These are the goofball Hillary voters I will never, never understand.

I posit that makes more sense if you look at it from a spiritual perspective. Human Nature - those who are guilty in their own lives with some justification for something, some attitude, way of thinking, whole-heartedly accept and want someone who is wicked, rejecting all principles God has laid down, written on men's hearts and providentially, into our Declaration of Independence and Constitution - things based on HIS Laws and Righteousness. You can see it with the Democratic Platform, no pretense anymore of Values and Morality (e.g., Abortion). As Isaiah said "Woe to them who call Evil good and Good evil."

Not saying all on our side are pure and right - just that we know we're sinners in need of an Absolute Code and Rightness greater than ourselves in order to keep and make things better for all.

To expand on time’s post, one can look at it this way. Man was created to have communion with God, but allowed the freedom of choice.

He chose poorly.

Since then, the natural state of mankind is sin, slavery (to both sin and to other men), and death.

The antidote to this was first the covenant and law, and later, Christ.

When given a choice, the people chose ... Barrabas, a murderer.

Again, this reflects on the natural state of mankind.

America was founded by groups of people, who while obviously not perfect, were looking to create a “more perfect union”, where men were free to commune with God as they saw fit, and be free of the oppression of their former masters.

de Tocqueville said that America will be great as long as she is good. Those times are coming, and pretty much have come to an end.

Another wise man said that Democracy is the system of government that ensures that the people will get the government they deserve.

The people of America have become corrupt, and with an ever smaller exception, embrace and rejoice in envy, greed, lust, pride, gluttony, deceit, wrath, the whole 7 yards.

Is it then any surprise that they should support the candidate who is the embodiment of their vices? And should recoil in horror at the prospect of anything else?
