    What I like about Bernie is that I believe he honestly states what he believes and I think that is what attracts people to him. He has also probably conducted himself with the greatest amount of dignity when compared to the remaining active candidates. But this idea that if the Jewish people were simply nice to the Islamists that the Islamists would accept the existence of Israel as a Jewish state, in my mind, is simply delusional and dangerous as you point out.

    Exactly!

    At least with Bernie..... if The Donald were to come out with strong statements to do something about flaws in Federal Reserve policy..... there is a real chance that Bernie might echo The Donald's ideas...... and truly mean it!

    I just got sent a blog........ that sure raises some interesting questions?????!

    This guy thinks the GOPe would try to simulate an ISIS attack to elect Hillary? He needs to quit sniffing glue. I do think the GOPe probably thinks they would be better off losing than winning with Trump, but nobody is going to try anything like this. And if they did, it wouldn't work, folks would get killed and they would go to prison. Only Hillary gets to commit felonies without going to Prison.

    The author's name is Dave Hodges............. I agree that he is exaggerating the probable danger but...... he did make a good point with:

    A lot of powerful people in America will indeed go to pretty extreme lengths to ensure that America does not elect another John F. Kennedy or Lincoln!

    Thank you for inspiring me to begin a new thread.

    http://www.politicalforum.com/curre...fear-donald-might-turn-out-another-j-f-k.html
    Some powerful people fear The Donald might turn out to be another J.F.K!
    How desperate is America's elite to ensure that Americans do not elect another John F. Kennedy or Lincoln?

    There are a few people who actually benefit from recessions or even full fledged depressions. They see the influence of unions broken and they get to buy up smaller companies for a fraction of the value of their assets.

    Dave Hodges thinks that the measures to get rid of The Donald might well get pretty extreme.

    I think he exaggerates certain dangers but he certain made a good point with this statement:

    Yup.......... if legal immigration from Mexico were greatly increased......… a significant shift would begin to occur in America.

    Exactly!

    In my opinion......... if America's immigration policy is tailored toward taking in people who are highly likely to adapt well to the freedom of the USA.... then America benefits.

    For example, Yazidis, Christians, Ba'hai's and other minorities from the Middle East who would immediately love..... their freedom of religion in the USA..... would soon make great citizens..... but Muslims who want to put America under Sharia law........... would NOT make good citizens!

    Immigrants from Mexico who have connections with drug dealers....... do not make good citizens!

    Really? I guess cheap fruit and vegetables picked by migrant workers for 'wages' no American would get out of bed for, and the Mexican guy that cleans your pool or mows your lawn for peanuts isn't benefiting you?

    No it isn't. Importing cheap labor puts a downward pressure on labor value. This, along with outsourcing, is why we have a shrinking middle class.

    Exactly!

    People working for low wages........ back up and stabilize the value of the USA dollar at a relatively high level of real value.

    But.......... the growth in drug related crime puts a burden on the entire economy. If the crime level is high....... people will be less likely to go shopping....... and will have to spend serious bucks on crime protection technology rather than on what they would actually have wanted to purchase.

    Yes, groups that hate all immigrants will likely side with those who are against illegal immigrants. I don't get why this suddenly makes you racist if you don't like illegal child trafficking from South America.

    Exactly!

    Just because some messed up people agree with The Donald on one or two topics......
    does not mean that he is in agreement with them on the hairball subjects that they are into.

    The only way I'm likely voting for him is if the Dem super-delegates put that criminal Hillary up. I watched Bill Clinton pass NAFTA, and GATT, and I watched the rapid destruction of almost all manufacturing jobs in our country. Hillary has a ton of money to pass TPP and allow importing goods made by child labor from East Asia. No thank you.

    It seems that quite a few people who tend to vote Democrat
    are unwilling to vote for Hillary........ and will very likely flip their
    vote over to The Donald if Hillary is confirmed as the nominee.

    http://www.politicalforum.com/lates...-bernie-supporters-will-not-vote-hillary.html
    Is the Rabbi correct that one third of Bernie supporters will NOT vote for Hillary?
    Is Rabbi Shaul Marshall correct that one third of Bernie's supporters WILL NOT vote for Hillary Clinton on November 8?

    Mitt Romney lost the election back in 2012 by being too hard on Newt Gingrich so.......
    something along that line could perhaps be happening again.

    ROTFLMAO...So, send that brain fart to trump and tell him to run with it.
    It's about as asinine as everything else he complains about.

    Lol...That has to be the stupidest excuse for Romney's loss I have heard so far.
    Do you really believe that nonsense?

    Somebody on this forum gave statistics how
    long term G. O. P. supporters got so angry at Mitt
    over what he said about Newt..... that they did not
    help out in the door to door part of the last few months and weeks of the campaign......

    that factor can certainly gain or lose you several percentage points on election day......

    My next door neighbour is an active member of Canada's NDP and it is partly due to his
    efforts that I voted NDP twice at the provincial level.

    Prediction.......... a Donald Trump Presidency will probably lead to a MASSIVE INCREASE in LEGAL
    immigration from Mexico......and the rest of South and Central America!

    Yes.... when the most active ....long term members of a political party......
    will not hit the streets and visit their neighbours, family and friends to encourage them to vote........

    for their choice.......

    the election is nearly over........

    Watch.....Bernie may snatch the Democratic Party nomination from Hillary for somewhat similar reasons......

    Can Bernie support FLIP the DNC?

    Trump has attracted a great deal of support from Hispanic Americans, because, like most Americans, they do not support *illegal* immigration.

    My suspicion at this time is that Bernie supporters may flip this whole thing all around just before.....
    and during.... the DNC!

    So....... you could well yet have your wish and have to choose between Bernie and The Donald on November 8.

    I get the impression that you would vote for Bernie wouldn't you?

    My wife is from Ecuador... her first language is Spanish.....

    she has been hit with a huge amount of anti-Trump rhetoric from her online friends all over South America......

    The Donald had to get through the nomination process......

    before he would have the freedom to make statements on the other side of this issue..... that would cause this
    general opinion to shift ... in a big way......
