you can come next time, but you have to at least push an old lady down the stairs and take her money....
Extra points if it's a Kennedy.
Leaving a woman to drown should at least get me in the political front door.

Nope. NY Dem politics is enough to know the whole bloated carcass stinks and everything is game where people are pawns and pols are the players.
Infact if Michael Bloomberg entered the race, I'd be tempted to throw my vote on him over Clinton.

Bernie only wears fair trade clothing, made with the sweat and tears of American workers stitching that shirt from American fibers grown in -you guessed it- American soil.
He also irons his own shirts.

IDK. Some people on the far-right are co-opting the Kennedy legacy to reveal Comrade LBJ as the dirty commie he truly was. Grave-rolling. There might be a smidgen of grave-rolling going on now.
Quote: “Many people believe the Democrat Party had JFK killed because the socialists and Communists in the party did not want a conservative president. Remember who followed JFK as president — (LBJ). the exact opposite of Kennedy — a socialist and an unethical politician. It does seem like this might have been the master plan: They sneaked the bad guy (LBJ) into the administration on the coat-tail of a good guy (JFK). Then they got rid of the good guy; in the end, they got a socialist president which is what they originally wanted.”

I'm 90% certain it will be Hillary vs. Jeb on the 2016 ballets. We'll go through the usual bait-and-switch and round robin of Republican cadidates "surging in the polls" until near the end when all we'll hear is how Jeb Bush is a strong leader and the best chance to beat Hillary. The parties will split down the middle and bicker about who is better between the two and in the end we'll be stuck with Oligarchy and 1/3 of us will be happy, 1/3 of us will be mad, and 1/3 of us have already been disillusioned to the whole scam to not give a ***.

I don't want to alarm anyone but you might be white if you are reading this sentence ! I'm Jewish Fone. We aren't really white you know.
Just in 21st century America we pass REALLY well.
Where it shows that we aren't white most strongly is in Russia and France currently.
....
Except that Trump is an ***, and has made his living being an ***.
Are you going to label every Republican based on one person? Oh wait, you already did. Two words. "Southern strategy".

About this whatchyamacallit thing that's supposed to be happening in Syria.
It isn't a truce. It isn't a cease fire. They are calling it a "cessation of hostilities" and it isn't that either.
1, The on the ground anti Assad hostiles, no mater what their orientation, aren't in on it. Just all (?) the foreign powers involved. I think. Not knowing ALL the foreign powers involved I really don't know.
2, Russia insists that it will continue airstrikes against terrorists. For Russia terrorists = any and every anti Assad hostile.
3, It doesn't take effect for a week.
Can we give our anti Assad hostiles shoulder mounted SAMs and have them take out the 30 combat aircraft the Russians have in Syria?
Please?

but you automatically attribute all Repubicans of having the same, Altima-style thinking. I don't even know why you assume I follow Trump willing. I'd wager I've spoken against him more than you have.
As for this Altima-style thinking thing.. I am not a Republican..and Neither are you. I'm the most Conservative poster on this site, and believe it or not, I agree with 95% of everything you type out here. Welcome to my way of thinking Bro.
Lets clear up this misunderstanding you seem to have about me. The only thing worse then a Republican is a Democrat. The only reason I would vote for Trump is because he is running against either Clinton or Sanders.
that's all of the non-extreme conservatives I can think of on this forum........ To consider yourself a Conservative is the most extreme-right political thing you can do. We haven't even had a candidate to vote for president since Reagan. You should start paying better attention because Republicans and Conservatives are about as different as Republicans and Democrats.

The party with a Woman, a Latino/Canadian, a Cuban, a black man, Jeb Bushes wife is the daughter of a migrant worker, are all running for President and you have the balls to say the party isn't inclusive enough?
Vs.
Old white guy
A Clinton. .Happens to be woman.
/laugh and out of all that. The American people are choosing white guy vs old white guy..
Can we finally burn the racism and feminist cards..?
Lakshmi.Sparthosx said: »Sanders anger, righteous indignation, no-filter brashness and belief that might makes right resonates with a disenfranchised group who believe they're entitled to a better America. These types basically transpose their ego onto Sanders and live through him because they lack power.
Trumps base is also mostly white underemployed or college age who believe that their futures remain in limbo due to the shift away from college degrees being worth a damn to highly skilled positions (that also require post-grad ed) they cannot occupy yet. In the mind of most of these people a dead end job, middling wages and the looming college debt anchor is a threat to their ever being able to live a comfortable life. Only changed a total of 4 words, makes just as much sense as before.

Wait, are you saying Reagan would be considered extreme right in todays republican party?

2016 definition, only Tea Party would be conservatives, everyone else who is Republican would be RINOs.

The candidates may be diverse themselves, but they're doing a poor job addressing the main issues and concerns facing their own demographics. This is why you don't see them getting the same backing that say, Obama had with blacks or Hillary has with women.

Obama never cared about creating equality towards races. He has done more to cause division and racism than every president since Buchanan.
Hillary certainly doesn't care about women except that she expects every woman to vote for her or they are just misogynist pigs.
To say that they "care" about such demographics is ludicrous at best. Obama only got the support because of the color of his skin. Hopefully Hillary doesn't get the support because of her gender.

You can view it that way if you want to, but this is just an explanation as to why Obama and Hillary get better support from black and female undecided voters than Carson or Fiorina.

Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.

Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
