Here is what you have to understand. The democrat left, led by a former President, wants to "fundamentally change the country." Those are their words, not mine. Not "improve the country," not "advance the country more in line with its founding principles," not make this a "better country," or a "greater country." But "fundamentally change." Why the fk would you "fundamentally change" the best country in the world. The country that has taken millions out out poverty around the globe. The country that ended slavery as we know it. The country where a middle class scrawny black man, with a funny name (he said something like that) can become The President. A country where a bartender can become a Congresswoman. A country where a refugee from a war torn country can become a Congresswoman. Etc. Etc.
What fundamental changes you ask?
1) Eliminate the electoral college -- allowing two or 3 states or regions to win every election;
2) Add two "states" which would all but guarantee their permanent control of the legislative branch.
3) Eliminate the filibuster -- the one legislative mechanism which required at least some consensus with the minority party.
4) Pack the Supreme Court with justices who will decide cases the way they want, making it a mini legislative body.
Now under those circumstances, if you are a "red" state why would you stick around? If the Democrats win in November we will be as close to a civil war as we were during the actual civil war.
Very well said!
