The Hot New Thing In The Democratic Party: White Men

It's a very dangerous thing to assume all the climatologists, oceanographers, & weathermen putting their professional reputations on the line saying the evidence supports the conclusion that global warming is real, are all wrong & we'll be OK ignoring their warnings. This is a GLOBAL threat, & we'd better get our heads screwed on right.

With the majority of his actions while president of the united states being unconstitutional, and a gross overstep of the authority of office. His term as president of the united states was due to affirmative action, not qualification. The rest of the world laughed at the united states his entire eight years, knowing the country was nothing more than a joke.

 

If it is a global threat, then there is nothing that the united states can do about it on its own. And as other countries will not make efforts to address the problem, there is simply no sense for the united states to try and go it alone.

 

That's not how it was introduced, or later explained, but if that's the current narrative, I'm OK with that.

That said, the only thing in that entire plan that has any basis in reality is upgrading our electrical grid. One of the best ways to go about that would be HIGHLY expensive for every current home owner. We need to up the voltage to 220 or even 440 to reduce line loss and raise efficiency. These can easily, not so much cheaply, reduced when the power gets to the house.

 

So, you are chosing someone based on their race and their sex?

How is this NOT sexist or racist? Honestly, that is the literal definition of sexism and racism?

You guys saying 'but it is their turn!' like there is some game to be played means you do not want the best person for the job, you want some type of social engineering.

That is downright scary and is what this thread is talking about.

While you Leftists may think this is a good idea, Independents are running away from you as it is seen indeed as racist and sexist. Using "Intersectionality" to try to explain such racism and sexism is simply not working with the public according to the polls.

They see your opinion as sexist and racist, which by definition, it is.

 

Some of the dems are whiter than white.

 

Obama had more government experience than Trump.

 

Thank you. I am a white independent and I feel better now.

 

That was Trump's biggest asset.

 

Which does not mean he was any better qualified for the job than Donald Trump, as many of his actions were still unconstitutional. Thus meaning he knew what he was doing was wrong at the time, but he simply did not care.

 

Women have not been president due to none of them passing the American smell test.

Some may point to Hillary's total vote count. She got beat by a man that actually understood the electoral college system. She refused to appeal to enough states to tip the balance her way. She should have known better as well as how it is done. She saw it happen for her husband and he was at her side when she ran for office. She can't allege ignorance since she played her fame system to be elected to the state of New York Senators job.

How many other women are there to leap all the way to Senator from housewife?

She did it and knew they system.

 

I'm a white female and I see the inequality and prejudice in certain areas as well. But I will vote for the individual who has the strongest policies that will put the country in the strongest position. If that candidate is a woman, I will be overjoyed. But if that is not the case, I will not be voting solely on the basis of sex.

 

A woman serving as president of the united states will do absolutely nothing to address matters of gender inequality in the world. Considering just how hostile and toxic the united states is, any woman who would eventually serve as president of the united states, especially if they are a republican, will be met with the same scorn and abuse as Donald Trump currently.

 

The only people who DON'T know that global warming is a threat to all humanity, are those who willfully CHOOSE to reject the evidence. It is out there for everyone to see.

 

How many male leaders have suffered the same fate? I would be willing to guess, more than two. Humanity is composed of two genders, but historically, only one has had the freedom to pursue their personal dreams without restrictions. It's long past time to rectify that wrong.

 

If you examine the evidence closely and critically you will find that it does not prove the theory that human caused CO2 emissions will result in catastrophic global warming.

 

That's a rather glum, undeserved view--and not very accurate either.

 

I have nothing against women rising to positions of power and wealth, and in the modern western civilization there is nothing stopping them from doing so. What I am saying is we should not expect governments or corporations to be any better or worse just because women are running them.

 

I agree that no one country can tame global warming working alone. But before Trump, the U.S. was working with most other countries to begin a response. Trump removed us from that effort altogether, and has shut down open discussion of the issue as well. This is a major rejection of leadership issue for the U.S., & I sincerely hope American voters replace Trump in 2020, & allow us to resume that very important leadership role in the world.

 

1. Global warming deniers made a huge effort to distort & dismiss the Green New Deal as a political hoax, but Democrats have repeatedly described it as a general guide to needed actions, not a hard-core mandate. It's an idea generator for those willing to offer their ideas or help in any way. It tries to provide a focal point for action starting now, & continuing thru the next decade+.
2. Your thoughts here on the electrical grid are both valid & helpful, and should be a part of the overall New Green Deal selections for action.

 

Your post is an excellent example of anyone's ability to turn anyone's comment into ANY interpretation. You should consider a career as a propagandist.

 

I'm not voting EXCLUSIVELY on the basis of gender either. There are several Democratic female candidates I definitely don't support in the primaries, and if they were the ONLY females running, I'd vote for the male. I'm simply saying, I prefer voting for a QUALIFIED female this round. I think that would be good for the country.

 

Whether you choose to believe it or not, it's actually already happening. Scientists care about the planet & the life living on it. They are trying to warn us, but they don't make the decisions--politicians do. And people like you elect the politicians, so NOTHING gets done. Someday that fact might come back to haunt you.

 

I agree. But statistically speaking, women are more prone to value peace than men, and this world needs peace.
