release. “What’s really scary about this poll is that we are divided by all of the following: class, race, gender and religion. We are deeply divided by these things.”

A similar survey question from Pew Research found that Trump and Clinton supporters are also divided over how life has changed specifically for “people like them” ― Clinton supporters say by a 40-point margin that it has gotten better over the past 50 years, but Trump supporters say by a 70-point margin that it’s gotten worse.

I miss a lot of things from the good ole days - and a lot of things I don't miss. It's no surprise that whites in the above chart perceive things as worse. I guess they are afraid - because they'll soon be a minority. Hispanics are slowly reclaiming their stolen birthright and rising up as a powerful political force. We Native Americans are just watching the show.

Like I just commented if that 51% all get out and vote, Hillary loses, however Hillary has other potential problems also, read below, I've bolded the most important parts and the part about black voters and Hillary is in red, she also has problems with younger voters who hate her and still are loyal to Bernie Sanders, of course they won't forget how nasty the Hillary Campaign was to Bernie either.

"The outcome of the U.S. election hinges on one simple question: which electorate will show up to vote?

- Snip -

The polls conducted by ABC, FoxNews, CNN, NBC, CBS and Quinnipiac all use some variant of the 2012 turnout model. But those by Rasmussen, Investors Business Daily and the Los Angeles Times use a newer turnout model that portends an emerging electorate very different from that which elected Barack Obama.

Polls are good at determining how people would vote. But they are not at figuring out who will vote — mainly because the very voters who might, or might not, stay home don’t themselves know what mood will strike them on election day.


- Snip -

Meanwhile, a parallel drama is unfolding in reverse among African-Americans. They suffer from a post-Obama hangover. When Obama first ran in 2008 and, again in 2012, they turned out in record numbers, casting 13 per cent of the U.S. vote (compared to 10 per cent to 11 per cent in normal years). But Clinton is no Obama. While blacks will dutifully vote for her as the Democratic candidate, they cannot summon the enthusiasm for her that they did for him.

Polls suggest that blacks are 28 per cent less enthusiastic about voting than they were in 2012. Since they vote overwhelmingly Democratic, any falloff in turnout comes right out of Hillary’s vote. Trump has been careful not to catalyze fear among African-Americans about his candidacy. His efforts to promote school choice — letting parents send their child to the public or private school of their choice with state funding to pay for it — may not have garnered him a lot of black votes, but it has reassured African-Americans that he is no racist and no threat.


Will blacks cast 10 per cent to 11 per cent of the vote in 2016 or the 13 per cent they cast in 2012? A big part of Clinton’s margin hangs in the balance.

Her problems among younger voters are even more severe. The Democratic Party is almost totally dependent on under-35 voters. In 2012, had all voters been over 35, Mitt Romney would have won. But it is precisely these voters who overwhelmingly backed Bernie Sanders over Clinton in the Democratic primaries. They don’t like her and never have. Yet it is among these voters that she must craft her victory coalition.

Polling suggests that young voters are 10 points less enthusiastic than they were in 2012 and even less than that compared to 2008.

Finally, Clinton faces the threat of defections to the third and fourth candidates — Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party and Jill Stein of the Greens. She has done little to elucidate a positive rationale for her candidacy and is appealing to voters to keep Trump out of the White House. Such a two-candidate, zero sum strategy is vulnerable to defections, impelled by discontent over the Trump-Clinton choice. Again, polling suggests a higher level of intensity among Trump supporters than among Clinton’s backers, making third party defections more likely among Democrats this year.

Put it all together and the potential is still there for a close election and a Trump victory."

I'm interested in his political analysis, not his personal life, unlike you.

Again you can't even respond to his analysis because you don't have the intelligence to do so, do you idiot?

Theres always good and bad things about every era. I'm sure they miss the good things and not the bad ones. If you go back a little further you'll see there were over a 1000 white Republicans along with over 2000 blacks who were lynched by democrats in white sheets. I'm pretty sure they don't want to repeat those bad things. Most likely
they miss high employment and being able to get a good paying job right out of high school. I guess in reality some things are just impossible to bring back.
 
The biggest difference is corporations used to want to help communities now they want their cheap labor and for communities to wither away. Corporate america ain't it great?
That is not correct, America in that period was a nation of company towns, some were generous but many were horrible places to live where the company owned city hall, this was especially true in the southern textile towns. The 50s had some bright spots up north but the south was still a miserable impoverished flood ridden pox on the American dream. They really did not catch up to the North until the late 60s.

Democrats controlled the South in that period. One can assume with many of the same policies we see in Detroit, Baltimore and Chicago today.

Bull Conner kept them in line though, eh? :laugh:
If you think any southern democrat was a liberal you are fucking retarded. The "Dixiecrats" sounded remarkably like.......you people, especially since Trump came along and stirred up all the little resentments passed down along the generations since all those christian conservatives were dragged kicking and screaming into the 20th century.

Oh dear, that old fairy tale again.

Please provide me a list of those Democrat leaders who switched to the Republican Party following passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Be careful. :bye1:

Dick Morris was a confidante of the Clintons until he fell from grace. He knows the Clintons and their strategies well. He came with Clinton from Arkansas..etc... You try to discredit the messenger to bury the message. Typical leftist operation...

Do you really want to attempt the oldest troll on the internet again? If you really seriously think today's progressive democrat is anything like a 50s-60s dixiecrat you are simply too stupid to live. I prefer to think all you trolls know better but enjoy the incredulous response it always gets when the stupidest political opinion in American history gets trotted out yet again. How about we talk instead about the secession of the southern states and the reconstruction amendments where you take the exact same position all those dixiecrats had on state's rights?
