Among the most widely accepted claims in American political discourse today is the notion that the Democratic Party is the party that stands up for the so-called "common man"; that it advocates for public policies that will improve the lives of the poorest and most powerless among us. But in city after city where Democrats have been in political control for any extended period of time, we find colossal levels of poverty and crime eroding the people's quality of life. And the longer those Democrats have been in charge, the worse the conditions tend to be. In short, Democrats have transformed a host of once-great metropolises into urban prisons where the common man has been grievously harmed by one destructive Democratic policy after another. Moreover, the failure of Democratic leaders in American cities has been mirrored by similar failures on the state level. It is time for serious-minded individuals who may have long supported the Democratic Party for reasons they deemed worthy, to recognize that their party has betrayed them so consistently and so monstrously, that they now have a moral imperative to walk away from it.
