If the Democratic Party decides to ignore the concerns of minority voters to get white 'Rust Belt'

207. I completely agree with you on the racist issue, but not the workers in the rust belt.

I grew up in PA. STEEL COUNTRY. I still lived there when Bethlehem Steel, and US Steel closed their factories. Many of the people I knew well lost their jobs, good jobs where they made really good money. A lot of them were in their late 40's and couldn't find any job, let alone one paying comparable wages. Lots of people who still live there were young then but still looked forward to getting job in a factory..like dad did. THEY are still kidding themselves into believing those kind of jobs will return one day. The Dems SHOULD'T lie to them like the Con did, because they will soon realize he was lying to them and they'll be more pissed off then they were before the Con came on the scene. I have herd some Dems say the solution to some of the problems is rebuilding our infrastructure, and I think that's true. For the younger crowd, I have to turn to the many, many employers who state they have jobs to fill but none of the applicants have the skills necessary to do what they need. SOMEBODY, and I'm not even sure who, started the fiction that EVERYBODY NEEEDS TO GO TO COLLEGE! We need to promote tech schools. Job seekers do need some education beyond high school, but I believe lot of them want the hands on kind of jobs that are learned in tech school.

Sure there's a way to promote rebuilding the infrastructure, promoting tech school, (both would be helpful to all different races), and requiring police departments to be retrained on how to be a PEACE OFFICER", which is what they are supposed to be.
