No, democrat. But democrats are different in Vermont. Look up John Rodgers for example

2018-08-16 03:22:23 UTC  

JOHN S. RODGERS of Glover, Orleans County, Democrat, was born on July 29, 1965, in Saint Johnsbury, Vermont. John was raised in Glover on the family dairy farm; he was the fifth generation to grow up on the farm. He graduated from Sacred Heart, Newport, VT, (1983) and from New Hampshire Vocational Technical College, Berlin, NH, (Associates Degree 1985). After college John started a construction business, JS Rodgers Masonry Inc., specializing in dry stonework and excavation. He served eight years in the VT House of Representatives; he was the Collector of Delinquent Taxes for many years in Glover and coached youth soccer. He is a member of the NRA, Barton Area Chamber of Commerce, and served as the Director to Shadow Lake Association, Glover, VT. In 2008, John received the Crime Victim Service Award. He is married to Brenda Rodgers, a nurse at the NVR Hospital, and they have two boys.
“When I was young it seemed like that people who moved here, moved here because they loved it here and they embraced our values and our heritage, and didn’t want to change them,” he said. “It seems now like we’ve been overpopulated by people for different reasons and aim to take much of that away.”

2018-08-16 04:13:29 UTC  

Oh that's right he supports obamacare... and government involvement in the economy in the same manner the democrats do...

2018-08-16 04:17:57 UTC  

many areas are one party control

2018-08-16 04:18:19 UTC  

Regardless of your actual view on the issues you have to run in that party to win

2018-08-16 09:54:16 UTC

@Da_Fish As an actual resident of Vermont, I disagree

2018-08-16 16:25:26 UTC  

Where are you from? I just want to know so I can tell you its not worth saving

2018-08-16 16:33:41 UTC  

Vermont has a rich history and a vibrant culture and land. Many of our left-wingers, though perhaps misguided, have a strong connection to Vermont and her well-being. Furthermore, many of our multi-generational left-wingers are pro-gun. What's more, all of us appreciate an agrarian lifestyle and are proud of our banishment of the Mormons in the 1800s. Vermont used to be its own country, and it was founded due to radical militia activity that slowly liberated every town in the region. We are the only producers of Cabot and Grafton cheese, something thats quite popular in the north-east, and if we were to secede and market it right, even more popular. We're also ethnically pretty homogeneous and focused on many of the same issues regardless of political leanings.

@everyone Daily Question 🔖 book

Which is more valuable to you? A high skilled and well educated immigrant or an immigrant who is like minded and similar in thought to your countrymen?

2018-08-16 16:56:01 UTC  

2018-08-16 16:56:21 UTC  

High skilled

2018-08-16 16:56:24 UTC  

>immigrant
>valuable
give me a break

2018-08-16 16:56:26 UTC  

Well educated

2018-08-16 16:56:29 UTC  

Islam will take care of the diversity issue

2018-08-16 16:57:00 UTC  

an immigrant that leaves again is the most valuable of all immigrants

2018-08-16 16:57:08 UTC  

Tough question tho

2018-08-16 16:57:14 UTC  

U know we can derive value from them in their own country

2018-08-16 16:57:17 UTC  

Via trade

2018-08-16 16:57:30 UTC  

trade is gay tho

2018-08-16 16:57:33 UTC  

Ok

2018-08-16 16:58:36 UTC  

The latter option implies the immigrant will be more likely to integrate than the former?

2018-08-16 16:59:29 UTC  

it's hard to give an accurate answer because we don't know how different the highly skilled and educated immigrant is from you and your country's culture and traditions, and we don't know how low skilled the immigrant that is like like minded and similar to you is

2018-08-16 16:59:37 UTC  

Yes, let's phrase it this way:

Would you rather have an Anglo immigrate to America or a well educated German move there?

2018-08-16 17:00:33 UTC  

a skilled immigrant obviously

2018-08-16 17:00:35 UTC  

I'd stick to the German

2018-08-16 17:00:40 UTC  

long term he will be more useful

2018-08-16 17:00:47 UTC  

if he's willing to help the nation that is
