    When you can't run with your "A" player, you use your "B" player to best results. That's the way it is.

    Politicians should be looked at as tools of the people. Right now the best tool we have is Clinton. We should work to give her her four year chance to prove herself and if she does well we work to give her another four years, if not we look elsewhere.

    I don't see any chance of progress being made with Trump.

    I agree, but I am still pissed you guys threw the best tool away first. And I guess a lot of progressive americans are too. I also acnkowledge (reluctantly :p) that not much good comes from staying pissed off and base important decisions on that.

    As long as your sins are ordained by the government, then they are not sins, right? Murder, especially.

    ^ murder in the name of the government is generally considered heroism.

    She is the less of two evils against Trump, though...and nobody is going to change their minds anyway, so there is no point trying to change anyone's mind on that.

    Sometimes the best way to change a system is from within. Especially if the people you (bern in this case) supposed to represent didn't vote en masse for you. Now the best option he has to improve the system on the short term (next 4 years) seems to try to impact the actions/strategy of the candidate your country's voters prefer. I agree that it's a long shot and it's all rather disappointing when America could have him in the position but it seems it is the most constructive way at this point. If you think otherwise what would you think is the most constructive way to go for him now?

    Fuck it I'd endorse a pig dressed in a pink tutu if I thought it had even the slimmest change of not letting Trump become President of the US.

    Wow, Asmo, are the politics in your country as interesting to you as they are in the USA? I wondered yesterday when I saw you said somewhere...and i cannot remember where..."We will get 8 years of Hillary".... or something like that.

    Anyway, I saw Bernie on an interview talking about his endorsement of Hillary....and I gather it is the only logical thing to do against the terminator trump...he spoke of many things. Trump thinks global warming is a hoax and does not want to do anything to make energy eco friendly....That is all I need to vote against Trump...........We will be in bigger trouble in many ways, if he gets into office.....

    People don't care , though.....

    People like Trump because he is easily influenced by less than positive ideas. They need a crony.

    sort of like how Hilda beast was caught spying red handed, then passing that state information on to unknown parties and the media still kisses her ass, in other words she commited espionage and did a shitty job of covering her tracks. Very trust worthy, the problem is people don't even care, Donald Trump might not be a saint, but atleast he's probably not a spy.

    Actually one of Donald Trump's biggest philosophical influences is a man who wrote things on the power of positive thinking, Norman Vincent Peale.

    Bernie said in his own words four weeks ago, that Hillary flat out cannot be trusted......that says volumes about Bernie and his principles.

    A lot of people who have been associated with Bill and Hillary in the past have either ended up in a prison cell or a pine box, they have long standing ties to cocaine traffickers too, they have since their days in the governor's mansion in Little Rock. There's too many bread crumbs forming a trail to ignore any of it. You can put lipstick on a pig and it will still be a swine.

    There is no choice besides the less of two evils, as far as I am concerned. You like Trump...that is your right....
