If I was Hillary, I'd be a democrat. If I was a democrat who believed things from my republican president, I wouldn't be a very good democrat now, would I?

I'm just not a big fan of war mate. Am I allowed to use the hindsight of the meddling we did in the 50s (like overthrowing a democratically elected leader and implementing a dictator) and its divisive effects on the area? I'm also not really notorious for running with the pack so...

I get your point but in times of war the lines blur and there's actually solidarity. Remember all of the members of Congress singing God Bless America after 9/11?

Vietnam would have caused you to commit Seppuku. I almost did.

60 year hindsight doesn't count.

Really? Seriously? You've got to be kidding.

It would've been like 50 years at the time. The effects were well known at that point.

It seems strange how these noble, yet naive, people find this "voting" to actually affect change. Do they not understand that their two political parties prevent public opinion from influencing actual legislation?

In my notes, I liken this peculiar behavior to that of a long lost civilization sacrificing people in hopes of making the weather change. I assume this false hope allows them to continue to live with the poor living and working conditions within their society, functioning as a form of escapism — similar to religion.

I get this ideal but the fact of the matter is when you go to vote. There is more on the ballet than the presidential nominees depending on where you are from. People that spout this sentiment clearly show that they lack voting experience. State and local office seats have a greater effect on you than you realize.

You're assuming a lack of consent (and that anything actually happened where there was a lack of consent).

Yes while this is true, that's only like 25% of all media. 75% is for Hillary or claims to be in the middle but they really aren't they are pro-Hillary as well.

And if you can't agree that he's made racist statements you at least have to agree that it's lurking just beneath the surface of a lot of his comments. Like going out of your way to point out the black person at one of your rallies:

"Look at my African American over there!"

Yeah, I agree with you on this. I also hated how he went to AA communities and decided to take his tokens with him and have this conversations with supposed leaders of the community but he was avoiding the true leaders in those communities. The ones that were outside protesting. Those are the people that he needed to be talking to and having conversations with.

I'm not questioning Trump's racism, some of the stuff reporter from years ago has certainly made it evident he may be. I'm looking for things he has said since he's started running. Hillary supporters love to say all of the dirt on her is from years ago, but everything I hear people toss at Trump is the same deal. Why can't we just admit they're both pieces of **** and vote for somebody else?

Yeah, good thing I don't hold people's politics against them and I can still be friends with people that I disagree with politically but the thing that I hate worse than the PC police is the anti-PC, "freedom of speech", MRA type crowd. You are definitely coming off as one of those and they irk me so badly. You are the complete opposite spectrum as a SJW but you are just as bad as they are and just as annoy. I don't agree with everything that SJWs complain over but majority of the time they are right.
