In seventeen months we get a chance to elect our nation’s 45th president and depose its first impostership.

I like there are so many out there competing to get their message out. Dismissing folks who aren’t considered “Heavyweights” ignores the ideas these folks have that inspired their supporters to give them enough money and effort to get them on the stage.

Time will winnow down the field so what’s the rush to throw away passionate segments of the Democratic coalition?

We don’t have to push them off the stage,just let them quietly drop out over the next few weeks and keep their followers engaged through the rest of the process.

Notice not many folks talking about Bernie... the Bros won’t like that. I expect them to go HAM on every woman in the race...

All the "debates" have shown is how disorganized the Democratic party is, and it has a lot of work to do in crafting a coherent message to the American people.

Not disorganized, it is inclusive. Why not spend a few months passing around the megaphone and spreading Democratic ideals for a wide variety of policies from border to border and sea to Sea?
Giving these candidates their space will make it easier for their supporters to move their energy to a smaller and smaller group of candidates.

Chance are these voters won’t become the “or Bust” Bernie bros or the idiots who literally pissed away their votes on Jill Stein.

Inclusive means indecisive in politics.

Ha ha ha! That’s a good one. Too bad it’s a stupid sentiment.

But if you can find one candidate saying "I'm for open borders", have at it. I'm all ears and eyes. As an aside, as far as I know only one candidate made a regular practice of hiring "illegals."
I’m sure you have the necessary skills to read news accounts of the debates.
Youneither clearly don't, or are tacitly admitting no one advocated for open borders by not pointing to a single.candidate who took that position, and posting your usual evasion to avoid admitting your chronic anal cranial inversion.

It was 20 years then. It's been 87 years now.

In his senior moment he must have forgotten about the gas chambers, the medical experiments, the confiscation of all personal property. Just children and adults being giving a roof over their heads and three square for one of the few times in their lives. People were not struggling to get into NAZI Germany.

The question I asked was which candidates have said "I'm for open borders?" If you have open borders you don't have " illegal immigrants". Did any of those candidates challenge the term? If you want to be like Bambu and argue that if you don't accept Trump's approach, you're for "open borders" be my guest. But you look like a fool (and a hack) for doing so.

WOO HOO! Sixty one today and I'm still here! There are several folks to whom I would like to say, "I told you so!" but those motherfuckers are already dead and I doubt I'll see them on the other side!

EXCELSIOR!

Luee probably thinks Truman tweeted that. It’s now part of his primitive belief matrix.
