Election 2016! (150)

1 Name: Slick Willy : 2013-08-06 05:09 ID:B/DYBD6q This thread was merged from the former /politics/ board. You can view the archive here.

Sure it's early, but that hasn't stopped the pundits from declaring Hillary the front runner. Also if you can predict the candidates correctly and post here you can then go back to your post and say "Told ya!" Of the republicans Chris Christie probably has the best chance of beating Hillary but can he make it through the primaries? Or will the GOP choose a hard right candidate and blame Romney and McCain for being too liberal?

If you don't want to talk about 2016 then we can also discuss the 2014 midterms that are coming up.

I'm not voting for any candidate that supports warantless wiretapping and other NSA shenanigans. So I'm probably voting Green in 2016. Look at these tie-dye hippies. Ugh. :(

Granted my single vote means absolutely nothing, let's go ahead and talk about reality. Democrats are probably going to have Biden and Hillary battling for first place. I'd prefer Biden if only because I really like Biden, personally. Hillary is a great politician, but she's so eager to toe the party line and speak highly of the NSA and every other bad decision our country has made lately that you might as well just go ahead and vote for Big Brother. Biden's equally guilty, but let's hope it's him just for the potential comedy that will accidentally flow out of his mouth at every press conference. It's unfortunate that the party hasn't bothered to cultivate anyone else at all.

The Republicans' best chance is Christie and I wouldn't be afraid for the future of our country should he get the nomination and win. However, he won't because the Republican party is ruled by a minority of lunatics. Thankfully it can't be Ted Cruz because HE'S A FILTHY CANADIAN. Will it be Rand Paul? That's a Democratic wet dream right there, so here's hoping. Another Bush? Are we really that stupid as a nation? Probably. Who else do they have?

While Biden would probably be a fine president I'm afraid he doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning. The polls have him even losing to Ted Cruz as I recall.

Hillary hasn't actually done anything. No leadership, no actual accomplishments of note, and as Benghazi shows, she's even bad at covering up her own incompetence.

She's got my vote!

She was a senator and secretary of state. How is that not leadership? Don't get me wrong, I don't really care for her all that much, but I still think she's qualified to hold the position. Besides all that, she was pretty much the unofficial vice president for eight years.

Well it looks like Chris Christie is throwing his hat in the ring. But can he get through the primary to take on Hillary? Or will the GOP go hard right and choose a tea party candidate?

What's the point of voting? I bet everyone who voted for Obama feels like an idiot because they believed there would be change. Obama's one chance to step up (NSA revelations) and he came out with some bullshit about "absolute privacy".

We deserve better than this. Every politician is full of shit.

Needless to say Mitch McConnell and some of his fellow republican senators were somewhat chagrined by Cruz' actions.

Wasn't Rand Paul the one who was griped at for wanting to cut foreign aid to Israel and then had to clarify that he would cut ALL foreign aid and Israel was just one of the countries who would be getting their aid cut and that is wasn't targeting them in particular?

19 Name: Citizen : 2015-05-12 17:27 ID:GlYYxDA0

>>18
Probably, that sounds like a Rand Paul thing to do.

man, I really hate the US's lust for Israel. ~500 politicians in congress and all of them are so desperate to prove they love Israel more, not because any of them give a shit, but because their constituents think god needs the jews in that area for his magic trick where he reappears.

And its super sad when its compelling people to try and fuck over a deal with Iran. Seriously, we get Iran to destroy all but their medical centrifuge, they can finally buy shit to get their unused nuclear power plant running, we can buy oil from them, and US businesses can sell them shit; which as a very westernized middle eastern country, their young people really want our goods.

prediction: Bernie Sanders will win in the Democratic primary, but Hillary will be the nominee by some bullshit. Donald Trump will be the Republican nominee, and everyone will complain about how both candidates are horrible. More than 90% of voters will still choose to vote for either of those two candidates.

