They are as dumb as a box of rocks. They need to read the true history of the Dem party, Jefferson was not the nice person PC history makes him out to be. Dinesh D’Sousa’s Hillary’s America makes that very plain. He took down the Picture of Lincoln, and put up Jefferson’s he found in the back room of the main DNC HQ. And took it with him.

I'm not sure they teach History or Politics at UVA.
If she had balls she would fire on the spot!
Really. There so many idiots about nowadays.
There are great men like Thomas Jefferson who are looked down upon by lesser human beings.
