The Reptilians from Zeta Reticuli are far better adherents than Homo Sapiens. It's no surprise when opted for which species to give a ***about, God chose... wisely.
I mean, why do you think the Illuminati wields so much power?

Was it encrypted? Either way it's a bad way to backup data.

I don't know, Hopefully it is, either way foxnews doesn't care.
I don't really care either.
The entire thing is a sideshow and irrelevant.

Hopefully it is? If I were a Dem, I'd be looking for any excuse to get Hillary out of the way now to give room for better candidates. The mighty ship is sinking. Find a new one while you can.

I don't personally care about Hilary, but I do believe it's the republicans who are in need of a better candidate. No matter how bad she is, she'll crush any of the republicans currently in the race.
Not if her poll numbers keep trending downward like they have. Regardless, why defend her? You seem far more concerned about beating Republicans than you do about putting someone in office that's actually good. I swear people would vote for a literal pile of steaming dung if it had the correct letter next to its name and had a high chance of winning.

Well considering he's Canadian and will not be voting I doubt that's the truth of the matter in his case.
Edit: Also, did he really defend her? I mean he posted the article then said he didn't really care about her but that she still outshined any republican candidate regardless.

Even less reason to support her. You'd think people with fewer dogs in the race would be thrilled at the prospect of Americans not nominating Corrupt_Goon_v.2016.

All he said was that he doesn't even care about Hillary but that he doesn't see any republican out there with a chance to beat her atm. I think you're blinded by your hate for the liberals lol...
so who in the race right now hasn't been accused of being corrupt at one point or another? Clinton, Walker, Bush and Perry have all been accused quite recently.

It's not unusual for one side or the other to vote for the people they think could win for them even if its not the best option on their side it still may seem better than the other side.

So far the Dems have two good candidates. Good in this usage = winnable. So far = today.
So far The GoP has none.
In the latest polls Hillary trounces, and I mean stomps all over, any Republican in the race. Bernie beats everyone but the Donald.

And this is why we won't have a truly good president anytime in the foreseeable future.

They're, for the most part, career politicians aiming for that goal at some point. Once we get it out of our heads that only specific types of people can lead then maybe we can get a different type of candidate.

We won't have any so long as the Presidential process is dominated by people throwing money at mediocre candidates while decent ones are told no money = no play.
Democracy has been subverted. Any decent candidate will either be sunk by money or be rendered ineffectual by a Congress that doesn't know how to statesman anymore. You don't need to like the POTUS or your colleagues but you should be getting ***done. Because it's your job.

Random Politics & Religion is for topics that aren't thread worthy on their own and do not have their own existing thread.
Rules and Guidelines
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.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
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.
This thread is NOT the Flame Core.
These rules are subject to change and modification where and when needed.
Random Politics & Religion may be mained or demained depending on the activity within at a Moderator's discretion.
With that out of the way, let the debates begin!
