Great article.

[Caipirabob]

Is it out of place to suggest he's motivated by the exact same things as any other man?

OH HELL NO!

[HartleyMBaldwin]

When someone excerpts their own material, I very seldom click on the site. I’m glad I did this time, and I look forward to seeing more from you.

His consideration for the vice presidency under Trump and his fiery speech at the Republican Convention certainly provide a clear view as to his “politics”no matter the label.

One fact is true: The Democrats will give us more, and they will take more as well. They’ll take more than money; they’ll take our American Dream. They’ll be our best friend in election season. They’ll speak as smoothly as a 70’s pimp; and pimp us out they will. Like good servants we’ll do their bidding at the polls and return back to our disintegrating neighborhoods none the better.

Good call. No truer words have been spoken since the 1960's, when the wealthy, imperial autocrats known as the Kennedy-clan ascended to their self-anointed throne overseeing the plantation of woe we observe which is the inner-city of Chicago, D.C., et al. The Democrat party has ever since been the party of wealth and power. Watch the Democrats bus people from the inner-cities to protest at Trump rallies. Those bus-riders are getting paid, too. Those are the tactics of the real thugs in this race.

Welcome aboard!

Nice article. Now if we could just get Trump to stick to those issues, he’d be doing a lot better. Those are the issues that got Trump nominated.

[Jim Pelosi]

I’m speaking of Sen. Webb. Most of the articles were written in the 90’s but he still has them on his website, so I’m assuming he feels they’re relevant today.

[Mollypitcher1]

Well, his son has endorsed Trump so maybe he will too. Here and there there are some decent Dems. I’ll certainly check out his site.

Very nicely done! Removing individual candidates and just talking about politicsl philosophies though exposes the great lie perpetuated by the Democrats against blacks. You have one political party whose basic philosophy is that the best thing we can do for blacks is precisely the best thing we can do for anyone, namely provide good educational opportunities, good job opportunities, and safe neighborhoods. You have the opposing party that apparently thinks blacks would be incapable of taking advantage of such opportunities and therefore require various government assistance programs to survive. Remind me which party is racist again.

Ping!

I was going to call "In Before The First Blogpimp Accusation", but...

Thank you for the well written story.
Facts and experiences nicely laid out.

I’m sending this to my daughter,son in law and grandson.
They are a mixed race couple who are solid dem voters.
Maybe this will chink away at their democrat dementia.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

You still can; I made no accusation of any sort. I did point out that the poster had excerpted his own material, true, but I didn’t get all upset like you-know-who. In fact, I was tempted to add IBHG to my comment.

[Albion Wilde]

Welcome to FR, Milo; very much enjoyed your post.

Just a tip to keep you sane and healthy on FR: there are a few people here who take it upon themselves to flame any blog author who does not post his or her entire article to the Forum. They call it “blog pimping” and become very upset; so next time post your whole article here for all to see!

Great writing! Thanks for sharing it!

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

Milo read EVERY word of your essay, enjoyed EVERY word, left a reply at your blog THANK YOU again !!!!!

If we need to go to war maybe we can get the democrat you referred to to give Trump a hand.

To get this country back on track we need Trump.

Although my imediate family never had a political party, i had three older brothers and two older sisters who married into democrat families.

As a result i was bombarded with enough rascist hatred to last a life time, during my school days which was not all that many as i only got through the seventh grade i only had a couple friends who never got involved in rascist jokes and slander. these friends later turned out to be republicans.

I am 80 years old so what i lacked in school education i more than made up for in practical experience, its kind of like the Hank Snow song: ive been every where.

When ever i heard rascist jokes i always thought of my very few friends who never made those kind of jokes and it always made me do some thinking on the subject.

At the same time i have never understood political correctness and have always hated it which is why it did not take me long to take up with Trump.

He has that dry sense of humor which tells me that if he believes something is right or wrong he will say it regardless of which race or ethnic group it is comming from.

Trumps ideas of how to bring back the industry to America is right on target, it is what our founders had in mind.

I believe the Democrats and the republican establishment deliberatly drove the industry elswhere, but why ? i don`t know except to bring in socialism.

Thank you for your service to our country, and God bless.
