This sort of liberal correctness explains why so many voters, Democrats included, are supporting Donald Trump.

I hate to tell you but while reading the article at no time was there even a hint of politics or candidates......unless of course you specifically tie the subject to Trump in which case you would be a lone entity.

The article does demonstrate what a few racist radicals in academia can generate.

Their arbitrary defiition or whiteness is an absolute joke.....racism defining the cause of racism by re-defining terms to focus on racism.

Total and absolute acamemic trash!! Fools attempting to re-define evolution of an issue. Very hilter-esque.

Trump is winning because the silent majority have finally found a spokesman with a loud enough voice to be heard. PC is a restriction that is demanded by the inferior, and emboldened by the silence of the majority. Regardless of what one thinks of Trump, he is speaking for a majority. Sometimes folks just get tired of being pushed around by the naive and stupid that believe that they know what is best for someone else.

Dear Guests:

Trump is succeeding because voters can't see that he is attitude only and has no plan. They believe he will go in and clean out the riff raft in Washington but he can't.

What ails political America is a lack of a moral imperative and the two extremes Trump and Sanders act as collectives for this lack which without it and a reduction in government is unobtainable.

I am not disagreeing with you. I just stated why he is winning. But, one thing is for sure, if the Republicans do not get together and rally behind ONE of the candidates, regardless of his flaws, we are going to lose to another, worst than the last eight years. Remember, what is riding on this election is the balance of the Supreme Court. Having a bad president, America can survive. But, can democracy survive a totally liberal court? The liberals today have been wanting to tear up the Constitution for a very long time. They are like Piranha fish smelling blood. Now is not the time to divide up because we might need to hold our noses and choose. If we don't get it together, America will become part of Europe.

Only Clinton succeeding him could be worse.

ANYBODY ELSE but her or Bernie would be a start for recovery.

I don't have any idea where you get your information (probably Huffington,if you read at all) but this recovery has been historically the slowest ever. Obama has not done anything to help it, rather than hinder it's economic healing.

Guest
01-25-2016, 06:15 AM
Hillary said she wants to bring back Dodd/Frank, one of the reasons for this economic failing. I think that should be enough for any intelligent person to see that she is wrong for the country. She's in big business' pocket all the while she is speaking dirt about it.

At least one. I just registered as a Republican last week so I can vote for Trump. I was a Democrat for almost 40 years.

Guest
01-25-2016, 08:53 AM
The Democrat party is so worried that Hillary is going to jail that they are considering a third party candidate, Bloombugger. Could that be why Hillary is falling so far recently? Of course, she is still insisting that it is all a Republican plot/conspiracy. Even though the investigators are Obama's crew. Looks like Hillary should have thought better than to back Obama, AFTER he beat her @ss in 2008. A nobody beat her and now, even with her humiliating and desperate need to brush the dust off of the old horse husband and her deficient daughter, she is still losing. I bet she will have to be institutionalized if she is not incarcerated after this.

Well Chi, in my opinion Hillary will easily be handed her hat and sent home. She has lost all hopes of credibility and should have faded away gracefully. But, her ego makes her think that she is too big to fail. Kind of like those banks that have gotten larger since Obama got elected. And Hillary wants to help the banks even more by pushing Dodd/Frank again.

Plan B is the much the same as plan A. Elect a Republican.

Guest

Be patient.
In 2007 it took all the way to June before she fell of her horse and was passed up by an unknown black, known racist, prdjudiced, partisan candidate (what does that say about the queen bee?).

And back then while a liability she was in much better shape acceptance wise than she is today.

So allow it a little more time while the party figures out how to ring in an electable democratic one.candidate. As of yet there is not

Dear Guest: The entire problem with this election cycle is that labels are of no use such as Establishment, conservative liberal socialist, etc what the heck does it all mean. All the candidates promise you the world and they can't deliver it because the system is broken. Every one of these candidates act as collectives for a group of voters who believe they can deliver but in my view they can't. Morally our system is bankrupt. Its why Hillary's criminal malfeasance is being overlooked. its why Obama has been able to act like a dictator. Its why Bernie looks so good to slackers who like free stuff. a Trump or Bloomberg would act in the same manner as Obama because like Obama their over inflated ego's are ideologically driven.

