In less than 24 hours Kamala has flip flopped on her "Medicare for all".

You're right. She's an idiot, can't speak
without a prompter, is totally unlikable,
has a creepy laugh, has a checkered
past. We're scared she WON'T get the
nomination.

We know you regularly post things you don’t really believe. This is one of those times.

I absolutely positively believe she would
be a far worse candidate than Hillary was.
Do you even listen to her talk? I was looking
at her grilling of Kavanaugh yesterday, it
was embarrassing. She was such an awful
AG in Calif, the Right is salivating to get her
in the hot seat.

Cold Kreepy Kamala, please get the nomination.

Would someone please tell Howard Schultz what the word spoiler means.

Third party candidates can't be so dim as to not understand they are much more likely to ruin someone else's chance at being POTUS than they are to be elected.

Ross Perot knew he was not going to be elected. He ended in 2nd place in only Maine and that was by the tiniest fraction of a percent.

In the 11 states that Clinton beat HW Bush by less than 5%, Perot averaged 18.7% of the vote. The 107 Electoral College Votes that went to Clinton would have elected HW Bush to a second term

Clinton's % Margin - % Perot - Electoral College Votes
  1. 0.59% Georgia 13.34% 13
  2. 1.22% New Hampshire 22.59% 4
  3. 1.83% Ohio 20.98% 21
  4. 2.37% New Jersey 15.61% 15
  5. 2.51% Montana 26.12% 3
  6. 2.63% Nevada 26.19% 4
  7. 3.21% Kentucky 13.66% 8
  8. 4.26% Colorado 23.32% 8
  9. 4.35% Wisconsin 21.51% 11
  10. 4.61% Louisiana 11.81% 9
  11. 4.65% Tennessee 10.09% 11


Think how different history might have been if Perot realized he was on an ego trip and pulled out of the race.

Schultz will never run, he's just trying
to sell his book. It would ruin Starbucks
if half the country boycotted, which
some are already doing.

And the country owes them a great debt of gratitude for that. The current two [one] part system is patriotic death to the freedom minded.

The sooner the two party's collapse, the better for the world.

Won't happen. No matter the system a majority must be formed. Which means the like-minded must congregate to one group.

At the moment the most likely collapse scenario would be that the Democrat Party fractures among the Democrat Socialists and a more moderate group. The moderate group would have to swing between making deals with the GOP and Democrat Socialists. Pretty much zero chance that happens.
The President is a fink.

Then why do they run? It is obvious they are more likely to steal votes from the candidate who matches their positions more, as an independent has no chance of winning, especially under the Electoral College. I just don't get it.

This concept was clear to the kids on Little House on the Prairie when Mary got tricked into running for student president. So why can't a billionaire get it?
