    I could care less about anything the man does and still curious why the left gives him so much credibility and add to that credibility by doing so? Why wouldn't it be better if people stop putting him on a stage and then give him the attention he deserves.....none. Geez he plays you guys like a fiddle.

    It's not so much the Democrats being "played" like a fiddle. Actually, its the opposite. It's the very childish(but well-played by the Democrats) straw man argument. In fact, the straw man argument has basically become more or less their platforms.

    Example of straw man argument:
    "We can't repeat the last four years"-Obama, insulating that any Republican(specifically McCain at that point would be a Bush clone.)
    Or the whole "War on Women", "Republicans against Planned Parenthood" thing by Hillary Clinton this year.

    These are strawmen. They're NOT arguments. They're not even statements made by the opposing candidate. It's a strawman they can knock down because they're the ones who constructed the argument. It's why I can't wait to run a national ticket against a Democrat.

    I give her the benefit of the doubt about her square appearance; I'm sure she's wearing armor.

    That said, damn! That's one ugly piece of work! Damn Ugly!

    We'll see if CNN runs a dialog box under the current DNC speakers countering most everything they said---like they did with the RNC speakers.

    CNN Communist News Network. No objectivity, no diversity of opinion among the puppet masters.

    Wallace was definitely a Democrat, but today's democrats try to paint these segregationist democrats as Dixiecrats and not Democrats. In fact after Wallace made his independent run for president in 1968 with the American Independent Party, he ran again for the presidency and won a few primaries in 1972. If he wasn't shot who knows how the 1972 nomination race would have turned out. Wallace won Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina, Maryland, Michigan, Texas. Even with being shot and force to withdraw from the democratic nomination race, Wallace finished with 23.48% of the total Democratic vote in the 1972 Democratic primaries. That was just 2.29% behind the top vote getter.

    Wallace also spoke at the 1972 Democratic Convention from his wheelchair. Without him being shot, who knows how he would have done or if he could have won the nomination?

    There is no doubt Wallace was a Democrat. As were most southern segregationist.

    I noticed Corey Booker wiping sweat off his head. Do you think the MSNBC crew said the same thing about him?

    Nobody but Donny gave Duke credibility. First, by failing to refute his endorsement in January and then by giving Duke an endorsement in July.

    That's right. Donald Trump agreed to support David Duke if he didn't "like" the Democrat.

    Don't blame the media and don't blame the left. Nobody forces the ever so media savvy Trump to say anything. And, as noted, there's no need to twist oneself into knots trying to create something from nothing, Trump Bread comes pre-baked.

    No, in fact the same panel who mocked the Rep speaker praised Booker as a rising star in the Dem party.....to them he's the next Obama. ...no mention of "toweling themselves off'.

    Wallace won the Alabama governership (for the fifth time) in 1982, as a Democrat. (this was after most southern Democrats in AL became Republicans).

    - - - Updated - - -

    Yet, Wallace stayed as a Democrat, and even won the AL governorship as a Democrat after the Republification of Alabama.

    No it's the Democrats and MSM media trying to give him some credibility as they keep injecting him into the news which he then uses to raise money. Were it not for the left and the MSM we'd never hear about him.

    Ellison is a tool and a fool. He reigns over a safe district of drones that is something like D +25.

    So you mean him saying he would support a Democrat means he is for Duke. Go figure.

    Schools absolute hide the past of the Democratic party. I am stunned that virtually no one knows that the Lincoln was a Republican, it was Republicans who opposed slaughtering NAs, opposed slavery, opposed racial segregation, opposed Jim Crow laws and gave women the right to vote - or that the KKK was Democrat, Democrat presidents were slave owners, Democrats opposed the Civil Rights Act, opposed women having the right to vote, and supported slaughtering NAs. Vietnam and Korean were Democrat wars, so was the USA in WWI and WWII.

    The reason Democrats so push for racial division is that the Democratic Party from its origins to today has always pushed for and supported racial segregation. The reason they so cheered Mohammed Ali is that he was an extreme and outspoken racial segregationist. Racism has ALWAYS been at the heart of the Democratic party and still is.

    Yup, Wallace actually started off his political career not being an outright segregationist. He lost, so he turned to being a segregationist. Then in 1982, he ran for Governor (as a democrat) and got most of the black vote.

    That's a lie. Trump not only disavowed David Duke as far back as in 2000, he also quit the Reform Party giving reason he would not associate with Duke. It is false that Trump did not disavow Duke now. He exactly did.

    To the exact opposite, Hillary Clinton is in fact endorsed by a KKK grand dragon. She has absolutely refused to disavow the endorsement. Bill Clinton say people who fly the Confederate flag are Clinton supporters. Many people have stated on record that Hillary and Bill Clinton privately refer to blacks as "n.ggers." Clinton passed laws that targets blacks and passed laws devastating black family structure - which Hillary says NOW she will not change those laws.

    The Clintons are old Southern Confederates, bigots and racists. Trump, as Cruz pointed out, is a New York social liberal. However, he also is a capitalistic conservative economically and rejects the neocon militarism - which is exactly what Hillary Clinton does support.

    The reason the corporate MSM defines Hillary as liberal is to hide that actually she is a pro-war, Wall Street and big money global corporations shill and a lifelong racist, sexist and bigot.

    MANY blacks are very much for racial segregation. If you are a racial segregationist, you vote Democrat. It has always been the party of racial segregation which it was not still supporting slavery of blacks and slaughtering Native Americans. This evolved to the EXTREME efforts of the Democratic Party to cause as much racial strife as possible.

    Ah, the need to twist and redefine every nuance, a common "conservative" approach to the truth.

    Fortunately, The Donald doesn't need redefining. His racist appeal is clear in your avid response.

    Translation: you twist and redefine every nuance. The race card is all you have.
