... but it's not the stated goal of the Republican Party. They're not all crazy.
I grew up in the Midwest in a proudly Republican family. I guess I was the first one to go blue, because I came of age when Nixon was running for his 2nd term. I've never voted for a Republican in all my years (I'm 66 now) but I remained independent for a long time. I thought maybe some day the GOP will have somebody I might want to vote for. But nope, it will never happen I'm sure of that now. In 2008 I joined the Democratic Party because I wanted to vote for Hillary in the primary.
Here's my point - the Republican Party used to stand for something. Eisenhower was their last good president. The people who are making the attacks as you describe in your post (and yes they are happening) are using the less-informed people to accomplish their evil for them. This is what is so wrong, those people have been duped and used. We have to find a way to overcome 40 years of brainwashing by Rush Limbaugh and the hate-radio factory, in order to convince these people.
