    Every year in prison is equal to five years on the outside ..... so ..... I's say that Manning is of age.

    You guys should be careful about wishing for the DNC to nominate a preposterous figure. After, all theres no more preposterous figure than Trump and he won. The mold is broken. Literally anyone can win now.

    There never has been a mold, just constitutional requirements that are very easy to meet.

    Probably a third, if not half, of Americans are qualified for the office of president.

    That's the goal. Chelsea is anarch-ish, so to speak. I want her to win and I want the radical left to become more prominent because of it.

    What you say was already exposed when Bush Baby Jr. cheated in Florida. The facade in Washington is as transparent as the one in Hollywood. But that is the problem itself: Americans think that Hollywood fantasy is reality so the phony American election process is accepted in the same way. Be forewarned ----------- it is only a matter of time before Mickey Mouse will run for president and will win! The president has no significant power. You don't yet know that?

    You're probably right.

    It's getting votes in the primaries and the general election that is the hard part.

    I qualify but no way was I born to get votes.

    Anyone who can be manipulated with the promise of getting big bucks for 4 to 8 years is a qualifier. The only disqualification is 'stage fright'.

    Ever since Johnson there have been only traitors in the White House, so I don't see what you are worried about.

    If you can deliver prosperity you will keep winning.

    If you can't deliver prosperity you have to be very charismatic and convincing to string the people along, or else lose.

    I was over at one of the military websites that is also covering the Manning running for the Senate.

    One person made an interesting comment.

    I agree partially. But 'prosperity' I have always considered to be something that benefits the population, not an elite few gazillionaires ... and let the rest of your countrymen survive by 'dog eat dog' tactics. Charisma is only an advantage for the crooks (those you serve), that is to say to placate the masses in order they don't conspire to murder you, leaving your employer thugs no one to front their scamming of your taxes. Politicians are nothing more than highly payed actors, and the new norm has little to do with talent - as Bush Baby Jr, Hillary Clinton, Maxine Waters, Sarah Palin, Joe Arpaio, Hank Johnson, clearly prove.

    ZERO chance to win.

    Candidacy is a complete joke.

    He she, ???????? I frankly would love to see the tests of the Y chromosome before declaring the person to be female.

    Can a convict win and take office? Certainly Democrats can. We republicans do not put up convicts to be anything.

    Do you normally take DNA for the purpose of finding gender? She is female as far as you are concerned. Unless you have some reason to say she is not a woman

    Does the removal of the penis create the woman?

    Women's DNA is different than a mans DNA is. You might like to verify by using google.

    That should send a few shivers up those who laugh at your pre election predictions. :)

    Do you have something going on with her? If not you really have no clue if she had a penis or not. So the only thing left is the gender construct. She presents as female so you should respect that or else people might start questioning your manhood.

    I grew up knowing what is man and what is woman. I must check with my adult daughter to see if she is in any fashion confused.

    I said nothing whatsoever that could cause the reply you left for me to read.

    She would already be smarter than a bunch of republican congressman. She would beat out Steve king, Ted Cruz, Louis ghomert, Tom cotton, trey goudy, ................oh wait she would be smarter than every republican congressman.

    What does your daughter have to do with any of this? Come back to the conversation. You have no reason to treat Chelsea like a woman except to be a jerk.

    I'm sure there is someone just as frightening to get them worked up. Oprah is a prime candidate, as we've seen.

    But me, I'd like to see us get away from considering extremists and celebrities for president, unless we're going to change our government and make that office less meaningful. I'm still in favor of seeing us move to something more parliamentary, so that the rich tapestry and spectrum of interests are much better represented anyway. That calls for more parties, which in turn calls for a move away from winner-take-all at the national level.
