    Either Ken or Pete would be an improvement over what we've got.

    Has Pete helped produce a booming national economy?

    The corporate media likes plucking someone from obscurity and then boosting him for the presidency. This gives the corporate media so much power.

    Collectively they'd elect a used condom if they thought it could beat Trump. Cast your mind back to 2007/2008 and consider first term U.S. Senator Barack Obama who at that time had pretty much ZERO national level experience and absolutely no management or leadership history. They elected him exclusively because he had a nice speaking voice and a chic skin tone.

    So yes; if any of them actually thought that Buttigieg could hold his own against Trump WITH most of the Mainstream Media working for Buttigieg -- like they did for Barack Obama -- then they'd take the Ken Doll plunge. But realistically a small town major is going to be too easy to rattle on the presidential campaign trail against Trump, even with the MSM trying to carry him on their backs.

    An economy that did not roar into life until after Trump gutted all of Obama's anti-business executive orders. For some reason our leftists always neglect mentioning that fact.

    No, but neither has Trump.

    I get so DAMNED sick of hearing this, Tell me SPECIFICALLY what has Trump done to produce this dangerously overvalued stock market and plethora of really CRAPPY jobs which are the ONLY real result of this "boom" we are going through? He has taken down environmental regulations which were scheduled to be phased out anyway AND removed necessary SAFETY rules which might have prevented these recent big explosions which killed several people and are I believe, still burning and keeping people out of their homes.

    Bui hey, who cares about them, they're just members of the middle class, doncha know the middle class are the biggest "takers' around? at least according to some Trump supporters on this board.

    K. I understand that we can't always get everything we want, but if the Democrats are going to run with a Gay candidate, couldn't they at least run one that is attractive?

    Is Mayor Pete making his run early or is it just a statistical aberration?

    No Mayor Pete is not.
    They have a way of being the choice of the week.
    Remember Michelle Bachman (R) was the choice of the week too.


    Furthermore: Where is Tulsi Gabbard?
    [​IMG]

    Amazingly Tusli Gabbard is not included in this biased
    Newspaper's poll.



    The New York Times use to be a respectable newspaper
    with real journalistic standards.
    Does one Newspaper qualify today as quality journalism?

    And YOU still believe it.



    I am available for bets that
    per capita​
    NYC or even the whole State of New York
    bleeds less than the Great Red Middle for endless deployments.
    It isn't just true traumatic injury and recovery but, disrupted lives
    leading to suicides, drug abuse, alcoholism, divorces, etc.

    Shame Shame @Sallyally :no:
    Believing and broadcasting the "owned" media




    DEAR :flagus:s
    She be Australian
    Forgive Her misunderstandings of FREEDOM.
    and @Bowerbird and @crank and @Sallyally too.

    Don't :flagcanada:ize Australia nor :flagus:

    Poor old Moi. Still in thrall to the freedom delusion.
    Let me know the day when you decide you don’t want to pay income tax
    or that you don’t want to pay your car registration.

    Hey Capt, Let's not forget Barbie or her little sisters Kellie and Stacy. Matter of fact, Barbie has a horse named Dancer, who is far better versed on national security issues and foreign policy.

    You can always tell who the GOP is getting most nervous about each week as the target of their talking points, their lies and their viciousness changes.

    But I don't support Donald Trump. I would never support an empty suit like him, so desperate to serve the corrupt & decadent establishment that continually betrays the American people. I'm a lot smarter than that.

    And from what I understand he has not been a very successful mayor of a minor city, so what exactly does he bring to the table?

    The Republicans who had taken over Congress starting with the House in 2010 and then the full Congress in 2015 did and Trump's policies have kept that going to numbers no one was even dreaming about. It's not much of an accomplishment riding a tepid recovery over 8 years when historically our best and strongest recoveries come after our deepest recessions. Hitting numbers like we are hitting now when we have historically low unemployment is amazing.
