While canvassing for Hillary with a friend in a small town outside Keene, NH, we learned from a public school teacher, who reads Breitbart, that Obama is: A) bringing the Caliphate to the U.S.; and B) Hillary will open the doors to immigrants and we will lose our country. Very informative. Next week, we’ll be bringing tin-foil hats to distribute during canvassing. Fortunately, we also met former Bernie supporters who are all in for Hillary and even took lawn signs. It’s always an adventure in NH. Please join us next week … and remember those tin-foil hats.
Please share widely!
…at a grocery store. Could not believe my ears. Two women we talking about the debate. I assumed they were Clinton supporters. Far from it. They were angry that Trump was getting a rough time from Lester Holt and had some conspiracy theory that every time Clinton touched he face (or scratched or something), Holt would interrupt and challenge Trump. Then they spoke about some sort of hidden microphone where Clinton was getting coached on some wireless device.
We had to let a canvasser go who kept saying “fuck Obama” to people on the streets. Not the way to win anyone over for the cause….
is equivalent neither to sanity or intelligence.
That’s not to say I don’t have plenty of intelligent colleagues that vote or have voted Republican. I do. But it’s hard for argue that a sensible person can support Trump. One of my colleagues who describes himself as a capitalist, for example, refuses to vote for Trump and will probably vote for Clinton. He refused to sign the petition for the Millionaire’s Tax on ideological grounds (which I can respect), but he won’t vote for Trump.
…to introduce litmus tests for public school teachers since they can so easily be abused and subjective, it seems to me there ought to be at least some standard for living in the real world to be qualified to teach our children.
and passing MTEL.
…but per the example above that apparently doesn’t guarantee that teachers have some grounding in reality. Once again TBD downrates without explanation so maybe he wouldn’t hate to have a litmus test, or doesn’t think teachers should live in the real world? Who knows?!
…are the numbers of current police officers and citizens who have been in the military who want “less government” and who do not trust our government.
…are more aware of its faults, redundancies, and failures.
Sometimes being on the receiving end of government ‘help’ is the fastest way to become a Libertarian.
And the rest of us who have worked with the private sector can say the same, or worse. Have these people never had to deal with an Internet provider, a health insurance company, or credit card company?
And I have been the person you named in the private sector….
BUT. There is some ability to get satisfaction there. In government, it is often take it, or leave it, or shrug.
In business, it’s all too often “take it or leave it”.
begin with the phrase “To serve you better…” from your insurer or oligopoly service provider.