21 Name: Slick Willy : 2015-08-05 01:46 ID:FUQpKDNJ

And now for the first news of the 2016 election!
Fox News announces 10 candidates for Thursday’s prime-time debate
http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/fox-news-announces-gop-candidates-participate-first-debate

making the cut:
Real estate mogul Donald Trump
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee
Neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson
Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas
Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida
Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie
Ohio Gov. John Kasich

and for those not invited:
Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry
Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal
Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina
Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina
Former New York Gov. George Pataki
Former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore

Bernie Sanders would be a fine candidate and I would gladly vote for him if he won the primary. Polls show he does better when given the choice of him or one of his republican opponents. But then I'm also fine with Hillary, as at this point I just want the Democrat who has the best odds of becoming president.

28 Name: Slick Willy : 2015-09-09 03:04 ID:Nrp3FoC7

And now Obama has 41 senators on his side, enough to filibuster any attempt from the Mitch to derail the Iran deal. Looks like we won't need Rand Paul's vote after all.

Of course, Constitutionally speaking, Obama needs sixty-seven (67) Senators to approve the treaty he and Kerry have just negotiated with Iran.

And yes, any international agreement with the signatures of heads of state is a "treaty." Obama can call it a "deal" and say that means he doesn't require Congressional approval. If a cat gives birth to a litter of kittens in an old oven, I can call them "biscuits." It doesn't make it so.

Not that it matters if the spineless, gutless pseudo-opposition in the Senate continue just rolling over for him and doing whatever he wants. Constitution? What Constitution? That moldy piece of paper that some dead white guys signed? Get hip to the times, boys and girls. The only thing that matters in the New Century is the Fuehrerprinzip.

On Tuesday, the most important race of the election cycle takes place: The Northern Mariana Islands Republican Caucuses. Up for grabs are nine whole delegates in a winner-take-all contest that's sure to decide once and for all who the Republican candidate will be in 2016. As the saying goes, in some alternate reality where Saipan is comprised of gold nuggets and sits atop the world's largest petroleum reserve: SO GOES THE NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS, SO GOES THE NATION!

There are no opinion polls, which is a shame because it would be a pretty easy poll to conduct. Around 53,000 people live on the islands, almost all of them on Saipan. Last time around, Mitt Romney won 87% of the 848 votes cast (and his son actually traveled to the island to campaign on his behalf!).

Interestingly, Donald Trump of all people (or at least his writer) bothered to mention them here:

http://www.mvariety.com/cnmi/cnmi-news/editorials/84414-feature-all-americans-in-one-america-remembering-the-territories-and-commonwealths

They also got some press from Carson's people, but he's out of the race and I closed that tab, so too bad.

76 Name: Tricky Dick : 2016-03-12 08:30 ID:B4jtCcpL

It might be worth mentioning that a media buy in the Northern Marianas is an extremely efficient use of campaign dollars. One Republican delegate in the CNMI represents 5,890+/- people (not necessarily Republicans, just population). In contrast, a California delegate represents 227,500 people. The two terrestrial television stations are simulcasts from Guam, but there are ten local radio stations and two daily newspapers. Satellite television dominates viewing hours, but likely primary voters tend to be radio listeners and newspaper readers. Just a thought if you're running for president four years from now!

The Unwashed Masses

I am so tired, tired spiritually and emotionally of it all. I know I am not the only one. Bernie and Trump are manifestations of the people's discontent with the system. I am so sick of being labeled. We label everything. We sit back and critique and criticize while we do.... nothing. Our country is dying. I can't even let my children watch american cartoons anymore, it is THAT bad.

the whole world sees us for what we are. They see our government for what it does and what it destroys. I think it has come to the point that even with choices that maybe aren't that great, so long as they are anti establishment we flock to them en mass.

We are the ones keeping this system going, so many of us are disillusioned groups do rash things like taking over nature reserves. Things here have degraded so badly that the people, the collective consciousness of America is starting to wake up and lash back. We have to fix this and the only way we can is to DO SOMETHING. we have to change our government before it devours us all. I love the term "unwashed masses".

It makes me chuckle. we unwashed masses keep your computers running. We grow the crops that feed your family. We build the things you use to make your everyday life that much more enjoyable yet we are racist, sexist, ignorant fools who don't matter until we begin washing over the system with waves of change. Then we are relevant because we are "so backwards" we will "make it worse".

