Colorado Democrat Gov. Hickenlooper: divide in country is like slave state days

I think Colorado Democrat governor John Hickenlooper (aka lick a pooper) has had a bit too much pot. According to the far left nut job that Politico describes as a “moderate”, the polarization you see in America today has nothing to do with people fed up over open borders, amnesty for illegals or even liberals attempts to take legal gun owners anyway. No, it’s far worse than that according to Lickapooper. You see, because of polarization today, thinks in this country are just like the old slave days from back in in the 1800’s.

Hickenlooper described a broad-based approach to addressing this problem, including infrastructure projects to bring broadband to everyone and skills-training programs short of four-year college degrees that would better prepare workers for jobs in clean technology and other burgeoning industries. And he suggested people listen to each other more. “As soon as you start really listening, aggressively, and asking questions, that’s when real transformations happen,” he said.

Hickenlooper would not directly say if he would run for the Democratic nomination in 2020, though he did not rule it out. But he did say speculation that he could seek to form a national unity ticket with his friend John Kasich, the GOP governor of Ohio, probably wouldn’t pan out.

“I don’t think we are ever going to be on a unity ticket; we joke about it all the time,” he said. “We just disagree on a lot of important core stuff. But we have a great deal of respect for each other and I think a genuine friendship at this point.”
