Maybe where we really need a “surge” is in neighborhoods where hope has been extinguished, where drugs and crime are the only means of rising above the “Gubment cheese”, where an once of real effort and commitment could make tons of difference in realizing the aspirations and potentials of these people. Perhaps it is time (at the grass roots level) we take the bedrock foundation of the Democrat party (the learned helpless), and build them up by expanding their horizons. The Democrats believe in the value of the poor and dependent strictly in their capacity to follow party line (keeping them in line by encouraging their belief in the futility of a future). the Democrats use class and race warfare against the republicans (while espousing AN “ETHICAL”, “MORALISTIC”, “PATERNALISTIC” line). Talk is always cheap, and the Democrats seem most adept (of recent) at demonstrating that truism. Why don’t the Republicans declare a campaign, and put the effort in to truly build people up (at the same time earning the loyalty of those who’ve shaken off their chains)? Why not attack where the opponent is strongest? . . . Think about destroying the paradigms that are the “principles” of the Democrat party; and that is that the people are to helples and stupid, and need the guidance of mother gubment.
