They're not creatures... They're cretins. Creatures have functioning brains.
BINGO!
Which one?

Hey, Pete.
How are the poverty and crime rates in South Bend?
""We’re either going to be the country that was bequeathed to previous generations and to you, or we’re going to be something else," . . . valley of decision . . . ." - Steve Bannon
He's correct.
Below are the words of the Author of our Declaration of Independence and President of the U. S., Thomas Jefferson, in his 1801 Inaugural Address. Jefferson laid out what might be considered to be an appropriate description of the philosophy and role of an American presidency:
(Excerpt, "Our Ageless Constitution," p. xiv, reformatted)
"Let us, then, with courage and confidence pursue our own Federal and Republican principles, our attachment to union and representative government. Kindly separated by nature and a wide ocean from the exterminating havoc of one quarter of the globe; too high-minded to endure the degradations of the others; possessing a chosen country, with room enough for our descendants to the thousandth and thousandth generation;- entertaining a due sense of our equal right to the use of our own faculties, to the acquisitions of our own industry, to honor and confidence from our fellow-citizens, resulting not from birth, but from our actions and their sense of them;
- enlightened by a benign religion, professed, indeed, and practiced in various forms, yet all of them inculcating honesty, truth, temperance, gratitude, and the love of man;
- acknowledging and adoring an overruling Providence, which by all its dispensations proves that it delights in the happiness of man here and his greater happiness hereafter
—with all these blessings, what more is necessary to make us a happy and a prosperous people?
- Still one thing more, fellow-citizens—a wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned.
- This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our felicities.
"About to enter, fellow-citizens, on the exercise of duties which comprehend everything dear and valuable to you,
- it is proper you should understand what I deem the essential principles of our Government, and consequently those which ought to shape its Administration. I will compress them within the narrowest compass they will bear, stating the general principle, but not all its limitations.
- Equal and exact justice to all men, of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political;
- peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none;
- the support of the State governments in all their rights, as the most competent administrations for our domestic concerns and the surest bulwarks against antirepublican tendencies;
- the preservation of the General Government in its whole constitutional vigor, as the sheet anchor of our peace at home and safety abroad;
- a jealous care of the right of election by the people—a mild and safe corrective of abuses which are lopped by the sword of revolution where peaceable remedies are unprovided;
- absolute acquiescence in the decisions of the majority, the vital principle of republics, from which is no appeal but to force, the vital principle and immediate parent of despotism;
- a well disciplined militia, our best reliance in peace and for the first moments of war, till regulars may relieve them;
- the supremacy of the civil over the military authority;
- economy in the public expense, that labor may be lightly burthened;
- the honest payment of our debts and sacred preservation of the public faith;
- encouragement of agriculture, and of commerce as its handmaid;
- the diffusion of information and arraignment of all abuses at the bar of the public reason;
- freedom of religion; freedom of the press, and freedom of person under the protection of the habeas corpus, and trial by juries impartially selected.
These principles form the bright constellation which has gone before us and guided our steps through an age of revolution and reformation. The wisdom of our sages and blood of our heroes have been devoted to their attainment. They should be the creed of our political faith, the text of civic instruction, the touchstone by which to try the services of those we trust; and should we wander from them in moments of error or of alarm, let us hasten to retrace our steps and to regain the road which alone leads to peace, liberty, and safety." - Thomas Jefferson, First Inaugural

“You know that he knew that slavery was wrong.
And yet, he did.”
I’ll bet that Mr. Wallace doesn’t posit this at his town hall tonight, “You know that homosexuality is wrong.
And yet, you do it.”
That is an interesting point. You know I often wondered if Trump wrote a letter to the Danbury Baptists that there was no such thing as separation of church and state. That the true meaning was that the government could not establish thier own religion like the Church of England, if it would hold the same power as Jeffersons letter did to the Danbury Baptists.
Jefferson knew that slavery was destined to be a flashpoint for the country in the future. In later life, Jefferson articulated more clearly (see letter to J. Holmes and his “wolf by the ears” remark) that slavery was morally questionable. But in that time period, it simply was not possible to act on that belief given the political and economic realities of the era.
Buttigieg is pandering to the far left - either that or he is willing to ignore the substantial contribution that Jefferson made in the founding of the United States and its early survival.
Who’s next - Washington?
Buttigieg would be advised to read “The Wolf by the Ears: Thomas Jefferson and Slavery” by J.C. Miller - highly recommended.
Early Islamic history Muhammad worshiped Allah and his three daughters. Today Islam wants to erase their history by destroying statues of Al-Uzza, Al-Lat and Menat. Then claiming the versus in the Qur'an that Muhammad talked affectionately about Allah's three daughters was the work of the devil tricking Muhammad.
Today democrats can't accept their own history and must destroy there own history for the same reasons. It doesn't fit their narrative today.
Eventually Islam will destroy the Great pyramids for the same reason Democrats will destroy Mount Rushmore.
Where’s all the resident south bashers here?
You cowards
They should have been zotted along with their high priests over the years

And so many others
Where’s our resident south basher brigade
When does she address the flag?
It’s an hour long video.
So we would get rid of Thomas Jefferson and the other founding fathers because they are white? Why not get rid of Lewis and Clark, because they invaded the Native American lands!
Lets erase this fags legacy before it starts. Even his own family says he is unfit to be POTUS.

Isn’t it funny how the homosexuals want to hide anything that makes them feel guilty or inferior?
Looks just like Mr. Bean!
