Way to go Oregon! Censoring thought and critique

[Denny Crane]

Second, your link says Woodrow Wilson's quote was from 1909, well before Mussolini met Montessori - so if anything Mussolini was quoting Wilson, not the other way around.

Two peas in a pod, as the saying goes.

Trump seems to be left of Hillary on a number of issues. Certainly left of religious conservatives by a lot.

When you don't give a damn about the issues and choose and change your positions by random whim you are going to end up on the left sometimes. But not reliably so.

He's most reliably so. On trade, for one.

He's no Libertarian, that's for sure.

No way to ever know, but if Trump ran as a Democrat, he'd have beaten Hiliar in the primaries for YOUR party's nomination.

It's possible. Of course he'd have taken a completely different position on immigration if he was going to do that, but that's no problem for The Donald.

He also could have won the Libertarian nomination, if he'd decided to take roughly Libertarian positions. Since his core belief system is that he should be the center of attention, it's not a big problem for him to switch sides.

I'd love to see a bare knuckle brawl between 3 climate change deniers and 97 scientists.

He's consistently been against the trade agreements previous and current administrations have negotiated. I don't think that would change, and it wouldn't be appealing to Libertarians.

If Trump is trying to get republican votes, he wouldn't talk about raising taxes, raising the minimum wage, funding planned parenthood, and many other issues that cause concern among "conservatives." But you think he'd somehow morph those positions to be the opposite of what democrats want? Where's the logic in that?

This is pure horse shit, everyone knows that man can't intentionally or unintentionally change a climate. Only god can change a climate. If they really want to change Mars climate they should build churches there.

Ok... first of all, your boy Trump is a Mussolini fan:

Very good barf, I did post it backward. But look at that! The original National Socially took the queue from the Icon of American Progressivism.
Then the Next Icon of American Progressivism, took his queue from him, Mussolini, when implementing the NRA (National Recovery Act)

Popular historian Amity Shlaes stated:

"The NRA was the consummation of a thousand articles and a thousand trends. It was the ideas of Moley, the trade unions, Stuart Chase, Tugwell, Stalin, Insull, Teddy Roosevelt, Henry Ford, and Mussolini's Italian model all rolled into one."

Sort of funny though, how all these birds of a feather look to education to fill their vision.
"Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy, therefore, is education."
FDR

Now on the face of it, who can disagree? Not I and probably not you.
(However, it does remind me of Obama, chiding the class at Howard, vote give me more Democrats)

But I really don't think we should be educating children under control of the Federal government when the leaders have these sort of agendas in mind.
Education of children should be as individualist as possible to enable each child to become the best they can be as individual with differing aptitudes and strengths.
No mission at all in molding them to any agenda.
