Americans have had over 200 years to prove democracy can work, but...

[Theowl32]

You always was a democracy: One man one vote. You vote for voting men who elect the president = federal principle.

Wrong....and you are ignorant.

 

[zaangalewa]

Actually you don't. ...

Wrong. The first print of the declaration of independence of the USA in the USA was in German. This declaration was a sensation comparable with the first flight to the moon. Believe me: You are a democracy and I hope everyone in the USA is a democrat what doesn't mean to be a member of the political party "the Democrats". That's another thing.

Leftists, like Nazis cannot be reasoned with.

Sorry to break it to ya.

And freedom was never 'Free"

Sorry to break it to ya

If the alternative is that every lazy-ass loser in the country can vote themselves a handful of what I earned? You bet your ass!



.

Be careful what you wish for.

No, but those that are educated about the issues. I say no one on any government program or handout should be allowed to vote.

It's all about class warfare or race thing with you people.

"You people" who people?

 

[Unkotare]

.... I say no one on any government program or handout should be allowed to vote.

....

So, no one collecting Social Security could vote? How do you think that would go over with perhaps the most consistent voting block?

 

[Blues Man]

That's what I said. The English language is funny. We say "Er hat keinen blauen Dunst" in such a case for example. Verbally translated: "He has no blue haze". Meaning: "He has no clue."

All languages have their own idioms

 

[Unkotare]

.... Believe me: ...

Believe YOU?! Why?

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

Poll tests were used during the Jim Crow era to disenfranchise black voters as an end run around the 15th Amendment.

I'm perfectly happy when dark skinned property owners vote.

 

[zaangalewa]

Wrong....and you are ignorant.

I know your Christmas wish for this year: a comfortable exchange brain. And my good old friend Frankenstein is a specialist in brain transplantations.

Are you perfectly happy with the idea of only the wealthy having a voice in our government "of the people, for the people, by the people"? As I said, be careful what you wish for.

 

[zaangalewa]

Believe YOU?! Why?

Because I'm right in this case and discussions about this fake-theme make not any sense at all.

 

[Unkotare]

Because I'm right ...

 

[zaangalewa]

Would be really interesting to know what's your real nationality. ¿Chinese?

When I said "funny" I was polite. "Ekelerregend" would be the German word - as well in your use of your language and your intentions.

Yes, and you've said it about a half dozen times now.

My real nationality is American. I believe I have mentioned this several times before.

I don't get the feeling that you have really thought it through.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

I don't get the feeling that you have really thought it through.

.



And your world demands that I think it through?

Come to my front door and we'll have a cup of coffee and discuss it.

Why would I need to go to your house for coffee?

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

Why would I need to go to your house for coffee?

.

Because I don't have an ignore button on my front door, and the ignore button is how I deal with someone who over-uses redundancy on me as if it were a weapon.
