Definition:

An election is a formal decision-making process by which a population chooses an individual to hold public office. Elections have been the usual mechanism by which modern representative democracy has operated since the 17th century. Elections may fill offices in the legislature, sometimes in the executive and judiciary, and for regional and local government

Time to make America great again

Country: USA


i want to move away... were stuck between idiots... and people who want to build a freakn dumb wall. Can i just move somewhere else. I dont like any of my choices here..

I'm an american citizen, and I know how low my country has gotten. But there are good things here, just far and few between. However if one of these morons wins the election I'll be glad to move to a different country. I'd even help England take back the territory if it means I can live happily.

I don't believe a businessman as successful as Trump is actually as impulsive as he puts on, he's just making use of populist sentiment.

Didn't really want Trump or Clinton to win, but I think Trump would be more likely to lose in a general election than Cruz so I kind of want him to win the Republican nomination.

We should get someone from dollars to run for president.

>>14 good suggestion ill look into that/admin bump

>>11
is he as successful as he makes himself out to be though??
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnpO_RTSNmQ

and why would he want to make himself look impulsive? that's a terrible trait for a candidate

>>6

I can't even begin to understand politics in the Philippines, which is a shame.. from what I can see it's just a huge clusterfuck of corruption

I'd appreciate a crash course though...

Bump

>>17 well that's because Filipino's are dumbfuck who already knew that Politicians manipulate voting but they never do anything about it. They don't complain as a mass. I just hope we manage to pick the right president this election.

>>19

yeah.. and this is just my opinion on this, but I think that the hype around the "pinoy pride" in our perseverance and diligence is just a distraction from uniting and demanding change as a mass. It kind of sets it up so that by complaining, people will think you are being lazy instead of working hard to better your economic status- and of course that's bullshit...

but besides that, Idk.. it seems to me that the pilipino people are very detached from the government. Everyone is really busy working to make ends meet to sift through the shit pile that is current politics.

and question: are all the political debates conducted largely in English??

>>20 ugh.. the "Pinoy Pride".. I used to be like that until I realized how lame it was.. they seem to be only looking a the bright side.. not in the dark future our country holds. most filipino's seem to be allergic to negative things that they never talk about it.

and yes,, the mass is completely detached from the government.. its because they removed curriculums in High school and college about how government should work..

like "Maikling Kurso sa Lipunan at Rebolusyong Pilipino" or in english, "a short course on filipino society and revolution" which discusses live economics, and government laws like senatorial and house bills.

and "Araling aktibista" or "Ativist lesson"?? im not sure.

but since this country is ridiculously poor, nobody intelligent enough to make it to high school.

Parents decent and high paid jobs could make a children that holds a better future..

sorry of my idea is all over the place

and for you question.. No. they do it in Filipino language.. you have to wait until its available with subtitles..

Question: can Duterte fix all this mess?

>>22 ugh.. I have made a guideline on how to post.. you could've at least posted which country you are talking about so people from other countries wouldn't be confused..

Country: PHILIPPINES

So to answer your question.. No. i don't think so.. maybe mostly or at east one third of our economical, agricultural and infrastructural problems.. but not entirely.. if put your foot in their shoe .. you'll know that people will never be satisfied.. like never. XD

woah.. i didn't know about the removal of studies in the workings of the government.. that's awful!!

and I was asking if the debates are in english bc I saw a presidential debate but the candidates were speaking English... and I thought that was odd

but is it true that a brighter future for the individual involves moving abroad? in that case, the country would be left behind :(

those who graduate college can't find decent paying jobs so they emigrate... I mean, that's what my mom had to do, and I can't help but think of the people we left behind or the people she could have helped if she stayed...

sorry, i'm also all over the place

>>21 (you can stop humoring me anytime bc i can go on about this forever XD)

what I see as another reason behind the detachment of the pilipino people from "their" government is the fact that it was just adopted from Western style of government.. and it doesn't have the greatest fit in filipino's lives. They essentially have different values from the Americans who helped them establish democracy..

I guess what I mean by "the government doesn't have the greatest fit" is that pilipinos expect that the government won't help them out anyway so why bother getting involved... (I'll blame the years of subjugation by spain, japan, america etc... They've learned that governing institutions are there to control them, but not help them)...
(this is just a theory, correct me if i'm wrong!!)

.. and what I mean by different values is, at the time democracy was established in the philippines, filipinos weren't nearly as individualistic as americans. Social order is highly valued at the cost of disruption for the sake of social change..

