A question I've been asking myself over and over again..

What, if anything, makes Hillary Clinton a democrat, much less a liberal, in anyway?!
Cause I can't see it at all.

As unlikely as it is, would love it if Bernie would win the nomination...

Her positions mainly. Same as what makes Jeb Bush a Republican.
 
Apologies if I I'm super ignorant, but what positions exactly?

Check out her web page. I'm sure they are listed there. Then check out a random Republican candidate's positions on their site. There are some pretty stark differences on most issues ranging from health care, income disparity, gay rights, gun control, capital gains taxes, foreign interventionism, and a variety of other issues voters look at.
 
Fox's days are numbered imo. Murdoch is stepping down and his sons who are notoriously suspicious of Ailes will be in charge and probably boot him at some point, which will probably turn Fox into a somewhat normal news channel.

interesting. But there will be other media that cater to the loonies/Trump supporters currently.

btw I am surprised Trump has not waned....

It would be interesting if he does win a couple of primaries.
 
Suggesting Hillary isn't a proper Democrat is bizarre. She's been pushing universal healthcare for more than a couple of decades.

She was opposed to same sex marriages up until 2 years ago.. Only when the polls started to show more support for it.
She supports making flag desecration illegal?!
She supports faith based initiatives and thinks it is okay they receive federal funding.

She confuses the heck out of me. She talks about reigning in Wall Street, but have a look at who all are contributors to her campaign..

She might not be a communist manifesto thumping socialist but she's a pragmatic liberal. She was a NY Senator which explains her WS contributions. BTW, most employers match donations hence high donation numbers from big banks. Look at the PACs and Super PACs to see who really supports the candidates..

So was Obama, it was a contentious issue that people didn't want to jump the shark on. She's rainbowing it up with everyone now.
Not sure that makes her a non-Democrat.
Ditto.

Campaign finance is a big issue, she's already said that it's going to be one of the issues of her Presidency and I hope she gets held to that.
 
Wall Street owns every politician in US bar 1-2 exceptions. Even Obama did zilch to reign them in or make them accountable for 2008 crisis.
 
Love that Obama is going to Kenya. Lots of trolling opportunities. He should go to the birth certificate agency for a photo op.
 
Trump suuuuuurge!

He'll tumble much like Perot did in 92. A lot of people thought the race was Perot's to lose at the time and he went down like a Led Zeppelin. Trump is far more outspoken and will say a few more things that will put a dagger into any chance of success.
 
Poor Ted Cruz is having all of his energy sucked up by Trump. He must be desperate for Donald to feck up so he can get back in the running.

:lol: what has the GOP come to when this clown is front runner. You must be so excited.

On the contrary, he's been licking Donald's balls for weeks, refusing to criticize him, probably because he wants Trump to dump a massive sum of loyalty money on Cruz after Donald crashes out.

They're barely a political party any more and more so just a coalition of angry people who are pissed America isn't what it was when they were younger.
 
Do the Dems not have anyone apart from Bernie Sanders and Hilary? Ugh

They have Martin O'Malley, Lincoln Chafee and probably one or two others. Ironically, Sanders and Chafee are socialist and ex Republican, which makes it all the more bizarre they are running as Dems.
 
How is O'Malley polling?

He's barely alive.

2016 Democratic Presidential Nomination - ABC News/Wash Post Poll (July 20th)

Clinton 63, Sanders 14, Biden 12, Webb 2, O'Malley 1, Chafee 0

Clinton +49
 
Ben Carson's speech at the NRA was bizarre. 'We need guns to protect ourselves from Islamic radicals that could come through the south border'. 'America has been free for hundreds of years because men possessed guns'. And that kind of things.

He's an absolute nutcase. There are a few of them every four years in the GOP primaries.

No it's because he needs Trumps supporters. Why would he criticize Trump and aleinate them? That'd be stupid.
 
The GOP primary is going to be absolute comedy this year.
