Guard Dog Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 The Iowa caucus (where people actually start voting) are just two weeks away. Until then this monkey poop fight will hit fever pitch. After that some of the monkeys will start dropping out. But we still have a long hard slog to November. In the mean time here are the latest polls: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/2016_republican_presidential_nomination-3823.html & http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/2016_democratic_presidential_nomination-3824.html And this was my favorite cartoon from the last monkey poop fight: 2 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calax Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 The Caucus can go **** right off.... The day after is going to be pure hell for us. Right now we're (Rental car compant in Des Moines) pulling cars from basically everyone we can to keep up with reservations, because every one and their brother is in town for the caucus (and I'm getting 18 emails a day saying "Come Caucus!" And a very amateurish Bernie Sanders volunteer), and they ALL RETURN THE SAME DAY. Realize, this isn't 100 or even 200 cars returning in one day, that we can deal with, this is closer to 1000 vehicles being returned to a location that usually supports 750... Also it's terrible working within 5 minutes of where everyone has their "Townhall Meetings" http://www.lhf.org/ Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Oerwinde Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I think its funny that we had our longest election in like 100 years, not quite 4 months long, and everyone complained it was too long. I can't even imagine having one like a year and a half long. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruceVC Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 What did you think about Donald Trump? He is a demagogue and even though I can recognize his skill in industry and business acumen he also represents the worst aspects of Capitalism He is arrogant, dismissive. bombastic and has very little regard for the consequences of his words or views. He will be a terrible president for the USA because he will drag the USA back to an era of the " you either with us or against us " Most of the problems the global community grapples can be resolved through dialogue and following tried and tested examples of Western ideology....this means free markets, democracies and a respect for human rights The USA has a very important role as one of the foundations of Western ideology and Trump will just take the West backwards if he becomes president for 4 years So I support the Democrat view on the way the USA should influence global events...not Trumps " lets just build a wall " comments 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

ShadySands Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I don't think there is an official definition for a natural born citizen.

PK htiw klaw eriF Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 One thing I don't understand, Cruz was born in Canada, I thought you had to be born in the US to run for president. No, you have to be a citizen at the time of birth, which means either you are born in the US or one of your parents were a US citizen. It only got obfuscated because some people thought Obama was born in Kenya, which wouldn't have mattered because his mother was a US citizen.

Calax Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 This debate needs to a touch less moderation.
