    Oh ! we all need reminding of that little factoid.
    Now repeat after me ... { substituting Trump for Home }
    There's No place like Trump
    There's no place like Trump
    There's no place like Trump.
    While little Johnny Appleseed asks his Mommy
    What kinda place is Trump ... Maw.
    Why Johnny ... It's The bestest place on Earth.
    I knew that ... Maw ... Just checkin'.

    I give the old hippy Bernie credit for consistency. He was always a commie and never claimed otherwise. He didn't base his position on polling or change position based on which way the wind was blowing. I despise his commie views but respect him to some degree for always keeping it real.

    And Barack Obama was the First Black to be President of the Harvard
    Law Review.Never *once wrote a Law review.
    I gets how this kinda resume thingy works.
    Do Yuz.
    Of the 4 Obama's attending Harvard a researcher found only
    Barack truly merited admission.
    Barack Obama Sr. got in care of a Foreign Exchange program.
    Before Affirmative Action.
    Later was told to leave for constant womanizing.
    Michelle got in to Harvard even though her SAT scores and grades
    were far from acceptable.She applied to Princeton,also.
    Malia got in c/o her resume of alumni.Her Family members.
    In fairness to her that used to be The normal course for admission
    into Harvard.What family member attended.It was ridiculously
    weighted in the 50's and 60's.Then came Affirmative Action.

    * Legend has it that Barack Obama did write ONE law review
    a year before he Graduated Harvard.Good luck stumbling upon it.

    Well, I guess the bright side is that the DNC still has eight toes to shoot off.

    It was bandied about that If the Bern drops out { this was some weeks ago }
    and pledges his support for Biden he will get compensated.
    Probably a New House.

    good for him, now he and his wife have time to sail their new yacht down to the Caymans to pick out their democrat party funded 4th house. Poor Bernie.

    This is great news! The good little Socialists on here have taken their marching orders and are going all in on Biden. I was worried they might pull the rug out from under him and insert someone that could bring a jolt of energy. Things can change quickly, but so far they are being perfect little drones.

    There is no question he got paid off. I doubt he would dare purchase a fourth home with that money. My guess, it is far offshore by now.

    I heard when his aids told Joe Biden the good news that Bernie Sanders dropped out the race Joe's reply was

    "I did? Why did I do that?"

    And it seems that as long as she was willing to give them money they were willing to pass her through because judging by what comes out her mouth she didn't learn very much.

    Because she thought she lost a bunch of tax revenue from Amazon who never moved in:). She graduated in Economics but doesn’t have a clue how it works.

    I'm surprised too. He wasn't going to win the nomination, but more delegates would have given his agenda more weight in the Convention.

    But, unlike the Republicans in the Supreme Court, he thought it was better to save lives than to seek political gain. Which goes to show what putting somebody who cares so little in human beings that they would do things like sexually harass women, will get you. And now we have two of them on the Republican wing of the Supreme Court, vs none in the Independent wing.

    You must not watch Saturday Night Live.

    What Palin actually said.

    What insight into Russian actions, particularly during the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of this state give you?”

    To which she gave an earnest, but widely ridiculed, response: “They’re our next-door neighbors. And you can actually see Russia, from land, here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.”

    What Tina Fey said.

    “I can see Russia from my house.”

    So she didn't say she could see Russia from her window but noted that her state which she governs actually shares a border when asked about the proximity................so what?

    AOC turns 31 in October.

    AOC will turn 35 in 2024 (born in 89). Could run.

    But, in 2024 it will either be Biden running for re-election or Biden's VP (Harris?) running.
