IDBillzFan Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Like Dan Aykroyd's character Ray Zalinksy in "Tommy Boy" said: "what the American public doesn't know is what makes them the American public." Frankly, lately, I feel like we're all in the movie "Bullworth." I keep waiting for Trump to tell black America that nothing in their life is going to improve until they put down malt liquor, drop the fried chicken and stop idolizing a football player who murdered two people.

B-Man Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hmmmmmmm Hillary Clinton just can’t win: Democrats need to accept that only Bernie Sanders can defeat the GOP Bernie Sanders will become our next president and it should come as no surprise to people actually paying attention http://www.salon.com/2016/02/19/hillary_clinton_just_cant_win_democrats_need_to_accept_that_only_bernie_sanders_can_defeat_the_gop/ In one major poll, Bernie Sanders is now leading Hillary Clinton nationally. In most others, he’s not far behind from the former Secretary of State. Vermont’s Senator already has an “edge over Clinton in matchups with GOP opponents,” dispelling Clinton’s electability myth. In an average of national polls, Bernie Sanders is less than eight points from Hillary Clinton, after being over 50 points behind in 2015. In addition, there’s only one person capable of challenging a Republican in 2016 without James Comey declaring national security was jeopardized by a private server. Bernie Sanders is the only Democratic candidate capable of winning the White House in 2016. Please name the last person to win the presidency alongside an ongoing FBI investigation, negative favorability ratings, questions about character linked to continual flip-flops, a dubious money trail of donors, and the genuine contempt of the rival political party. In reality, Clinton is a liability to Democrats, and certainly not the person capable of ensuring liberal Supreme Court nominees and President Obama’s legacy. The precious and all-knowing polls already show Bernie Sanders defeating Republicans in a general election and Robert Reich has already explained why Sanders can easily win the presidency. In a Huffington Post piece titled “6 Responses to Bernie Skeptic,” Reich debunks the trusted myth of Clinton supporters and Republicans: More at the link: .

3rdnlng Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Hillary Clinton’s National Lead Erodes With Honesty a Key Issue by Morgan Chalfont Original Article State releases hundreds of Clinton emails just before Nevada caucusby Sarah Westwood Original Article HBO under fire for anti-GOP Anita Hill docu-drama, timed to help Hillaryby Paul Bedard Original Article From your first link: “Well, I have to tell you, I have tried in every way I know how, literally from my years as a young lawyer all the way through my time as secretary of state, to level with the American people,” Clinton said when prompted by CBS anchor Scott Pelley, who cited former president Jimmy Carter’s 1976 promise that he would not lie to the American public. Really, she was leveling with the "American People" way back then? Try this on for size: Franklin Polk backed up major claims by Jerry Zeifman, the general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee who supervised Clinton’s work on the Watergate investigation in 1974, reported columnist Dan Calabrese in a column republished by WND. Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat, called Clinton a “liar” and “an unethical, dishonest lawyer.” He contends Clinton was collaborating with allies of the Kennedys to block revelation of Kennedy-administration activities that made Watergate “look like a day at the beach.” Her brief, Zeifman said, was so fraudulent and ridiculous, she would have been disbarred if she had submitted it to a judge. Polk confirmed Clinton wrote a brief arguing Nixon should not be granted legal counsel due to a lack of precedent. But Clinton deliberately ignored the then-recent case of Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, who was allowed to have a lawyer during the impeachment attempt against him in 1970. Moreover, Zeifman claims Clinton bolstered her fraudulent brief by removing all of the Douglas files from public access and storing them at her office, enabling her to argue as if the case never existed Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2008/04/60962/#zBZycObjuamoQvTQ.99 http://www.wnd.com/2008/04/60962/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I admit I'm having a hard time connecting the dots on this one. How so? Please explain. The basis of the country is representative democracy, with representation at the federal level via the states. "If only we elected our president by popular vote..." is contrary to that basis. Or, to put it another way: the president doesn't represent anyone. He's intended to be the executor of the states' will as expressed through Congress. People tend to think our government is designed on Athenian lines. It's not...it's actually based far more on Republican Rome than Democratic Athens. Which is actually a very good thing, if you know anything about who Athenian democracy actually worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Anyone surprised ?? Media: Hey, We Can Pretty Much Hand Hillary the Nomination Now, Right? by Jim Gerharty We’ve had three Democratic contests in their presidential primary, and so far we’ve been allowed to see the vote totals in one of them. Heck of a party you’ve got there, my friends. Yet Hillary Clinton’s five-point win in the Nevada caucus – where the vote totals are handled more securely and with more secrecy than classified information on Hillary’s server –was treated as a decisive turning point in a lot of corners of the media this weekend: The Slate Headline: After a Much-Needed Nevada Win, Things Are Looking Way Up for Hillary Clinton The Daily Beast: “With South Carolina and Super Tuesday looming ahead, Bernie Sanders’ campaign is fast approaching an expiration date.” USA Today: Hillary Clinton’s victory in Nevada halts the momentum of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who trounced her earlier this month in New Hampshire, and the win may begin a streak as the battle heads to a series of Southern-voting states that favor her. . Errol Louis, writing at CNN: Bernie Sanders and his followers have every right to feel energized by his second-place finish in Nevada: Only a few weeks ago, Sanders was more than 20 points behind Clinton, and yet he managed to build momentum, swiftly close the gap and nearly overtake her. But things didn’t break his way, for reasons that could prove to be fatal to his presidential hopes: Economically hard-pressed voters in Nevada chose Clinton’s experience and electability over the soaring hopes and class-warfare rhetoric of Sanders. Do you get the feeling some folks want to declare the Democratic primary over? Bernie Sanders won 47 percent on Saturday. I haven’t seen the figure “47 percent” get this much bad press since Mitt Romney’s comments to donors. Think about it, we’ve had one razor-thin Hillary win (Iowa), one Sanders landslide (New Hampshire), and one reasonably solid Hillary win (Nevada). Take a guess at what the delegate split is… (Play “Jeopardy” theme here.)

