(63,960 posts)and the Vietnam war lasted for 7 years with Nixon. These protesters better change their venue to Milwaukee where the RNC convention is going to be, instead of Chicago for the Democratic Convention. Visions of 1968?????

(63,960 posts)to Randi Rhodes I post her podcasts on Liberal You Tubers, listen to her 25th April podcast. I got this from Randi. It's the GOP who did not do anything like send aid to Gaza. President Biden is not the villain it's Netanyahu and Hammas, both bad.

(21,765 posts)Did you expect Dems to haul his casket into the convention?
If not for his assassination, Kennedy would have won the nomination and beat Nixon easily.

(100,716 posts)Randi Rhodes has being seing the same comparisons . as well as the incumbant president's populace accomplishments
bringing senior Americans out of poverty with medicare etc .
the blowback of violence in the streets cops v protesters was voting
for nixon .
It's why Randi is encouraging anti war protesters to protest the RNC instead of the DNC .

(63,960 posts)Proud Patriot. Randi showed this clip from Fox News. I think a reporter was asking a protestor what does "from the river to the sea" mean the protestor did not know. The reporter told her the river is the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
There needs to be good information and not propaganda to be assimilated to these protestors.
