Poll -- The public doesn't care about Democrats' priorities
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 1/25/2016 | Staff

Posted on 01/26/2016 5:04:29 AM PST by IBD editorial writer

2016 Elections: Democrats like to portray Republicans as out of touch. But a new poll shows that it’s Democrats who are fixated on issues the public could hardly care less about, and who are too trusting of government.

Bernie Sanders wants to spend $1.9 trillion more each year to socialize medicine, provide free college education and offer a host of other government goodies. Clinton’s agenda has a price tag that now tops $1 trillion.

When you make things "free" they tend to become worthless.

Socialized medicine in Britain and Canada is in a downward spiral.

College degrees in black studies and feminist history are already worthless. Once we have free college there will be a sudden growth in other worthless majors that pander to the unqualified.

Look for an increase in keeping a very close eye on those voter machines come election time.

The public might not agree with Democratic priorities, but the GOPe does!

That is why Democratic priorities keep getting passed by the Republican Congress!

The GOPe Congress is worse than useless. It is complicit.

This, among other reasons, is why I believe Trump really could carry states like NY, NJ, PA and OH.

“It is starting tos wing back from left to right.”

Respecfully, don’t count on it.

Progressive indoctrination has brought the radicalized part of the electorate to more than fourty per-cent.

Add in no I.D. requirement for voting, registration of Mickey and Minnie Mouse, ballot stuffing, and the pendulum will seem as it it’s not moving at all.

IMHO

Americans have had their stomach full of ultra liberal BS. From gender confusion to Back Lives Matter. From Muslim immigrants good, patriotic Americans bad. From offend-o-bots vs Freedom of Speech. From America the Evil vs America the Beautiful. From “The sky is falling” Chicken Little BS Global Warming hysteria vs “Wow! What a beautiful day!”

Democrat negativity and scare tactics have worn thin, very very thin.

Video cameras ready with notepads to take down license plate numbers and film the buses and liberal activist groups. Already have people who have deciphered the electronic voting algorithms to determine if fraud is taking place or not...: )

I’ve been saying that for a long time. The Democrats and the media constantly bring forth “issues” and blow them up and make them sound serious, when the majority of the country doesn’t give a damn about those things. They are the masters of distraction.

Yes.

It’s easy to use public polls to show, ostensibly, public support for Progressive policies. But the only thing that really matters is whether that “supportive” public is willing to vote on them.

Gun control and global warming being two really good examples. If the public really wanted gun control, really wanted drastic action on global warming, elected officials at all levels of government would reflect it.

The X-Files are back on TV.

That tells me that public trust in government has collapsed.

None of the plot lines, nor the basic premise, work at all unless you are of a mind that the government lies continually, about everything, and at all times.

The Dems problem is that they have become obsessed with issues that are only important to a handful of wealthy donors.

Climate Change, Gun Control, Bash Israel and Green Energy.

If they adopted a populist economic platform (raise the minimum wage, raise SS payments, forgive student loans, send some Wall Street bankers to jail) they will start to do much better.

I suspect they will adopt those tactics sooner rather than later.
