No because you are dismissing the views of large numbers of Canadians, Trudeau won a majority. In other words why do you feel you are better than all those people? I would still say its unpatriotic and very arrogant If he narrowly won then I would say you have a point ...but he didn't I am not sure if your logic actually holds water, or is this one of those cases that is in effect only when you support those that are in power? So Elerond hear me out for a second as you are logical, watch this interview and tell me what you think about Trudeau http://wn.com/justin_trudeau_cnn_interview_in_davos_for_fareed_zakaria_gps

Oby are you posting Russian stripper videos..can I start saying again how much I appreciate your finest export? Or will you say I'm childish

That must have been an amazing experience, how did you feel being able to do your own thing and just have a life? Of course the Meds are also working but I'm sure the experience was great I have never stayed in bed that long but for me I can do it everyday so it seems like a waste We got a lot of TV watching done. Binged the last 4 episodes of the Expanse, latest Supernatural, etc. Beat Witcher 3 last night, started AssCreed Unity this morning after Machete. Spent most of the day doing that. Went shopping and am now making red curry for dinner. No screaming, no breaking of things, just quiet. I need like a month of this. Unfortunately the kids come home tomorrow. I really have sympathy for you, even if I wasn't dealing with depression\rage I dont think I could cope with your sons naughtiness Especially if this is normal behavior, how many years is this expected?

Trump is a rude, offensive and arrogant demagogue. You can't seriously compare him to how Hilary conducts herself? Yes he is very charismatic but lets give your fellow Canadians some credit, he believes in a better economy and better overall life for all Canadians. He is very convincing so why wouldnt you vote for him...I listened to his interview, he is not a fool Compare him to Trump.....you Canadians seem to be an unpatriotic bunch?

Volo thats very offensive....its sexist ? I watched an interview on CNN with your prime minister. I was very impressed, he is intelligent and sincere and really seems to care about creating a better society. He convinced me and I would proudly support him

Not really, what do mean the " things'll only get worse for the rest of the world." You not suggesting things in the EU are going to be worse? In what way? While you considering what is getting worse let me tell you what is getting worse. emerging markets like South Africa and the Middle East. But this is due to the oil price and the Chinese economy restructuring ....so I am genuinely interested in what you think is so bad? I am really irritated by the Chinese and there false friendship towards Africa

Guys supporting the Democrats on this thread there are two things I wish I feel sometimes I am part of your group and I can also vote ...but then I realize I can't vote and its just a dream Don't you guys wish GD would vote Democrat ...I feel bad that he isn't part of our group If the Democrats win, Sanders or Hilary, are we allowed to invite GD to the Internet forum party

And I think a lot of Hillary's intangability for the population really comes down to how her campaign portrays her. I've said it before, and will say it again, her experiance makes everything she says (unless she's caught almost totally off guard) come off as prepared. So people don't like her because her speeches are prepared ? You also support her Calax...sorry I forgot And I think a lot of Hillary's intangability for the population really comes down to how her campaign portrays her.

Nice post Leferd, I wish you commented more and I'm not suggesting this because you are minority therefore you must know these types of things It just get sometimes draining having to seemingly defend Clinton ....and I'm even American( yet )

Oh that's a load of bull. It is impossible to classify the politics of an entire state you have never visited by the reputation you think it has because of what you've read on the internet. Yes obviously GD But I want valid opinions about the states, anecdotal if possible. I can research a lot, I have relatives in the USA and I watch international media but your stories are important ...I share them with people on the radio and other mediums so people don't generalize about the USA

Oh....why didn't you let me know before I made that point ? Remember just because I'm speaking on your behalf it doesn't mean you can't sometimes correct me....this is not a dictatorship, I believe in SJ

Why? Because the Democrats believe in supporting the middle class and also supporting minorities ....they are seen in this light at least and believe in the Federal government intervening in some ways to achieve this. So for me I would also support the Democrats if I was a minority because there always seems to be Trump in every election in the Republicans Now of course not every minority supports the Democrats and the vast numbers of Republican supporters on this forum are not like Trump but end of the day the Republican party has lost its way. They can restore themselves but they need to ask what they stand for For example the Democrats haven't offended the Latino population or women like Trump did, until the Republicans can learn to curtail this type of behavior they will suffer in the polls IMO

Correct minorities must vote for Clinton

Yes I know that, I'm just pointing out that the USA\West will now be blamed for the collapse of Afghanistan ..so don't get upset when this happens (I know you personally don't believe that but others may )