/Sage .. bc I'm pretty sure I'm deviating from the topic of elections

Well, you've made yourself quite well known on the boards, hmm? Kurosuke... stop getting your panties in a bunch. I'm pretty sure every other post that is being put on Main without belonging there, is merely put their to entice you. They just want a reaction, and your feeding their hunger for that power over you. Tsk, tsk, when will you learn hun? They're only doing it for their power over you. Stop giving in, and they'll stop doing it.

>>27
LOLOLOL
"they'll stop doing it"
how long have you been here????????? XD

>>16 The brash face Trump puts on allows him to galvanize the young generation's cynicism & discontent, being outrageous gets him free air time where the other candidates spend tens of millions even before the election proper.

being impulsive is different from being brash or outrageous though...

I hate the guy, but I'll say this: at least an impulsive candidate is more transparent than other candidates who filter themselves too much..

Bump!

>>27 bump.

Shameless bump.

Bump

Australian election coming up July 2nd I think ewww

>>35 What happened?? Care to share whats going on in your country??

People are complaining about how bad all the presidential candidates in America are. And to this, I reply...

Yeah, you guys are totally right. They suck.
But hey, we're good as long as we have Congress. There are enough people in there that probability dictates that at least one of them isn't a complete buffoon. So that's something, right? Right..?

just to inform you.. there are three branches of government with equal powers over the nation.

Legislative - Makes Laws

Congress is composed of two parts: the Senate and the House of Representatives.

• Senate
  The Senate has 100 elected senators total; 2 senators per state. Each senator serves a 6 year term.



• House of Representatives
  The House has 435 voting representatives; the number of representatives from each state is based on the state's population. Each representative serves a 2 year term and may be re-elected.

Executive - Carries Out Laws

The executive branch is composed of the President, Vice President and Cabinet members.

• President
  The president is the head of state, head of the U.S. government and the commander-in-chief of the U.S. military.



• Vice President
  The vice president not only supports the president, but also acts as the presiding officer of the senate.



• Cabinet
  The Cabinet members are nominated by the president and must be approved by the Senate (with at least 51 votes). They serve as advisors and heads of various departments and agencies.

Judicial - Evaluates Laws

The judicial branch of government is made up of the court system.

• Supreme Court
  The Supreme Court is the highest court in the country. The 9 justices are nominated by the president and must be approved by the Senate (with at least 51 votes).



• Other Federal Courts
  There are lower Federal courts but they were not created by the Constitution. Congress deemed them necessary and established them using power granted from the Constitution.

BUT, Without the approval of EXECUTIVE, Laws made by Legislative will be in vain.

so yeah.. president plays a high role on government. He isn't called president for nothing.

but as a mass, people can do something about it. If and only if people unite.

bump because spam

Miriam should be the President.

>>43 Agreed.

Overqualified is much better than who who don't qualify at all.

senmirian will soon become presmiriam.

Though it is already vivid that senmiriam is overqualified,
The phil needs someone who is tactical, able to directly came up with solutions and would rather look for answers and action.
Because at this moment the phil. Needed someone who has the MIGHT and a person whom people will have themeselves be scared to commit crime because the policy will be more just and strict rather than how the phil. Have experience during times of other pres.

I mean as a filipino citizen. I want my county to have a fast improving gov. Than the ones before.

DUTERTE FOR PRESIDENT

HAVEN'S BLESSING I AM CURRENTLY AND STILL CONTINUALLY LIVED UNDER HIS REGIME AS MAYOR AT DAVAO CITY. AND GUESS WHAT. MY CITY USED TO HAVE LOT OF CRIMES THAT HAPPENED. WHEN HE WAS NOT YET THE MAYOR NOR VISE MAYOR. YOU COULD HEAR GUNSHOT SOMEWHERE AGDAO NOW THANKS TO HIM AND THE PEOPLE OF DAVAO WHO BECAME RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS, DAVAO CITY HAS ENTERED THE TOP 10'S MOST SAFETEST CITY TO LIVED IN THE WORLD AND THE FACILTIES ARE GREAT! ESP. OUR 911 .

@kurosuke i think it's not federal court it should be specail courts w/ is made by the law, that is the sandiganbayan and court of tax appeal

Special court rather because phil is not yet federal we are under a representative democractic unitary presidential separation of powers government.

Every President is a fucking corrupt adult. We have to kill them all.
We don't need them. We're just fucking puppets.

Country: Philippines
Candidate Involve: Duterte

I heard the INC are endorsing Mayor Duterte? I'm confident that he's gonna win!

