Where are the USA “JFK Democrats?
The USA “35 Presidents John F. Kennedy, was pro-freedom, pro-defense, trade and tax editor. On taxes, JFK had to say that the Economic Club of New York December 14, 1962: “Our current tax system exerts too heavy a drag on growth. It siphons private sector for a large share of personal and business purchasing power. It reduces the financial incentives for personal effort, investment and risks. ”
No class warrior was JFK. He wanted Cuts “for those in the middle and upper brackets, you can be encouraged to redouble their efforts and invest more capital….” JFK Tax cuts were adopted in February 1964 and has affected investment and economic boom.
Where are the JFK Democrats today? The likely presidential candidate in 2008, Hillary Clinton (Democrat - New York) is not one of them. On taxation, Bill Clinton had to say: “tax cuts are not the panacea for what ails the U.S. economy.… We need measures that do all of us together by our government to ensure conditions of future prosperity. ” [Emphasis added].
Bart opened his feelings about capitalism’s life nerve, profits, Bill Clinton told oil companies in February’s Democratic National Committee retreat: “I want those benefits, and I would like to make a Strategic Energy Fund.” Note the verb action. “Does it really? Go to YouTube.com, type in” Hillary on oil profits “and convince yourself Scary.
Clinton is 34% of primary schools survey predictable Democrats. Trailing her, at 26%, Barack Obama (Democrat-Illinois), the U.S. Senate, including the voting result is port Clinton. In addition, John Edwards, 15%. The former prosecutor Trial is a platform for the base-down protectionism and soak-rich populism. If these three worthies stumble, look for Al Gore to jump in
You too for a Democratic presidential candidate, even from a distance JFK is similar in its embrace of capitalism. Indeed, you will cross the Mississippi River and the Continental Divide, for the new breed of pro-business Democrats, led by the governor of New Mexico’s Bill Richardson. Richardson is difficult to find, even then. He prefers that the probable support of 3% of Democratic primary voters.
This is surprising. Richardson is very popular in New Mexico. First elected in 2002, the governor, he won the November re-election with 69% of votes. What makes that figure impressive is that New Mexico Democratic tilting slightly. By contrast, Hillary Clinton has declined by $ 40 million in his Senate re-election campaign in New York and has attracted 67% of the vote - in a state that draws heavily Democratic. Clinton figures look good, until you compare with Richardson’s.
As JFK, Richardson is an editor of taxes. He defeated New Mexico’s top income rate of 40% and gains on disposal of 50%. How FORBES 2004 wrote: “He knows the importance of free trade, after it bucked his party a decade ago to support Nafta.” In 2006, Cato (NYSE: CTR - News - people) Institutions libertarian Think Tank, Richardson’s assesses the fiscal capacity of such governors, as a Republican from Mississippi’s Haley Barbour, Massachusetts, Mitt Romney, California, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Florida, Jeb Bush. (Richardson’s willingness in the World dictators is another story. Under the latter, it is more than Jimmy Carter JFK).
