I can understand how you can see this as hubris but he means it a positive way. Its not about him, its about his legacy...thats what matters. So yes African American should vote for Hilary Clinton because she plans to continue with the momentum of his legacy which benefits many minorities but its not at the expense of white people as Trump positions it

But even the article clearly says " someone who appears to be Hillary Clinton’s former private computer specialist " and " so while it’s impossible to know if it's definitely him, a number of breadcrumbs point in Combetta's direction " You guys are basing your view on speculation and hearsay that this person who asked this question is in fact Hilary Clinton's previous "computer specialist " There is no real evidence the person who asked the question on reddit is who he says he is. Does this not concern you that you making assumptions around his identity ?

http://motherboard.vice.com/read/hillary-clinton-tech-guy-asked-reddit-for-email-advice The sheer ineptitude is mind boggling. Guy goes to public forum to ask how to screw emails with an account that can be linked to his real name. And he's their "IT guy". This link is illogical and doesn't make sense The whole point of having an archive system for Ediscovery is you cannot strip an email address and then expect the data to be seen as consistent or not tampered with. You can edit a previously sent email but then when you resave it will reflect a completely different modified date. And even if somehow are able to do this on the backend server you cannot change the copy that is stored on the archive system. This is the point of " chain of custody " around email archiving/Ediscovery I dont believe this reddit story for one second, it makes no technical sense and I would encourage people to ignore this as the people propagating this as a " valid concern " dont understand much of how archive systems work or how the Electronic Discovery Reference model – EDRM is designed

You raise some interesting points, we agree on some things but disagree on most things Anyway we are so far divided on our views on certain topics there is no way we would convince each other so it seems pointless to continue this particular debate Until next time

Its no surprise to me, there are many Trump supporters on this forum. Most of them live outside the USA Hilary seems to have the least amount of support on these forums, I am surprised she got so much support

What you having for dinner tonight?
Thats a very good story, I felt a real vicarious connection to what you said ....I'm hungary now and I want Jamaican ribs I also love cooking, it relaxes me and I find it therapeutic on several levels. I also enjoy shopping for ingredients specific to a meal and I love farmers markets that sell local products like cheese and pâté de foie gras The UK must have some of the best farmers markets in the world ?

Your capacity for self-delusion never fails to amaze me. Meshugger are you seriously comparing the musical genius of Hendrix with the demagoguery, pandering, hyperbole and offensive strategies and comments of Trump....is that your comparison to the current rise of Trump? oh you poor sweet, innocent thing. Why does life have to be so cruel to you? ...

Volo please be honest. You can whine, use hyperbole and criticize your government as much as you want ....but do you think you would survive even a month without a government running Canada? You need to be told what to do because if decisions were left to you your country would absolutely collapse Can you imagine Canadian Finance Minister : " Volo should people pay tax ? ...... Volo : " No, taxes are Nazi systems that try to control people...I believe in a free society " Canadian Finance Minister " But then we need to increase corporate tax " Volo " No I dont like corporates because they are a form of SJW Nazi control ...we dont need corporations in our society as they push a SJW agenda " Canadian Finance Minister " But how will we manage the government budget and achieve fiscal stability " Volo " Budget? Fiscal stability ? Those are meaningless terms used by Nazis and SJW to enforce control over citizens ....I reject those things " And when the electricity stops working and suddenly you cant access the Internet anymore you will realize the great circus is over ....the great illusion has ended. Guess what volo, RL and RL institutions like governments matter and have real responsibilities and real deliverables to citizens They dont exist on the Internet and worry about meaningless things like " Nazi SJW " nonsense

Interesting that you omitted that the media was taken for a ruse to show how incompetent they are and how they now have to admit the following instead: Please do a little research before saying " Hilary started the Birther Obama controversy " Its has been debunked many times now, Hilary Clinton did not start this malicious rumour http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/sep/23/donald-trump/hillary-clinton-obama-birther-fact-check/ http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/09/16/no-hillary-clinton-did-not-start-birther-movement/90500762/ Bill Clinton, is that you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYnl6GMOBIA Kate Bolduan is a very astute political commentator, she has the daily show on CNN " State of the Race " and yes the various CNN commentators are right. Trump not only wasted peoples time but he horribly flip flopped on this issue This is something we should all be condemning as it shows how Trump uses the media when it suits him but then whines about " the media is biased and has horrible people working for it " when the " media " doesn't comment on what he likes Why should we be condemning him for using something that is against him and benefiting from it doing what it thinks it should be doing? Normally we praise people for that. So what is it then as I am confused? Is the media as many people on this forum suggest biased against Trump Or is the media not biased when Trump decides to use them? Because as I keep saying the media is not fundamentally biased, the media reports on what candidates do and what they say

Yes I am aware of a view from some that " Trump is doing everything right " This is of course subjective. Some people think letting a comedian play with Trumps hair demonstrates Trump has a human side and " cant be that bad " Of course Trump is human and has some positive ideas. He is not all bad , he is not like some despotic world leaders like Mugabe or Putin But his views on " how to make America great again " concern me immensely. He is cavalier with the truth and is happy to make comments in the interests of political expediency and the later retracts them when it suits him. I am really only concerned with realistic views on policy that are consistent and feasible and Trump keeps failing in this regard

http://edition.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/donald-trump-obama-birther-united-states/ Guys this link highlights again reasons I am always amazed people people would want to support Trump Trump has for the last 5 years questioned if Obama was born in the USA, he constantly has supported a view that Obama isnt an American citizen. It was a disgraceful and malicious campaign and had a racist undertone to delegitimize Obama as the first African American president He has now admitted Obama was born in the USA No candidate has flip-flopped as much on policy and comments as Trump. He is inconsistent on so many topics like his economic policy and the fact he wont release his tax returns And some people still think he is best candidate to be the next US president

volo you mustn't see it as Nazism when governments try to improve the lives of all its citizens by enforcing rules and being concerned with human rights This is about a better society for all, I'm surprised you think this has anything to do with Nazism ?

What's Portuguese flavor? piri-piri, coriander and bay leaf? to a lesser degree, saffron and parsley is also common. we don't typical think o' ribs as a common portuguese dish, save for braised short ribs. we do almost no portuguese cooking. we got a housekeeper who is portuguese and she makes us food, but she refuses to teach us portuguese cooking. she looked so terribly sad and disappointed the one time she caught us experimenting that we hasn't dared try since. HA! Good Fun! Portuguese spare ribs I think can be an anomaly to many in the spare rib world. Just to be clear this refers to the sauce the ribs get served in In South Africa we have strong Portuguese influences in our food because of the Portuguese community that lives here. So normally you get Sweet and Sour and Barbeque flavored ribs in SA but Portuguese ribs are a flavor between those two They are not sweet but hotter and more spicy than Barbeque yet the heat is not extreme but more flavorsome ....its hard to explain but I hope you get what I mean
