The 2016 Presidential Candidates Thread

[HellsWindStaff]

I'm pretty disappointed in the VP picks. Two anti-cannabis politicians....just more of the same and usual.

While not the only topic I care about, it did ring of the unwilling to acknowledge the future.

Tim kaine doesnt wet your proverbial whistle??

Lol I hear you he sucks.

Loving the shit show. Makes it all worth it

Trumps pick sucks but helps his weakest group at least

 

[SSVUN~YAH]

I could listen to Al Franken speak about anything. Sorry just a "random thought".

 

[CarolKing]

Having worked with children with disabilities, that was the main issue I had with Trump early on. I probably had problems with him before he actually made fun of the news man. His lack of respect and empathy for others is beyond what normal people feel. It was the number one issue that people have with Trump.

I kept thinking Al Frankin was going to break out in character any moment. Very good about comparing Trump University to like a Bernie Madoff University.

Edit
Loved Sarah Silverman, just told the Bernie or Bust people they are being ridiculous. Trump is tweeting as we speak here on FC especially about being in the sand box and that he didn't get much attention as a child ha ha.

I wish they would have gotten Art Garfunkle to sing Bridge Over Troubled Waters. Paul Simon didn't sound his best, I'm sorry to say. That song doesn't suit him, he sounds terrible. I was waiting for the dogs to howl.

Love, love, love Cory Booker who was my choice for VP. Cory Booker 2024 for presidentM - he's my guy.

Michele Obama does a good car karaoke - on late night with James Corden. She did well giving her speech.

Loved Sarah Silverman, just told the Bernie or Bust people they are being ridiculous.

That was my favorite part of the convention so far. LOVED that she did that.

And yeah, Paul Simon's voice is shot. Getting' a bit up in the years.

 

[yogoshio]

I wished they would have gotten Art Garfunkle

Unfortunately for everyone, he lost his voice a few years back.

 

[lwien]

Go go go Cory.......!!!

 

[GetLeft]

Bill looks a little bit like he's got a good buzz going on


Edit: I used to see Elizabeth as our next hero. She'll be one of our current ones. Our next one might be Michelle.

 

[lwien]

Michelle Obama hit it out of the park. I wouldn't be surprised if one day, she may run for President herself. Or Cory, or......

Seems that the Dems have a pretty deep bench.

 

[CarolKing]

I just loved Bernie's theme song throughout his campaign. "America" by Simon and Garfunkle. It brings me to tears when I hear it. I understand the Bernie people and how much they love him. I wanted it a different way too, it didn't turn out the way we thought or were hoping. Life goes on and you have to make the best of it.

Really loving Bernie's speech.

 

[Silat]

Let us not forget that Bill Clinton's testimony in Jones V Clinton led to charges of perjury and obstruction of justice and his impeachment. His AK law license was suspended by the AK Supreme Court and he would have been disbarred by the U.S. Supreme Court had he not surrendered his license there.

Wow. Really? You are upset over someone lying about sex? That is your fallback?
Color me amused.
The history of that witch hunt is one for the ages.
Rich reich wingers spent years and millions on detectives and payoffs trying to find something on Bill.
And they got him in a deposition about sex.
Meanwhile most of the right wing congress people who pushed impeachment were lying about sex and messing around on their wives while they were going after Bill.
You have to love the hypocrisy of the family values party.
You win. You are right. He has got to go.
That was sarcasm.

 

[Silat]

Do what? Nothing stuck? I know we're all high, but c'mon buddy, I was alive then too and it was pretty damn obvious that Bill sexually harassed women at the very bare minimum.

There was no conviction for harassment and no trial that found that he did any such thing.
And I am not high.

 

[HellsWindStaff]

Lol, how can anyone reading this thread take certifiable liars and people who spout misconceptions as having an actual valid point.....anyone whose not bought into this train of BS please open your eyes. It's actually borderline sickening to me how warped some people are. Am I the crazy one? Lolz

 

[gangababa]

All I know is that no one should be putin (sic) their personal egos ahead of the future of America's common-good.
Our common-wealth ought not be putin out only for the oligarchs who are running one of their gop-damn-own for 'king-of-the-hill', with war-lords putin support behind him.

There is plenty wrong in this world. No one ought add more ignorance of cause and effect.
Do not expect to control the unintended consequences of angry actions.
Anger is not a valid governing principle.

When I was 21, I was told to leave America because I didn't 'love it" the right way.
Today, that same right cheers the Kremlin's kid as he crap talks current American culture.
The sides never change. Only the names and labels vary; southern racists voted Democrat from emancipation on, until Nixon lured the Dixiecrats into the GOP's racist refuge.

 

[HellsWindStaff]

You've been proven an idiot once already lol. When you blame all republicans of last 20-30 years as causing all issues, you lose credibility. Sorry. Whose taking you seriously again?

Edit: I'll stop when Lwien admits his statement about Fox burying it was straight up false and BS. Admitting to being wrong I know a liberal brain will pop (as evidence by the response) I'm tired of your guys false conceptions. I'm gonna continue to call you guys out on it. You guys are stupid lol. Continue to spit your false truths and Continue to shy away from you being wrong, I won't let that stand anymore though. I'm tired of it. You guys can bash Trump supporters but you're all a bunch of fucking dimwits.

