Over the years I’ve voted for many Republican candidates. However, I’m now voting for Democrats and I’m asking you to consider doing the same. Here’s why: The Republican Party is no longer the Grand Old Party I once voted for. Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and Eisenhower were Republicans and all three are in the top ten list of America’s greatest presidents.

Lincoln ended slavery and held our nation together when we were divided. Now the Republican extremists have pitted us against each other. Teddy Roosevelt pushed for legislation that required food companies to sell safe food. This saved the lives of children who were eating spoiled food sold by food companies. Now that legislation would be considered “bad for business†and “government overreachâ€. Eisenhower’s civil rights accomplishments would now be considered “replacement†of whites and building the interstate highway would be considered “land grabbingâ€. The current Republican Party would label those presidents “woke†and not support them.
