    Question for Democat Voters

    I made this tpf to keep it from spiraling into the toilet, im really interested in the responses of those that are democrats and what their thought process is.

    I especially would like to hear from
    @Dr. Who @Standing Wolf @IMPress Polly @Adelaide etc if they care to respond


    If anyone is voting democrat and a democrat wins, you have voted for and accepted their ideals and ideas on how the direction this country should go

    My question is are you for Socializing America to the extent Socialized Medicine, free college and taking from the rich and giving it to others. If your candidate is for making illegal immigration legal will you accept that. Are you for reparations.

    Every candidate running for potus that can win the nomination <I exclude Biden> Warren, Sanders, Harris if one of those win, they will socialize as much of this country as they can are you willing to vote for that are you for socializing america?

    We know those 3 have been against any kind of control of illegal immigration, how many more millions of illegals are you willing to accept and vote for candidates that will leave them unimpeded.

    Those issues are paramount to me NOT to happen thats mainly why I will not vote democrat.

    This election will not be about the usual suspects, Gay everything, Abortion, Racism this election is about much more.


    The question: Are you willing to accept all that to vote democrat because you cant pick and chose which will happen and which wont.
    LETS GO BRANDON
    F Joe Biden

    Suggesting that America will become the old Soviet Union if Elizabeth Warren is elected president seems kind of hyperbolic to me.

    There's a lot with which I don't agree with any of the Democratic candidates on, but at the end of the day, this election, as far as I'm concerned, is about saving the planet...to whatever extent that's even still possible at this point anyway. The climate crisis is the most serious problem before us. We have ONE decade left to make mega-progress on reducing carbon emissions, which is something that Joe Biden simply will not do. Won't even try. The Green New Deal is a dividing-line for me in this election. It's objectively imperative at this stage that serious action, specifically involving trillions of dollars of investment in public works, start to be undertaken IMMEDIATELY! That's NOT an option! Anything less than that and not just us, but the whole Earth will suffer consequences of a magnitude that can be hardly imagined even now.

    This isn't the time for wishy-washy, corporate-friendly, middle-of-the-road candidates (let alone reactionary nature haters like Trump) who won't take THE most serious emergency confronting the world seriously. If ever there were a time for a candidate with bold ideas, that time is right now because the next election cycle will pretty much for sure be too late. As Chloe has put it before, nothing else matters if we don't have a planet.

    I'm also tired of seeing people who simply want to be part of this country suffer so needlessly in camps around our southern border, especially since much of the reason why so many of them are fleeing here is related to how our own policies have adversely affected their countries of origin. We need to collectively regain a conscience toward the poor and needy and people who are fleeing violence and see them as human and not as an "infestation" in need of being (perhaps physically) eliminated.

    The New Green Deal in the US would cause a civil war and I don't think the hard left could keep up.

    To suggest that we vote for any program now is folly. We now don't vote FOR any candidate, we vote AGAINST those we oppose.
    Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I digress....

    Why is saving the planet from the worst ecological calamity possible a prospect that angers so many conservatives that much? I don't understand that.

    You are chasing a myth. There is no ecological calamity in store for us involving the ever changing climate. We have been coming out of the last ice age for 20K years. I prefer it warmer.

    So-called climate change is about power and control. I often wonder why people so readily believe the left's lies. Not that it matters.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Because we can't save or destroy the world, and patriots will not stand for extremists destroying the economy for their bad dreams. The GND is a nation-killer.

    Having a planet to live on that can sustain human life is not a "bad dream", let alone anything you should fantasize about killing people over.
