I'm putting the over/under at 8 months. This would provide the time desired for the DNC overlords to make the election look legit to the party lemmings. It also allows key conferences such as G8 to be put off within reason so as not to expose Biden's health problems.

I guess that it is possible to post while one is fully asleep.

You mean a slap on the wrist and released on their own recognizance?

George will take his Clinton puppet strings with him to the grave.

Kind of a bittersweet story with Taft. He ran for President at the urging of his friends including TR. Taft was hurt that TR was critical of him by 1912 and ran against him. Taft's ultimate dream was to be on the Supreme Court and made no secret to his friends that time was perhaps when he was the most happiest.

More than possible it is a characteristic of a rather large percentage of the population. Have you ever read Dilbert?

So much wrong with your statement. You missed the point which is not surprising in the least. People can be well spoken but still be incapable, unintelligent, etc..

She is not. Many people can memorize information and utilize it such as a lawyer but that does not make them smart. These same people often make bad decisions with respect to mates, friends, investments, criminal undertakings, etc.. For that matter there are a number of people who passed the bar in their state but are terrible lawyers. I had the misfortune to have to deal with one.

I say the following for those truly weighing a decision as to voting for Biden. You have to consider the possibility that Biden would not finish his term and quite possibly may exit during the first year of his Presidency. Kamala Harris will be the VP if the Democrats win in November. There is no other alternative for Democrats at this stage if they want to be loyal to their party. Kamala Harris is an empty pant-suit.

One of the very few ways FDR could have lost the Election of 1940 was to have the US involved in a war period. I doubt that even a conservative could have won on a pro-war platform. Most conservatives I knew growing up a couple of generations ago believed in minimal expenditures on the state and federal levels and having a full blown war flies in the face of that.

Q Baby at the alternative life style night club.

Americans during the late 1930's did not favor war in Europe nor the Pacific. Germany's actions by 1941 opened the door for the US to do Lend/Lease as a measure to counter Hitler. But that was not enough to get the US into direct war until war against the US was declared by Japan and its allies following Pearl Harbor. I don't know what else Roosevelt could have done other than the oil and raw material embargoes. I think Ford's action rates higher than an honorable mention given the brief time he served. I would have to check but I think he signed some accords for long range missile deployment that the groundwork was laid under Nixon. Also, the stage was set for stagflation as early as 1967 with the conflict between Israel and its neighbors with the culmination being the 1973 war and the resulting Arab Oil Embargo. Drought in Russia during the early 1970's compounded things with its need to import US wheat which impacted food prices. I think Carter deserves most of the blame on rising interest rates as it was thought that would combat inflation. The impact reached high in the US economy then as International Harvester which was a DOW top 30 stock was pushed into failure due to a heavy recession that started off the 1980's hitting key sales areas for it.

Crunk. From the Vulcan word Kronk which means to strike or have already struck. Kirk's signal word to assault the gangsters who were playing Fizbin from the episode "A Piece of the Action." In turn Norman Kronked the football away from the Raider's player.

I consider TR's Presidency big in terms of events. The Great White Fleet was extremely important especially if you believe in the Monroe Doctrine. He also understood the concept of world politics as the Panama Canal allowed for projection of the US Navy into Eastern Asia as most of it was stationed on the US East Coast. He received a Nobel Peace Prize for his negotiation that ended the war between Russia and Japan.

Not a FDR lover but I disagree with your assessment of him not taking the threat from Japan serious enough. The move of the Pacific Fleet from San Diego to Pearl Harbor was done at his direction. FDR was an assistant Secretary to the Navy during WWI so he had some insight as to world politics and the projection of military power. He also had regular contact with Joesph Grew who was US Ambassador to Japan so FDR most likely knew that a move westward by the US Navy to make Midway and Wake Island defendable would be taken as an act of aggression. Japan held the view that it had rightful claim to those islands. As to the rest of the thread. Theodore Roosevelt. Eisenhower. Lincoln. Ford. Let me explain. He moved the nation off of years of civil disorder by pushing Nixon to the side ASAP. No small deal given the strife we are seeing today. Reagan. Collapsed the threat from the Soviet Union and released Central and Eastern Europe from its grip. Just to show you I am not blindly partisan I do consider his deregulation of the credit card industry a very poor decision. As to Millard Fillmore. Came from Cayuga County, NY. A hotbed of nationally known names such as JD Rockefeller and William Seward (Alaska Purchase by the US) also came from there.

FIFY.

Whoa! Projecting your fantasies here for all to see?

First of all I don't do that and if I did I would not infringe on your territory.

You have reached the point of where you are totally oblivious to what is going on around you. Kind of like wondering around Walmart with the seat of your pants totally at your ankles.

I hope that you are not an analyst for some company because they sure would not get their money's worth out of you. In short while there are immigrant populations and minorities in Great Britain they are nothing in comparison to the US. In general GB is far more homogenous than the US. Great Britain never saw the huge wave of immigrants from all the other nations in Europe that the US saw. No equivalent to LA, Chicago, and SF in GB for tensions to build between various groups.

I lost hope for those two awhile ago and it will take a lot to bring hope back.

^^^^ thanks for giving us a glimpse of your school years.

Calling someone a "tard" is expressing their opinion on a topic? A phrase used by posters such as Tiberius, Q Baby, and no doubt others.

Mirror, meet thy reflection.

I'm still waiting on you.
