    The 2016 Presidential Candidates Thread

    I agree that a hammer and nail approach is not the best option but it seems to be the one our government is wed to. So if it is they have to make the best of it and I don't think the military approach as it is now is producing results so its time for a change. Assassination, subversion...

    The 2016 Presidential Candidates Thread

    Maybe we should put the war on the table when discussing presidential candidates? The winner will be the commander and chief and in charge of policy or at least should be. My point is if the country is committed to a military resolution (which I am not) then it needs to be one that has a...

    Ideologies do not pull triggers. Because you have stated your opinion as fact and you can't support it. Which means the rest of you position based on the unsupported opinion is suspect too. Your falling back to you can't prove me wrong doesn’t address peoples problem of you presenting your...

    After due consultation an official declaration of war with all the oversight and commitment that decoration requires. Afterward the nation can bury the dead and move on.

    I believe we are in agreement on many points but we disagree on some of the approach. The undeclared "War On Terror" just keeps going on and spreading which produces more terrorists in more locations. Its a cyclic problem that Washington hasn’t come to grips with in fifteen years and given the...

    Maybe the question is, could a candidate on her left and a candidate on her right be onto something?..... See, that is one of the problems with the current campaign presentations model, they tend to be rhetoric driven. Once a complaint is introduced anyone can repeat the chant and those who...

    The 2016 Presidential Candidates Thread

    I think if one really wanted to find another approach aside from a military solution there would be some sort of obvious diplomatic discussions going on outside of the theater, like we have seen in the past. Don't get me wrong if there is a viable enough reason to engage another country in war...

    So where did you get these 80/20 figures you keep repeating? I would really like to know who keeps track of such things.

    Have you ever watched a kid run in circles and scream that its right? That's why discussions on the net are usually so pointless all you have to do is keep running and screaming and you never lose. The trick is to avoid the kids aisle and never talk to anyone below five years of age.

    Friend wants to get Volcano as first vape.

    Yep we are all have different expectations, resources and abilities that’s why there is no one vape to rule them all. About the beast we can hope for is to find the one that work for us as an individual user.

    Favorite cover versions of the classics...

    Any seventies or eighties band still playing their stuff from the seventies and eighties are often their own cover band. But that’s OK after they all die all the nineties and new century folks will become their own cover bands in their turn. Look at Elvis and Sinatra performing zombies that took...

    Islamophobia......

    Its one thing to test and threaten however throwing an actual nuke next door is a whole different coffin of worms. Better to use the program like others have over the last seventy years, a top secret defense program that all kinds of other nasty stuff can be concealed under without oversight...

    The real shot callers are not bound by the same laws and national boundaries as a citizen. They are international by nature and beyond the reach of those they manipulate. In an age when wealth and influence move with ease from optimized labor pool to optimized labor pool a national tie makes...

    Friend wants to get Volcano as first vape.

    Folks seldom stick with their first vape, once they get to know all the advantages and warts of their first selection. Heck some folks don't even stick with vapeing. On the other hand if your friend bails someone will usually be very glad to buy a Vol at a reasonable used piece price.

    Combine the US "us versus them" political system and the modern day media presentation of that political system it almost makes a Trump like figure unavoidable. The real failure is so many people feel like they are caught up in the presentation and they can't find themselves an alternative to it.

    Islamophobia......

    I think it's Muslims that are leaders that need to reign in and educate their followers as to what's expected of them if they are of the Muslim faith. Good for the goose so the below is right too? I think it's Christians that are leaders that need to reign in and educate their followers as to...

    Islamophobia......

    With respect, If the educated were a monolithic group all sharing the same fears I would agree but that is not the way it is. Ethnic and religious fears slice across all the castes in our society, you see ethnic and religious fears in the upper echelon of our ruling class all the way down to the...

    Islamophobia......

    Maher is an entertainer looking for viewers and playing on peoples fears and causing chatter which are both proven number boosters. That is why I go to the world wide pipe for all my news and views.

    There is a big difference between the party shot callers and the rank and file. As much as the RNC hates Trump they hate their loss of control even more. Come to think about it, that loss of control may be the best thing to come out of their primary so far.
