Single Issue Voters & the threat to democracy in America

[Wry Catcher]

Let's face it, single issue voters are prey to demagogues and charlatans, unable or unwilling to consider major issues beyond their usual obsessions, i.e. God, Guns, Gays, Abortion and taxes.

They are prey to political operatives and their propaganda, demagogues and charlatans; they never seem to consider the rights, needs and health of their fellow citizens, future generations or our air, water and soil

Easily convinced by the above predators, whose motivation is money and power, they refuse to consider alternative opinions which benefit all of the citizens of the United States.

What is worse is their continued attack on anyone, Pol or Citizen, who fail to support the current iteration of conservatism; The election of Donald Trump has created more division among We the People than at anytime other than during the Civil War; his elitist, bigoted, hateful and dishonest behavior has infected his most partisan supporters who echo each other with BIG LIES, and in print and tweets assassinate the character of all who question his behavior.

Man and women of good will are the few among the swamp creatures who infect The District. It is up to each voter to go to the polls and think outside the box, and not listen to what the predators say, but what those who in office have done, or not done.

The election of Obama created more division among We the People than at anytime other than during the Civil War and then the election of Trump compounded it. You tards on the left are just as responsible for the division in this country as the tards on the right you are pointing your finger at and this rant of yours is a perfect example of stoking that division.

And now you're adding to the division. You don't behave any differently than the people you constantly bitch about.

Two sides of the same coin.

Bullshit, the only thing wrong which Obama did was to be born non-white. By being elected TWICE he enraged insecure white men (mostly, not to leave out W.T. and the drunk cat, et al) and proved that a man of color could govern effectively.

Even when the Republican Party and Alt Right worked as hard could to make him fail Of course they failed in that too since his leadership brought are economy back from the brink of the abyss, he repaired working relationships with our allies and worked toward making all of our citizens equal before the law; enabling all citizens to believe they too could achieve American Dream, notwithstanding their color, creed, gender or gender identification.

Of course the Alt. Right and Republican Party spent 8+ years attacking President Obama for becoming President and for seeking equal rights and equal opportunities for all of our citizens. His election alone brought forth the bigots, racists, misogynists and all around haters, who reject the values so well expressed in the Preamble to our Constitution.

Trump the birthers and the alt-R didn't like Obama because he wasn't white. He could have been Joe the Plumber and they'd have jeered him.

However, Obama did carry enough of those rural Pa, Mich, Wisc ... not to mention Indiana and Ohio and Iowa .... rural counties to carry the states. He did it because even then a lot of white knew the gop abandoned them for big money. In his second term, Obama became more willing to talk about race. There is racism. But Michael Brown was a criminal, and a working class rural kid with drug issues is closer to a black than to a rich white kid

PS even then Hillary wins if she actually talks to those people and tells them how their crops can be worth more and how working a counter can pay more ...

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Democrat politicians and pundits relentlessly mine the divide.

Hillary "All that red in the middle, where Trump won, what the map doesn't show you is that I won the places that represent two-thirds of America's gross domestic product. So I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward." “You know, you didn’t like black people getting rights. You didn’t like women y’know, getting jobs, you don’t want, y’know, see that Indian American succeeding more than you are, whatever your problem is, I’m gonna solve it.”

Hillary just can't understand why the people who the Democrats hate would not vote for her.

Democracy IS the threat to America, and your OP cites one of many reasons why. Even if the authority voters hope to control was valid - which it's not - they are certainly not fit to control it.

If men were worthy to wield authority, they would be Gods.

1. ALL I ever see you doing, is attacking people.


2. I never attack anyone just for not supporting "the current iteration of conservatism". Especially since I don't think you can really call Trump a conservative.

There are men and women of good will worthy to make laws and create policies; unfortunately they cannot compete with the single interests of those with the money to pay to play, and don't contribute to the campaign of those who won't do their bidding, they will fund someone who will.

If "democracy IS the threat to America'', in your opinion, what method of governance should replace it?

It seems our government, even though democratically elected, has been governed by Plutocrats - for no one can doubt that what we live under at this moment in our history an Oligarchy.
