Do you seriously asking how accurate data in trollolo video? This video is obviously fake - Russian guy much lighter than Afro-american guy (in other words black guy looks like person who can can solve problem without external help) and a bad actor also - his "agressive" behavior looks so fake for Russians - and they mostly don't react to this. Meanwhile in vice versa situation black guys play their roles much better and attacks much more violently - and Russians react to this. But racism in Russia really existed - Russians hate pureblood Caucasian race so much. http://youtu.be/CXCuWhmB-Ow What race are Russians? I thought you were descendents from the Scandinavians which makes you white ?

But its a serious election considering how Trump has vilified and criticized Obama and dismissed any good he has done ?

And GD thinks you have deep insights on the reality of the US political system?

SHADY you never complain about much but this perspective from Obama really seems to have annoyed you? This would only apply to people who are committed to the Obama legacy, so if I was a US citizen then it would be relevant to me. But its not relevant to every Democrat and some people will vote for Johnson and Stein Obama is just highlighting a Trump victory will freeze and or undermine his legacy for the next 4 years, so it does matter?

WOD you love your drama don't you I don't see how either of these stories is linked to the USA becoming like the USSR?

Why what were you expecting that would have made it less boring ? The presidential debates are not suppose to be about theatre and entertaining people , they are suppose to be about discussing the issues. They did debate things like the birther controversy, the ISIS strategy, aspects of the economy, tax returns and other topics People keep saying " the debate was boring " so I am interested in what people would like from the agenda ? Trump freaking out ?, that would have been entertaining. Yeah, I want him to completely lose it ...that would be epic

No thats not me, volo Trump has done terribly amongst African Americans, he has offended them on numerous opportunities Clinton has over 90 % of the AA vote. It is strange if AA support Trump considering his racist attitude, like the birther scandal, but people are of course entitled to vote for who they want

No male candidate would get this type of criticism in this way ...." I dont like what she says because she is aesthetically displeasing to me " I'm sorry, didn't we spend a little under a decade comparing George Dubya Bush to a monkey and suggesting that's another tip-off he's just not that bright...? Um, no, we didn't? I mean, sure, political cartoonists and the like have always caricatured prominent politicians for laughs, in ways that play into their perceived weaknesses. But nobody was looking at W and saying out loud that "he's so unattractive, I can't bear to listen to him." Anyhow, Bruce missed the worst part of Gfted's post. It was the . So, not only is he judging a female candidate based on her appearance, while considering a male candidate's appearance (correctly) irrelevant to his qualifications, he is also demonstrating that, although he's aware of this judgmental double-standard, he doesn't care that he's perpetuating it. That's institutional sexism in a nutshell right there. But guys on a serious note Enoch is right about institutional sexism and part of it does manifest itself in the unusual way we seem to criticize Hilary. Yes its not that everyone does this and of course reasonable criticism is normal and expected but there is something far too extreme in some of the issues some people have with Hilary I am of the opinion most people dont realize they are actually judging Hilary on a gender bias perspective but it is real. I guess the best way to determine if you are being unfair is to ask yourself the honest question " would I say the exact same thing about my candidate " ?

You shouldn't be judging Hilary Clinton on her looks. I appreciate your honesty but your opinion, which probably is not intentional, highlights the constant levels of bias she faces from many of her detractors that a male presidential candidate wouldn't have to face. No male candidate would get this type of criticism in this way ...." I dont like what she says because she is aesthetically displeasing to me " Anyway for the record I thought she looked fine, she also was more presidential than Trump because you can see she really studied the issues and worked hard to prepare for this debate. It was obvious Trump had put no effort into understanding the core issues and he used his usual tactics of hyperbole, theatre and unsubstantiated comments in most of the debate Also when you watch the debate with the twin camera view you can see he starts looking visibly annoyed and frustrated as the debate continues, she remains phlegmatic and reserved most of the time. She has a much better control of her emotions than Trump

Thats a good video, yes racism is a problem in Russian society. This video confirms some of the worst aspects of it, I just am not sure how accurate the data is because the evidence is based on very few examples ?

