Pat Caddell: Voters ‘Are So Angry,’ They ‘Want Their Country Back’
Breitbart ^ | February 9,2016 | DAN RIEHL

Posted on 02/09/2016 8:55:12 AM PST by Hojczyk

Speaking of voters, said Caddell, They are so angry … I shouldn’t just say angry, they are so alienated from their government in a democracy … they are so believing in the corruption, numbers in the eighty-percentile and higher, they believe the country is in decline and the political class just doesnt care.

Citing voters concerns for both themselves and their childrens futures, said Caddell, “They have really disdained both political parties now.” Caddell said the great American middle has become about 60 percent of the electorate who vote non-partisan and want real change.

“And they want their country back, he added. This is the swells versus the American people, he added. when you get to economics it’s the ‘global citizen types’ who believe in free trade – it’s all great for them – and the rest of the people in this country who are really taking it in the neck when it comes to jobs and wages.”

Caddell pointed out that only Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT)16% and Donald Trump are willing to say that they see that America is in decline, which Caddell feels resonates with approximately 80 percent of American voters today. As for Trump invoking a populism and nationalism that perhaps runs contrary to the traditional Wall Street-aligned view held by the Republican establishment, Trump has essentially borrowed the Republican Party to run for president and they don’t much like it,

When asked if he was concerned about the suggestion that Republican front-runner Donald Trump comes with an authoritarian streak that should give Constitutionalists pause, caddell said he knew Trump personally and wasn’t concerned. He cited the administration of Andrew Jackson as one in which the American people took their government back for themselves, as opposed to the “swells” mentioned above as perhaps a more fitting comparison.

Did anyone see Caddell a couple nights ago, upset because Iowa Democrat Party refuses to release the actual vote count for PIAPS and Bernie? They told him it’s their “policy” not to release numbers.

Then he pulls out a piece of paper and holds it up showing actual count of Democrats voting for each candidate in 2012.

The man was so livid he was practically shaking.

I’m not angry, hell no. I can’t wait to turn my country and my life over to a geriatric Communist whose people will tell me I have too many options when it comes to toothpaste and toilet paper. I just love sitting here and having my moral superiors tell me I’m racist, homophobic, transphobic, cis-normative, too rich and too pale. I love watching my flag dragged through the dirt. I’m a freaking masochist who lives for pain, but no, I’m not angry a bit. Why does every stupid, arrogant, vicious, sanctimonious, totalitarian moron keep ASKING ME WHY I’M ANGRY?

There was a clip from the Political Insiders over the weekend and Pat identified it even more succinctly.

Key takeaway: The American people want their sovereignty back - they are not looking for just a leader, they are looking to take a role in their own country.

[In other words, people want to be in control of their own gov’t/ votes; no more stolen elections.]

Pat Caddell says we are seeing a new paradigm. The only two who use that term (nation in decline) are Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.

3:37 Min mark Pat Caddell begins speaking about politicians lying.
Also what they are looking for the truth

At 3:45 min mark - The American people want their sovereignty back - they are not looking for just a leader, they are looking to take a role in their own country.

He continues and says he heard Dan Balz in an interview the day before when asked about the political center, he made the observation that Democrats moving far to the left and Republicans moving far right. He (Dan Balz) said there is no center. Pat disagreed and said that the center was gigantic.

Well said.

We are simply tired of being told we are racists an xenophobes when the evidence of the malfeasance of the failure of the GOPe and the democRATS is obvious to anyone with an IQ over 70.

We resent being told they will do what we have elected them to do, and when it comes to actually DOING IT, we are told of how what we wanted isn’t really what we wanted, and they gave us something else, that we are then told is better, and then it is a colossal failure.

Yes, Paul Ryan is a complete disaster, and he needs to be run out of town on a rail complete with Tar & Feathers.

ABC did an exit poll, and they don’t give results. But. The results are encouraging. Could Trump be over 40 and the 2nd place be like 17-18?
