Part
1 of 4 – Party Loyalty
A gorilla, even a mighty one, still has four legs to stand on so
what are the four legs of the Democrat party?
Well in this late stage of evolution with the party approaching life
support the legs are Abortion, the African American dependency, the Hispanic
delusion, and Middle American alienation.
In each of these important areas the principles interwoven
into the Democrat Party fabric regarding the subjects is archaic, radical,
grossly misguided, and highly reactionary.
First, the party has fallen victim to the classic position that people
are, by and large, stupid when it comes to politics. As a result, certain assumptions are made by
the party.
So, the assumptions are already off the tracks in three
distinct areas, and off the cliff in a fourth area.
- Party loyalty
- Patriotism
- Persecuted
- Persuadable
Party
Loyalty
Party leaders seem to have the notion that members of the
Democrat party have no mind of their own, no thirst for truth, and no ability
to act independently. Good Democrats
must put aside their own notions and act in the best interest of the party, as
articulated by said leadership.
When the party adopts a position, people are required to
blindly follow the path prescribed no matter what the impact may be on the
individuals. Woe is the Democrat who
violates such a decree. Now there might
have been a time when political leaders held such a position or power, but the
level of insight demonstrated recently suggests that time has long passed.
Such an attitude leads one to believe the people are not
capable of thinking for themselves nor looking out for their own interests,
they need the party. If that were truly
the case, then why was it the Republican party under Abraham Lincoln destroyed
slavery and not the Democrats at the time?
Yet today, the Democratic party assumes if you are African
American or Hispanic, you are a Democrat, therefore you must think and act like
a Democrat. The party platform embraces
a sense you are being denied everything you deserve, you are the perpetual
victim, you are the victim of White supremacy, and you must hate the opposition
out to destroy you.
Where I come from out in the American heartland, we have a
saying for such arrogance and deception, Hogwash!
America is the land of liberty, freedom, and equal opportunity
for all. There is nothing in the
Constitution that says any race, gender, wealth, or political party member is treated
any different, we all share the same rights.
We honor individual rights, we respect an individual’s race,
religion, and everything else as long as the same respect is given in return. We cherish the promise of life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness as delineated in our Constitution, and for 242 years
we have defended those rights for all to the point of sacrificing lives so that
others may enjoy freedom and equality.
Such freedom does not allow you to be stereotyped, to be taken
for granted, to forfeit your right to think, and to vote for whomever you are
told. No one and no party can impose
such anti-Constitutional restraints on any other people. There is no room in America for machine-made, pattern-stamped,
assembly-line minds.
We are all individual creations of the same God, sons and
daughters all, and so our forefathers wisely directed our nation to honor God
and all the Divine teachings of God. “One
nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all!”
It is ridiculous for the Democratic leaders to think all people
within a demographic group think, act, or are the same. It is
an insult to all Americans. There are
liberal, middle of the road, and conservative Black, female, or Latino Americans
in the Democratic and Republican parties, just as there are within the White
community. That is what freedom gives
us.
Ironically, the political parties, both Democrats and
Republicans, are not even mentioned in our Declaration of Independence,
Constitution and Bill of Rights. Neither
are the rich, Wall Streeters, or any other class or classification of
citizens. We are all equal.
In spite of the tremendous odds during our formation and
evolutionary period to get to this point, all races, in fact all legal immigrants,
are protected by our laws. Bias is not
easy to overcome. It was not the
colonists that settled America who brought slaves to America, it was the Dutch,
French and English who were fighting over which country could claim ownership
of the new territory.
Americans realized the imperfections of the European countries
and in 1776 declared independence and set in motion a mechanism to fix the problems. Some were incredibly embedded in our way of
life and it took a Civil War to bring justice in abolishing slavery.
It would be fifty-five more years (1920) before women were given the right to vote. Still there was a lingering bias so more than forty years later (1964) the Voting Rights and Civil Rights Acts were approved again reinforcing the intent of the original founding fathers.
As for females, the largest female voting block in history was
Barack Obama’s 2012 election when he got 56% of the women’s vote. In 2016, with women’s groups dominating the
political landscape and Hillary Clinton the favored and first woman on the
ballot, she fell behind Obama’s total.
Here is what The New York Times said about the gender split in 2016.
“Fifty-four percent of Mrs. Clinton’s voters
were women, and 42 percent of Mr. Trump’s, an overall change of only one
percentage point in Mrs. Clinton’s favor compared with 2012. Forty-one percent
of her voters and 53 percent of Mr. Trump’s were men, an overall change of five
percentage points in his favor.”
Seriously, when a female candidate only gets 54% of all women
voting, especially when she was running against Trump, that is hardly an overwhelming
endorsement of the women’s movement behind Hillary, or the concept of all women
voting as a block.
Since the 2016 election the many Democrats in Hollywood and
the news media getting accused of sexual improprieties and worse has resulted
in the MeToo movement, but it remains to be seen if they can avoid being identified
as a liberal fringe group Their
political endorsements and actions in protests will confirm their true intent.
