Quoted from Shadow
Even now that he is President, Barack Obama will not release any of his college records and many people who attended Columbia who were in the same class and took the same courses admit they never saw him in classes.


You are serious aren't you!  This was the OLD GOP line when they found that a black man
was their president and they needed some way... any way... no matter how ridiculous,
top discredit our nation's first Black President.

How about, he was really a Kenyan...
OR
He's really a Muslim???
And lets not forget Rev. Jeremiah Wright !!!  How about that!

"I guess you can fool some of the people all the time"


The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

Box only an idiot would think a college degree qualifies a person to be President of the USA. Obama never had a real job, never ran a large company, and never managed a state government. Based on your standards anyone with a college degree is qualified to be President. I could care less about his color, being a Muslim, or Rev Wright, I would like to see people who represent us in high government positions to be truthful, honest, and of moral character. Those requirements would eliminate about 3/4ths of our elected officials in Congress and in the government in both parties.

Former New York Gov. George Pataki tweeted Sunday morning that he will not vote for
fellow 2016 presidential candidate Donald Trump, the current front-runner.

Pataki said ahead of the Sunday talk shows that Trump is “unfit to be president.”

Quoted Text
Carson directly addressed this criticism May 4, 2015, the day he announced his run for president.

"Many people are critical of me because they say, ‘Carson wants to get rid of all the safety nets and welfare programs even though he must have benefited from them,’ " he said, according to a Politico account.
"This is a blatant lie. I have no desire to get rid of safety nets for people who need them. I have a strong desire to get rid of programs that create dependency in able-bodied people."

This is similar to his response to a question about how he would get his message to minority voters at February’s 2015 Conservative Political Action Conference.

"I’m not interested in getting rid of the safety net," he said. "I’m interested in getting rid of dependency, and I want us to find a way to allow people to excel in our society, and as more and more people hear that message, they will recognize who is truly on their side and who is trying to keep them suppressed and cultivate their votes."

Quoted from Box A Rox


because he knows that the government is all about keeping the bottom at the bottom but making it look like
"at least we did something"

the government is sooooo equal (or should be) that no one should be governmently assisted over anyone else to succeed...

it's not up to the government to decide who is more deserving of government help than another because that becomes
UNEQUAL access........

ANY special government program that is for a certain 'labeled' human is UNEQUAL....


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

In retrospect, the symbolism of the universe as a microcosm of clouds being churned
through a vortex is similar to the emancipation of women and the creation of the
first horseless carriage!

so there are 2 types of American citizens...now add anything you believe is wrong

1. citizen that does it all on their own, only using that government entity that is equally given across the spectrum of citizens

2. citizen that accepts government assistance that is not equally given across the spectrum of citizens

so, we are divided because the government labels and UNEQUALLY gives......

having regulations/rules as to IF one QUALIFIES government assistance is UNEQUAL....

Q.   Who Won The CNN Republican Debate?
A.    Hillary Clinton!


Quoted Text
Consider:
HILLARY is still the overwhelming favorite to be the Democratic nominee.
She still leads the Republicans in a strong majority of the general election head-to-head match-ups.
Even after two horrible media months in which she has endured 29 negative news stories while enjoying
just one positive one. All that, and she’s still mostly ahead.
