Ok Mark, I'm calling out your tactic of firing potshots and shifting positions hoping everyone else stays quiet and your last word wins. I've asked some questions, now answer up or I will consider your posts immaterial. I've remained quiet for a quite a while and observed how you lob in your disruptive comments from a distance, hoping to cause confusion then leaving without ever having revealing where exactly you stand. Let's summarize what's occurred here:
1. Video link showing ill-informed students who have obviously passed high-school and been accepted into college without some very basic knowledge of American History
2. You challenge the substance of the video and those who produced it. I ask you to substantiate your challenge, no reply.
3. Claims about John Adams position on voting are made and evidence requested. I supply a quote linking his position to the initial claim.
4. You acknowledge the connection but try to throw in a twist and imply that the Tea Party is what he had in mind.
5. I provide a more obvious manifestation of his concern, (i.e. millions of minorities living in poverty and trapped in a horrible system of poor education, poor services and limited opportunity who continue to vote for the party that has held them there for decades)
6. You say that they can hardly be accused of what I've just accused them of (voting for the people who have an interest in keeping them there), but once again nothing to support your comment. Why can't they be accused of being the people Adams was referring to?
Others here have clearly laid out their position, you have not. I have no problem hearing an opposing opinion. I enjoy reading the back and forth of people who are willing to step in and offer up their thoughts, but what you have done here in no way contributes to the conversation.
