Everyone is subject to the propaganda of political Parties...

But no one has been more propagandized than those Republicans that have bought into the many "scandals" of Hillary Clinton and the lies about Barack Obama being born in Kenya and that he is a Muslim.

Propaganda comes from all sides and from all angles but the naivete of Republican voters is unmatched. There is no conspiracy they are not ready to believe, if it is about Hillary Clinton.

Unfortunately, the propaganda has deeply divided our country. The lies about Benghazi and the politically motivated "email scandal" and the constant media declarations that Hillary is not "honest or trustworthy" have taken their toll. It has divided our nation to the point that it may not be possible to ever be united?

Republicans now accept from their nominee comments that he respects Vladimir Putin more than he respects Barack Obama. They threaten 2nd Amendment solutions. They have reached the dangerous point where they can ignore facts if they conflict with their Party's propaganda. It is not a good place to be.
