A country that doesn't have fair and orderly elections can't be democratic.
The lack of real choice and alternative is embarrassing.

So someone calls one of the best men walking the planet a madman.
Odd.....guess she believes the media!

Actually the USA is not a democracy, despite all the rhetoric.
It is a republic.....
There is a difference.

And for voting, etal...it is a screwed up mess all across the board.
And the whole idea of delegates voting as they please and not as the voters voted?
That is a battle that should have been fought before any election, like years ago and continued until finally the voice of the people is heard.
Same with super delegates!
Bottom line is this, for both parties:
Old rich white guys with more money than sense run it all.

This I will agree with. I was totally disappointed in the choices of both sides.

It was like on day one, Hillary or nothing for the dems. And the Republican field was a total mess.

I do like that Trump is not a career politician. And I get that he is swinging punches now to win, and is not the monster those think he is.

Every single candidate is for a bigger, more powerful and more intrusive government. Except Cruz, and he's probably just lying about that anyway. Same disease around the world.

A big government is like a giant boulder tied to a boat, and pulling it under. Everybody believes the way to avoid going under is to throw someone overboard and to add more weight to the boulder. The guy who suggests cutting the boulder loose is the "crazy one." He goes overboard first.

I can not find the damn article....
but last week I read where Trump and Sanders would make a good team and go independent.

One thing that escapes a lot of people, in the media especially, is that Trump does not have to know how trains work, or why we have the EPA.
For like he said, I can freaking hire the best people in the country to help me run the country!

Britain's election system is NOT democratic either...

'An AFFRONT to democracy' - Ukip would have won 83 SEATS under a 'fair' voting system

SHOCKING figures show that UKIP would have had 83 SEATS if Britain had proportional representation in the 2015 elections.
In fact, the party – which is now the third biggest in British politics – will have just ONE representative in the House of Commons.

I'm just here for the riots. Last 2 Republican conventions were interrupted by hurricanes but since this is Ohio, maybe tornadoes.

Hahahaha... can this be true? Da Dogg endorsing Da Don

 

[GILSAN]

How a lot of people feel...

 

[johname]

No because there was this other rapper that endorsed Trump and within hours had to take it back because of all the backlash.

 

[JB Lions]

haha, no Snoop don't like Trump. It's still funny to me California made Conan the governor.

 

[johname]

It's still funny to me California made Conan the governor.

Funny but not surprising. Latino men liked his tough guy image and people were super tired of the govenor before Arnold.

Arnold would have ran for pressident if he was born in America like Cruz and Obama.



lol

 

[iowadawg]

How about that rapper that got invited to the white house, and they had all this talking about how they could help the black community and all, plus food, with obama.
And as obama is talking to him and all, the rapper's ankle bracelet goes off!

No, that is not a spot on media for sure!

OKay, found one link,,,,there are a few more.

Trump and Clinton as expected. Bernie supporters mad on Twitter. They'll have a meltdown this time next week with Hillary possibly going 5/5.

And then Cruz will get it next week as well, losing this one and then 5 next week. He's talking up how he won 5 in a row before today, but tables are about to turn.
