    Not a conspiracy, it's how the DNC works.

    It's the DNC not the Democratic voters who decide who will win the Democratic party Presidential nomination.

    Why do you think the DNC was so butt hurt when their email servers were hacked ?

    Back in 2006 it was already decided that Hillary would be thrown under the bus and Barrack Obama would be the Democratic Presidential candidate.

    It was also decided back in 2008 that Hillary would be the Democratic Presidential nominee for 2016. Bernie Sanders didn't have a chance.

    Wow.. You must have high security clearance to know all this. Or again it’s conspiracy number 2864. I love the way people like you creat these scenarios in your head and then cite them like they are actual facts.
    But I bet you don’t want to find out if it was already decided that Trump was going to be president with the help of Russia. No you don’t care about that

    To a certain extent @APACHERAT is right and it was in all the news. The difference is that it is still a vote but the party wheels and deals to get the votes. For instance the DNC super delegates all went for Hillary.

    Tthank you for the well-written and cogent response. Though I agree with you that the racial demographics of this play a large role, it's not only about race, but rather, very much about policy. And a clear dichotomy between pocketbook issues and issues of national security vs. the so-called culture wars.

    And yes, freaks seem to be coming out of the woodwork. I can hardly call it patriotic or even American.

    But when it comes to race, the GOP has only itself to blame for literally demonizing every racial or ethnic group that is not white. It's shortsighted, not to mention inhumane.

    Sure. He was a bright, smart Law Professor who had integrity and morals. A person who people could see he was in Politics to help people.

    After bringing America out of the Great Recession that community organizer was rated 12th of all time best Presidents.

    Haven't seen any money......... however no amount of money will equal the damage Trump has done to America, it's citizens and our allies.

    Knowing that because of the Republicans are supporting a unpopular President
    who acts like a Authoritarian dictator who is putting his interest's above country.

    Can't wait for the 2018 Elections !!

    What damage? Barry destroyed every single thing he touched and Trump is fixing it before you r very eyes so please fill me in on what it is. Again, so glad I’m not a lib, fueled by blind hatred for nothing, against a man with the best intentions and actually standing by what he said and has made America better. Barry lied like no other politician, unprecedented lol. I can’t wait for this years elections too. Your party is a failure and now being proven extremely corrupt. Something we all knew. It’s fun watching you libs in complete panic mode.

    Really interested in what Lies President Obama said. I can think of 5 or 6. Please come up with a good number..........

    We heard from Trump how bad the USA on the campaign . Quite the Exaggeration. Crime, Jobs, illegals, trade deals,

    Actually facts shown otherwise and we're yet to see the great deal maker skills.

    He's been elected for a year. What has he accomplished except threatening everyone including citizens, judges, gold star families , veterans

    He escalated a war of words with North Korea reminiscent of school kids to almost the brink of war Promising he'd have China fix it. We're still waiting.

    Republicans passed Wealth Shift Legislation. which added 1.5 Trillion to Debt
    and cut Corporate Tax rates when Corporations have been raking in the Profits for 7 years.

    2017 GDP numbers are Lower than 2014 and 2015. Value of Dollar has fallen, Government borrowing is up.

    Any vague plans Trump comes up with rely on private investment.

    Pu$$y Grabbing Racist Trump is a man of No action. Vague Plans and Empty Promises that has single handily divided our country.

    I can’t even take you serious. The facts are obvious. Only the willfully ignorant can keep hating Trump while everything is better and right before your eyes lmao. You are the only ones fooled.

    Other than Trump bombing the Airbase after a chemical weapons attack
    I haven't seen any positive change since President Obama pulled USA of of the Great Recession.

    This has to do with the criminal acts found during the campaign and wherever that Leads.

    All of the damage to America is on Trumps base .......... that's just stupid but not criminal.

    I'll just pick the lowest hanging fruit here. Obama was president of the Harvard law review for the same reason he was president of the United States. He's black.

    You have to remember the left misrepresents actual reality. They are counting State Seats for State legislatures.

    Their Blue wave for the House just isn't there.

    And I bet you don’t think you’re a bigot!
    I realize that all the professors from Harvard got together and said, “the guy is black so let’s give him top grades”.
    You’re just another white guy who had affirmative-action for generations and was pissed off that he has to share the pie with people who are a lot smarter.
    The slogan in my class on prejudice is, “how do you deal with a problem if you don’t know you have one” you have one.