Voters are confusing a type A and leader to be the same but they are not . Leaders accomplish their goals working with others that means being civil. it means having a shared vision. It means being transparent. it means being moral and ethical in your dealings. It means being a unifier. it means being trusted. It means have the courage of your conviction. and most of all it means serving "we the people"

I am not convinced one candidate can meet this criteria but two come close. Like you I agree that leftist progressives have badly damaged this nation
so we better get it right this time.

Please tell us why under President Clinton we will continue this recovery? to lessen your load you do not have to quantify simply qualify if you so choose

What you need to worry about are the democrats who will pull the Trump lever in the voting booth.....no change in party required to do that.

There are just too many democrats that will not vote for an unethical, untrustworty, blood on her hands, self centered liar oretending that she is owed something because she is pretending to be a representative woman (:1rotfl:).

You're right, the socialist party is not worried about his changing parties. Hillary is too busy worrying about staying out of jail and the rest of the Dems are worried about the Socialist beating her, thus Bloombugger getting set to throw his hat into the fray.

Changing political parties does not make one a loser. Your comment was childish and just relegated your comment to the petulant category.

My God, you people are pretty removed from reality if you think any Democrats will vote for Trump. Just because you don't like Bernie or Hillary, in no way means that others feel the same way. Even if they are not crazy about the person who becomes the Democratic nominee, most if not all will still vote Democratic, because the alternative is just too scarey. Sorry to burst your bubble. What you need to be afraid of isn't Hillary or Bernie, its Bloomberg. If he runs, he will definitely siphon off more Republican votes than Democratic ones, which will kill the Republican changes.

So, you believe that Democrat voters are TOO smart to vote across party lines, but that Republicans might vote for a Democrat? Interesting but warped perspective on reality. Just because some Independents voted for Obama doesn't mean that the Republicans will vote for any of these Democrats, Hillary, the socialist and especially Bloomie. He is anti-gun and anti-sugar. He is part of the "nanny" state. Nope, what is going to happen is that the youth will not vote for Hillary, and neither will a large portion of smart Independents. I think that there are going to be a lot of surprised Democrats come election day. You can bring out anyone you wish, but Hillary will NOT be elected, period.

Once again the opposition is making up stories. your first line:

"...you people are pretty removed from reality if you think any Democrats will vote for Trump...." Pure BS and wishful, partisan when they don't know anything they just say anything.

What would you call the democrats some of us know who have openly stated they will not vote for Clinton or Sanders? Never mind you will only come back and try to over play the fact that is what these democrats are saying to us because that is what we want to hear....or some other cacca mammie BS story.

Don't know anything else to say, well try this. There are as many Republicans that say they will not vote for Trump as there are Democrats that say they will not vote for Hillary. If it is Hillary against Trump, this will be an election that you have to hold your nose and vote.

Try this one on for size, Hillary's running mate will be Elizabeth Warren to get the Sander's voters to vote for her. Hillary wins. She is convicted, and sentenced to jail, thereby being impeached. Now, Elizabeth Warren is your president. That would be a double wammie. First, the Republicans wouldn't bring Warren up for a vote for the head of the Consumer Financial Production Bureau under Dowd/Frank. Say good by, Scott Brown. It was nice knowing you. Say hello to Senator Elizabeth Warren. Then, the Republicans do everything to get rid of Hillary, and they succeed. Their prize for accomplishing their goal is Elizabeth Warren, who is right there with Sanders on the far left. Don't worry she is a woman, so she will give you a crying towel. That would be poetic justice times two.

