Drop the “Democrat” part ,99% of parties with it in the name are really Communist/Socialist
An Irishman opposing immigration because it lowers wages? There's irony for you. The Kennedys and Buchanans didn't seem to mind immigration one little bit in 1850!
No, we don’t want the left to get any common sense. Just keep being radical and wacky on their side. We need a better message to get moderates over to our side like a well written pamphlet with companion youtube documentary.
As was said in Roosevelt’s time I’m an Al Smith Democrat.
I watched the debate between Nixon and Kennedy on youtube.
He sounded word for word like a typical lib.
He had a few moments but he was a lib.
Why would you WANT a new and improved dem party?
And would you say italian and irish and jewish immigration were failures?
This is a copy and paste of a World Net Daily column with a different heading.
And why the hell would we want a "new" Democrat party that is in more direct competition with the GOP? Dumb.
The only trouble with replacing us was we’re still here.
Truman & JFK were in the military.
Last 2 RAT POTUS were not.
Does it matter ?
There is a Democrat party. It is called the Repblicans party, minus the Conservatives.
Could be time for a new GOP too!
I agree a new party needs to be formed, but it should not have the word “Democrat” in it anyplace. It’s a brand name similar to what Edsel was to Ford a few decades back.
It also implies communism and socialism.
With the Republican party married to the globalists, yes, there’s room for a new truly American party.
But with our latest snowflake movement and the globalists not yet relinquishing the reins of power, it’s a long way off.
It may actually take CWII to make it happen.
You mean the legal immigration in 1850.
Those immigrants didn’t want handouts and they weren’t gang bangers. Myths from Hollywood are irrelevant.
Harry Truman who tried to nationalize the steel industry and disarmed our military so badly that ‘Task Force Smith’ happened in Korea in 50’.
And Kennedy that has given us the Castro brothers off the Florida coast.
No we don’t - let them spiral into decades of obscurity.
You mean like Tammany corruption or the Oklahoma Land Rush?
and they weren’t gang bangers.
Enough were that the Irish gang stereotype had validity (Northside Mob in Chicago, Southside Boston etc.) In the same way the most Italians were law abiding, but the Mafia was and is real.
In any event, Irish immigrants were deeply despised for lowering wages in the mid 19th Century. The Nativist movement of the time was very powerful and styled themselves as Patriots.
Of the 535 members of congress, about 50 are reliably constitutionally anchored. America as we know it won’t survive with those numbers and the cronies on K-Street.
The foundation of federalism is broken. A New Democrat party will not fix it. Article V Convention of States. Eliminate the 17th Amendment, term limits, balanced budget, judicial review, and others.
Why are you at FR?
Truman took over the steel industry with soldiers. Kennedy was a wuss on foreign policy
Democrats also gave us Woodwrow Wilson, FDR, and Bill Clinton
The history of the rats is filled with KKK insanity and the likes of Robert Nyrd
Just puhleeeze no
I;m sure I’m not the only one who notices that you hear very little from or about the American Communist Party. They admit they are not needed any more.
