Hillary Will Fight Hatred, Fear And Anger With Love

The Democrats' National Security Vulnerability

"The disconnect between President Obama and the American public on the urgency of the ISIS threat is a problem for his party in 2016, especially for Hillary Clinton.
"Democrats are at risk of politically marginalizing themselves on national security in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election, catering to a base that seems disconnected from the growing anxiety that the public feels over the threat from Islamic terrorism. During a month when a horrific terrorist attack killed 130 in Paris and a homegrown, ISIS-inspired attack killed 14 in San Bernardino, California, the Democratic Party's major focus has been on climate change and gun control. ...
"The big question now is how long Clinton will be content to ride Obama's coat-tails. Most Democrats are fully committed to the president's base-first strategy and don't see any benefit in Clinton distancing herself from a president whom she loyally served for four years. But on an issue that could define the election, she risks being defined by the base at a time when even some of the president's former supporters are beginning to question his approach." — Josh Kraushaar, National Journal

Another Bit of Progtard Weirdness.....

"Amazing, ain't it? The same crowd who get weepy over a handful of blacklisted Communist screenwriters, and outraged over Trump's call to halt Muslim immigration to the US, now want government drafting secret lists to deny people their rights. Progressives . . . " DiploMad 2.0

Even MSNBC Poll Shows Support for Immigration Ban

Non-whites Overwhelmingly Approve   
 

 CCC -The media keeps telling us that Trump's  immigration stance is “racist”.  Yet poll after poll show that some non-whites support his views on immigration even more than white people.  

When asked if Trump went to far when he called for a temporary ban on Muslim immigration, 87% of Latinos, 88% of “other,” and 96% of blacks answered “no.”  Among white people, 69% answered “no.” Overall, 76% of Americans answered “no.” Trump’s overall support has increased since making the comments.

Despite a relentless national media onslaught against Trump, his statements on Muslim immigration have made him more popular than ever. Bloomberg is reporting that two thirds of Republicans support a ban on Muslim immigration, and nearly 40% of Republicans say Trump’s comments will make them more likely to vote for him in the primary.  

Black Americans are opposed to immigration at even higher percentages than white Americans. Despite being called “racist” in the media, Trump may very well have the largest amount of black support of any Republican presidential candidate in over twenty years.  It sounds to me like Trump is just advocating mainstream views.

The lefties are beside themselves......


The far-left Southern Poverty Law Center released a statement saying Trump’s comment on Muslim immigration are “mainstreaming of hate and extremism.” Gee, what a surprise.

Indeed!

Liberals Seem To Never Run Out of Stupid Ideas

Campaign to Lower Voting Age to 16 Ignites a Debate


Another important step towards lowering the age of consent for progressive sexual perverts and bolstering the ranks of Low-Fo Voters.
NYT - Turning 16, for many teenagers, means finally driving a car without supervision or starting the college search. Now, a new campaign is hoping to add the ability to vote in local elections to the milestones of that age.
The campaign, called Vote16USA, which will be announced on Wednesday, aims to lower the voting age to 16 from 18 to spur civic engagement by younger Americans. But the push, by a nonpartisan group based in New York called Generation Citizen, which seeks to promote youth participation in politics, is igniting a debate about voter competency, adolescent decision making and whether allowing younger people to vote is the best way to politically engage teenagers.
Opponents say that teenagers are not mature enough to vote at 16, that they will not make informed decisions and that Vote16USA is a partisan push to get more liberals on voter rolls. Advocates, however, argue that lowering the voting age would increase turnout, allow teenagers to weigh in on issues that directly affect them and push schools to improve civic education.
“Given the general malaise that faces this country’s political process right now, this is a way to get young people actually excited,” said Scott Warren, executive director of Generation Citizen.
Generation Citizen hopes to raise $1 million in 2016 to finance its efforts. The group has already received $230,000, Mr. Warren said, adding that none of the money came from politicians or partisan organizations.
But some leading Democrats, most notably Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the House Democratic leader, have supported such changes, spurring partisan suspicions about the effort. In a speech this year before a meeting aimed at bringing young leaders and progressive organizations together, Ms. Pelosi said she was “all for” lowering the voting age to 16 or 17 “because when kids are in school, they’re so interested, they’re so engaged.”
Mark Tapson, the editor in chief of Truth Revolt, a conservative website, said that Ms. Pelosi was trying to “rope in young voters” who may be more inclined to vote with popular culture idols, who tend to be liberal.
“When they see, for example, that Barack Obama slow jams with Jimmy Fallon or hangs with Jay Z and Beyoncé, many 16-year-olds feel a connection with him not because of his policies necessarily but because that makes him cool.”

