Jesus, I was a lifelong democrat from 1978, My first vote was for Carter. And up till Obama, even. The cracks formed when I realized democrats voted for someone along race lines, not because he/she was competent or fit. My brother proudly proclaimed: I VOTED for Obama! A white democrat liberal Californian that was soon to lose his job and home...that changed my mind damned quick about ******* liberal Democrats. The democrats don't fix problems, NO, they appease, they enable. You better figure that before they come to your town and tempt you with their lies.
