Carson’s “likes” are a hoax.

“Truth is that the majority of “likes” are bought and paid for.”

How exactly does that work?

Easy. Your company or campaign manager has employees to make countless accounts to send tweets, makes comments and “likes” your product. You don’t believe all those product reviews on Amazon are real customers, do you? I’m sure there is software that will do it for them.

They rent a big room wit a few dozen computers, and get a bunch of brainless barely literate twits, who just dial targets over and over all day supporting whatever the loser who is paying them directs.

With major league losers like Obama and Cankle, the expense comes out of taxpayer money. Yours and mine!

Happens all the time!

My daughter is a freelance writer/editor, and for a while there she had a job writing fake Amazon reviews. I was shocked when she told me how that worked, and now I don’t really trust any reviews. I think one way to spot the fake ones is if they have no typos and are grammatically perfect.

Re: “Recall in 2012, over four million registered Republican voters didn't even bother showing up for Romney.”

Sorry, that's not correct.

4.5 million white voters stayed home, and most of them voted for Obama in 2008.

In 2012, Obama lost 5.5 million white voters compared to 2008.

In 2012, Romney got 1 million more white votes than McCain got in 2008.

I believe I am the only person in the world who has actually performed the basic math on this political fallacy.

However, in 2016, I believe millions of Republicans may actually stay home.

The GOP leadership has been lying to and betraying Conservatives since Teddy Roosevelt became president in 1901.

I've been voting Republican for almost 50 years, and, frankly, I'm done with these guys.