Country: Phil
Miriam: Presidential Candidate

She knows what she is doing.

I agree with @nothing

Philippines

Suppose it's Duterte.

Philippines

Are you an actual Voter??
Who is your Presidential and vice presidential Pairs??
WHY??

<-actual voter
Phil: Duterte for president.

@Nothing, I agree with ur conclusion that most of our president is corrupt,
Corrupt, in my own understanding, is a person who stole money from the people he is serving, without the knowledge of the people.
according to google:showing a willingness to act dishonestly in return for money or personal gain.

but honestly saying I am corrupt too. in a way i do some stuff for personal gain, but have you ever thought of what kind of "personal gain" I'm referring to?
(tell me if u had under go or learned in ur sociology and philosophy class)

In my own opinion, all are corrupt, but i have this way of thinking that some corrupt people use the money for other good purposes.

and @nothing, before u say that
If u are under the government of the philippines, let me remind u, we are a democratic gov. hence, we have the power and privilege to change our gov.
without gov. do u think we really did manage to be in this standing?
or if u think we became puppets under our government. is it the governments fault?
have u ever thought not becoming a puppet under them? u do know u have the freedom?
(Phil Con (Philippine Constitution), read the whole book if u don't understand the functions of the philippine government)

Country: Philippines
Not an actual Voter but I'd like to tell every Dollar who reads this that
WHOEVER YOU VOTE PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT BE MAR ROXAS OR JOJO BINAY
They have been involved in cases and do promise but never keep.
Roxas shows a facade of fake caring or action of kindness.
Binay is a downright indecent man.
Please. Thank You.

Go roxas or binay....

>>56 So Blunt...

Grace Poe is an Amateur.. she might not take the pressure.

And the only option we got is Senator Miriam or Mayor Duterte..

either of them.. im good. I am an actual voter.. just in case.

Duriam ftw!

@DEMO It's our own faults that we became puppets. And no we don't have freedom Most of people think but why? They give us food money and jobs. Yes so they can gain more money. They wanted to make us believe that we are free so we can't see the truth of our enslavement. Yeah maybe you do some stuff for personal gain but if you don't hurt the others or you don't stole the others for your personal gain i don't think that you are corrupt.
And no im not under the goverment of philippines.
We all have the power to change our own gov.
I always wanted to break the goverment and let the people see the truth.

>>58 True Poe's experience in the senate is not enough for a position like being the president,MDS or du30 would be good for the people for their experience,roxas and binay has experience but they didn't prove themselves when they were assigned their positions so why would they promise to do what they were supposed to do when they have been elected as president

>>8 I actually think he's the best choice we've got. I was sad to see Carson and Paul go but after them he's my next choice. It only took me so long to get on the trump train because I didn't know about him and he seemed too radical to make any headway. When he started doing well I did my research and he really won me over. So build the wall I say and anyone who says we shouldn't well it just got ten feet higher

>>16 >Listening to Mr. Current Year.
Trump is about as successful as you could appear to be. He has hundreds of businesses owned and formerly operated by him that are wildly successful. I'd also rather have someone who is impulsive and speaks their mind than someone like say Rubio or Hillary or Cruz who are all fake with prepared answers

>>63 Trump 2016 100% mate, welcome aboard!

trump is going to ruin it

@Livebait Right everyone vote Trump he will save our world.

Now I'm no political man but I'm hoping that we don't get Hillary and Trump, at this point I'm just hoping for someone sane like Bernie to win.

Country: Philippines
Candidate Involve: Duterte

I am from Davao and I can attest over the years of Digongs Leadership, but personally, I would not have him run for Presidency, Why? because people are people, especially filipinos. I did not mean that in a degrading way, but look at history. No matter how good you are, people will still have something to say, will still be against someone if the things they want can't be achieve, even if now it's the minority, it will escalate in the end just like Aquino's Presidency.

I do not believe he will get rid of all the drugs and criminality in the whole of the Archipelago in just Six Months? He did that in Davao for a Score, how can he do that in the whole Philippines?, again, that is just my opinion, but don't get me wrong I am Pro Digong and will always be. I just wished that he could have just silently retired in Davao than his name be Branded BAD like what they are doing now.

>>68 right aleister i agree with u. mayor Digong experienced lots of harsh treatments from hypocrites , though it is that way. But at the same time i think he had felt the love of the people who knows him verywell (from Davao Also) and those who have trust in him. That probably why he wants to run for the benefit of those he thinks who hungers for justice or those for those people.
i want Digong to be a president of the phil. To let others experience his great way of being a leader.