It's already worse. Our course is unsustainable. I walk down the halls of my work everyday and see people of every race color and creed and i do not judge them. they do not judge me. we speak kindly we say "hello" "how are you today" "hey how's it goin!" yet if you watch any of the divisive junk on tv you would think we walk the halls glaring waiting for a turned back so we can beat the person because of their skin color, shoot them because we are rednecks. This is not how it is. WE the UNWASHED MASSES are not just the cogs in the machine, we ARE the machine. we make it work, we maintenance it, if care for it and for our troubles we have had an establishment destroy us, rob us, degrade us everyday in pop culture news and tv. destroy our foreign relationships, give away our nation to unaccountable corporations whom then pay lobbyists to pay off and bribe those supposedly representing us.

I think we could bounce straight into fascism. But if we do it is because we were handed the ultimate betrayal by a system that is already cannibalizing us. Not because we are the problem, because THEY are the problem.

It's Do-Or-Die-TUESDAY, the first time in a long time that the New York primary has been anything other than a victory lap.

Opinion polls (average by way of realclearpolitics.com)
Democrats: Clinton: 53.1%, Sanders: 41.4%
Republicans: Trump: 53.1%, Not Trump: 40.9%

Let's see if those numbers hold up!

101 Name: Tricky Dick : 2016-04-20 03:16 ID:B4jtCcpL

New York Primary Election: (90% reporting)

Democrats:
✔Clinton: 57.5% - 109
Sanders: 42.5% - 70

Republicans:
✔Trump: 60.2% - 79
Kasich: 25.1% - 2
Cruz: 14.7% - 0

Clinton is now safely within striking distance. Trump is getting closer to avoiding a contested convention. A good day for the front-runners!

Really? Let's take a look at the issues that really matter...

Drone strikes:
Sanders: supports
Clinton: supports
Trump: supports
Johnson: supports

Providing material support for terrorism (including the illegal occupation of Palestine):
Sanders: supports
Clinton: supports
Trump: supports
Johnson: supports

Killing the rich and redistributing their wealth:
Sanders: opposes
Clinton: opposes
Trump: opposes
Johnson: opposes

Killing all cops and soldiers:
Sanders: opposes
Clinton: opposes
Trump: opposes
Johnson: opposes

I'm not really seeing much difference here...

Picture a political party as a kingdom and factions as various fiefdoms. The Republican party is made up of evangelicals, constitutional originality advocates, free market enthusiasts, and many others. The Democratic party contains great society advocates, and social justice enthusiasts among many others. Each of these fiefdoms within our kingdoms are competing to get their agendas as a priority item on their party's platform.

I guess there's a very limited subset of factions that could find the Libertarian party attractive but I'd wager the number is quite small.

So we have to get very, very tough on cyber and cyber warfare. It is a, it is a huge problem. I have a son. He's 10 years old. He has computers. He is so good with these computers, it's unbelievable. The security aspect of cyber is very, very tough. And maybe it's hardly do-able. But I will say, we are not doing the job we should be doing, but that's true throughout our whole governmental society. We have so many things that we have to do better, Lester and certainly cyber is one of them.

Funny how most of his rape allegations on MSNBC reported to be false and were debunked. Especially the airplane one.

Also check Wikileaks for project veritas.

Trump is not a pedophile or a rapist, if you see on Wikileaks its an attempt by the DNC to slander Trump.

Until I hard evidence that Trump was a rapist, rather than people coming out 20 years later with no evidence, then I'll withdraw my vote.

Have fun electing a fucking criminal who is backed by Soros and other globalists for 2016.

If I were to link you to the video of a Trump supporter sucker punching a restrained protester, you would say that man does not represent all Trump supporters.

If I were to link you to the video of a Trump supporter shouting "fuck that nigger" at a Trump rally, you would say that man does not represent all Trump supporters.

If I were to link you to the video of the Trump supporter shouting "JEW. S. A." at a Trump rally, you would say that man doesn't represent all Trump supporters.

If I were to link you a video of someone being assaulted for holding up a sign that said "Fuck Whites", you would say the assailant was incited to violence.

Why won't you extend those same considerations to people with different views to your own?
