A greater level of political Socialism is NOT an American Value Hilly. Your entire career has bee a radical assault on the Middle Class and American Values. Sorry if we doubt you suddenly discovered the fact that your Democrats are the MAJORY enemy of people desiring to reach, or exceed, the middle class.

The key tenets:

Every American should have the opportunity and responsibility to go to college and earn a degree, and to get the lifelong training they need.

Every worker should have the opportunity and responsibility to save for a secure retirement.

Every business should have the opportunity to grow and prosper in the strongest private economy on Earth, and the responsibility to equip workers with the same tools of success as management.

Every individual should have the opportunity and responsibility to start building wealth from day one, and the security and community that come from owning a home.

Every family should have the opportunity to afford health insurance for their children, and the responsibility to obtain it.

Okay, which ones currently to people not have?

How much of the American Dream did Vilsack save for the folks in Newton, Mt. Pleasant and Centerville, Iowa (Maytag, Blue Bird School Bus, Rubbermaid) ?

Hold on to your wallets.

I had a friend who passed a way a few years ago. He was a union man, a WW2 Vet, and a Christian. He voted dem since his first election in 1940, he voted for Roosevelt. But in 1996 just before the election he stopped votings. He could not stomach the liberals anymore. He said, "Son, if you do not make at least $250K a year you have no business voting republican, but if you are any type of Christian you have no business voting democrat either." I have heard similar many times in the past 5 years.

If the dems ever do move the right on social issues, push for a strong defense, and have a popularist economic plan the republicans are in trouble. But most of the people I know will have to be shown that. Deeds speak louder then words. And Hiltery's deeds scream.

Work hard in high school, get good grades, and every American can do this.

Every worker should have the opportunity and responsibility to save for a secure retirement.

Perhaps if the government didn't insist on taking 14% of a worker's salaray to pay for other retirees, they could do this.

Every business should have the opportunity to grow and prosper in the strongest private economy on Earth, and the responsibility to equip workers with the same tools of success as management.

A socialist promoting private economy. Next thing you know, she'll be selling you a brdige in Manhatten...

Every individual should have the opportunity and responsibility to start building wealth from day one, and the security and community that come from owning a home.

Perhaps the government should stop beeing so **** greedy and let us keep a little more of our wealth. And that doesn't mean robbing Peter to pay me, Paul.

Every family should have the opportunity to afford health insurance for their children, and the responsibility to obtain it.

Hey, since we're so big into responsibility, perhaps the government should get out of the health care industry. That might do a lot towards making it affordable, and encouraging people to be responsible.

When the beast uses a phrase like our God-given potential, I expect to see her carrying the Clinton Hollywood prop Bible at the next photo-op.

You won't see the likes of Harry Truman again. And that's what it would take to switch the Donk party...

Think these turds will admit it was Ronald Reagan who caused the defeat of communism? How about the Bush tax cuts stimulating the economy? Will they admit liberals have been worng in foriegn policy at least forty years?
Will they admit abortion is killing? How about the larger the government is, the less freedom people have?
Didn't think so--and we should believe them, why? All they and their proxies do is lie like a pack of sleazy con artists.

Every American ALREADY has those opportunities! It's called the free enterprise system. And it is their RESPONSIBILITY to get off their butts and make it happen!

I do not believe that every family has the opportunity to afford health insurance.

Agreed. Liek I have said a social conservative, moderate on economic issues would play well. But this bunch is just trying to lip stick the same old liberal pig.

Maybe Hitlery should throw in some ideas from Saul Alinsky and see how far that gets her.

My thoughts exactly.

Notice that everything was great until "the turn of the century." LOL: the stock market already was crashing; terrorists ran rampant and unpunished for 8 LONG years under the Slick One, culminating in 9/11; the military was severely downsized, resulting in our need to call up reserves today; the President was politically paralyzed due to his overlapping scandals and lying under oath to a Grand Jury.

In fairness, under His Slickness, the budget was balanced. Now it isn't, due in part to Bush/Cheney's orchestration of 9/11 in their grand scheme to rationalize an attack on Iraq. The deficit is also due to Bush's profligate spending on New Orleans cleanup, which Bush is responsible for causing in the first place since he allowed Global Warning to create big hurricanes.

If we elect Hillary, she will stop killer hurricanes by deeply inhaling before our shores are threatened. She can suck the life out of the damned things.
