Dear Editor: I am having an extremely hard time listening to the platform of the Democrat National Party. They seem to campaign with two mantras: They hate Donald Trump and they voraciously defend abortion. It really doesn’t matter who the Democrat is. The message is still the same. Their second mantra is one of the reasons why I left the DNC decades ago.
Right now, the one who seems to be surging in the party is Bernie Sanders. If he turns out to be the nominee of the party, I wish that he and the rest of his DNC colleagues would take note of the following paragraph.
Mr. Sanders, did you forget that you, too, we’re once a fetus? Were you happy when you were born? What makes your life more important or more valuable than the lives of the unborn?
Again, I am no fan of Donald Trump. I do not hate the man whatsoever. I do totally support that he is pro-life. If pulling the lever for him in the coming election saves the unborn, I will eagerly do so.
You, Mr. Sanders, need to examine your stance and change your position on this issue. You need to stand up for the unborn. The expression that is commonly used in this era is “pay it forward.” In other words, someone allowed you to have your life. Now, you must do the same. You and the rest of your party must stand up and allow the unborn to have their lives as well.