-guys try to search on google or youtube top 10 most dangerous place and honestly i agree that the most dangerous place is a place where illegal drugs are dominant in the place.

And yeah i don't agree Digong can rid all the drugs in the span of 6 months. But at least he had a clear vision of what he plans and what he fights for.

Country: Philippines

I'm an actual voter & will vote for Mayor Duterte. I don't think Mayor Digong is a threat to our democracy.

>>68 >>69 >>70

Why do people think that Duterte will continue Martial Law?? Do they have basis for that??

>>71 Maybe because of his strong image? But after the TV commercial contrevercy, i don't think Mayor Duterte is the one we should fear.. :/

>>71 because of the influence of media. Some individuals based their "thoughts/ opinions" through what they perceived and see.
But i have lived in davao for 20years and those times he was the mayor i felt the just and assurance of security.

>>73 wow really? could you describe him??

I personally hate ABS-CBN for advertising "Paninira" against candidates.. that's just plain wrong. They even used kids. even the surveys are haywires.. ugh..

>>74 A desperate move from Sen. Trillanes & the Liberal party. Smh. -.-

>>75 SMH

Topic: VOTING REMINDERS

Repost this to other social media networks. if you have one.

ANO ANG DAPAT GAWIN KUNG HINDI TUGMA ANG RESIBO SA BALOTA?

1. Pag natanggap na ang balota, kopyahin ang BALLOT ID number na matatagpuan sa pinakataas at kanang bahagi ng balota. Isulat ang BALLOT ID number sa inyong kamay o sa isang maliit na piraso ng papel. Iwasang sulatan ang gilid ng balota.

2. Markahan ng maigi ang loob ng bilog na tugma sa ibobotong kandidato. Kapag kumpleto na ang balota, magtungo sa VCM scanner. Ipasok ang balota sa VCM scanner at maghintay hanggang lumabas ang resibo. Kung hindi tayo sigurado paano ipasok ang balota sa VCM scanner, magpatulong po tayo ngunit HUWAG hayaang iba ang gumawa nito para sa iyo. Ikaw mismo dapat ang magpasok ng balota sa scanner.

3. Kapag natanggap na ang resibo, umalis sa harapan ng scanner para magbigay daan sa ibang botante. Suriing mabuti ang resibo. Kung tugma ito sa balota mo, ihulog ang resibo sa nakaabang na kahon. Tandaan, hindi maaaring iuwi o ilabas ng presinto ang resibo.

PAANO KUNG HINDI TUGMA ANG RESIBO SA BALOTA MO?

Kung hindi ayon ang boto mo sa lumabas na resibo, maaring may blangko o ibang pangalan ang lumabas. Ito ang mga dapat gawin:

1. Isulat ang BALLOT ID number sa LIKOD ng resibo at pirmahan ito.

2. Lumapit sa BEI Chairman ng presinto. Sabihin ang reklamo.

3. Tungkulin ng BEI na gumawa ng report ukol sa iyong reklamo. Isusulat ang detalye ng iyong reklamo sa logbook. Siguraduhing tama ang report. Ibigay ang iyong resibo sa BEI para maisama sa logbook.

IMPORTANTE pong mai-REPORT ang mga REKLAMO at nakasaad ang BALLOT ID number sa likod ng resibo. Ito po ay magsisilbing katibayan ng reklamo. Sa ganitong paraan, mas madaling i-tugma ang iyong balota sa resibo upang wala ng magamit na katwiran ang COMELEC na hindi pansinin o i-dismiss ang ating mga REKLAMO.

Ang ating mga balota, nabasa man ng VCM scanner ng tama o hindi, ay maisasama sa bilangan ng boto sa presinto. Kaya dapat lamang na mai-REPORT ng tama ang anumang insidente lalo na kung hindi tugma ang balota sa lumabas na resibo.

HUWAG KALIMUTAN. Ang BALLOT ID number ay napakaimportante. Kopyahin po natin ito bago magtungo sa VCM scanner. Para pag may problema, ISULAT ang ballot ID sa resibo at pirmahan saka idulog ang reklamo sa BEI.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Dahil hindi lahat may Internet, gawin natin ito bilang ATING MISYON at ATING TUNGKULIN sa darating na eleksyon,

1. Maaga tayong pumunta sa mga presinto.
2. I-inform lahat ang naka linya sa presinto tungkol sa RESIBO. Pagsabihan natin sila kung ano ang mga dapat gawin kung hindi tugma ang balota sa resibo.

