Dallas News Explains Why it Will Not Recommend A POTUS Candidate
2020-02-17
I don't suppose it's because they think none of the candidates is worthy?
[Dallas News] If asked to identify one thing that has made this country unique and a model for the world, we would say this: From the start, this nation was always an idea, a concept about liberty that had both practical implications for how people live and that also invited a perpetual debate about how society should be organized to expand and safeguard our rights.
We hold these truths to be self-evident...
Today, the United States is in the midst of a fresh presidential election and there is more at stake than the future of one candidate, than the ability of one party or the other to control the levers of power in Washington since there seems to be little difference between the lever controllers. The country is at a crossroads, a point at which its voters will make crucial decisions about such fundamental issues as what role government should play in our lives, how officials will lead this large and fractious country, when we should build and sustain international alliances, and even the very ideas we should be known for in the world.

#9  I don't blame them for not endorsing. Who wants their brand associated with that gang of Democratic losers.

#8  “Besides, if we were to endorse Trump, those cool kids who moved in from California won’t like us anymore.”

I don’t see professionalism and comity on the ballot.

#5  With this sort of pompous drivel the newspaper proves it should go out of business.

A succinct statement of Democrat tactics since long before "baskets of deplorables".

#3  The news paper stands for Liberty but I do not recall them being against Obama Care driven down America’s throat, against droning American citizens without due process, the illegal surveillance of Americans, sanctuary cities ignoring the rule of law .... but somehow surprisingly America is so bifurcated they cannot decide who best to lead the country.

#2  We stand here with Abraham Lincoln, who reminded us in his second inaugural address, as a long and brutal civil war was coming to a close, that we should proceed with "malice toward none, with charity toward all."

Which got us the Klan and nearly a hundred years of ignoring the 14th and 15th Amendment was writ. We live today with the consequences of that.

In the first American Civil War which was our War of Independence, tens of thousands of Loyalists were scattered to Canada, Bermuda, and points elsewhere in the Empire. The snakes were removed from the nest before the ratification of the Constitution.
