Sounds like he is a democrat. Uninformed. Otherwise he'd know about Rand Paul.

Unlike you he has actually talked to Ted Cruz and the Tea Party lunatics
Standing up for the Constitution is equates to lunacy? The Tea Party isn't the lunatic here.

absolutely nothing, but again. I 100% agree with you there.


That being said, there comes a point where playing nice is too much. Every time a black person, famous(legitimately or viral) comes out as conservative, their race gets bought up in part of the discussion from right wingers as " leaving the Democratic Plantation(Artur Davis, Stacey Dash, Mia Love, Will Hurd, Sen. Scott, J.C. Watts, Katrina Peirson, Erika Harold ).

Im all for race not mattering to the political identifications of an individual, but I just wanted to make it clear why some do mention it in threads like this.

13 year olds indoctrinated by our liberals controlling all schools should all be idealistic liberals or at least pretend to be one in school. When you gain wisdom, you understand that the overreach of liberalism is destructive to the soul.

The story about Stacey Dash wasn't that she was so embraced by the Right, it was that she was completely destroyed by the Left.

And all she did was say she liked Romney.

I applaud the decision.

I think everyone should give up their party affiliation and register as an Independent. I recently did this after being a registered Democrat for many years.

Everyone here should take lesson from this.

A 13 year old changes his mind and YOU think that is "news worthy?

It is no wonder some are called "low information voters"!

I recall when this young man first made the 'news' and the thread herein about it (it was short, two pages, and now locked).

Now, he has made the 'news' again. It rather smells like he was upset that his 5 minutes of fame were up, and he decided to make the 'news' yet again.

I predict that sometime next year he will again appear in the 'news' concerning his official endorsement of, well, somebody.