Plan your statements now about how your smarter than the majority that elects him. You'll need it.

 

[CarolKing]

@HellsWindStaff we want to keep this thread open until the election. Please help us do that. You are entitled to your own opinion and so are we.

I was nervous for Bernie I didn't want the Bernie or Bust people to cause too many problems. I really understand their feelingS. I feel sad for Bernie too. He will help to secure some of his ideas with the democratic platform.

He did great staying in as long as he did, it was very helpful. This will change things for the good for the Democratic Party and it's thanks to Bernie. He's moved them further to the left as a more progressive party.

 

[grokit]

I really like elizabeth warren. We needed to get back down to reality.
I liked al franken too, funny and down to it at the same time.
A sanders-warren ticket would have beaten drumpf by at least 25%
But I agree we're stronger together.
I really hope bernie's speech wasn't the peak of the convention
I'm sure the rest will be very well-produced.
Vive la revolution!

 

[HellsWindStaff]

Answe me then Carol King how my delusional Republican family members who are worse off aren't actually worse off and are delusional?

Blame me for closing it I don't care. This thread isn't bipartisan as is so of its closed for me calling ta'll out on BS arguments so be it; get stronger points.

I honestly just find it downright hilarious how I can show proof of false misconception and I'm the guy with the false perception.....zzzzzzz stupider folks will fall for that.

Stupid Hillary supporters....that's the last few pages switch Trump with Hillary that's all you mensches spout.

I hope everyone realizes I have an issue with the Hillrey Fans. And them only. You bred this discontent:

 

[SSVUN~YAH]

Lol, how can anyone reading this thread take certifiable liars and people who spout misconceptions as having an actual valid point.....anyone whose not bought into this train of BS please open your eyes. It's actually borderline sickening to me how warped some people are. Am I the crazy one? Lolz

I don't know how a person that has any speck of compassion, could in good conscience be with him. It's a tale as old as time, create division and use fear to control. Fuck that, if I was a Republican I would be switching teams. The party of Lincoln my ass!

 

[HellsWindStaff]

In other news, loving this debacle anyone have a point on it?!

Edit: @SSVUN~YAH see it doesn't matter. The other party has proven themselves liars. Why trust someone who can't even open two websites and give a bipartisan viewpoint? When proven with facts thy say "ohhhhh equal" ? Had the mensch just told me he fucked up I wouldn't harp as much. But since Faux news apparently buried it until the time I took my screenshots I figure I'll be as obnoxious as possible....and in having FUN with it too long were we Trumo fans silenced

 

[CarolKing]

@HellsWindStaff you are insinuating that we are stupid? Did I get your drift? Is that correct? I'm really having a hard time understanding you. So if we don't believe as you, we are stupid?

Some of us have been looking forward to the DNC convention.

Edit
Seven and a half years ago the country was in the toilet. The economy is much better than it was. We are doing really well right now. We have a small business and things have been thriving.

Economist have said Trumps plan would be toxic for the country. I know someone else will have some other economist prediction for Trump but I haven't heard many that agree with his policy,

 

[grokit]

I understand that a drumpf supporter might feel a bit lonely here.
How about stating your opinion without calling those that disagree stupid.
Maybe you could edit that part out?

 

[t-dub]

Wow. Really? You are upset over someone lying about sex? That is your fallback?
Color me amused.

Actually, if you would pay attention, I was commenting on your quote:

And none of it stuck. NONE OF IT STUCK.

Because some things did stick. Your conspiracy theory rationalizations that follow just show how angry you are that someone dared challenge your quote and how partisan you are. You are trying to fight with someone who is not here to fight but is trying to bring a little balance and learn something.

I have not figured out who I'm going to vote for yet, like I sad before, I'm a political atheist and dislike both sides. Forgive me for correcting the record in this partisan echo chamber.

I am sorry you think I am angry. I am not. I believe in facts.

 

[HellsWindStaff]

In not insinuating anything; you are stupid. Your beliefs are stupid. I'm a "delusional" Trumpet supporter right? So guess we'll see what weighs
More as an insult. Delusional or idiotic.

I have given you guys proof about how Faux News wasn't burying the Melania trump story. I was met with that's a false perception......I posted screenshots of both websites Within a half hour of the comment being made that fox buried it....proving that they didn't.....was met with they were still burying it.


If you believe that, your an idiot. Simple as that. Proof is in the pudding. Open up your eyes.

Also, further proof of your idiocracy; why are Republicans who say they aren't better off during Obama term "delusional" just because your family is better off! You've never answers that. I've said mine isn't. So, are they delusional or are your beliefs idiotic? Sounds like the latter. Since you refuse to admit it.

 

[HellsWindStaff]

Chew on my that. I'm a small portion of America. A large portion beliefs you guys are idiots.
Edit: I am Done. Don't find it kosher to insult Truml supporters, so might as well insult back. ill be waiting on actual facts to disprove me.
