      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Most white people from the 19th century would be considered racist today. Read some of the comments Lincoln made about blacks sometime. They would come straight from the mouths of white supremacist today and yet people tend to glance over his comments.

Doesn't it feel good to be a supporter of Putins favorite candidate, Lilpix, the one the Russians worked to help elect.
          That’s a great tin foil hat conspiracy you got going on there. Care to teach advertisers the tricks used? They would sure love to know a few dozen people and a few thousand dollars could change up a national election.

          The tin foil hat is a reference to those who believe their own government is out to get them, Lilpix, you know, like Trump supporters, not patriots. As far as the economy goes, as usual, a republican administration inherited the recovery from the Democrat who had to clean up the mess from the last republican administration.
          Says the person inventing conspiracy theories whole cloth without a shrewd of evidence to support it. It is cute though how the tune democrats sung was ‘this is the new normal’ and now they suddenly want to take credit for the opposite of ‘the new normal’. Keep your tin foil hat securely fashioned upon your head because your opponents think the government is incompetent, not necessarily ‘evil’.

            Considering Thomas Jefferson's beliefs concerning limited government (especially the federal government), tracing their roots back to him has always been a stretch.

            Anywho... From their article "History of the United States Democratic Party"

            From History.com:

            Source: Democratic Party


            JACKSONIAN DEMOCRATS

            In the highly controversial presidential election of 1824, four Democratic-Republican candidates ran against each other. Though Andrew Jackson won the popular vote and 99 electoral votes, the lack of an electoral majority threw the election to the House of Representatives, which ended up giving the victory to John Quincy Adams.

            In response, New York Senator Martin van Buren helped build a new political organization, the Democratic Party, to back Jackson, who defeated Adams easily in 1828.