Why would Warren tie herself to a loser? The stigma and stink of the Clinton corruption would taint her forever. Nope, I don't see it happening. Besides, most likely Obama would whisper in Warren's ear and she would run in the opposite direction of Chillary. If Warren was interested in moving into the White House, she would have run for the top spot. After all, it should be a pretty easy run for an "almost native American" .....:1rotfl::1rotfl:

Tomorrow the Iowa caucuses will take place and we'll have the first real picture of who is at the head of the pack. No more predicting by polling, just real live voters.

The weather is going to be a factor because a winter storm will impact the west side of Iowa in the late afternoon and get worse as the night goes on. That will probably keep many moderates at home because they don't have a candidate they can feel passionate about.

My guess is that the most polarized voters will come out and they'll vote for the polarizing candidates, Sanders and Trump. Hillary's going to have a bad night, The Donald's going to have a good one.

I agree. The stock market has grown by leaps and bounds over the last 7 years along with jobs. The problem is most people don't see the recovery because the top 1% has hogged it all. Trickle down economics is a fallacy. Wages are kept down and the middle class is being depleted.

And you attribute a stock market recover to the Democrats? That's pretty funny. Please give us some examples of what they did to contribute to it's recovery.

Your shade of green as in envy and jealousy is most becoming. Personally, I have no problem with those making one percent and paying my taxes for me.

Yes, the middle class is being depleted. You know why? Because the left's redistribution plans are for the lower class, the lazy and do not help the middle class at all. Small business is not hiring and some are closing up shop because of Obamacare. Wages are kept down so that small business can afford to pay all the extras that this administration requires.

Poverty level is at an all time high.
More people on food stamps in history
Higher health care cost since Obamacare
Lies about Obamacare such as providing more health care when it is just mandatory now and costing more. Even those that couldn't afford it but have to have it now, are paying thousands more in deductible. It won't help them at all.
More people quit the work force than ever before
More people quit looking for employment

This is the longest recession or depression recovery in history. Thanks to this administration.

So, blame it on Bush and blame it on the wealthy. That is the tact of a loser.

No, I believe it is YOU that have the short memory. The stock market tanked right after 9/11 but was back up again within a year. I know because my 401K dropped 50% and then totally recovered. Unemployment was so low that economists considered it FULL EMPLOYMENT. That was until the last two years where he had a Democrat controlled congress. Then it went up a bit, but not a whole lot. Maybe one or two points. SO yes, this administration has not done so well with the recovery, and I think that we owe the credit of any recovery solely to business, in spite of strict restrictions and taxing from this administration.

More people quit the work force than ever before
More people quit looking for employment

This is the longest recession or depression recovery in history. Thanks to this administration.

So, blame it on Bush and blame it on the wealthy. That is the tact of a loser.

This statement is total nonsense. Corporations have moved their production overseas. That is what is hurting the middle class the most, especially people without a college degree. Bulworth in 1998 said it more clearly.Bulworth Quotes | 35 quotes by | (http://www.great-quotes.com/quotes/movie/Bulworth)

Big business has been steadily moving overseas for many years. Yes, that is hurting all of us, not just the middle class. But, what I said is also true and more related to the present. And there are plenty of people making good money that have NO college. That is not the factor that is pertinent. Even though I can not stand Obama's ideology, policies or choices, I do not give him blame for our industry that moved overseas. There are many factors that occurred a long time before Obama. High union labor costs, high corporate taxes, etc. They have been in play longer than Obama has been president.

But, Obamacare and restrictions are causing small businesses to close up or not hire more employees. That's a fact.

Trump did not do as well as he thought. Rubio did better than anyone thought. And Rubio will do even better in NH.

It's about the jobs, Stupid.

Therefore it would be good for a change, to have a President who's actually had a job--a real job in private sector--and actually earned/produced revenue to make payroll!

It's also about the tax code. It should be totally abolished to wipe out all the loopholes.

Trump's tax plan makes sense and treats income earners with some respect for once:

Dear GOP voters:

This election cycle is so irrational that the only number I am going to watch are the number of delegates won by a candidate. The winner going into the GOP convention must have 1287 delegates.

