I guess that makes me right in line with 99% of Americans that ever lived.
What a bizarre statement.

What’s that? Being able to see an injustice and fight for the change of status quo?
If America wasn’t great there would still be a negro league. Blacks would not have advanced without the republicans fighting for them.

Does blowing up Irish kids count?

How does a person have this much time to post on a message board? Are you bedridden or something?

I really hope the left campaigns on America is not great.
And by the way, this just proves how the left is literally against anything Trump says, no matter what.

We were flawed men and women foolish enough to believe that we could govern ourselves. That everyone of all ethnic, religious, and racial background could live together in peace.
Sad!
Sad!

Capitalism, like communism, is exactly equal opportunity. Communism leads to equal amounts of misery. Check and history book. Capitalism, while not perfect, gives the possibility of upward mobility due to talent, ambition, and ability. What do you think Robinson was called up? So someone could make money. Capitalism in a nutshell.

Sorry but you are really not even trying to understand anyone. Go ahead and keep fighting the fruitless battle. The county is waking up and will leave you behind. Because 'Great' is associated with forward thinking, driven, and problem solving. You seem to be wrapped up in nothing of the sort. God speed.
