The vast majority of the party leadership sees us citizens as helpless waifs, and those that aren't are evyil rich white people holding people back.
You won't get significant disagreement from Me that progressives do hold those views. The leadership of the Republican party (Boehner, Ryan, Cantor, McConnell) isn't much better, in My experience.
When Harry Reid is on the senate floor lying about private citizens how can you support that?
When Boehner is working to allow twelve million illegal alien invaders amnesty, how can you support that?

Being a member of a party does not mean that you support all the policies or practices of that party nor does it mean you agree with or admire the leading figures within that party.
The nation is hurting and the only solution democrats offer is welfare and a message that you are helpless and can't make it without federal overseers.
Yes, the United States is in danger, which is why I'm running for office. No, this Democrat is offering a constitutional solution to our problems.
When confronted with any disagreement they scream racist. I am sick and tired of being an accused racist.
I don't make ad-hominem attacks and I have been called My fair share of names, so I understand your frustration.
I can not, and will not ever, support a party with such core contempt for America as founded nor can I ever support a candidate that would attach themselves to the democrat platform.
I don't attach Myself to the progressive agenda. I stand for the Constitution, limited government, personal responsibility, and State sovereignty. If you oppose someone who stands with and for the Constitution just because they have a (D) after their name, I suggest you examine you priorites very closely. That is no better than those who blindly support someone because they have a (D) after their name.
