The GOP is the “Seinfeld” Party - A party about nothing.
I sure as heck don’t know what they stand for anymore. At least the Democrats do stand for something, even though I vehemently disagree with them.
That is the problem with the GOP, they think morons like that should be catered to and drive away 10 voters for every young mushhead voter gained.
I agree that if the Republicans were in favor of not putting roadblocks in the way of small business creation and self employment, it would attract a lot of younger (and older) voters. Being a corporate slave without even the benefit of job security or being a globalist/banking/elitist sleazeball just doesn’t have the appeal it used to.
But too many Republicans have no interest in educating. They act like anyone not born understanding free markets is an idiot and a lost cause not worth spending time on.
If you don't like my reaction to your comments, don't try to 'fix' my posts or thoughts.
Apart from the fact that you were not reacting to one of my comments . . . .
Too late . . . this thread is about China, now.
If you’re not a democrat when young you don’t have a heart and if you’re not a Republican when older you don’t have a brain.
There’s no reason for Republicans to go after the ‘youth vote’... It’s as big a waste of our time as democrats trying to get the ‘gun owner’ vote.
When the young get married and have a child they’ll start looking to us... that’s when we care. That’s when we move toward them.
What a yawner. This guy is Karl Rove’s mini-me.
Media sure is giving these losers attention.
Ronald Reagan won 2 landslides by being an outspoken Conservative.
Want to win landslide elections, stop with the squishes as candidates.
As the saying goes:
If you're not a democrat when young you don't have a heart and if you're not a Republican when older you don't have a brain.

Hard to say for sure but we DO know who got to them first don't we?
Reagan was also able to articulate Conservative Principles in a manner that connected and registered with the Average Person. Reagan sold the benefits of Conservative Principles and painted a picture of an America that was proud to get up in the morning, go out, and win.
Find a candidate who can do that and you win.
Sorry, doesn't sound like much of a plan.
“And get off my lawn!!!” Thanks for your perspective gramps.
Geez, do you even know anyone under 21? Kids are stupid, and kids do stupid things. But they grow up eventually. And can be influenced.
Illegal Alien Amnesty, Homosexual Special Rights, are not Free Market.
This article has nothing to do with free markets. Once again, another liberal trying to push their agenda under the guise of “free market”
Unfortunately, these days, anyone mentioning “free market” seems to have no clue what one really is.
And to add to my comment #33: we shouldn’t go after young voters, and simply wait for another Reagan to come along? Doesn’t sound like much of a plan, either.
Send a few NRA members to a democrat gathering and prime them to put out a bunch of bullsh*t about how they're 'thinking about becoming democrats' if only _____________ then fill in the blank (with whatever a focus group says might appeal to democrats)... AND GET DEMOCRATS TO WASTE THEIR TIME AND MONEY ...
Democrats are more than willing to hire young people to pull the wool over the eyes of idiot Republicans ... they do it all the time. Fake people, fake letters to the editor, fake letters to our GOP leaders... fake calls to Rush, Hannity, and Levin...
There's a reason Democrats don't waste their time tilting at windmills - or going after the 'gun owner ' vote it's because they're not gullible like our leaders.
You’re the expert: you appear to believe that the “free market” has something to do with amnesty, and homo rights. /s
Why aren't democrats wasting their time and money trying to get the ‘NRA gun owner vote’? I'll tell you why - because they have NO CHANCE of getting much of that vote. It would costs too much per vote.
That's the same as us going after the youth vote. Besides young people grow up and become more responsible. That's when we court them...
Exactly...most who hawk “Free Market” today would scream if you took their Big Government Statism away
Look at all the fools who still push Free Trade. Free Traders have surrendered our national authority to preserve our free markets by joining us with World Trade Organization, UN, and NAFTA...which sets laws and rules that the US has to follow...with no representation from any elected official
Taxation without representation was one of the tenets of our American Revolution. Our Funding Fathers are rolling in their graves over how Free Traders (who are never Free Market) have surrendered our economics to non-representative governmental bodies
This liberal kid in Montana thinks gays and illegals are Free Market. Whats next, Child Molesters are Free Market (Mohammed would like that)
