False. Johnson and Weld are pro-choice and pro-gay marriage. I think a lot of Democrats are uncomfortable with Hillary and would consider voting Libertarian.

Actually, Johnson according to some polling data is picking up more Democrats then Republicans. But the majority of his support comes from independents where is he regularly winning 20-25%. He is also polling 20-25% with millennials.

"Hardworking, law abiding immigrants should be able to get a work visa – but not a green card nor citizenship – as easily as possible. That way a background check can be performed and the applicable taxes can be paid. They won’t get the right to vote or anything else but the government can at least stop wasting resources apprehending them."
Or put their children in public schools or have chilred here for the sole purpose of obtaining citizenship.


If they violate the T & C immediate deportations.

Exclusive: Donald Trump's companies have sought visas to import at least 1,100 workers | Reuters
Because we have millions of people out of work, and we don't need to import more workers. Pretty soon the jobs are going to be gone, so we definitely don't need to import people to come here to get on welfare. We have our own citizens to take care of.

Then so be it.
I get to what you're saying. Just skip the presidential slot on the ballot and vote for the other people and/or propositions. I may do that too. My husband thinks Hillary will be a disaster as a president, but I don't think she would be that bad. It would be nice if the Republicans stopped going after her for everything they think she did, because every time they do go after her and can't find proof it plays into her vast right-wing conspiracy theory. Of course they aren't going to find anything on her. She's a lawyer!

Maybe the email thing could be problematic since Lynch is now under the microscope for the improper meeting with Bill Clinton.

What about the minimum wage?
Social programs?
Regulated capitalism?
Regulated Free Trade?


Pro-choice and pro-gay marriage are the only two things they agree on.

If one is ideologically a Democrat - it is very difficult to vote for the party of the Koch Brothers.


Sorry.

Minimum wage should be left up to the States and base it off of inflation of COL in the State. Trade should be free, but with reduced corporation, political, and industry influences.

Social Welfare is ingrained in our country and something that can't go away until we change corruption in politics and encourage States to improve quality of life and lower cost lid living. Additionally, Federal goverment has to lower the debt, curb spending, and do away with the income tax.

Not exactly the democratic platform.


States rights is a right-wing thing.
