    Can anyone tell me if there ever was a POTUS before Trump who put his totally unqualified kids/Family into positions of power in the White House?

    Luckily our founding fathers are smarter than todays liberals and set up a system that was the best possible to represent people from all walks of life, not just big cities whose way of life is so completely different to the rest of the country.

    I am just basing my comments on what the democratic candidates are saying.

    Biden is doing just fine.

    Tulsi Gabbard is just fine.

    A Biden-Gabbard ticket would severely handle Trump-Pence

    Who should we believe? "FlamingLib" or The Poynter Institute,Vanity Fair and The New York Times?

    Hint: This is what is called an "admission against interest".

    "“Data journalism in particular, including websites like The Times’s Upshot and The Huffington Post’s Pollster, was under fire after guiding audiences — often through visually appealing speedometer-type graphics that forecast the probability of winning — to the conclusion that Mrs. Clinton would prevail in electoral votes. On Tuesday, the meters went haywire.” (The New York Times) Times Executive Editor Dean Baquet concedes error and initially points to professional claustrophobia and not getting out “on the road” enough."

    Skip the personal insults and focus carefully.

    "often through visually appealing speedometer-type graphics that forecast the probability of winning — to the conclusion that Mrs. Clinton would prevail in electoral votes."

    Marx knew a thing or two, but he underestimated the institutional durability of the bureaucracy - among other things.

    But there is no way out if you join the U.S. We had a civil war to settle that issue.

    Bad or not, employees should be able to quit en masse to get whatever it is they want.

    I don't see Biden choosing Gabbard. If not her, who?

    Thank you for admitting you are wrong. The polls were nation wide, and they were correct.

    Your counter-argument is not based on facts or numbers.

    Marx' advocacy of the labor theory of value shows he didn't have a clue.

    Hell no, employees should get what they agreed to work plus whatever else the employer chooses to give them.

    I would accept her.

    I would accept a Klobuchar and Tabbard ticket in a heart beat.

    Since there is no contract, both employer and employee are free to make demands. The other, of course, may not agree to meet those demands.

    Both are free to go further than required--the employee staying late, the employer handing out a bonus, and so on.

    The day will come, probably not in my lifetime, when a party will nominate two women.

    Marx and Lenin knew that the leviathan state was the great enemy of humanity.

    "'The eradication of state power' which as a 'parasitic excrescence'; it's 'amputation'; it's 'destruction'; 'state power is now becoming outmoded'; these are the expressions used by Marx about the state when appraising and analyzing the experience of the commune." All this was written a little less than half a century ago; and now it is like having to carry out excavations in order to bring a knowledge of undistorted Marxism to the broad masses." "The State and Revolution", VI Lenin, Penguin, 1992p, p. 49.

    He was right about the enemy his ideas about neutralizing the state were pure Utopian nonsense.

    I just asked a question that you have not answered.

    Want to answer it now?

    There wasn't much RELIABLE polling (in the last weekend) when the race was shifting dramatically in Trump's favor.

    Employees may quit so long as they are not required by contract to work.
    Of course, breaching a contract is always an option, but it involves liability for damages.
