Whatever you do do not vote this man for president.

I officially lost respect for him after what he did to Abby Martin. He voted for sanctions on Iran and flip-flopped his position on Middle Eastern intervention. He is far more religious than his father was. He is all about everything being private, not public, including prisons, which I believe with all my heart should not be a profit-driven system. I never hear him railing on the special treatment of corporations and the evils of lobbying. He claims the 'live and let live' philosophy yet favors a federal ban on abortion because his religious beliefs do not support it.

As much as I lean libertarian on (most) issues, it's absurd to assume that cutting funding for everything, and making all things private and not public is the solution to America's problems.

He's not that unique or visionary, and seemingly becomes a little slimier each year, using the same methods other politicians use like simplifying everything and talking the public like they have an IQ of negative four.

There will be no golden boy or girl in the race that actually represents the people's interests across the board. I probably won't vote again this time around. I know Elizabeth Warren isn't going to run because of bribery and intimidation by Hellery, but if she did I'd take her over RP any day, even though she by no means without many faults as well.

Who the hell would want to vote for any side, right or left, they all come from the same bull**** stock, period. You live in a fantasy world if you think your vote really matters, if you haven't figured it out yet, washington doesn't give a f*** about you. And after this TPP business essentially, a massive giveaway of government authority to multinational corporations. Who in their right mind would want to vote, I mean seriously. There is so much corruption & entities with a sense of entitlements in every level, in the sciences & healthcare and authority, its beyond comprehension. And yes lobbying and superpacs as they are called is legalized organized crime. You give them X amount of cash or do favors and they'll protect you and write / pass laws / bills just for your corporation or organization. If you believe conditions here in the states are going to get better, good luck with that way of thinking. Its going to take a generation or two to undo all that's been done so far, if it ever gets done.

What can you say? ...the man is right.

The deciders are grooming their own kids to replace themselves in order to become the new guard that will enjoy all the banksters and Lobbyists back door hand jobs and perks. And as forecasted by the older career sell out hacks on both sides, it will work, because when you divide the herds with domestic squabbles, you can continue business as usual not only locally, but Internationally.

It's sad how clueless the Liberals are, they are like a bunch of deranged idiots who would try to drown us all after a Ship sunk that we were all on, remember Titanic? There is absolutely nothing that we can do to even attempt to help wake them save their stupid selves. Meeting each other half way would be a start, unfortunately they are too mentally deranged to compromise with anyone whatsoever. ~$heopleNation

Let me just say, All while Joe Biden is laughing in the background, that only when they are sitting inside some Labor camp, would they beg for George W. Bush, or even their hero Obama, who would not leave his golf game any sooner than George would, rest assured of that.

The masters of puppets love this left vs right division, that was the intention from the very beginning, just like the robots who kneeled and bowed down to mass killers like Mao. Liberalism is a mental disorder, and they are the perfect herded sheople. Not that the other side is not frequently the same, but the left is so utterly brainwashed that its a much easier game to subjugate their stupid selves. ~$heopleNation

Let me finish my rant with, That they are easily swayed by tactics of so called Racism, income redistributism (word made up yes), anti-successfulism (another made up word), and the utter hate of anyone who is successful, which is the same people who they support like Hillary Clinton and Obama.

Then we still have brain dead and clueless Obama supporters that do not even know that Goldman Sachs elected Obama in 2008. These poor idiots may very well flock over to the new Socialist fraud Elizabeth Warren's camp, but they will quickly learn that the deciders do not want Warren because not only is she a mentally deranged Socialist just like Bernie Sanders, Hillary is backed by Goldman Sachs and that is who decides who gets elected by the DNC.

Poor stupid Liberals, they still don't get it even after their hero fraud Obama bailed out the banksters just like their arch enemy GWB did. = Useful idiots. Ok, Best wishes to all, and the typical useful liberal imbeciles as well. The worst of them all. ~$heopleNation

The problem is not drawing back. He wants to pull back from conflict even more then we have now.

Look at what the last few years of not having SOME kind of strong leadership on the world agenda has done.
1. ISSI
2. Rise of the "old" Soviet power grabs
3. China expanding in Asia
4. General unrest in the world


The world needs a strong leadership to guide them. The problem is that there are only a few countries that have the power to do this, and most of these we would not want laying the ground work for the future.

I agree completely with you on aid. Unless it is for direct natural disaster response, most of it needs to go. Once we stop handing it out like candy, then it COULD be used to sway other countries for support. But if the population of that country is hostile to us then NO support (other then disaster response.)

a reply to: dismanrc

I take your point on leadership trust me and we agree. I am not advocating abandoning NATO or any other treaty which would keep us involved in preventing or slowing Russian and Chinese expansionist policy. I am all for hunting down and killing threats like ISIL. I am not even for reducing the size and tech of our military. I just think we can pull back or end completely the proxy wars, cut our overseas bases almost in half and still be strong as hell by reallocating those resources at home. We completely agree on disaster relief.