I-SHARE PO NATIN ANG IMPORMASYONG ITO SA MGA KAIBIGAN, KAMAG-ANAK AT IBA PANG KAKILALA. MAGING ALERTO PO TAYO AT MAPAGMASID. MAGTANONG PO TAYO KUNG MAY HINDI NAIINTINDIHAN UKOL SA POST NA ITO AT IBA PANG BAGAY UKOL SA ELEKSYON.

>>77 Continuation

WHAT TO DO IF YOUR RECEIPT DOES NOT MATCH YOUR BALLOT

1. Before accomplishing ballot, copy the Ballot ID number found at the upper right corner of the ballot on a piece of paper, or onto your palm.

2. Accomplish ballot by shading completely the oval of the candidates of your choice. Feed your ballot into the VCM scanner, and wait a few seconds for the VCM printer to finish printing your receipt. The BEI will help you cut the receipt from the VCM. Once you feed your ballot into the VCM, and you get your receipt, you cannot get your ballot back. Acceptance by the VCM is final.

3. Step away from the VCM so that the next voter can cast his vote, and walk towards the black box receptacle for the receipt. Read your receipt and if there is any error like a vote for candidate A on the ballot which is reported as a vote for candidate B on the receipt, or a vote for candidate A reported as undervote, or a vote for candidate A reported as overvote, then COPY your Ballot ID from your codigo (on your palm) onto the back of the receipt, sign the back of the receipt, and complain to the BEI, telling her of your objection, which the BEI is required to record in the minutes of the precinct.
With the Ballot ID on the receipt, Comelec can then match your receipt to the correct ballot, and check the validity of your complaint. If the Ballot ID is not written on your receipt, there is no way to match the receipt to the proper ballot, and so your complaint may be ignored by Comelec, or Comelec might charge you with various violations.

4. If your receipt matches your ballot exactly, deposit your receipt into the black box receptacle. you can not take your receipt with you out of the precinct -- this is an election offense.

5. Your votes, whether correctly or incorrectly read by the VCM, are included in the count for the precinct.

IN SHORT: TAKE NOTE OF YOUR "BALLOT ID" before ninyo i feed sa VCM machine. Para pag may problema sa resibo, ISULAT ang ballot ID sa resibo at pirmahan. Then inform the BEI.

PLEASE SHARE

Its Duterte.

(READ ALL OF IT BEFORE YOU CRITICIZE)
Well we'll all screwed if Hillary becomes president. Saying that our other choices are Donald and Bernie. And frankly as me and all my siblings don't have jobs, my mother got cut. And my entire family is practically broke not to mention most of America is in the same situation. I think a business man is just what we need. I mean I WANT to have a future thank you. I can't believe that sexist Hillary is running, SHE SHOULD BE IN JAIL! And don't say a women can't be sexist cause they can. And don't burn me I AM A WOMEN TOO SO I KNOW! Sometimes it feels like I'm the only real equalist in the world..

Lmao. Donald has filed for bankruptcy multiple times. If you think that America should lose everything and then try to start over than go ahead and keep thinking that FV1UKslb. But then again. None of you guys have any jobs and I have two, yet you blame the economy for your situation. So I wouldn't be surprised if you don't care about the rest of the human race and only care about your underachieving self.

As much as I hate to admit it, Trump might be the lesser of the evils what with sexist and criminal Hilary and socialist Bernie.

Trump is the only one who isn't being supported by a company, he's funding himself meaning he isnt a puppet for big corporate companies.

Like I said I really don't like saying it, but at this point it's what I come to believe.

>>85
Underachieving is the epitome of America.
It's not your economic system, it's your education system. And mental attitude.

I am so happy I'm not american.

@Kurosuke thank you for being active about the elections!
I'm quite certain now that the Dollars have helped in the winning of our beloved candidate Duterte!
Duterte has won! This man is gonna change the Philippines!
:D Let's go Dollars!!

WHO'S WITH ME? TRUMP FOR 2016!

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

DON'T BE CLOSED MINDED AND SAY JUST CAUSE HE IS REPUBLICAN HE'S
BAD.

REPUBLICANS ARE HUMAN TO.

I'M THIRD PARTY (the only truly open minded party) AND I LIKE TRUMP.

>>90 I'm not really into politics so I will only say this about Trump. If he becomes president I'm moving to Canada for the next 4 or 8 years.

