How Does Republican Platform Help Middle Class?

Certainly far closer to Goldwater than any current ones but more between AuH2O and Nelson Rockefeller. I imagine either would be considered as far left these days.

Actually Jefferson was using slaves to prop up a pretty exalted and privileged position ... for Jefferson.

YES! Public education is for the only thing not in the above list! For Democrat teachers to brainwash children into liberalism and atheism!

That happens to be complete bullshit as usual and a total misrepresentation of the facts.Today's so called Republicans (every since the coup by the Christian Cult of Ignorance that installed the pathetic puppet known as Ronald Reagan in office) has totally abandoned the ethics and principles that made it the Grand Old Party. Today is is simply another way to move money out of the gullible, pitiful Christian Cult of Ignorance and hopefully pick the pockets of everyone else too.There is no issue of liberalism in the US and has not been for a half a century, the issue is between Conservatives and the Fascist Republican Party.It is not a matter of atheism, it is Christianity and everything else against the Christian Cult of Ignorance.Public education is at least an attempt to avoid the Avoidance mind crippling that is the hallmark of the Christian Cult of Ignorance and their avoidance schools.

Yes, very much conservatives, but not Facists.I been there, I remember Hubert Humphrey.I really can't help it if the Christian Cult of Ignorance is also ignorant of the meaning of words or the ethics that helped create the Grand Old Party.

Actually, fifty years ago universal healthcare certainly was a major issue, and in fact it was something that Richard Nixon tried to get enacted.

Today's Republican Party is quite simply, ignorant; ignorant of reality, of history, of the meaning of words and their historic usage, of the very basis even of the Republican Party.As a long time Republican I find that sad and pitiful; the Grand Old Party has been reduced to a mob with but one battle cry... "What's in it for me?"Even there they are far too ignorant to even understand that their very actions simply assure their failure over the long term. It is little more than hero worship and demagoguery. It has become a party bereft of ethics or morality dedicated to perpetrating ignorance and fascism.

And so far you have not shown that racism is a justification. In each case it was not the racism that was the issue but rather that the acts of the parents as opposed to their beliefs were what was significant.It is the physical threat to the child, not the motivation, that is significant.Sorry but so far you have not been very convincing.AbE:Let me add that the court can also consider threats to others as well as directly to the child, but it is still not simply racist parents teaching racism.Edited by jar, : add threat to others

Winnipeg is NOT in the US last time I looked.Again, I have not said parental rights are absolute.Speech and belief though is very highly protected.

The con man is smart enough to know that his audience wants to be fooled, and that they are too ignorant to know they are being conned. No, being a citizen requires that we go beyond just what is good for "me", for the personal individual, and look towards what will be good for society. We are our brothers keepers.

Found a California order of preference reference.

quote:

---

3040. Order of preference
(a) Custody should be granted in the following order of preference according to the best interest of the child as provided in Sections 3011 and 3020:

​

(1) To both parents jointly pursuant to Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 3080) or to either parent. In making an order granting custody to either parent, the court shall consider, among other factors, which parent is more likely to allow the child frequent and continuing contact with the noncustodial parent, consistent with Section 3011 and 3020, and shall not prefer a parent as custodian because of that parent's sex. The court, in its discretion, may require the parents to submit to the court a plan for the implementation of the custody order.

​

(2) If to neither parent, to the person or persons in whose home the child has been living in a wholesome and stable environment.

​

(3) To any other person or persons deemed by the court to be suitable and able to provide adequate and proper care and guidance for the child.

​

(b) This section establishes neither a preference nor a presumption for or against joint legal custody, joint physical custody, or sole custody, but allows the court and the family the widest discretion to choose a parenting plan that is in the best interest of the child.

And the "Us" should be expanded based on the specifics of the issue.

Of course it is allowable. In fact I'd say it was essential.

That's because you likely have never read the Constitution.It is Article 1 Section 8.

quote:

---

Section 8 - Powers of Congress

​

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

​

...

​

To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

But that is to be expected. It seems you know as little about history or our nations origins as you do about the Bible or Christianity.

HUH?Utter nonsense Froggie, children do not have the right to NOT hear what their parents say. Or what their teachers say. Or what their pastors say.Children do NOT have equal rights.
