    I said Johnson above was the worst president of all time (in terms of foreign policy).

    I criticized Wilson on WW1, but his mistakes weren't nearly the blunders of W Bush in Iraq.

    With FDR, WWII was an essential conflict, it was an honest cause, we won it, there were positive results. Iraq wasn't necessary, there were no WMD's, we had nothing to win and the middle east is destabilized now.

    Ok you are right to a degree about Obamas term.. But it had rapid growth the first couple years of his terms and has been declining since. Good for him.

    But Obama care still is a gigantic govt policy

    And the small govt idea plays well for republicans.

    Democrats also supported slavery during those times.

    Hey moron, didn't we already go through LBJ signing the Civil Rights Act/Dixiecrats splitting with the Democrats to become Republicans/Southern Strategy/Democratic Party becomes the Progressive Party all in 1964? Are you really that f---ing stupid?


    Why do think blacks vote for Democrats at a rate of +90%?


    It wasn't like that pre 1964. Republicans chose to embrace segregation and our racist past and the Democrats chose to move forward.

    Resorting to name calling? Ok, your the one that brought up the morality of republican slave owners as if democrats had no part in it. And don't act like racism ended in the Democratic party in 1964.

    Yeah, I called you a moron.. deal with it.
    The Founding Fathers weren't Republicans... I just said that Conservatives worship them.
    Obviously, racism didn't end in the Democratic party or anywhere else in 1964... there's definitely racist Democrats even today.

    The difference is the destruction of racism is a plank of the Progressive Movement which is embraced by the Democratic party...

    It isn't a plank in the Conservative Movement and front runner for the GOP nomination is running a campaign of White Nationalism.

    At the state level, voter ID laws.
    At the national judicial level the Conservative Supreme's overturned the 1965 Voting Rights Act.
    At the national level the PATRIOT ACT and the provisions in it that all but overturn the 4th Amendment.
    Arizona SB1070 that completely eliminates the 4th Amendment rights in Arizona.


    That's off the top of my head... there is a lot more.

    Great post, but I really hate the way Obama has been involved in Libya and now Syria.

    Libya is f----- up now that Gaddafi has been taken out, and now Obama wants to do the same to Assad in Syria, whilst also fighting a losing war against ISIS.

    Res makes good political posts until he decides to intentionally misrepresent people he doesn't like. Trump isn't and never has been a white nationalist. And I'm pretty sure Res knows it.

    He's running a campaign of White Nationalism... that's why his rallies are now race riots... it's not some kind of coincidence... can I say he has had racist practices in the past?


    Yes.

    Years ago when a black applicant applied to rent an apartment in one of his buildings staff would write a "C" ontop of the application.

    The "C" stood for "coloured" and was automatically denied... according to the Department of Justice.


    Ted Cruz has said the media is holding back on exposés and information they want to use against Donald Trump... which is only a half truth.

    There is a lot of damaging information out there in the nexus about Donald Trump's past racist business practices... they're just not getting blown up by SuperPACs yet because Ted Cruz/Marco/Kasich need Trump's racist supporters in the General.

    They're hoping that things that are already known but under reported won't be on every other commercial on TV and radio.... and they won't unless Trump wins the primary.

    You are a gay r----- who gets owned everyday of life.

    I have 11 jobs that I love... a stockpile of cash and real estate... everyday my green line goes up, no matter what.

    Women never leave me and everyday is an adventure for me.

    Think about that when you listen to all your heroes cry about how they helped get Trump elected and how it effectively ruined their lives.

    What cope? I'm about to buy more real estate on Short Sales... kicking MAGA dumb f---s out of their homes and taking money from short sighted banks...

    Meanwhile you are going to starve to death... everyone hates you for being stupid and everyone knows I've always been right.
