    My view is that it depends on the type of president we have. If the President flaunts our laws, has no respect for our 3 branches of government, degrades our institutions and our democracy, cavorts with people of immoral character, and is of immoral character, dishonors our Constitution, brings hired stooges into his/her inner circle, then I cannot think that one party should be in control of all three branches of government.,

    If the president upholds the Constitution, is compassionate, respects our three branches of government and institutions, brings patriots into his/her inner circle and cabinet, respects our laws, then I would trust one party to control all 3 branches of government.
    It's a stretch, though, to have all the qualities necessary.

    Do you also believe men should rule the world?

    Just wow! Moi621 may choose whatever historical figures she wants, but I don't choose George Wallace or Strom Thurmond or Bull Conners or those of that ilk.

    HISTORY is not racist.


    HERstory is!


    To Be Absolutely Clear
    Moi :oldman:
    believes the best qualified candidate should gain the advancement.
    Without regard to race, gender, sexual preference and what nots.
    Today Asian people feel a negative over diversity admissions
    regardless of the best qualified


    To Believe The Quote - Can Only Be Achieved Via A

    Multi Racial Supreme Court IS RACIST.

    Anyone who advocates such multi racial, gender, sexual preference
    latitude because it is the right thing to do regardless of aptitude,
    PLEASE apply it to professional sports!

    Imagine:
    You know no one and seek a good attorney, find a Jewish name.
    You know no one and seek a good physician, find a Jewish name.
    Affirmative Action FREE.

    Let's get to the point of aptitude. The Best for the job.
    And if that leads to demographic disparity, apply it to basketball.

    Today the best qualified, who happen to be Asian, experience the
    negative, just as Jewish students did years ago.
    Affirmative Action color coded bean counters affirm racism
    believing in equal representation yet not in sports scholarships too.


    A Truly Color Blind, ( gender, sexual preference :blahblah:) society
    is based on "aptitude".


    What Part Do I Have Incorrect?


    Moi :oldman:





    No :flagcanada:

    Please, do not edit my uploads :angered: for cheap shots

    oops, edited in, you did not edit
    Regardless

    May the individual with the best aptitude for the job be promoted.
    Just like basketball

    History has shown the opinions of men prevail. I suggest you grab a broom.

    I think he gets it. He is just trying to make the point that History is filled with the idea that white men are the only ones who made desicions, and pushed women into a servntary role. He had a crappy way of pointing that out, but meh.

    @JakeStarkey
    @Vegas giants
    @Turin

    A Leader Is Empowered By Those Who Follow Their Leadership.

    Leadership is an aptitude.
    Lookism is also involved.
    It seems so simple, yet the "unfairness" the "unliberalness" of it seems to bother people that many would prefer NOT THE BEST FOR THE JOB.
    Go figure.

    no so sure, republicans changed the rules, so dems could add a couple seats and fill them with only 50 votes when they take power now

    btw, the SC has been republicans for the last couple decades - just now it's far right and maybe partisian

    What about "swing votes" as they do occur?
    Seems to Moi we more often witness expected Republican justices
    swinging to the Left now and then, than we do from the Left to the Right.

    Look to history. Your words not mine.

    Historically men run things. You will be changing diapers

    For the vast majority of my life I would have voted No, however this current batch of democrats, nearly every last one of them, is just stupid beyond belief. Just listen to any single one of them talk. Truly listen to the things coming out of the mouths of people like Pelosi, Shumer, Waters, Harris, Sparticus, Warren, Sanders, it is unbelievable. And you don't even have to search around to find stupidity, just pic ANY sound bite at all, any. It is like handing the car keys over to a 6 year old child. People on the left think all republicans are evil, but we don't think democrats are stupid, the difference is that they demonstrate it daily so we KNOW that they are. See the difference.

    Not at all, Starfox. You have fallen prey to that which you counsel against. Both sides have many leaders and followers who are all fouled up. It is in both parties.

    No. It is far better to have gridlock which prevents the government from doing even more things incompetently.

    I don't want any party controlling any part of government. I prefer people with integrity that are leaders of men not followers of parties.

    Here is my vote:
    *Other - Please specify below.
    The Trinity has outlived its time. From my understanding, government (The Trinity) was supposed to have long passed and the citizens were supposed to be be ruling themselves by now.
    All is not well with Virginia and Maryland because her spawns have gotten out of control, and think themselves rulers, rather than servants.
