What has happened to so many Conservatives?

When did the vote--the most sacred building block of democracy---become a mockery?

I agree = There's a dishonesty about it.

The privilege we have to vote is not a game

It was simultaneous with the GOP becoming a mockery of the once-proud, conservative party it was in the days of yore.

The fault is truly in multiple layers for a variety of reasons: 1.) The Republican Party at every level stopped truly being a overall conservative party (always being the party of smaller government and always being the party of fiscal restraint) a few years back, even with the Republicans dominating everything important politically, and this also upsets many of the conservative voters base in the process while Republicans in general truly still continue to move even more to the “political left” everyday; 2.) All political correctness including, but not limited to, all of the “dumbing down” of people continues to get even worse everyday all over the world, and this has affected who the final candidates for POTUS will end up being for both major political parties (The continuous political bias in the MSM all over the world is also a part of political correctness.); 3.) There presently are too many Republicans at every level who want amnesty for illegal immigrants for either cheap labor purposes, for the creation of new voters, or for both reasons, and this issue alone has upset a majority of conservatives all over the U.S. knowing that allowing these things to really happen will truly destroy the country and turn it into a third world mess forever; 4.) Globalization also continues to make things worse on a variety of issues all over the world instead of better and also continues to upset many conservatives at the same time.

The vote is a tool. It’s the influence wielded by an individual to have a say in the outcome of the democratic process.

As such, using it in the election of your CHOICE (remember that word?) to affect the selection of the leader is perfectly just, as long as it’s done lawfully.

All this implication that it is somehow “mockery” or “treachery” to vote in the “other” primary is a crock of crap.

In the opinion of the Democrat Party, the vote has always been a mockery. As long as there has been a DemocratParty there has been election fraud committed by them.

Our votes should only be used to advance the conservative cause.

In this case, voting for Hillary in the primary is probably the best way to do that.

They’ll be sorry when they (Clintons) get the White House again. Well, maybe not-many right here on FR, and many ‘conservative’ talk radio bots, want them for eight more years.
