Heh heh... I have a thick skin. Don’t worry about that part... and I was probably a bit harsj there myself!

I just need to know, as a writer, what works and what doesn’t, so that I know what to try, and what not to try, next time.

It’s all a learning experience. We’re trying to get through to the folks who don’t yet understand; we can’t give up on them, because, darn it, they have the vote too. So we have to teach them. (even though we may be utterly baffled as to why an issue is hard for them!)

I go back here a few years. So you know, there were people on this very site years ago, during GW Bush's first run for POTUS who were calling people right here, "One issue voters, or One note wonders" etc. It was explained to them how this negatively and dramatically affects every aspect of our country.

After a few years, I saw most of those people as frauds and supporters of this epic invasion. Ya see lots of people benefit from it and or have conflicting interests.

Cheap labor, bigger profits and votes, regardless of consequences, are the only values some people have.

They're selling out generations of Americans for their own self interests.

Good luck.

As dragnet2 wrote, it would have been a great article 25 or so years ago. Or even 10 years ago.

A great column today, addressing those who don’t yet understand, would be based on http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3262408/posts?q=1&;page=63

That would be a follow up that should get some attention.