    How did Conyer get into office, by lottery? Resigned before being removed, allowing him to name his equally repulsive son as successor? Nice try.

    Bob Brady Not Running for Re-Election.....


    After Sexual Harassment Accusations, Dem. Ruben Kihuen Will Not Seek Re-Election ....



    Brutal: Poll Spells Big Trouble For Dems With White Working Class Voters.....


    How the Democratic Party Lost the Support of Poor Whites

    Democrat Representative Used $220K of Tax Payer Money For Sexual Harassment Settlement.....

    Documents show that the United States Treasury used $220,000 of tax payer money to settle a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment committed by Florida Democrat Alcee Hastings against one of his staffers, reports Roll Call.

    It is worth noting that Rep. Alcee Hastings was indicted by a grand jury in 1981 for accepting bribes as a Federal Judge in exchange for a shorter sentencing for two-mob convicted felons, according to senate.gov.

    Following years of committee proceedings, the Senate found Hastings guilty on 11 of 17 articles of impeachment. Former Ku Klux Klansman and Democrat icon Robert Byrd ordered Hastings removed from office, acting as the Senate president pro tempore. But, the senate did not bar him from holding future office.

    Four years later, Hastings was elected to Congress where he has held office ever since.....snip~

    https://townhall.com/tipsheet/timot...ocrat-used-220000-in-tax-payer-money-n2420439

    The Difference is.....who actually is the bottom of the gutter and who was always there from their creation. Looks like its the Racist Demos. Now racist against whites.

    It's just fact that Obama was elected because he was black. Even I was at first tempted thinking it would help heal the race divide in America. After learning who and what Obama was though I just couldn't do it and in retrospect he did more to increase racial division than heal it so I made the right choice

    I love when people say, it is “just a fact”No Obama was elected despite the fact that he was black. How dare you impose your racism here. Are you aware of how many people did not vote for him just because he was black? A black man being in the White House only increased the racial division because it brought out all the bigots, you know the people who thought he only got everywhere because he is black. You know the people who cannot believe that brilliant people get top honors at one of the most elite schools could be black. If you think I believe You were tempted to vote for Obama I have to laugh. People like you do not vote for a black man. What did he do that increased the racial division? I bet you think some of those neo-Nazis are really good people. People all over the world respected Obama and now we are the laughingstock of the world. Oh except for Russia they love Trump
    Trump was elected because the right wing extremists came out to vote for a self admitted sexual molester, they came out because he is a racist, they came out because they are gullible bigots....and those “are just facts”

    I love it. When people say Democrats are racist against whites. And I’m sure you think women are sexist against men..
    What I am trying to say to you is don’t hold yourself morally superior because you have a shorter fall to the gutter.You’re the party that pontificates about family values and you elect a man who is married three times and brags about molesting women. You’re the party that screams that you are morally superior and then relects men knowing that they are morally inferior. I don’t care who you vote for but don’t pretend that you are somehow morally superior. And I think you should learn a little about Byrd..
    You are like the person who screams against pot, and then smokes a joint at parties. I prefer the person who doesn’t pontificate and smokes a joint. See the difference? One is a hypocrite the other isn’t

    Seems your kind has been supporting Hasting with all those re-elections and hasnt said **** for years and still hasn't. Decades in fact. Yet kept throwing that support. Oh and Hastings isn't the only Demos you have done that with.

    Oh you don't love it when people say that as you know from the mouths of your Masters. That's what comes out their pie holes. Then the Cult following goes PC like and thinks they can use the term Identity Politics. Most leftists hardly like having the truth thrown in their face.

    Oh and the only ones that scream about moral superiority is the left blaming others as to what they themselves do and are about.

    As for me.....I'm not morally superior as I will use the tactics of the left against them. Has nothing to do with being morally superior.

    Its just the fact of being Superior......Period.

    Now you can come back with about How white I am, or that my uncle is named Tom when you discover the truth.

    It was the right time for a black to run and win and any black the DNC ran would have won. Unfortunately Obama did everything he could to weaponize being black and purposely drove wedges between races to divide and conquer. It's just unfortunate he was the black man who was president because it was a great opportunity squandered.
