VOTE: Deny democratic socialism

| March 27, 2016 9:00 PM

The educated Progressive Liberal elite; those with the Ivy league degrees, who have thought all this through, are promising you they can bring about a humane, a fair, a collectively redistributed “Utopian” society. They must convince the masses of our public school, new media saturated undereducated to “democratically” vote for those who promise to take from the haves, the “Robber Baron” corporations, and the filthy uber rich and any other person or entity that has “too much,” and righteously redistribute it to those who simply cannot make a life for themselves any other way.

To bring in “Democratic Socialism” we must open our borders wide. We must proclaim and codify “Voter Rights” by having no requirement for proving citizenship, or even a simple ID card to vote.

As it stands, our Constitutional three pronged separation of powers is nearly destroyed.

In my opinion, the leading “Republican” candidate, were he to become president, would really not be much different than our current “Hope and Change” leader. Just the other side of the coin of the narcissist we have today, with the pen and the phone who’ll simply bulldoze his way to “Make America great again” by the “Art of the Deal...”

I don’t want Republican, I don’t want Democrat or Social Democrat. What’s wrong with our U.S. Constitution? What’s the problem with the original intent of this most wonderful and individual liberating document? I am paying close attention to those candidates who articulate the Constitution with passion. Anything less, I do not believe our nation has a chance to survive without.
