This election is much more than Trump vs. Clinton. It's old America vs. new America

The contrast in the 2016 presidential election was as evident Thursday as it has ever been: Donald Trump spoke to a largely white audience in Ohio, a state that has traditionally picked presidents but finds itself somewhat marginalized this year.

Hillary and the progressives represent neo-feudalism wherein a few rule the vast majority of debt ridden serfs who work, consume, and have no ability to challenge those in power or the direction of the powers increasingly violent grasp on the world.

Trump represents a return to individual determination.

The race is not between persons as much as between competing world views.

This is all about the racist left wanting to make sure white people stay in the basement of society, where the left put them.

It’s really about how tightly America clings to the outmoded and utterly false fantasy of the Marxist Utopia already proven to be nonsense in China, the USSR, Cuba, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Venezuela, among others.

The some shopworn, childish fantasy has destroyed Britain and is doing the same in the Scandinavian countries, but Leftists continue to believe that they can engineer the secular humanist dream if only Marx is “done right.”

They choose to ignore the the endemic lying and falsity and reliance on propaganda, the repression, the gulag, and the elitist lawlessness which is even now evidenced all around us, and most particularly in US government circles, and is only getting worse.

If hillary is elected, this whole utterly destructive fantasy will be taken to its ultimate conclusion, which is nothing less than social suicide.

Wanna bet? Omeliah, you need to go back to the $hit hole country from whence you came and take a look around That’s not what America needs to look like. Now just stay there!

Ohio, a state that has traditionally picked presidents but finds itself somewhat marginalized this year.

When Trump is winning a traditional battleground state, it is a marginalized state.

Let's marginalize a few more states.

It’s Team A vs. Team B

Team A: The MSM, The GOPe, The DNC, The Hillary Campaign, The Clinton Foundation.

Team B: Donald Trump, Mike Pence, The Trump Campaign, Free Republic, Julian Assange, James O’Keefe, Reddit, Twitter, Wikileaks.

Team B will win if we all just get off our behinds and VOTE!

The Lost Angeles Endtimes should worry more about North Korea detonating a nuke over Los Angeles County than about Donald Trump, a man they would be fortunate to have as their President.

The “old America” was a place where you could graduate from high school, get a job, get married , buy a starter house and build a life.

Or go to college for a very low price

Before the States of Arizona spent all it's money on welfare and health care for spongers and illegals, the state subsidized cost of a semester at University of Arizona or ASU was about 300.00 per semester

America was the land of opportunity and pretty much anyone wiling to work hard could achieve the American Dream.

Now young people can't afford to get married, much less buy a house.

Most are living their parents basements and can’t find a job.

Those that went to college find themselves unable to find a job and saddled with a crushing six figure student loan debt.

Welcome to Obama’s Amerika and the progressive’s Utopian dream world.

You called it correctly.

They’re completely delusional at that newspaper. If the Norks launched a nuke at Los Angeles, the Times would be more concerned about the rocket exhaust emissions...

Dittos! The liberals can never understand us. We love our freedom and tolerate them to theirs, they crave their licentious lifestyles and cannot stand the judgement they feel when we choose a moral lifestyle and won’t condone and promote theirs.

There is a place for them in our America, there is no place for us in their Amerika.