In what way was GWB's foreign policy seriously different than the democrat's? Gore would not have gone into Afghanistan after 9-11. He definitely would not have gone into Iraq ever. The invasion of Afghanistan was and is perfectly justified..we can debate Iraq but not Afghanistan. But its time to pull out of Afghanistan But mark my words .....the moment the USA pulls out of Afghanistan it will resort to a more active civil war and maybe the Taliban will gain control again And once again remember my powers of prognostication you will see the likes of Zora saying " the USA has also destroyed Afghanistan like Iraq I'm just using Zora as an example ...I hope he won't say that but people will say that who are anti-Western But the West cannot stay forever in Afghanistan, they have been there long enough...and guys please remember when the USA pulls out Afghanistan will be in a working condition. The reason I'm harping on this is I'm so tired of the revisionist history we see from many people who blame the invasion of Iraq for the creation of ISIS But the USA left Iraq in a working condition...ISIS didn't exist then. AL-Maliki was repeatedly told to ensure he incorporates the Sunni minority ..he didn't and they became more disillusioned and were victims of Shia violence so when the Syrian war started many Sunni traveled to Syria and ISIS was formed. Some of the the Iraq Sunni also had ties with Al-Qaeda in Iraq and had been fighting the Americas the new Iraq government for years...but the most relevant point is Al-Maliki could have incorporated the Sunni and prevented them from being marginalized in the new Iraq. But some people just ignore this and even some Muslim leaders say things like " The USA is responsible for ISIS" and ignore the other reasons Finally the reason Im mentioning this is because there is a massive difference between how the USA left Iraq and them being responsible for the creation of ISIS....let me know if anyone needs more info on this distinction The bottom line is the West is NOT directly responsible for ISIS

Thanks Guys, I'm having a Skype session tomorrow with them where we will discuss more about what the job actually entails I'll come back with more questions so please respond if you can and be honest even if you think its weird...for example maybe you think Georgia is a bad place because its full of SJ types ( thats a joke but you know what I mean )

GD did you read that link by Fareed Zakaria I posted about how the Republican party has been let down through the years by there presidents ...he talks about exactly what you mention. So its not just you who feels this way

Wow that is pretty cool. I used to live in West Palm Beach in South Florida. It's certainly got you covered for weather but you can forget going to the countryside. There isn't one. It's non stop city from Ft. Pierce to Key West. But if you like beaches and watersports that is the place to be. It's expensive to live there though. I won't hazard a guess how much they are offering you but if you select a city in south Florida (if that is even an option) do your research. Yes I have been to Florida...its very hot and I'm not a beach person, I don't go in the sun because I don't like getting burned so I'm very, very white ..a real computer geek But I love swimming, I just use factor 30 sun screen. Also when I say I enjoy having breaks outdoors I mean its similar to what you do when you say you go for a walk with the dogs to cold creek and swim. Thats what I mean, a hike somewhere and then a swim at the end but not actually getting burned My plan is not to spend any money initially on expensive property if I decide to go so Florida sounds like it would be wasted on me

Yes....TN....does it make sense?

I have. It involves me moving to Canada. Hah, feel free to leave. Odd that you would flee to a country with higher tax and universal health care to get away from a democrat, but what-evs. It's not because she's a democrat. Hell, out of the people who have a reasonable shot at winning, I'd probably vote for Bernie. I decided a long time ago that if Hillary Clinton ever became president, I was leaving the country. As far as I'm concerned she's amoral, power-hungry, willing to do or say whatever to gather more power, and has no concern for the well-being of anyone other than herself. I don't trust her at all, and am fairly certain that given the chance, she'd gladly turn the US into a dictatorship with herself in power. Come on...are you being serious? Please trust me when I say you don't want to leave the USA just because of Hilary ....you will realize that the problems in other countries are much worse than your perception of Hilary Clinton

Yes I am very fortunate....its weird because most South Africans would jump at this but for me I feel I have a commitment here but I still want to understand what moving would mean Good point, they have branches in major cities of each state but you work from home, have virtual meetings and manage your appointments so I am basically talking about living in the capital city of each state and not living in the country side How is Arizona? It looks very hot from what I have seen, can you describe life there. If you don't mind any details you can share ?

I had a interesting job offer on Friday, the software that I sell and work with comes from the USA and the company made me a job offer to move to the USA. They said I could move to Texas, Oregan, NY, California, Virginia, Arizona, Massachusetts, Florida or Georgia as these are all considered hubs and I could stay in any of those places Its a really good deal and a great privilege and I need to consider it. But I am looking for feedback from anyone who stays in those states and what those states are like I have been to some of those states but only for a few days at a time, I am easy going and don't mind where I stay as anywhere in the USA would be good for me as I would move by myself and all my family are in NY but they aren't close to me. I am not use to the cold and would prefer a big city vibe but also a city where I can go into the country side for a break

She is Finnish? Dude wft......how did she become so conservative, I thought you guys were liberal She is daughter of economic refugees that left their country when it was in bad shape after war. Also she is american born, meaning that she is corrupted Phew....okay you dodged that bullet, as far as I'm concerned you have no responsibility for what she thinks or says
