The main purpose of being a leftists leader is to elevate yourself over others while fooling them into thinking you are helping them.

Is Sam able to go out on the stump too? That’s who Georgians really want. Just like the American people have to take HRC to get back their “bill”.

[Theodore R.]

If Michelle loses, the media can blame it on the unpopularity in GA of “IN”’s “Little Richard” Lugar.

[Theodore R.]

I had forgotten that Sam is a gun-grabber; but I don’t think Georgia people know that either.

[Theodore R.]

The American people like these dynasties though; it makes it easier for them to remember politicians’ names.

"Patricians were historically afforded more privileges than plebeians. They were better represented in the Roman assemblies. The Comitia Centuriata, the main legislative body, was divided into 193 voting centuriae (centuries). The first two houses (which consisted largely of patricians) together had 98 centuriae, a number which was enough to obtain a majority, despite the fact that they were fewer in number. That meant that if the patricians acted in concord, they could always determine the result of the voting of the people's assembly. So, although it was not forbidden for plebeians to hold magistracies, the patricians dominated the political scene for centuries.

Nice to see we have not advanced much (politically) since the days of the Roman Republic. Our patrician class is alive and well.

Or Shrillary’s on again/off again southern twang.

Or Barry's on again/off again "Negro dialect" (according to Harry Reid).
