CNN hosted a town hall on Monday in Mississippi with presidential candidate and Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) where she answered questions on a range of issues, including the Mississippi flag, which features in its field a Confederate symbol. “Mississippi’s the only state in the country that still has the Confederate battle emblem on the state flag — do you think Mississippi should adopt a new flag?” Jake Tapper, CNN anchor who moderated the town hall, asked Warren.

“Warren replied with one word — ‘Yes’ — and was met with loud applause from the crowd,” CNN reported on its event.

...

CNN also cited the deadly protest and counter-protest over the removal of a statue of Confederate President Robert E. Lee in Charlottesville, West Virginia, in 2017 that attracted Neo-Nazis and Antifa and resulted in the death of a counter-protester.

Another attendee at the town hall asked:

As a presidential hopeful, do you have any plans on addressing the removal, or lack thereof, of the reminders of this nation’s dark past, or have any plans on preserving the nation’s history in a way that explains it in a more educational sense versus showing praise to the losing side?

CNN reported Warren said she would “support removing Confederate celebrations from federal land and putting them in museums, where they belong.

Yesterday in a FR thread I read 220+. So many lunatics , so little time .

[xrmusn]

This is the most self-destructing field of Democrat candidates in the history of anything.
= = = = = = = = = =

That is what makes it so ‘exciting’.

For the FIRST TIME EVER, I am waiting with bated breath for the D Debates

Now that D Brazil is ‘working’ for FOX the DNC may reconsider using Fox for the debates.

I really wish there were a way to slip Cortez and the two muzzies into the hall....maybe THEY can be the commentators or -better yet - sign on as the R reviewers.

So many possibilities and the best one will be to see how they tell 8 or so of the idiots that there is no room for them on the stage....

OTOH, Fox can invite the DNC non invitees to debate at the same time....

That flag represents Mississippi’s history.
A true history unlike your lying ass there deary.

“Warren replied with one word — ‘Yes’ — and was met with loud applause from the crowd,” CNN reported on its event.

Why are Warren and other Democrats copying Stalinist tactics to rewrite history? Do they want to demonstrate that they have the power to destroy?

This trend is disturbing.

"Stand Watie was born in Oothcaloga, Cherokee Nation (near present-day Rome, Georgia) in 1806. The son of Oo-wa-tie, a full-blooded Cherokee, and Susanna Reese, who was of half-Cherokee, half-European heritage"
"Stand Watie was the last remaining Confederate general in the field during the Civil War."
"The only Native American to be fully promoted to the rank of General in the Civil War"

Get rid of confederacy celebrations.
No more videos of the crumbling twin towers.
Do not say the name Brenton Tarrant.
Anyone seen Leon? He was here just a few minutes ago...

That should really appeal to Mississippians.

Is there any part of our lives LIBERALS don’t want to control?
