There’s the old one — a distinction not of age alone, but cultural perspective and outlook — that Trump appeals to as he courts white, rural voters and social conservatives. His support base is heavy with voters uneasy with the turns the country has taken in recent years and, broadly speaking, more comfortable with an era when white men like Trump ran things.


You know those white folks who created things like the light bulb, the telephone, the airplane, the assembly line, the computer, the internet, the ability to travel in space, the Constitution. You know those little things.

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!

They barely even try and hide their hatred of white people.

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.

The other night, I watched the cable channel Buzzr (spelled correctly) which airs game shows from prior decades. I watched “What’s My Line” with a host named John Daly who I thought was utterly fantastic and his command of the English language was sensational. To hear women such as Arlene Francis speak was inspiring. There was class, dignity and pride. I don’t know these people political perspectives but they oozed charm. Then I switched channels and came across typical modern-day crass and the dumbing down of America was surpassed only by the self-professed progressives who are nothing more than parasites.

Command and control central government works very well. Look at Argentina, Venezuela, East Germany, North Korea and the Soviet Union for great examples.

“This election is much more than Trump vs. Clinton. It’s old America vs. new America”

Further brainwashing, including here, “America”, never the United States.

This election is freedom vs slavery, simple as that.

It’s solid strong America vs absolute weakened chaos.

I ask the Times to consider one thing .

If this is just about Old White America supporting Trump

Why do we have allies that use to be consider “not on our side” like Anonymous and Wikileaks going after Hillary?,

why is Reddit a hotbed of Trump support?

..these are hardly the domains of Old White America

“......Donald Trump spoke to a largely white audience.....” I stopped reading right there.

This election is much more than Trump vs. Clinton

It's old legislative America vs. new administrative America.

It's constitutional government vs. unconstitutional government.
