I wonder what this means?
Over this time, my political beliefs have remained unchanged. I still support entitlements, loathe mass incarceration, advocate for L.G.B.T.Q. rights, and believe in the government’s power to improve lives and create sweeping change. This ideology makes me a Democrat in the vein of Barack Obama, Jed Bartlet (“West Wing”) and even Mrs. Clinton. But on my college campus, I might as well be Pat Buchanan…..
When defending Mrs. Clinton becomes as unacceptable as bigotry, when her supporters are called privileged, oppressive and stupid, we lose the central feature of our democracy — pluralism.
Indeed, by surrounding themselves with only those who share their narrow set of political beliefs, the students who make up the liberal base on college campuses perpetuate the very oligarchical traditions they lament.
I’m a Hillary supporter. In their eyes, I might as well be a College Republican.

Hmmm ... didn't Hillary start out as a Young Republican?
So, students are enamored with "the government's power to ... create sweeping change"? WTF ???
Government is supposed to represent the will of We The People, and few of us want the kind of sweeping change these students do.
I feel sorry for this generation. They're going to get an "American Hitler" and possibly even the Antichrist. They should be far more careful what they wish for.