Wow like you said you really DON'T know politics If you think Trump's bad. Cause if Hillary gets in we'll I'll be forced to move
to a place call HELL. If Hillary gets in it's literally
THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT.

There wont be a safe place on this planet.

America, America.
Admit it, you're fucked to the core and it doesn't really matter who becomes president.

>>94 As an American, I completely agree. At least with Hillary, we can prolong our lives a little longer.

Plz save America. we need it

>>85 Riddle me this then. What type of bankruptcy did Donald file for and what significance does that have on that companies finances.
MAGA

>>90 LET'S DO IT CENTIPEDE. GET YOUR HAT AND YOUR COAT.

I like how people who don't care for politics at least "know" that trump is bad... reminds me of gamergate all over again, can't underestimate the media lol

Wow I love how a lot of you people are just like "Lets solve the problems the DEMOCRATS started be putting another DEMOCRAT in! YAAAY~ We don't know AAANNYYYthing about politics, but that doesn't matter after all, the only thing that matters about our next president is HOW LOUD THEY TALK." Seriously people. GROW A SPINE Trumps insults are literally NOTHING to the way TEENAGERS in Texas treat their FRIENDS. If you can't take INSULTS how are you going to survive in this world? AND JUST because someone insults someone DOESN'T mean they're a bad person! OF COURSE YOU HAVE TO ATTACK PEOPLE IF YOU'RE RUNNING FOR ANYTHING. Telling people flaws in the other candidates IS HOW YOU DEBATE IF YOU CAN'T TAKE DEBATES THEN GET OUT OF AMERICA! America was founded so we could have the FREEDOM TO DEBATE!!!

>>100 Do you have to yell? You're making it awkward. There's a reason people don't like how Trump talks. I think there's a difference between Debating and just insulting.

de·bate
dəˈbāt/

noun: debate; plural noun: debates

1. a formal discussion on a particular topic in a public meeting or legislative assembly, in which opposing arguments are put forward.

synonyms: discussion, discourse, parley, dialogue;

-an argument about a particular subject, especially one in which many people are involved.

"the national debate on abortion"

verb: debate; 3rd person present: debates; past tense: debated; past participle: debated; gerund or present participle: debating

1. argue about (a subject), especially in a formal manner.

"the board debated his proposal"

synonyms: discuss, talk over/through, talk about, thrash out, hash out, argue, dispute;

-consider a possible course of action in one's mind before reaching a decision.

"he debated whether he should leave the matter alone or speak to her"

synonyms: consider, think over/about, chew over, mull over, ponder, revolve, deliberate, contemplate, muse, meditate; formal cogitate

"he debated whether to call her"



>>100 Does it, anywhere in this textbook definition, use words like insult, or attack?

>>102
Alas, the sad truth.
Most debates outside science and philosophy lead to insulting contests.
Don't even get me started on politics.
In a way, the way societies can't take insults is a defect.

I personally would wish either John Kasic or Benie sanders would win the GOP

Ted Cruz was a great candidate. He left to help preserve the republican party and give Trump more votes. No matter what Clinton is terrible. She was removed from her office position- Secretary of state- for incompetence. If she can not handle a lower position do we want her to lead our country? Trump isn´t great but he is the lesser of two evils.

cool

can somebody please just briefly explain to me what this website is? I read the about page and I am still very confused

Guys you have to see this if you're christian. I don't know how legit it is but.. If it is it's a total game changer in theses elections.

Amazing interview

Do you're own research on it! I'm just here to show you this.

>>100 I might not have read the chat right but I don't think anyone is saying that. People were criticizing both parties. So don't just trash on democrats, I mean really, you kinda sound like a little kid who isn't getting what he wants. This is why I hate politics.

politics is a taboo topic...focus on how you are going to make a difference before you rely on others.

For any of you people in the U.S. GO DONALD TRUMP!!!

>>117 Trump will be the absolute death of us. Though, considering all the shit America's done as of late, I suppose it was only a matter of time before we met our end.

FUCK DONALD TRUMP

Donald trump would totally be the end of us. We still have atomic missiles and bombs and such, why would anyone trust him with it. And aside from that he is the type of person to say something that would offend another country and then the US would get attacked.

Do any of you even know what Trump is going to do once he becomes president?

>>123 I don't. Enlighten me.

Justin Trudeau?

MAGA! Low energy people ignorant of the world claiming Daddy isn't the right fit! Don't worry. At the end of his 8 years we're gonna have a big and beautiful wall!
