Ouch. Excellent!

I’d love to see all out guerrilla warfare against her.

This sign in the Inland Empire was a real eye opener for me.

Your ideas are sound as well.

This is the sort of thing that movements are made of.

This could go postal on her. Great ideas...

Were they receptive?

[doug from upland]

very receptive.....I am working on a lengthy email with lots of good ideas, including all the women victims together being put under oath by a former federal prosecutor and telling what the Clintons did to them -— his assaults and their break ins, PI harassment, threats, intimidation, and IRS audits. That would be a great half hour youtube and perhaps even get on TV.

The Benghazi families also should all be together at the same venue and share their stories under oath.

[DoughtyOne]

LOL, great!

[DoughtyOne]

That’s great news Doug.

I’d like to be kept in the loop as this plays out.

Excellent job...

CATO is pro open borders claiming they are corporatist is just plain wrong. I have never read ANYTHING where they favor corporate subsidies ie taxpayer money.

I used to contribute to CATO and attend their seminars. CATO is a libertarian organization that supports the free flow of labor across borders.

CATO on immigration

Cato Amnesty Analysts Attack Jeff Sessions’ Plan to Battle Amnesty

I am a member of a grassroots immigration group that lobbies on the Hill. I have been doing if for over 9 years. CATO is on the wrong side of the immigration issue.

The criticism in the article is valid as is Cruz modifying his position on H1B visas.

True enough. Cruz has changed his position. CATO prefers the Ted Cruz that wanted to increase H-1B visas by 500%.

CATO was founded by the Koch brothers. They support big business and globalism.

Trump’s support of crony capitalism is IMO far worse than Cruz’s H1B visa position.

[kabar]

See the list of his previous positions, including support for TARP, bank bailouts and more, and give it some more thought.

I have given it plenty of thought, which is why I deem immigration to be the litmus test. TARP, bank bailouts, etc. pale in significance to the importance of immigration, the defining issue of our time. The status quo will make the Dems the permanent majority party on the national scene and at the state level. Demography is destiny.

This is our last shot. Do we really want to roll the dice when there is a rock solid constitutionalist alternative, with a track record to prove it?

I agree it is our last shot, but Ted Cruz will not win in the general election. He is too ideological and process oriented. We don't need another first term senator with little executive experience who has spent most of their working lives in the government.

Phyllis Schafly, a rock solid conservative, says Trump is the last hope for America.

"He does look like he's the last hope [for America]," Schlafly said. "We don't hear anybody saying what he's saying. In fact, most of the people who ought to be lining up with him are attacking him. They’re probably jealous of the amount of press coverage he gets. But the reason he gets so much press coverage is the grassroots are fed up with people who are running things, and they do want a change. They do want people to stand up for America. It really resonates when he says he wants to ‘Make America Great Again.’"
