Good old Saul Alinsky. I was introduced to him in college through various professors and I still find as a conservative that I can just as easily use his methods against him and they can be against others.

The writer brings up some interesting points about Hillary’s motives and thinking, but I believe that his fears are unfounded. I’ve written this before and I still believe it - I think that the military would refuse to carry out any “revolutionary” actions by Hillary, the justice department in many parts would do the same, some of the states would tell her to go to hell, and many police departments would also do that same thing. Yes, her efforts would have the rabid support of the academics and the media, but I don’t think that anyone is fearful of a nighttime raid by a literature professor and the staff of the local newspaper. The military takes an oath to defend the Constitution, not the president, and they take that oath seriously. Despite the seemingly vast numbers of leftist judges out there, there are many who also support the Constitution, not the president. I’ve hung around enough cops to know they would simply ignore orders coming down from on high to commit crimes against the population.

I still see a President Hillary Clinton as a one-term president, spending her last year barking orders that no one obeys and making speeches that no one listens to.

So very well said.

Don’t ever, EVER, think that “it can’t happen here.” Hillary & Co. believe in incrementalism/salami tactics/camel’s nose, etc. For instance, did YOU believe in 1992 that people would be taking gay marriage seriously 12 years later?

Socialized Medicine is not going away.

Euthanasia?

Bueller?

When the time comes, various agencies can be staffed by the "correct" people, who would have no problems firing on middle class America. There are, after all, plenty of people in America who have a fondness for violence and antagonism for middle-class America, who can be recruited

Literature professors are not the only Dem constituency

“The military takes an oath to defend the Constitution, not the president, and they take that oath seriously.”

I think you are correct. However, the BATF did not seem to have such qualms when under her husband. Regardless - enough gun laws have already been passed that many of us would deem unconstitutional, and I’m sure Hillary would be able to come up with some more that would pass muster with a Democrat Senate and House.
