27. And, thank YOU very much.
Just as the right believes this country would be peachy if only they could have their way, democratic voters are under a similar misconception even though their chosen has been too embarrassed or strategic to address the voting issues of '04. When the studies came out that black men were further disadvantaged by rabid illegal immigration, what did Hillary say? First she rallied with the Irish white immigrants, then those of color and last I heard she was for a fence. Basically she's vying for position and where does that leave us OR the illegal immigrant? Minorities may continue to lose.

As long as both sides are so misled we won't have the representation we deserve. Politicians vying for power trade away our interests because they 'have' to and voters stupidly accept that as part of the majority game. What good will the majority do me if democratic legislation turns out to be watered down, differently marketed versions of what the republicans would've done anyway? Or, if like Clinton I, they embrace and endorse right-leaning policies as their own?
