No, that is what I said, though you seem to ignore data because you clearly don't understand that it is still a long way away from the first primary and Sanders has been closing the gap rather quickly as Hillary has been seeing her support among Democrats fall. Not sure why this logic is lost on you, but whatever, you keep thinking Hillary is the one that is highly favored by Democrats and continue to ignore that her poll numbers are dropping.
So who is it that is being a sheep to the parties? If it is referring to me, then you are mistaken.
You can't comprehend the data that she is currently the front runner?

Reason: personal
So suddenly the left thinks it's ok to mix religion and politics. Noted.
Okay people it's time to raise your Jesus Flag!
These people crack me up.....Jesus can stand now, no Jesus sit down!
Got to love it when people take quotes of Jesus and not the WHOLE message......Jesus would NEVER have supported the government making us independent people.

All we have to do is look at low income communities once the money stops flowing the people will riot and kill each other.
The Pope should have addressed young people, on having too many children at a young age with no family structure and setting up their lives for working and being successful. Not telling another group to step up and handout more to our government to create more wars or was it for taking care of the planet.
Why do people think the government is the answer to our social issues?

When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. People's first instinct seems to be "there should be a law...", meaning government force should be used to "solve" a problem. It's like trying to solve your relationship problems by raping...you can't force people to love you or feel attracted to you.
Capitalism is the greatest economic model in human history and is responsible for lifting billions out of poverty. The poorest person on this planet is better off than the poorest person on Earth in the 1600s, around the time capitalism was developed.
That said, it is time for the GOP to recognize that Capitalism and free markets, for all of its benefits, still leaves people behind and to heed the words of Jesus when he said "the poor you will always have with you." (Mark 14:7)
This is why I am voting for John Kasich, he is a man with sound conservative principles, but has consistently acknowledged that our system still leaves people behind and that they need to be helped.
Ah, so you give capitalism the credit for this advance; got it.
Since you stated that capitalism was in the 1600s, why is it that people were better off in the 1500s, before capitalism was developed, than they were in the bronze age?
As one can see, it has nothing to do with capitalism. It's about human advances in general.

In a week when the CEO of VW had to resign because the company intentionally put software on cars that would negate pollution controls, except when tested; and, in a week that a CEO of a peanut company, what knowingly sold contaminated peanuts, got 28 years in jail, it is astounding that people still think that we don't need laws and regulations governing business practices.
The top 1 percent have the best houses, the best educations, the best doctors, and the best lifestyles, but there is one thing that money doesn’t seem to have bought: an understanding that their fate is bound up with how the other 99 percent live. Throughout history, this is something that the top 1 percent eventually do learn. Too late.

When it comes to the Pope; I would not listen to a hypocrite that sits in a very regulated gaited community, on a pile of money, and tells the rest of the world how to spend their dollars. The man sounds like he cares about the poor; but the Vatican has set a terrible example for the rest of us to follow. I wonder if they have taken any Moslem refugees - I doubt it. Can anybody tell me why God or God's servants need money?

There are laws and it didn't keep those 2 from doing what they did. What do you suggest?
