Why do democrats want America to Fail?

Very well put! They just can't get past partisan politics. Nothing is good if it was done by a Republican I guess...yes it is very sad!

USA uses the word Democracy just as an excuse to get into other countries and take advantage of its resources they attacked Iraq to take the oil and only for this reason it's more a domination than an attack to make a country  more democratic.. I dont think there's any good reason for americans to go and die for something dat has nothing to do wiz them

Yes! The democrats have to do something bold. There is no solid leadership in the party. Bush has given the democrats so many opportunities to capitalize on his failings, but all they do is whine. A bold, positive agenda for reform would be a fantastic way to get out of the doldrums the democratic party has been in these last few years. It seems all the democrats want to do is whine, but propose no real solutions. It turns people off to the democrats -- including me, and I am one. We need a positive action plan, not just criticism.

1.  Because most americans really ARE either a Dem or a Rep.\n\n2.  most countries end up falling into a two party system.  It's certainly better than a one party system, and with too many parties, they end up having to form coalitions to create a majority.  So- basically a two party system kinda' works.  Ya' can't give people too many choices.

The ancient Greeks, who invented democracy, had a philosopher who said." every government tends to fail by excess of its own basic principle". I cannot recall his name.\n\nThe USA was an experiment in government modeled partly on ancient Greece as revealed to europeans again during the renaissance when monks found old greek teachings and lore in Muslim libraries during the crusades that were translated and taken to Europe. This ended the dark ages in Europe.\nAlso the USA copied some native American government models.\nThe basic principle of USA is democracy rather than Monarchy, so it is this very aspect of our own government that threatens to topple it. Certainly it is made worse by ignorant masses that vote, but it is the power to vote that makes this ignorance dangerous. Not the ignorance per se.\nIf USA were an enlightened dictatorship, then this would not be a problem as the wise and kind ruler would protect the idiots from themselves.\nBut we let anyone vote. They need not own property, or be educated,or even be literate. They can still vote at age 18. This has made the gathering of the votes of morons a big business. This democratic system will be the undoing of USA as the morons are led to the slaughter by the evil geniuses that manipulate them and eventually will enslave them. Part of the con is to make working for the man a moral obligation (ha ha) Then paying taxes to a corrupt government becomes a growing legal obligation. Then obeying religious leaders and tithing. The rest is like taking candy away from a baby. The only reason the trap is not yet sprung is because evil factions are still fighting over the slaves. Once they end their war or have a truce, USA and all its freedoms is doomed.\nOH YEAH, they also do not want to kill the goose that laid the golden egg so it is better to let the fools think they are free as long as possible. We dont want no revolution! First thing to do is to distract them with drugs, TV and false issues to divide them. Then ruin the schools so nobody will ever get smart enough to see what is happening. It is really easy and almost done. so long suckers!

I often wonder why the Dem's dont produce a good platform of their own, instead of being purely anti-republican.  If they actually focused on positives that they would bring to the nation, I think they'd get more support

I get the feeling that the liberal left democrats and their ilk want all americans to get undressed and lay down so that when whatever country wants to invade us, when they are kicking us and raping us and robbing us they won't hurt their toes on our belt buckles or anything.

Because our country is currently run by Republicans, who historically could care less about the plight of the poor and helpless.  The mindset is: "If I can be wealthy without government handouts, then everyone else can too."  They can't see that the American dream does NOT exist for a lot of people, especially minorities, and that some people have many more obstacles than White Anglo-Saxon Protestants.  It's really sad.  Hopefully we can get some Democrats in office who can help provide good legislation to help the poor and suffering.

I suppose it is ignorance or the lack of understanding of what the majority of Americans want for America. I've never seen a Liberal desire anything for all of America, unless it benefited them personally.  And I've never seen a Liberal seek anything that was morally wholesome and/or correct.\n\nSometimes we do not listen to the truth, because we don't want to hear it. Liberals and Democrats do not want our Conservative Republican President to succeed... (which not only makes our president look bad, but it makes America look bad.)\nand because of this, they bash the president, make up stuff...and spin their time stretching or changing the truth.\n\nMost answers to questions on this site, made by them, are "reportable" because they cannot argue their points without cursing or talking dirty. Very few appear educated, most are miss-informed, and all appear to have tunnel vision. (DESTROY and DISCREDIT the President and Republicans.)\n\nI never hear any positive directions or new ideas to help and support America. Just negativity from the left....\n\nBut then TRUTH is always a challenge to discredit.... maybe they just like a challenge!