B-Man Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 ROLL CALL: More Ready for Kwan Than Clinton. Hillary Clinton won the Nevada caucuses on Saturday, but she still has a gaping weakness with the young voters that helped delivered the White House to President Barack Obama and the Democrats in 2008. If your presidential campaign had just lost the youth vote by 70 percent to a wild-haired, 74-year-old socialist in two states, you would deploy Michelle Kwan to do something about it too. Kwan is an accomplished (five-time World Figure Skating Champion), brilliant (Stanford grad), politically astute (she worked as an envoy in the Obama State Department and married the grandson of a senator) daughter of immigrants (the New American Majority!). More important than any of that, she is beloved by young women who once adorned their bedroom walls with posters of Kwan and are now old enough to vote for Hillary Clinton. But at one of four college events that Kwan headlined for Clinton last week in South Carolina ahead of Saturday’s primary, even Kwan couldn’t get the 30-or-so people who came Ready for Hillary. And it’s not because she didn’t try. It’s a tough sell. Hillary is boring, old, and kind of mean. Also extraordinarily corrupt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 1 in 5 Americans say Hillary Clinton is “dishonest” or a “liar.” Here’s why that’s a big problem. by Chris Cilizza https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/02/24/hillary-clintons-trust-problem-continues-to-dog-her/ On Tuesday, a federal judge ruled that several top aides to Hillary Clinton during her time at the State Department were required to testify under oath about whether exclusively using a private email server while serving as secretary of state amounted to a deliberate attempt to shield information from the public. This is the latest in a series of developments regarding Clinton’s email server — and her decision to exclusively use it during her time as the nation’s top diplomat. (Clinton is the first and only secretary of state to only use a private server for her correspondence.) Almost weekly now, there is some news in one of the three ongoing investigations — two at State, one by the FBI — into Clinton. And the drip, drip, drip effect of these now-regular revelations continues to have a major impact on how Clinton is viewed by the voting public. Gallup released a fascinating bit of data Tuesday that speaks to Clinton’s trust problem. They asked people to offer up the first word or phrase that came to mind when the name “Hillary Clinton” was mentioned. Here’s what the results of that open-ended question looked like: One in five people — unprompted by the poll taker — offered up some version of Clinton as “dishonest” or a “liar.” That's somewhat remarkable given that these open-ended questions typically produce a gigantic muddle of something like 25 words or phrases — all of which garner somewhere between 5 and 8 percent support. more at the link: .

It’s about what you’d expect with her usual spin on “common sense gun measures,” but check out what she says at the 2:12 mark: “We’ve got to say to the gun lobby, you know what, there is a constitutional right for people to own guns. But there’s also a constitutional right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that enables us to have a safe country. where we are able to protect our children and others from this senseless gun violence.” Nice speech Hillary, but “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” is — of course — in the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution.

But that is Hillary Clinton’s latest defense for making closed-door, richly-paid speeches to big banks, which many middle-class Americans still blame for their economic pain, and then refusing to release the transcripts. Public interest in these speeches is legitimate, and it is the public — not the candidate — who decides how much disclosure is enough. By stonewalling on these transcripts Mrs. Clinton plays into the hands of those who say she’s not trustworthy and makes her own rules. Most important, she is damaging her credibility among Democrats who are begging her to show them that she’d run an accountable and transparent White House Edited February 25, 2016 by meazza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
