Guy was a maniac. His email dump verifies that (imagine a candidate who actually releases all his emails as governor instead of sticking them on a private server and then deleting them). He responded to almost everyone.

You can disagree with his policy decisions (I certainly do with his stances on abortion and taxation, among other things), but he's hardworking and intelligent in a way that his brother wasn't.

He might be better at the job than the other 2, but the legacy is pretty tarnished at this point.
 
People use the analogy European's conquer of Native Americans for in favor of illegal immigration. Someone please punch me.

I have to admit, as much of a side show Trump is, he makes an awful lot of sense. The very bad gang people, "do you mind if I send them back to Mexico..." yes, please. People like Hillary view them as votes.

I love Trump. Media tries to destroy him and he immediately pushes back.

I have been impressed with his ability to use extreme positions to control the media attention plus his use of one on one interviews to express more thoughtful and in many cases maintream views.

He likes to be considered a nutty grandpa, but he's definitely not. I read "The Art of the Deal" back in high school, I still make mental references to it today.

Indeed! I think he's pulling a reverse romney, a slow slide to the middle while keeping up the red meat rhetoric.

I was especially impressed with his sunday TV appearances this week.
 
Hillary is lonely and has trouble expressing feelings claims shrink
With the stinginess in her early years, Hillary has no intrinsic talent for dressing well and never learned. She hasn't escaped the pants suits routine but she also doesn't believe it matters how she dresses anyway, the author surmises. She was 'the drab girl nobody gave a second look at until Bill Clinton came alone'.

Dr. Bond believes Hillary is lonely at the top and craves a female equal.

Oh, and she's a manipulative liar too.
She describes Clinton as 'a frank and outspoken person, rather than a truthful one. Like most politicians, she bends the truth for political reasons' – and she calls her a healthy narcissist as well ---interested in the welfare of the world and not just focused on herself.

People claim that he is a strong negotiator but not a politician, but isn't that what a President should be a strong negotiator.

Also market is crashing, where is that POS Obama at.
 
Hey, the establishment can be good. They just haven't been for a few decades now.
Anyway, there are some good comments to this stealth call to limit civil rights while bodies are still warm.
 
That's quite an impressive bunch of candidates lining up. What a waste of time and money.
Just spin the Wheel of Fortune and whoever wins is the next president.
Just use politically relevant questions. And no dancing, singing or playing an instrument allowed.
 
Presidential hopeful Lindsey Graham and some senate clowns are in town checking out a carbon capture plant.

In other news, the Province is all atwitter because Garth Brooks is here.

Sorry Lindsey you are not redneck enough
 
Biden has a lead on HRod. WTF has happened to this country? The democrat base must be delusional as fuck.

Because Biden is a kindly old man and he's been keeping his mouth out of the news recently. If he gets on the campaign trail, this will change.

I'm kind of hoping for a Trump v Biden general election.
:ahahahaha:

I want to see that republican black dude win the primary, the doctor.
 
Biden is a tool and a sleek. Has always been and will always be.

The irony exists that people from the left cry about career politicians and corruptions, and yet look at the ones they support.

General media pulling all stops to discredit Trump.

Fact. Just read this:
The best part about the Trump phenomenon is his immunity to media crucifixion. Over the course of the past fifteen years, we have all come to know, and perhaps fear, the way that the media enforces uniformity of opinion. There are only some things that you are allowed to say in public. Doubleplusbadthink will get you fired. If you are already a CEO and you make a $1,000 donation to a non-media-approved cause, you will be hounded out of a career. If you say something that the media doesn’t like, you’ll be kicked off television. That’s the soft tyranny of 2015. Speak out and you will be cut down. No, you won’t be criminally prosecuted, unless you live in Europe where you can go to jail for “racist revving”. But you’ll become an unperson. You’ll be eliminated from history. Your children will suffer. You’ll lose your house and your job and your savings and your life.

Trump is immune to that. He has money. Not ten billion dollars, but enough. So he can say whatever he wants. And it turns out that… people want to hear it. He says that Rosie O’Donnell is a fat pig and that Heidi Klum isn’t a “10” any more. These facts are both self-evident, yet the media said that he WHIPPED UP A FIRESTORM OF CONTROVERSY on the subjects. They said that he ATTACKED WOMEN. They told women that they should all be OUTRAGED on Rosie O’s behalf. And what’s happened? Women are flocking to him. Women don’t like being told that they have to assemble the Avengers on behalf of some repugnant comedian or the late-middle-aged Mrs. Seal. They’d prefer to make their own choices.

Trump says that Mexico should pay for a bigger wall and the establishment sits up in front of their televisions at home and says CONSUELA DID YOU HEAR THAT? THAT MAN IS A RACIST! OH AND WOULD YOU TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT THE TOILET UPSTAIRS? THERE’S A STAIN RIGHT WHERE LITTLE BRAYDEN DROPS HIS PRIVILEGED LITTLE POOPIES AFTER DAY SCHOOL. POR FAVOR. Meanwhile, the unemployed former factory worker or construction worker or farm laborer isn’t shocked at all, because he lives in the reality of a bottomless labor pool the existence of which only Donald Trump seems willing to admit.

Trump says that Obama is a massive coward who has sabotaged America’s image in the world and the public-policy analyst for the Washington Post is WOW JUST WOW but the three-tour veteran of Afghanistan, sitting in his trailer and counting out his medication before he leaves for his shift at Wal-Mart, knows in his bones that Trump is correct.

The press says that Trump is RACIST! Yet Trump is catching Hilary among non-white voters. Turns out that not all black and Hispanic people want to be told about racism by white talking heads on TV. Amazing!

The media is running out of bullets to shoot at the guy. They could talk about his lack of experience in public life, but Americans voted for Obama when he hadn’t done anything worth noting as a senator. They can attack his money, but the fact is that Hilary is far more vulnerable on that. They can say he’s a terrible person, but Americans watched “The Apprentice” because they loved Trump’s lack of kindness and decency. They imagine him treating America’s enemies the same way and they like that. They can say he went bankrupt — but we live in a world where nearly one million Americans a year file for bankruptcy. All of those people will like the idea that he went from bankruptcy to the Presidency, because they’d like to succeed as well.

The final anti-Trump defense the media has, their Death Star, is to portray him as a buffoon, an idiot, a dilettante, a hobbyist. But Americans have watched Trump on TV more than they’ve watched any Clinton ever born. They know him. They like him. And he’s saying things that nobody else will say about jobs and trade and fairness.

Yeah, looking back, Al Gore was probably the best candidate the Dems have produced in a while. But he's a career guy too, though I get the impression he was less of a slickster.
