The problem is that the horse was already out of the barn by the time FR was on the scene. CA turned to the dark side effectively with the 1996 elections and never looked back. Even if every member of this forum from the 1997-2016 period been militantly closed borders and against the corrupted RINO Establishment and its hacks and flunkies, it would’ve made virtually no difference in the national outcome.
FR being on the wrong side of open borders didn’t help, did it?
