What would Ben Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, and Ronald Regan think of the 2016 Presidential Election, its issues, key turning points, and general decorum?

What response do you think one or more of them would give, if séance pulled from the beyond to comment on what we've seen in this 2016 election cycle?

* Madona Blow Jobs for Votes?

* Questionable 32 year old sexual misconduct charges dooming the opposition, even though the front runner is KNOWN to have intimidated rape victims into silence on multiple occasions?

* Presidential Debates with highly biased MSM moderators and the questions being given to one side prior to the debate?

* $$$$$$$$$ Saudi Interests -> Clinton Foundation -> DNC -> Democracy Partners -> Foval Group = "We have to do a better job of making our people do what they're supposed to do. Not asking them. Making them. Not expecting them and taking them for granted, but beating the **** out of them, then making them do it." .... Beating people to get votes..... This is Democracy??

* Massive Illegal Immigrant Voter Fraud PROVEN in multiple states, but not only no prosectued, not even halted!

* FBI refusing to do its duty in a case of clear security violations with serious national security consequences!

What advise do you think the Great Leaders would give, on how to repair/recover the country?

--- Ronald Regan: "Secretary Clinton, Tear down this WALL!"

(from another forum and another poster!)
--- Benedict Arnold: "Dear Sec. Clinton. Do you have any pointers for me?"

--- Abigail Adams: "Over two centuries of advancement for women, and THIS is the first woman we can find to put in the White House?"

Basket of Deportables now have actually a champion who voices their fear/concern/prejudice and false equivalency is now actually a thing...which is confused with fair and balanced!

Jefferson would think about how clean and well mannered this election is compared to his. Helps to learn your history....
 
--- Teddy Roosevelt: "I explained to you long ago, 'To anger a conservative, lie to him. To anger a liberal, tell him the truth.' The only candidate in the pack worth a damn was Jim Webb!"

Since no one has died in a duel, or been beaten with a cane, I think you are correct.
A duel between Trump and Clinton, might have a positive outcome, they could both be killed!
 
--- Nixon: "My Gods Hillary, by comparison, what I did was child's play. It was bad enough when the MSM and the Democrats practiced double standards... now they've got NO STANDARDS!"
 
Gover Cleveland: "Who gives a ****... pass the gravy!"

Yep... I was thinking Taft when I wrote that but somehow came out Grover. I got the two mixed up.

Strange. I've noticed the right's fetish for Reagan dying out and being replaced by T.R. Sadly, T.R. would despise today's right even more than Reagan would. The latter would just sulk about being called a "RINO" and perhaps go back to acting.


Back? Hah.
 
Abe Lincoln: "This election is Whigged!"
 
Dwight Eisenhower: "My Lord!, I feared the 'Military Industrial Complex', when, in hindsight, I should have warned of the 'Frankfurt School', Public Employee Unions, and the Democratic Party Corruption Machine!"
 
Dwight Eisenhower: "Hillary, I am appalled at your employment of the "Dirty Tricks" being done with your money by the 'Democracy Partners' and the 'Foval Group'!

Beating Illegal Immigrants to get them to participate in Voter Fraud!??

You're flooding the Nation with Illegals during a WAR? Just so you can beat them into becoming Fraud Voter Slaves?

You're a sick, sad, twisted woman!

I explained long ago:

Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.

A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.

You do not lead by hitting people over the head - that's assault, not leadership.

Globalist Granny would need a podium to lean on at the end of 20 paces. :)
 
Leonidas of Sparta: "Trump.... Think!.... Then Speak!"


(Actually, by historical accounts, he probably would have figured out a way to convey the same meaning with less than FOUR whole words!)

George Washington: "Long ago, I said all that needs to be said of this... situation.

Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.

If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.

To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace.

Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism.

It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.

I am horrified, and greatly disappointed.

My Prayers for you all. - In Humility, George.

Thomas Jefferson: "Hillary, You want Gun Control and have stated that the website Brietbart has "No Right to Exist!"

I told my nation long ago, and most Americans today would still agree with me:

I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it.

Lincoln would be pretty much blown away by the latest crop of HDTV sets.

"I've never even seen a TV, or electricity, but what a picture! The blacks are so black, and the HDR really brings out the detail!"
 
If there is a parallel universe where George Washington or Abraham Lincoln are forever the age they were when they died here, they would probably look on and have a stroke and die immediately.
