Description
Have you ever stopped and wondered just what the holy fuck is wrong with American politics? Well, I'm going to explain because a lot of people just don't know. Inside the Republican party there is a Christian extremist group called "The Freedom Caucus" it is made up of 40 members who's identity is a well kept secret that even the democrats won't tell America for some reason.These 40 members of the house are all but guaranteed to keep their job no matter what happens because of a process called Gerrymandering. They have rigged the electoral system in their states in such a way it is almost impossible to vote them out of office. These 40 members are why the last three congress' have been the least productive sessions of congress in all of history.
They are there to vote down everything. They are united in one goal: To make the American government stop working except to spread more war. They are the ones who demanded the government shut down over raising the debt ceiling. They are the ones who keep demanding Benghazi hearings even through they know nothing will ever come of it. They are the ones who demanded that the Republicans try and repeal "Obamacare" 54 times since the law was put in place and once more this week because 55th time is the charm!
Not because they expect to accomplish anything, they just want to keep the government from doing anything at all by fighting these pointless, costly political battles. The Freedom Caucus is why John Beohner was so happy to leave his job as speaker of the house and why no republican wants to take his place when he leaves.
They are petulant man-children who would rather see America burn or be consumed by war than have it be anything other than a "Christian Nation." and those 40 people will keep trying to destroy America from the inside as long as they are in office.
If the world really wants America to stop waging endless war and creating horror around the world, they would be talking about this dark religious extremist cult that exists inside the American government every day and demanding that the members of the "Freedom Caucus" be exposed for what they are.
Instead they are one of the best kept secrets in American politics. There will never, ever be peace until the cancer of these religious fanatics is excised from the American government.

Southern Democrats insisted on protecting slavery in all the territories while many Northern Democrats resisted. The party split over the slavery issue in 1860 at its Presidential convention in Charleston, South Carolina.Northern Democrats nominated Stephen Douglas as their candidate, and Southern Democrats adopted a pro-slavery platform and nominated John C. Breckinridge in an election campaign that would be won by Abraham Lincoln and the newly formed Republican Party. After the Civil War, most white Southerners opposed Radical Reconstruction and the Republican Party's support of black civil and political rights.The Democratic Party identified itself as the "white man's party" and demonized the Republican Party as being "Negro dominated," even though whites were in control. Determined to re-capture the South, Southern Democrats "redeemed" state after state -- sometimes peacefully, other times by fraud and violence. By 1877, when Reconstruction was officially over, the Democratic Party controlled every Southern state.

Re: please do your research before posting things like this......
Right back atcha! You seem to have skipped the history class when they talked about how the Republican Party and the Democratic party switched platforms.
The Democrats who supported slavery became the Republicans who support wage-slavery today. Don't you think if what you think is true Republicans would be talking about it EVERY DAY to try and get black votes?
Let this teacher explain it to you like she explains it to her students:

Republicans don't support wage slavery, they actually want to raise wages and create more jobs. They also believe in tax relief to help grow the economy and create more jobs. they believe in less government spending as well. what does being african-american have to do with voting? people vote for who they think will run the country best. there is alot of democratic propaganda telling people that republicans dont care about the common worker, are only looking out for themselves, want to cut welfare programs...etc. these are not true (at least to a many of republicans) the republican stance is different then the democratic stance. republicans want to increase jobs and pay so that people who can work will not have to go on welfare because their pay is too low, where as the democrats want to throw money at the problem to "make" it go away. welfare and disability payments where much more livable than they are today and they are being cut all the time. republicans want to boost the economy and create more jobs. I would suggest looking at the republican AND democratic platforms before you make decisions about who you will vote for. we hold our future in our hands each election, so it is better to be completely informed before you vote

Re: "Republicans don't support wage slavery, they actually want to raise wages and create more jobs."
You see your mistake is that you think the Repulican party of today is the reasonable, responsible Republican party like we had under Regan, but it's not.
The Republican party has been taken over by crazy people. There is a reason that the /platform is the same thing they have had since 2012, no one from 2012 when we had even remotely reasonable regulation is in the party's high ranks any more.
The party has been taken over by nutjobs so insane, so right wing, that the people running for the Republican candidacy are having a meeting Nov 1st without the actual Republican Party (The RNC) to figure out what the future debates will be. They are uninviting the Republican Party from the Republican Party Primary because the RNC isn't right wing enough.
The candidates are refusing to take meetings with the RNC and are planning on holding their own debates with the moderators they want, in the places they want, for how long they want.
Ted Cruz wants Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Mark Levin to moderate the debates because they are the only ones "Republican enough." for him.
Don't make the mistake of thinking the Republican Party this year represents Republican ideals. They don't. Not in any way, shape or form.
They are puppets of the banks and corporate America willing to say or do anything to get elected and protect the power structure of the wealthy.
That is why I am voting for Bernie Sanders. Of all the people running, he is the person who most represents the Republican ideals I grew up with, which is really fucking sad.

XD i know right. i feel like people will just blindly accept anything people/media tells them. i feel like people will often ignore facts to suit there agenda. i would rather have the whole truth, the positive and the negative. but blaming someone else for your mistakes is really childish.

completely true, people are made to believe that all of America's problems are caused by republican policies.
Everyone has faults, but blaming it solely on someone is not at all fair.

Its really sad to me that people will believe what the media tells them is right and who is best without even questioning it. I hope that people will think for themselves this election. there is so much propaganda against republicans it is ridiculous, 99.999% of which is false. its sad that people always want to blame others for their mistakes. I love how the people when they talk about obama say that he never should have been president when they where the ones who voted him in XD

Is it any surprise that many of the states that make up the base of the GOP are the states that made up the Confederacy.
