The fact that we allow the other party to call themselves "democrats" is a travesty. It permits the uneducated to arrive at the false conclusion that Republicans do not believe in democracy. We should call them what they are, neo-comms or socialists.
The fact that the "liberals" have been permitted to advance an agenda based on SEEMING to care for minorities while simultaneously promoting policies which consistently slow their progress and ability to function and thrive in society is MINDBLOWING to me.
Promoting racial quotas and lowered standards under the guise of "opportunity" is a false promise. We are faced with an entire generation of people who have been raised thinking they are owed something by the government they pay for. Who have yet to make the connection between their own tax payments and the federal budget. And these same people are taught in school how great democracy is (true) and then when they get to vote, they are forced to choose... Democratic or NOT Democratic ... since Democracy is good, then Democrats must be good...
So simple. Yet so powerful. All it takes is a comprehensive and thorough misunderstanding of what the parties actually stand for and a lack of education in basic economics below the college level...
