Not A Dime's Worth of Difference?


George Wallace said it...

  In 1968 he launched The American Independent Party because "there's not a dime's difference between the two major parties". 

But some new data from PEW published by The Washington Post today shows the parties are now further apart than ever---

According to a January 2017 survey, the five leading policy priorities for Republicans are:

  • Terrorism
  • The economy
  • Jobs
  • Health costs
  • The military

But the same survey shows the top five policy priorities for Democrats are:

  • Education
  • Environment
  • Terrorism
  • Poor people
  • Race relations
Just one shared issue---terrorism.
