Let me point this out to you one MORE TIME VERY CLEARLY! Ronald Reagan was a democrat HEAVILY into supporting FDR’s New Deal...he admitted it and he stated it, whether YOU like it or not he was a DEMOCRAT! He was a spokesperson for freaking GE! He was the director of the Screen Actors Guild for 20 years as a DEMOCRAT. His first wife, Jane Wyman divorced him because of his political positions.

Rick Perry was a CONSERVATIVE democrat from the day he entered politics. He was a member of the budget committee pushing austerity policies, even then. He never stopped being a CONSERVATIVE democrat until the Texas Trial Lawyers drummed him out of the party for supporting Tort Reform BECAUSE of his conservative stances. He switched parties, just like Ronald Reagan did BECAUSE he is in fact a conservative and always has been.

He did NOT support HillaryCare, he said it was a ‘commendable’ effort, but his focus was on access to health care by rural communities, which is a huge concern to Texas since it’s 100 miles between major hospitals and clinics.

So you can STUFF your RINO BS krap democratic bucket of horse manure and suck it.

I seriously doubt anyone has ever said Ronaldus Magnus wasn't a Democrat, but you, my young friend, are terribly confused about what kind of Democrat he was.

He was NEVER elected to public office as a Democrat.

His only foray into electoral politics was as a Republican.

I find it peculiar that so many Texans have such difficulty figuring out the difference between elected officials and voters, and between Republicans and Democrats.

Were you aware that Ronaldus Magnus had been a member of the Christian Church, just like Lyndon Baines Johnson?

What you have to remember is the time of the RINO is over. There's really no sense in Perry even trying to get the top post in the Republican party.

Back in the days when Democrats were assassinating or lynching everybody in the South who tried to run for office as a Republican (30,000 dead eh) the only way we could keep the Republican party going was to find younger Democrats who wanted to advance faster than the party bosses wanted.

They'd have to have already been elected to office because that pretty much made them immune from being murdered, but the deal was they had to caucus with the Republican party in the state legislature.

Eventually we broke the Democrat hold on the "Solid South".

It wasn't about Conservative policies ~ it was about Republican Party!

Now we don't need RINOs ~ galvanized Democrats if you wish.
