    Or 2020.

    But Trump even I not willing this he can be nomination for next terms.

    Has Booker chanches after Trump or Pence going out contract 2024's.

    I want either Cruz because he are best conservative republican 2016's.

    Best conservative social issues and liberal re thinks but does unlikely don't care about liberal. I called Social issue stronger in the United States by conservatives. Social are different wannabee than liberals(does wanted Communism era since Bush and Bill from decennium 1986 to the 1996). Dislike these I because Communism are in Belarus last 40 back. We are bigger and richer than Belarus last 1980 y.s.kr. just are Jesus Christ in Catholic trust last words.

    The more that I think about this......
    the more that I want to see the Democrats grab AboveAlpha.......

    His answers right across the board on all topics are nothing short of astonishing......

    For example:

    http://www.politicalforum.com/showthread.php?t=479468&page=48&p=1067122754#post1067122754

    Thread: The U.S. must abandon the Middle East

    In my opinion his comments on the F-35 and F-22 Raptor have the potential to set the stage for
    a genuine shot at relative peace on earth?!

    http://www.politicalforum.com/canad...rect-abt-f-35-being-best-our-air-force-3.html

    Thread: Could P. M. Stephen Harper be correct abt the F-35 being the best for our air force?

    I am a Christian.......
    and I honestly think that F-35's and F-22 Raptors could play a huge role in bringing the earth to a place of
    fifty percent or less violence......
    and fifty percent or more economic cooperation?!

    Take a look at the last post here to get an idea of what I mean......

    So is the entire East and West coast a bunch of heathens? This is a ridiculous statement. Abortion, by it's very definition, is a contentious issue. There are differing opinions of fetal rights and the beginning of life. There are differing opinions concerning health issues of the mother. There are differing opinions concerning rape.

    is also relevant......

    I like either Pete Buttigieg (South Bend Indiana Mayor) or Sally Boynton Brown (Democratic Chair Idaho). They both bring young new energy, and I think both have the ability to make Trump look like the fool that he is...

    Good instincts.

    I am watching CNN right now.

    Personally, I would vote for Mayor Pete.

    He seems like the perfect choice (at this point).

    He seem to be gaining momentum as a "3rd Way/Compromise" candidate to break the Perez/Ellison stalemate.

    This is your opinion. Others think that, in early days/weeks, it is a sperm and an egg, with no nervous system. I agree with you, but others do not. It's a contentious issue. If my wife was advised by her gyno not to give birth, for medical reasons, I would respect her decision, and weigh in, with our collective conscience. I would be relieved that she had a choice. If my daughter was raped, I would respect her decision, and I would NEVER question it, for as long as we both live. Contentious issue.

    OK, well maybe you should move to these areas to stop the "genocide".

    Yeah, I hope he doesn't win the Chair position, because he needs to be moved forward quicker, and I think that will tie him up...

    An interesting point.

    I would only favor Ellison if he was willing to resign from Congress and give the DNC job 100%.

    Still, it gives me a lot of hope for the future of the DNC that the leading candidates represent INCLUSIVENESS.

    Theoretically........ a North American church currency note of some type could be used to hire women, to become actresses playing the role of themselves...... if they are facing the choice of whether or not to abort their child......
    in reality films that could inspire at least some of those women to decide to carry their child to full term and give the child up for adoption.

    In other cases... the mom could decide to keep her baby.

    This would be an expansion of their range of choice.

    Large churches in democratic nations should print their own currencies.

    is a good example of how several dozen socially active residents of an area can begin what amounts to a second tier to the economy.

    The Ithaca Hour is an excellent example of a similar concept being applied in the United States.

    With no emerging leaders, no clear message, Democrats flounder.....



    In the aftermath of November’s election, Democrats are in the worst shape they’ve been in almost a century on the local, state, and federal level. The Democratic Party, which has lost over 900 seats total since the 2008 election, is dealing with an identity crisis. The party does not have a clear message nor does it have strong, emerging faces to represent it.

    One doesn’t have to look much farther than a map of county results of the last presidential election to understand why this has happened. Democratic voters have, in a sense, self-polarized over the last 25 years, setting up left-wing enclaves around major metropolitan cities. It shows. Except for the thin areas around the coasts, Democrats have abandoned nearly every municipality from medium cities all the way down.

    The GOP has its divisions, to be sure. However, they are relatively unified on the larger points. Democrats have been forced to call up the reserves, leaving has-beens such as Nancy Pelosi and not-quite-ready for primetime Chuck Schumer as the party faces. There's no credible leader to bridge the gap between the progressives and the left-leaning centrists.

    Making it worse is that the Democrats so mishandled and neglected elections outside of California that they have no farm team. The national Democrats are out of prospects. It's obvious. With few exceptions (Cory Booker and Julian Castro are the only two who come to mind), the leading Democrats have several things in common: they are white and old. How old? In the House, they are an average of 64 years old, over a decade more than Republicans.

    The rest of the Democratic bench are elderly scolds. Who doesn't want to listen to Elizabeth talk about the 1 percent, while ignoring her own wealth and resume lies? Joe Biden He should probably stick to aligning himself more to the Onion and meme parodies of himself (seriously, the BuzzFeedification of an incompetent vice president?)......snip~

    http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-bl...y-of-nancy-pelosi-with-no-emerging-leaders-no


    A fitting reward if I don't say so myself. Its like.....poetic justice.