Outside of Clinton and Trump being abducted by aliens and replaced with better candidates I wouldn't hold out much hope for that. "aliens " Come on my friend, its not that bad I accept Trump may win. I dont believe he will but I also believe Trump wont destroy the USA even if he is president. I guess I firmly see the " glass is half-full " as far as the next US president is concerned

GD now that you have had more time to reflect on the debate are you prepared to comment on who you think " won " the debate ? Lets not look at this from an emotional perspective but rather the overall points raised that are based on facts and real issues. For example the fact that Trump wont release his tax returns, again this is unacceptable and should be heavily criticized But I know on November 8 we are all going to lose. Okay, fair enough. You wont comment on who you think " won " this debate...lets wait until we have seen the next 2 debates Then hopefully people will feel more upbeat about the state of the US political system

It must be hard to finally recognize what an awful politician Trump is Volo....its okay, better late than never

http://edition.cnn.com/videos/politics/2016/09/27/trump-clinton-hofstra-debate-poll-chalian-sot.cnn So the important CNN poll after this first debate about who " won this debate " puts Clinton on 62 % and Trump on 27 % A resounding victory for the Clinton camp ( yes 10 % more of the people polled are Democratic supporters but still the overall numbers speak for themselves )

http://edition.cnn.com/2016/09/26/politics/presidential-debate-hillary-clinton-donald-trump/index.html Huge debate tonight guys, the first of 3. Its going to be very exciting

No you guys keep making that assumption, its wrong. I like Hungarian, Bulgarian and Ukrainian strippers I always say I dont get on with Russian strippers

Sure, we all possess negative traits, and they all surface at various points. But what are the dominant traits for these candidates? Clinton seems to be dominated by greed and a need to be in control. Trump seems to be dominated by ego and condescension. Yes but we cant say Clintons natural personality of wanting to control her campaign and strategies means she will be like this if she becomes president "?

volo Im not shallow., you can trust me on this

They are all Marvel owned actors and were required to do this by a company. I don't know where your impression of me came from, but I suspect it's just a projection. I respect ambitious, hard working people if they want to earn money. I don't respect people who are selling themselves for money. Prostitution in any form is not respectable. My bad, I was under the impression you worked to make money as a real objective

Yes it was well done, lets be fair now. I doubt anyone particularly cares what the actual celebs think I would prefer a celeb I thought was hot like Nicki Minaj telling me who to vote for but I still wouldn't EVER vote Trump

It's sad what people are willing to do for $$$ Come on dude its actually a very good contribution that these actors have done I enjoyed it and its mostly true but lets not make it out that Trump can destroy the USA.. But they not getting paid for this as its a political advert But I'll be honest sharp_one I find it strange you have an issue with people who want to earn money? You do strike me as someone who will do basically anything if the money is there Hopefully we get to see that actor naked hey Sharp

No She is trying to create a tough impression in the video but its suppose to be cliched and an imitation of Trump

You make some good points in this post in a reasonable way, I dont always agree with your posts which is normal for any forum but I do appreciate the way you put effort into your views I noticed you never actually said " I live in country x " yet you have global views so I was wondering . When you first started posting I didnt think you would stay here long. I mentioned this to you, I wasn't being condescending just honest. I find it a little concerning we dont keep new members but end of the day if no one esle cares then I wont push it Also our first interaction wasn't very indelible in the sense you made one of those Internet platitude comments which never really impress me because I feel even if its Internet we can still debate normally. I made an incorrect assumption about you but after the debate around Iraq I realised you were much more knowledgeable than I thought and there was more to you than the impression I thought I am glad I was wrong because you are very interesting and its great you have stayed active How do you find these forums ? How do you think the members are and have people made you feel welcome. Now you probably an old Internet hand so you dont see a forum like this but I would be interested in your opinion if you will share
