Presumably you're not working class, the working class cannot afford the depressed wages and inflated rents that illegal immigration bring. Nor can the working class afford environmental policies designed to cause electricity prices to necessarily skyrocket.

The working class needs and does not have a political party that relates to them.

I'm not a Democrat, but as a member of a class of citizens excluded from writing and adopting the founding documents, I question their moral legitimacy.

Thank you.

You can not support American sovereignty and support a open border.

You can not claim you support education when you fight school choice and school vouchers.

You can not claim you support reducing energy cost when you block oil and gas development supporting the most expensive and inefficient energy source base on thing but emotion and ideology.

You can not claim you support reducing regulation when you pass a 2,500 page bill without reading and it have it create 20,000 pages of regulations and counting.

You can not claim you support immigration reform when you reward people who broke the law while you have fought every attempt to secure the border and lower legal immigration.

You can not claim you support personal choice and freedom when your side wants to tax everything and every action.

You can not claim you support the 2nd Amendment when every bill and law to restrict the 2nd Amendment has come from your party since the 1836 and has started a never ending wave of attacks since one the 2nd Amendment since 1934.

They claim they love America and are Americans but they dislike everything about this nation and want to change everything about it, its culture, its views, its values, its history, its heritage, its national language, its Constitution and the power and role of government through activist judges and abuse of power via government agencies like the IRS, EPA, ATF, Department of Education ect to get what they want..

How true of a statement.

Women or black? You are aware that were meant to be applied to all person and the founders did their best to end slavery right?

It been closer to 6 decades. Why do think they want to add 30,000,000 new entitlement voters to voter rolls via amnesty?

DO conservatives not want illegal immigrants to push down labor costs while simultaneously wanting to pretend they want them gone?

I'm sitting in here Texas and the Republicans have not done ONE thing to prevent illegal immigration. Lots of rhetoric but no action. Yours are a bunch of hypocrites.

Warren Buffet is a democrat now? He's supported both sides of aisles.... But hey..... If your side is giving him away I think liberals will take him.