In a Democracy, you get the leadership you deserve.  The American people are stupid, so stupid leadership is what they will vote for.  Any candidate who is intelligent would do well to conceal it.

If Democrats are demonic so are Republicans.  They want to solve the same problems, they just have a different method of solving such problems.

America needs help from NO ONE. \n\nRepublicans didn't complain about election  fraud when they lost elections.  Democrats have been trying to destroy American democracy because they are sore losers. \n\nThey always seem to find a new place that coincidentally comitted election fraud.  First, it was Florida. Then ,it was Ohio. \n\nNo one pays attention to sore losers.

yea, your assumption is the problem with the statement.  People want our people to come home.  there is no doubt about it.  Not one person would say they would RATHER have military fighting war than not.  But some people understand the necessities of it.  The Dems (like most every other agenda they try to push) keep saying they "have a plan" the uneducated masses believe this garbage and say "well if they have a plan lets let them inact it."  Dems are praying on hope and ignorance of the american people and it is what is going to lose the war and leave us in a worse place then we are now.

Its possible they are just trying to get the citizens trust and faith back as a way to win elections.  Perhaps they realized how much the citizens werent favoring their thoughts, ideas, and opinions.  Most likely, they will just build us up to put us down again.  Everytime, every single time, a democrat is in office, a war or 'battle' occurs.  I don't suppose they plan on changing this now.

In an Article entitled “Why it's over for America” the respected speaker provided by your link wrote:\n An inability to protect its citizens. The belief that it is above the law. A lack of democracy. Three defining characteristics of the 'failed state'. And that, says Noam Chomsky, is exactly what the US is becoming. In an exclusive extract from his devastating new book, America's leading thinker explains how his country lost its way. \n The selection of issues that should rank high on the agenda of concern for human welfare and rights is, naturally, a subjective matter. But there are a few choices that seem unavoidable, because they bear so directly on the prospects for decent survival. Among them are at least these three: nuclear war, environmental disaster, and the fact that the government of the world's leading power is acting in ways that increase the likelihood of these catastrophes. It is important to stress the government, because the population, not surprisingly, does not agree. \n That brings up a fourth issue that should deeply concern Americans, and the world: the sharp divide between public opinion and public policy, one of the reasons for the fear, which cannot casually be put aside, that, as Gar Alperowitz puts it in America Beyond Capitalism, "the American 'system' as a whole is in real trouble - that it is heading in a direction that spells the end of its historic values [of] equality, liberty, and meaningful democracy".\n The "system" is coming to have some of the features of failed states, to adopt a currently fashionable notion that is conventionally applied to states regarded as potential threats to our security (like Iraq) or as needing our intervention to rescue the population from severe internal threats (like Haiti). Though the concept is recognised to be, according to the journal Foreign Affairs, "frustratingly imprecise", some of the primary characteristics of failed states can be identified. One is their inability or unwillingness to protect their citizens from violence and perhaps even destruction. Another is their tendency to regard themselves as beyond the reach of domestic or international law, and hence free to carry out aggression and violence. And if they have democratic forms, they suffer from a serious "democratic deficit" that deprives their formal democratic institutions of real substance.\n Among the hardest tasks that anyone can undertake, and one of the most important, is to look honestly in the mirror. If we allow ourselves to do so, we should have little difficulty in finding the characteristics of "failed states" right at home. \n\nhttp://www.google.com/custom?q=Noam+Chomsky&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=ISO-8859-1&client=pub-5174720432180771&cof=FORID:1%3BGL:1%3BBGC:FFFFFF%3BT:%23000000%3BLC:%230000ff%3BVLC:%23663399%3BALC:%230000ff%3BGALT:%23008000%3BGFNT:%230000ff%3BGIMP:%230000ff%3BDIV:%23336699%3BLBGC:336699%3BAH:center%3B&domains=informationclearinghouse.info&sitesearch=informationclearinghouse.info&start=10&sa=N

They're 'liberal' Americans. They've got a vested interest to see President Bush fail, and they'll stop at anything to see it happen. Look at Michael Moore, he's an idiot, and he's been caught lying over and over again. Yet the Democratic party latched on to him when he started attacking the president.\n\nNow they're rallying behind Cindy Sheehan. \n\nThese people aren't interested in the country, or the truth. They're just interested in winning, and its pathetic.

gridlock at every turn.the dems don't dare let bush succeed especially in Iraq,or they may never get the white house back.unfortunately the democratic party has been hijacked by the liberal wing,self loathing defeatists that think the worlds problems are entirely of our making.this thought process isolates,good leaders like Bill Bradley and, Joe Liberman.
