Seriously, thanks for the information on Saul Alinsky. Am I as well information as you are about Alinsky? Hell no! Not by a long shot, but I am not stupid. The unmistakable impression that the Republicans are throwing out there is that President Obama, and Hillary Clinton are walking lock step with Alinsky. Alinsky is a communist. Therefore, the logical conclusion is President Obama and Hillary Clinton will lead this country to communism.

Even on some of the posts here that referenced Alinsky, also gave that same impression. Some said that President Obama was following Alinsky's steps toward radicalism. If you knew the steps, you would see that. So, I printed steps. Everyone to an extent is following the steps. Say what you mean, and mean what you say. Following Alinsky's steps, and how to deal with an "enemy", doesn't mean you agree with his political leaning. Calling the other or both parties an "enemy", is ridiculous.

What I would like to see is all the negative ads stopped. That is impossible but, at least, don't try to mislead people. The Republicans tying to tie President Obama, and Hillary Clinton to Communism by saying they are followers of Alinsky is disingenuous at best.

Bernie Sanders hasn't, and doesn't intend to use negative ads in the primaries with Hillary, and the other Democrats running for president. I am looking forward to a discussion on the issues, rather than trying to defend yourself from misleading negative ads.

I am sorry. Trump is making the Republicans look like a circus full of clowns. Here is hoping his attitude changes, and the first debate is on the issues, and not all about him, and his silent majority followers.
