davvid. nice stat. so obly 9% of the population cares that much about "identity".......there is more to that link about de facto public official, Hillary is beyond eager and Bill will get a half term.....
"so obly 9% of the population cares that much about "identity"'
I don't know what you mean.
Only 9% of the population voted for either Trump or Clinton. Doesn't every conscious person care about their identity? I feel like you are hinting at something but I can't be sure. Are you talking about racial identity? Gender identity? Party identity?
NS posted a cartoon probably 3 pages ago that made it clear that US Presidential elections are "identity politics". what that stat tells me is that only 9% care so much about the identity of our "leader" they went through the effort of the primaries. These people project their imagination of the country onto all of us, when most of us ultimately are distracted by real life. the media take sthat 9% and makes it feel like 90%....the other 81% know whoever is president will make little difference? sure yoi may be conscious of your identity but what about the rest of us?
A Trump loss is looking more likely each day ... but, let's not forget that this jackass (and the party that nominated him) needs to be humiliated at the polls.
It's important that the Donald be defeated by a huge margin on November 8 so the GOP (and their many demagogue candidates-in-waiting) will pay attention to the damage they've done to our country. Maybe this will wake them up.
VOTE, even if it's inconvenient ... your vote does count.
probably i will change my mind and go to the polls as i always do and vote for the green party candidate, as usual, these are the things i am struggling with.., pussy grabs, private servers, husband's dick, wife's diploma and so on. why should i participate in such shallow process?
As shallow as it may seems, there's so much as stake that you cannot begin to comprehend the extent of it.
To start, if Hillary wins there will be amnesty within the first year along with hordes of Syrian refugees by the millions (voting democrat) in a couple of generations the US will be practically done for. Just few days ago Cuckanada stated that they are willing to accept up to half million refugees per year. That's literally a social time bomb. We will never have another Trump again, this is your very last chance.
Sadly it's not even the democucks' genial idea, they in turn are being played like a fiddle by the likes of George Soros and few other global elitists.
I'm going to have one last good laugh at them when the country goes up in flames.
oh my god your spelling is atrocious cado. cuckanada? democucks? is that how you communicate?
go ahead an use the googles to find a source for that 'millions' number you came up with. perhaps it's when she said about 10 to 65,000 in 2015? once you've done your due diligence and found out your perception of reality is based on lies (pretty stupid ones at that), go ahead and visit hillaryclinton.com and donate.
or, go ahead and support trump. it's a lot easier to lie to people, and i'm sure it makes you feel better too.
and do not forget the Electoral College. You may get the populist vote but the Electoral College may decide otherwise, especially if Trump were leading (or so one would predict).....https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electoral_College_(United_States) so vote how you feel like a Frenchman does the first round, you do not really decide anyway..........
100,000 is just like 10,000, but with an extra '0.' just like 1,000,000 is just like 100,000, but with an extra '0.'
i'm pretty sure i'm not "bourgeoisie" won. i don't even use capital letters because that's what the proletariat does on anonymous internet forums. yet i'll still support a candidate who is willing to defend her country from foreign aggressors. do you remember when republicans weren't such scared pussies that they felt they had to hide from the russians?
nah, just kidding. republicans hid behind kennedys.
when Trump says the system is rigged does he mean the Electoral College? (since its not really a populist vote). just brushed up on my social studies via wiki, it allears in 1872 both Arkansas and Louisianna electoral votes were rejected, if I read that correctly....
Not the same thing. Qatar and Saudi Arabia are some of the worst violators of human rights...but at least Hillary doesn't have a potty mouth like Trump...elections have become about manners and good bullshitting skills. Much like the rest of our corporate culture...
My house FYI is under the legal monopoly of a power company...another consequence of regulatory corporatism / crony capitalism. Solar is making a big mark here though....and the fascists fought it tooth and nail to prevent competitive energy companies...
Stop being a pollyanna. Most of the undeveloped world has issues regarding women's rights. You don't stop dealing with them in order to get them to find the right path. Women in Saudi Arabia are now running for public office.
If you are looking for Jesus, they won't be coming here anytime soon.
I'd rather President Clinton take money, and actually know who was giving the money, than President Cannabis, who doesn't even know where Detroit is located.
Saudi Arabia is not a developing country. They are a very wealthy country. I'm always amazed how the so called left defends cultures that are the antithesis of liberal principles while simultaneously railing against "white American males" who are light years more tolerant than the average Saudi.
Don't you see any hypocracy in Hillary basing her campaign on women's rights and trumps disrespect of women when that campaign is being funded by nations that believe a women who is raped should be stoned to death? Or that accept honor killing?
/\ /\ Oh no, of course we cannot have that cancer in this board !!
We must join together to eradicate racism and embrace tolerance, acceptance and be progressive, after all this is 2016 for christ sakes. There's no room for that anywhere in the world.
Thank you so much for bring it to our attention, as a reward GIVE THIS MEN A REFUGEE.
I'd suggest (you) to get a second job or start moonlighting design services to pay for their welfare since upwards of 80% don't even bother to find one.
Thank you for being so progressive, don't forget that many depend on you. Keep up the good work!
cadomestique don't quit your day job before you get fired, sarcasm isn't your strong suit.
Then again neither is rational thought, considering you read Breitbart (the creator of which would likely disown all of the bottom-feeders living off of his decaying corpse).
Well, good to know that our resident towel boy, cadomessy, it's still alive. I think the best part of having a shineboy on the site, it's when they lock in on their racism, albeit anonymously, and prance around, without a care in the world. It makes January 20th all the more enjoyable. Then those faux Nazis, with their Hot Topic, SS gear are stuck wearing swastika tees for easter.
so i followed those links and then was confused by the brit flag for breitbart but then went to breitbart glossed oved some news stories.....never been, didnt seem all that crazy just like any other over the top bullshit political leaning crazy media source.....what if we required politicians to not talk about moral issues and the media was banned from interpreting stories based on moral requirements?
My prediction: this race is a lot closer than people think, and it will come down to Pennsylvania and Michigan. (My guess is Ohio and Florida go to Trump.) Why these two states? Both went to Trump in the primary, and it was because of lopsided turnout in bombed out industrial towns who feel forgotten by the political establishment epitomized by the Clintons. That is a fired up base that will come out in force. I don't think there is the same passion in the Clinton base.
Additionally I saw first hand what happened to Clinton in the Michigan primary. Nate Silver and 538 had her up by 20% over Bernie, and she lost by 2%, I believe a first for Silver to be that wrong. What will turn it, I believe, are union voters who are traditionally Democrats turning out for Trump. The unions and their members are not on the same page here, and it will affect turnout. We're already seeing Macomb County, Reagan Democrat territory, breaking hard for Trump. Should be an interesting election night.
Moore is right. I am hearing/seeing the exact same thing in Michigan. You go almost anywhere outside of the metro Detroit area, and there are Trump signs everywhere.
Many people that they are assuming will vote dem are going to vote for Stein or Johnson for that same reasons outlined in that article, as well as an overall revolt towards the oligarchy ...
Trump:'We should just cancel the election' and declare me the winner"
Thank you for that suggestion, Adolph. However, how about we just continue to abide by the Constitution, however much you think that inconvenient for your faltering campaign.
I guess when you're rich, famous and a jackass, the rules don't matter so much, do they?
Thump the Trump
Davvid, wow. I didn't realize only 9% voted in primaries. Knew it was low but not that low. That's crazy.
Anyway, we could fix this shit with 2 moves.
1. Publically funded elections
2. Get rid of political parties and run candidates as individuals.
davvid. nice stat. so obly 9% of the population cares that much about "identity".......there is more to that link about de facto public official, Hillary is beyond eager and Bill will get a half term.....
https://youtu.be/O7VaXlMvAvk SNL Black Jeopardy skit
"so obly 9% of the population cares that much about "identity"'

