I do not want to feel guilty about spending millenials futures so I will continue to inform them about what is the right thing to do. That way when I am spending their money I can say "Told ya!". - - - Updated - - - Not so fast. You seem anxious to write Trump off.....many have made that mistake.
So you want to make a federal case out of 2 weeks? From a practical point of view, I don't know what 2 weeks buys Bernie or his supporters. It doesn't buy them much. For all intents and purposes he did take it to the convention. So as much as Republicans would want this to be a big lie, it isn't a "big lie". And I think most of Bernie's supporters get that. Bernie, even though he didn't win, has done very well. He has succeeded in pushing Clinton further to the left. And Bernie isn't going away. He's going to be right there in the Senate to hold Clinton accountable. Bernie will still be pushing his agenda. Much to the chagrin of Republicans, that's not ending. And then their are all the lies Republicans have told each other, and continue to tell each other, which you and your fellow Republicans like to ignore. I think what irks and scares Republicans now is the facts that Democrats are unified going into their convention and Republicans are not. Even now some of The Donald's delegates are attempting to undermine his candidacy next week at the Republican convention. Former Republican presidential candidate Bush was interviewed yesterday. During that interview Bush said if Trump won the fall election, he would be scared for the country. He said if Trump lost the fall election, he would be sad. What does that tell you about the state of affairs on the right? Bush went further, he said conservatism is dead.
` ` As a former Sanders for President supporter, I am extremely disappointed that both him and Warren sold out to the likes of that cur, Hillary Clinton. Live and learn. I will never support a democratic candidate again, It's a party of liars; Obama, Hillary, Sanders and Warren. By the same token, unless the Republican purge their party of the religious right, tea partiers and now, Trump supporters, they'll never get my vote either. This makes voting so much simpler.
it feels like when our dad left our moms for the abusive lady, he should have endorsed jill stein the good mommy.
I would also like to see the extreme ideologies go away. We really need to get back to common sense. - - - Updated - - - He should have kept his word. Now he looks like a big doosh.....
I too am a fiscal conservative. Trapped in a democratic socialist body. And I cant decide which platform is the proper one for me to urinate on. I am still preop socialist. I have my fiscal conservative dangly bits.
Informing or misinforming? I think it's the latter. Who are those "many" exactly? Who has "written Trump off? Here is the thing with The Donald, those "many" are largely former Republican presidential candidates. There were 19 Republicans who ran for POTUS. The Donald has only manged to receive 40 percent of the Republican primary vote. It was enough to get him the Republican nomination. But now it's a 2 person race. It's a much different race. Forty percent isn't going to cut it in the general election. Trump needs more than 50% of the vote to win the fall election. Unlike The Donald, Clinton did receive more than 50% of the popular vote in the Democratic primaries. Additionally, Democrats are unified around their candidate. Republicans are not. Even now, Republicans are attempting to sabotage Trump's nomination by changing party rules. Former Governor Bush and former presidential candidate, said this of Trump, if Trump wins the fall election he would be scared. If Trump loses the fall election he will be sad. That's damning coming from a senior Republican like Bush. Bush went on to proclaim the death of conservatism.
If you are a millenial and want a future then conservative republicans are the way to go. The closer you are to retirement the more socialist you should be. Millenials are eating up the socialist stuff. I know it fails eventually but I also know I will not live forever.
Are you going to write-in Mickey Mouse or Peter Griffin? If you are going to waste your vote (by not voting one of the 2 major parties) you might as well get creative. Unless of course you plan on sitting it out.
not voting is just what republicans want, it's an old trick [video=youtube;pN7IB-d7Hfw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN7IB-d7Hfw[/video]
How does any of that make sense? Older folks are the Republican base. Most older folks are Republicans. Older folks are the backbone of the Republican Party. Young people tend to be Democratic by you own admission. The fact is the party offering the best deal for millennials is the Democratic Party. The incredible irony here is that Republicans think everyone else is just too dumb to figure out what is best for them. The reality is the only ones who are too dumb to figure out what's good are Republicans. Unfortunately, with he advent of Republican entertainment, Republicans have no need of evidence and reason. Republicans can now have their own facts and never be confronted with reality thanks to Republican entertainment.
I'm proud of Bernie Sanders and the campaign he ran. And I'm proud of the Democratic party as a whole and the campaigns all 3 candidates ran. They debated issues...they didn't get trashy and pathetic like the republicans and, in the end, they found compromise and created the most Progressive platform in Democratic history. They demonstrated the very ideal of how politics is supposed to work. Thank you Bernie Sanders for running an awesome campaign and furthering the Progressive agenda. And thank you Hillary Clinton for extending the olive branch and listening to what Sanders supporters want and ensuring that they can still get it. And mostly thank you for clearly illuminating the difference between classy Democratic politics and trashy republicans politics (nothing like listening to a politician ensuring Americans that his penis isn't extremely small...pathetic). Time to UNITE and get Hillary Clinton elected Democrats!!!!!! - - - Updated - - - Jill Stein is a great lady. I'd be voting for her too if the racist trump wasn't in the race.
Trump is the lesser evil to clinton, he is not a career politician, an anti establishment candidate, and somewhat against globalization, much like Bernie on the last two. why any Bernie voter would choose clinton who is against everything he stands for and not vote for Trump, who is almost the same as Bernie with the exception of not supporting feminism and universal health care? Trump wouldn't be ideal like Bernie, but he would make the economy better with the same kind of protectionism that takes wealth from the richer corporations that outsource jobs, and brings it back here.