I agree with just about everything, but the last sentence. The mandate that requires companies with more than 50 employees is not in affect yet. The number of companies with 50 or more employees that don't offer health insurance to their employees is very small. Percent of Private Sector Establishments That Offer Health Insurance to Employees, by Firm Size | The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation (http://kff.org/other/state-indicator/firms-offering-coverage-by-size/)

Some people that don't have a college education are doing well. However, most of these people are in the trades, or government employees. Factory workers are almost a thing of the past in the US. We are now a service country. Even now, good paying service jobs are moving overseas. You call the customer service for some of the large companies, and you can't understand a word the person on the other line is saying.

Although I respect Trump's plan and believe he is a good businessman, I am a firm believer that EVERYONE should have some skin in the game, and pay their share of taxes. We have way too many folks voting for politicians primarily on what is offered to them, rather than what is good for our country. And that is why all these young college students want to vote for Sanders. He is offering them something that is impossible for him to promise. Free college is impossible without everyone paying for it, for the rest of their lives. That means increased taxes in order to fund that freebie. He also wants to give everyone gov health care. Also at a major cost. But, let's go back to Trump's plan, which is much of what Bush W did too. It made the lower 47% totally free of responsibility by their not paying taxes. EVERYONE can pay taxes according to their ability. We have state sales taxes and no one complains about them. If we did away with income taxes and just charged sales taxes, everyone would contribute. The rich would actually pay more taxes than they are now. The seniors would only pay when they spent money. Their savings where they live off of the interest would be safe from taxation until they spent money.

But, I digress. Trumps plan is all well and good, but not feasible to pay off the year to year deficit, let alone pay down on the national debt.

I am not voting for him, not because of that reason but other reasons.

What we need after Obama is someone that understands the political system and how D.C. works and also be able to work with EVERYONE in the government, without kissing anyone's @ss. That's hard to find, but we do have some decent candidates.

Cruz is not even in my consideration. He is not only abrasive with his own party and not at all liked in congress, but he does not have the experience.

I will vote for any Republican that is nominated, but I will not vote to nominate Cruz or Trump.

I will not disrespect anyone that is planning to vote for one of the GOP candidates that are not my choice, but I will give my reasons while attempting not to disrespect the candidate.

On the other hand, I have no respect for the criminal in the other party or the socialist.

We have hundreds of college students today who refuse to honor their student loans with the excuse that they were promised good jobs and did not get them. Obama created this situation and his policies and the Fed desire to serve their president have created this long and weak recovery. Obama is always Obama and he is making every effort for these trillion in dollar loans to be forgiven.

So can you imagine if socialists Sander or Clinton become president what this nation is facing. Can you imagine what our government would be like with ego-manics like Trump or Cruz running it.

For the last 7 years I have ignored Obama's speeches. I feel the same way about Trump and Cruz. It is actually painful to listen to these three sing their own hyperbolic praises. I cringe when their voices first appear and quickly exit the room. The thought of their monopolizing television for eight years announcing how great a president they are is unbearable.

Voters better get a grip because this nation needs a serious, thoughtful, moral visionary and not bombastic baboons. The road to the abyss is near by.

The whole student loan issue is nothing more than a political sham to get votes. For Clinton during her yelling fest in Iowa to have one of her priorities to lift the burden of student loans off the backs of college graduates.
What is next. Do something about the car payments that they agreed to pay. Or maybe the size of their mortgage is more than their education could warrant therefore please Clinton take my burden away.

I was going to say anybody who buys into that BS needs to wake up, but changed my mind.....talking to Clinton supporters.

Does such a BS proposal include some recompense for those of us who did what we commited to do.....paid of our loans that allowed us to get the education that would have otherwise not been possible.

No....:censored:.....keep the burden on their backs where it belongs. They signed up for it. Now make them pay. This continuing :censored: selective enforcement of the laws is BS.

But what else would one expect from a multiple felon, liar....I forgot.
