Quote:I would suggest watching them in their own words. One of the things that O'Malley "brags" about is his supposed change in Baltimore. Why not really do the research regarding that?


If you actually watch his speech, his talking points are pretty close to Bernie Sander's talking points. Blame and demonize the "evil rich" and "make them pay their fair share". In other words "give more free stuff" to people and tax the "evil rich" in order to pay for it.


There is nothing in his message that unites the people of our country, but plenty more that divides us. That's a common theme among the democrat candidates. The video that I linked demonstrates that. I'll put up another thread soon that will feature republicans giving their message. I would point out one thing. The message given my most republican candidates talks about America's greatness and the American dream. They actually give a true message of hope, and have an appreciation for the fact that someone can work their way up.


I personally tend to believe the republican message. In every single job that I had, I got on the bottom rung of the ladder, and climbed up to the top. It wasn't government regulation that enabled me to earn promotions and enabled me to move into higher positions and thus earn higher wages. It was because of my own hard work. Every single American citizen has every bit of opportunity to achieve what I have achieved in my life time. My "success" in life wasn't given to me and I certainly don't feel like any of it was "deserved". I worked for everything that I have.


The democrat candidates want that to be a "given".
