The Democratic Convention

I was an intern at the DNC midterm convention in 1982. My issues back then as they are now are simple. Equal Rights for all and the right for a women to choose. Back then both political parties agreed with those things although the shift in the Republican party away from those values was in the toddler stage.

I like the profound shift from "The American Dream" to The American Story" is forefront and center. The problem I have with the Democrats are the stories. So Hilary talks about a women who adopts two autistic children and doesn't have health insurance when she finds out she has cancer. Am I the only person who sees a problem with this story? The story should be about the high occurrences of autism in this country. Not about a stupid decision to want to help children when they haven't planned for themselves.

And what's all this crap catering to "families". What about those who don't have or want families? Do they not vote?

All the Republicans are in a mess. They will feel the backlash of the evil social conservatives.

The Democrats are going to win this election. The Democrats will mess up and it's now time for some young and socially progressive Republicans who grew up poor, worked very hard to get their piece of the American Dream to begin their ascent.

There is a reality about why most people are poor. They make stupid choices when they are young. They give up on education. Look at all the people in the Democratic party. They grew up poor and made it. They think that making it easy for the poor will help. It will help get the Democrats elected. The end product is we will have a country of people who don't want to work too hard. I see this with high school students. They want life to be easy.

And did you see that STUPID guy on PBS from Brandeis University. I was truly embarrassed for Brandeis and I lost respect for them. I hope they fire the idiot. Oh they can't - he's a minority.
