LOL, Well I'm not saying that all democrats are informed or rationale.
But ill-thought out blanket assumptions are killing us. Romney assumed in the last election that nobody receiving payments from the government would ever vote for us. He discounted senior republicans on SSA. He discounted conservative jobless, who favor Republican policies. And in doing so, he single handedly made the case why donating to him was a futile excercise. If Romney was right, you might as well save your money and wait for something to change.
Just in that article alone, you see several issues that can be worked.
- That democrat is in favor of gun control. That's an issue that we need to educate on.
- He's confused about the meaning of the constitution, in part because New York and Chicago have unconstitutional laws. We need to educate and we need to fight those unconstitutional laws. Didn't we recently win against those laws in Chicago? It's not enough to defeat the laws, we need to educate why the Right to bear arms is important.
- He thinks the President came from our country. Well, we learned we need to implement a process to verify. And we learned the judiciary thinks we don't have standing and that also needs to be fixed for future elections.
- He thinks Chicago is safer than Morehead. Morehead, NC had one murder in 2012. He is badly uninformed. But again the safety record of gun control is something we can educate on. Issue specific education is one of the strategies we need to implement. Other's include actually having a plan.
- He thinks the constitution is not that great and needs to be changed. We need to educate on the rule of law and that there is a proper lawful way to modify the constitution, that doesn't involve just ignoring it or allowing President Obama to single handedly change it.
- He thinks Republicans are racist. We need to do a better job to overcome that perception. And we are doing a better job. People like Dr. Carson are fighting against that perception. But we miss a lot of opportunities to reinforce that we are not racist.
- He thinks the constitutional clause "natural born" means natural birth and not "c-section". Okay, I'm not sure we can do enough education to win this idiot over. But there are smarter democrat voters that will swing, if we make our case, and Reagan proved that.

The problem is, that "voter" in the Letter to the Editor, is functionally illiterate and borderline retarded. Look at the wording. There is no way in hell you're going change his/her/its mind. Go down point by point, and I guarantee you you will get nothing but vulgar bile and....

That was the main point of my post for this letter to the editor. Originally, I thought it was a hoax, but a little I'net research revealed one thing. There ARE people that stupid. Lost cause if there ever was one.
Of course, they think that John McCain campaigned in all 57 states, and Sarah Palin said " I can see Russia from my house" as well. And we thought Dummie Funnies were fake.....
