In my personal experience, the average dem really is this deranged, not just the lunatics who post on the internet. Scary.
What "more or better rights than citizens," specifically?

List/bulleted format or compare/contrast the undocumented immigrant right vs. the citizens right is preferred.

Do you think they will? There are some pretty gullible voters out there who'll believe anything a politician tells or promises them. Memories of the 2008 election and all the promises made during that one. Only one kept and now it's on shaky ground.

Biden doesn't want to go near the issue. He sided with the White parents in Wilmington Delaware who didn't want Black kids to be allowed to attend school in the White neighborhoods.



Now he tap dances all around it just like his apologists.

I'm really not here to discuss busing. I agree, it's a complicated issue that can't be clarified in 30 second snippets or whatever they had.

I just posted to explain why Biden ended up speaking the most last night.

Default Eric Stalwell needs to be put in “time out’”

Or maybe a playpen. Then ironically he made a reference to his two year-old. I thought, “why are acting like one”? Whatever support he had he lost last night. What a jack***!

Harris would confront him forcefully and directly, on that as well as every other creepy, ignorant, asinine thing he did or said. The dotard wouldn't know what hit him.

I hope this year brings a change of the guard in the Democratic party. I like Joe Biden, but it was clear last night that his time has passed. Kamala and Pete are the Democratic party's future.
I had been neutral on Harris, but after last night, she has jumped up a lot for me. I especially liked her 'food fight' comment--I just went, "Daaaaaaayummmmm!" Even Biden applauded her on that one.

Her general demeanor impresses me, and maybe that's coming from her being a prosecutor. But she does seem to have a good sense of when to push, and when to watch and wait. I think that would serve her well as a POTUS.

I thought Harris did a nice job, but I didn't care for that line about the food fight. It was clear she planned that for a point where inevitably several of 10 people would be talking over one another.

Harris interrupted other candidates just as much as eric did last night during the democratic party debate and after she admonished other candidates previously to not get into a "food fight" with each other turned right around and attacked biden as a racist.

Yet, harris was deemed the winner of the debate and her attack on biden celebrated.

Her parents were in graduate school and she lived a very middle class life, her outrage last night over being bused was just a setup to play a gotcha game with Biden. I live in California and there are lots of skeletons in Kamala's closet, when they come out I think she will be done. I support a Biden/ Harris ticket or Pete Buddigieg but if these idiots don't quit talking about eliminating private health insurance Trump will win by 10 or 15 points, of that I am 100% certain
I have a hard time believing she "rode the bus" to school..
