Why would anyone automatically assume that young people are Democrats? I mean, I know they generally are, but why? Is it because they have better ideas than Republicans? No. But Republicans have this mistaken identity as old business men, when nothing could be further from the truth.
My feeling is that, in the beginning, Democrats were hip and cool. John F. Kennedy was young, handsome and cool. But he was also for lower taxes. Republicans have been portrayed as rich white guys, but isn’t that also true of most Democrats? Look at John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Ted Turner, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and so on. They don’t come any whiter than that. And if you look at Republicans, the head of the party is Michael Steele! I guess he’s just not the right kind of black guy.
So why aren’t conservatives considered cool? After all, we relish FREEDOM. Isn’t that what young kids want? Shouldn’t they be against a repressive government of old people? I am not saying there isn’t a lot of that with Republicans, but you get a better chance of less government with one of them than you do with a raving liberal like Nancy Pelosi or Barney Frank.
See, I think the Democrats’ growing problem is this; they want to control everything as if they can. Make a small change in the economic policy and it flows out in various ways, too numerous to mention. In fact, make a law here and who knows how it will affect something that legislators never even considered? How many times have we heard about the law of unintended consequences?
Health insurance: Blue Cross/Blue Shield is advertising for health insurance. Pay for my own health insurance? What a concept. Since when has this ever been meant to be FREE? NEVER except to the socialists who are tryng to nationalize another sector of the American ecnonomy and destroy it.
So my last thought today is this; have Democrats demonized one to many times? Who are the bad guys? Wal-mart. oil companies, car companies, insurance companies, real estate companies, financial institutions, Starbucks, smokers, trans-fat eaters, etc. Who is left that are friends to the Democrat party? One or two people? Look at it this way. Check the list. You are probably a member of at least one of the target groups on the Democrat enemies list or are associated with and/or patronize at least one of them. I think that is why people are starting to wake up… I hope! Everyone is an enemy of this administration which is why they refuse to listen to us.