jla-x
I agree that elections should be publicly funded. Donating to a political campaign should be considered bribery.
We could start by making all state primary elections into open primary elections where voters can participate regardless of they party affiliation.
We should also lower the voting age to 16 and allow felons to vote.
NS posted a cartoon probably 3 pages ago that made it clear that US Presidential elections are "identity politics". what that stat tells me is that only 9% care so much about the identity of our "leader" they went through the effort of the primaries.

could just vote for epic SNL skits for the next 4 years
"the media take sthat 9% and makes it feel like 90%....the other 81% know whoever is president will make little difference"
I agree with this.
When the media uses that small group to draw conclusions about the entire population, it creates a distorted caricature image of the country.
The establishment in both parties was significantly undermined in this campaign. We're going to see more of that.
It's important that the Donald be defeated by a huge margin on November 8 so the GOP (and their many demagogue candidates-in-waiting) will pay attention to the damage they've done to our country. Maybe this will wake them up.
VOTE, even if it's inconvenient ... your vote does count.
I read this the other day. It was written earlier this summer, but I think many of the points will still be valid on Nov 8.
5 Reasons Donald Trump Will Win
probably i will change my mind and go to the polls as i always do and vote for the green party candidate, as usual, these are the things i am struggling with.., pussy grabs, private servers, husband's dick, wife's diploma and so on. why should i participate in such shallow process?

Ha ha ha ha
That's the level of retardation we have to deal with. Obama himself authorized 100,000 just 2-3 weeks ago. Talking about out of touch with reality.
and do not forget the Electoral College.

While the liberal bourgeoisie continues to post inane memes and gifs mocking Trump, Hillary Clinton marches us closer to war with Russia with the complicit mainstream media in tow.
This ain't Fox News shit, people.
100,000 is just like 10,000, but with an extra '0.' just like 1,000,000 is just like 100,000, but with an extra '0.'

Trumpian misogynist vulgarity, nice. But it's okay since you support Clinton. Got it.

when Trump says the system is rigged does he mean the Electoral College? (since its not really a populist vote). just brushed up on my social studies via wiki, it allears in 1872 both Arkansas and Louisianna electoral votes were rejected, if I read that correctly....
Trump just wanted to grab her pusillanimous. It was totally innocent.
"I'm going to have one last good laugh at them when the country goes up in flames. "
^ troll, nihilist, traitor ^
Colin Powell says he's endorsing, voting for Hillary Clinton
Out of curiosity, how do you Hillary supporters feel about her accepting money from nations that stone women for showing too much ankle?
^ how do you feel about using their oil to operate your car and heat your home ?

jla-x, you're being rational, give-up, these whacko political types are never rational.
"cuck" is an alt-right slur.
Basically it means the person who uttered it won't be much missed if they vanish tomorrow.