Democrat Rep. Carson: Terrorists Infiltrating Refugee Program ‘Doesn’t Concern Me,’ ‘Toxic’ Rhetoric Does

 Rep. Andre Carson (D-IN) – recipient of Ahmadiyya Muslim
Humanitarian Award – 2014
"Representative André Carson (D-IN) stated that terrorists infiltrating the refugee program “doesn’t concern me. What concerns me is you have the demagoguery taking place from people seeking to become president of the United States” that is “putting people, i.e. Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, and others into the line of fire” on Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper.” 
When asked about terrorist groups seeking to exploit the US’ refugee program, Carson answered, “I think the facts are clear. whenever you have huge groups of people, at any point in time, there will always, or possibly arguably be a minority of people who have ill intentions. That can be represented through different careers. You’re going to have bad cops, as we’re seeing evidence now with the growing number of police brutality cases that are finally being reported. You’re going to have bad educators, you’re going to bad firefighters, and attorneys and so on and so forth. 
And I think what is important to know is that most people who come here from other countries come with good intentions. they want to live the American Dream. That is not to say that we should not address the very real terrorist threa tthat exists internally, but it also says we should not now become a nation of bigots and go against the principles of our Founding Fathers.”

Gun Control and Terrorism:

"The San Bernardino terror couple didn't buy their guns at a gun show (making the effort to close the so-called gun-show loophole irrelevant); they weren't on the terrorism watch list (so the proposal to ban people on the list from buying guns wouldn't have stopped them); and Syed Farook passed a background check when he bought two handguns (rendering calls for universal background checks moot). ...
"But please don't confuse the anti-gun campaigners with facts. Their ignorance is invincible, and necessary to their crusade." —  National Review

ISIS Leader Nominated for TIME's 'Person of the Year'


TownHall
Every year, a few names on TIME's 'Person of the Year' list are bound to raise some eyebrows. The "Today Show" anchors unveiled TIME’s shortlist for 2015 live on Monday morning. Among the list were Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Travis Kalanick, the CEO of Uber, and Caitlyn Jenner. That last name isn’t the most controversial one of the list, however.
The TIME editors unveiled their nominees in alphabetical order. Here’s their first choice:
"Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, who as leader of ISIS has inspired followers to both fight in his self-declared caliphate of Iraq and Syria, and also stage attacks in countries like Tunisia and France."
Yes, a terror leader responsible for barbaric beheadings and countless murders has the potential to be in the same category as The Ebola Fighters, Pope Francis and The American Soldier. One of these things is not like the others.
Before going any further, it's worth noting that last year the magazine voted Al-Baghdadi as the world's "most dangerous man."
Also on the shortlist this year is Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, who TIME describes as a leader “seeking to bring his country out of pariah status and repair its sanction-crippled economy by pursuing a nuclear deal with the West.” I’d add a footnote: He blamed the U.S. and Israel for cultivating “the seeds of extremism and division” at the United Nations General Assembly in September.
Despite the disturbing list, the "Today" anchors gleefully encouraged their viewers to vote for their favorite nominee.
Trump got it right when he charged today's media for glamorizing terrorists.
