Your Candidate is NOT Better (or Worse) w/Spoiler

Okay people we get it you can find bad stuff about any candidate you want to because they all SUCK this election. Trump is bad...I can prove it in a thread if I want. Hilary is bad and I can prove that in a thread if I want as well. Are either of them worse or better than the other? Are you actually trying to justify which pile of crap smells better? All the candidates SUCK.

When you write a thread about one of them being bad or one of them being good I have to question your intelligence. Pointing out the holes in the sieve is a useless exercise. WE GET IT...they are terrible candidates...ALL OF THEM.

We don't need 10 threads about how Hilary is bad or 5 threads on Trump being bad or 8 threads on Bernie being good because you won't change the basic problem that ALL OF THEM ARE CRAP.

I get it...if I vote I will be voting for a poop statue this election. I know this...you know this...other members KNOW THIS. Your thread is not changing minds or helping people.

SPOILER ALERT: How to vote in 2016

Here is ultimately how I am going to vote...REGARDLESS OF WHAT ELSE I BELIEVE I am going to vote for someone that will NOT screw up my three most important issues and will do the LEAST damage. For me I am voting for...

1) Someone who is a rabid supporter of the 2nd Amendment...NO COMPROMISE.

2) Someone who will stop using OUR Government to kill people.

3) Someone who believes in GOD.

These three things are important TO ME. You may not give a crap about them. That's fine. Find your three things, hold your nose and VOTE. You know you are voting for a crap sandwich at this point just pick what is important to you and DO IT.

# # #

We don't need more threads. We don't need more hit pieces. We don't need more 'my guy is better' threads. You all look stupid posting them. We get it the candidates are NOT GOOD.

So, find what is important to YOU and vote.

P.S. Don't argue my three things with me as I will NOT engage on them. I believe in a lot of things and these are what is important TO ME. I don't care if you don't like it and I don't care what your three things are I just recommend you vote what matters to you to the best of your ability because frankly I am not even sure it matters.

Good luck. We ALL need it.

That's none of them then.

Edit: I don't think any of them meet criteria for number 3...

But any of them that proclaim to will definitely be partaking in number 2, Bank It.


The Holy War has begun, they just haven't told the peons.


Brace yourself people, the next five years will be genocidal from all factions.

ISIS, NATO, Russia, Rebels, Militia, Freedom Fighters, Extremists will all be going up a gear.


I'm not derailing, far from it...
The next President of the United States pretty much guarantees it.

Like I said to another poster, we're just slaves arguing who would make a better master.

My solutions to a smaller government have never included voting for someone to make that happen because there is no one who will actually do it. My solutions have all centered around relying less on government and relying more on ourselves.

As for the 2nd? Governments come and go. Politicians come and go.

My guns are staying.

Don't care who is saying what or who is in charge.

a reply to: Metallicus

Lol 1 and 3 are so stupid reasons to vote that i wonder how you even manage to write the crap you come up with.
if any significant number of americans share your reasons to vote you truly are a effed up nation and deserve whatever #ty president you come up with. just too bad it has effect on the rest of the world because your humongous militairy budget requires you to be at war for you to have any kind of economy.

a reply to: CharlieSpeirs

You're right.

I still haven't picked my pile of crap yet...just the parameters.

a reply to: Metallicus

Personally I'd go with Trump.

I don't think he fits those criteria you suggested at all, not on 1, 2 or 3...


But I will say this...

He won't slow kill us like the rest of these Council of Foreign Relations plantation owners...

He'll kill us all quickly.



Edit: Either that or he'll actually turn out to be the greatest Pres ever inaugurated.

I don't think there is a shade of grey with the mad man.

a reply to: Metallicus

That's the beauty of politics, not everyone agrees and I disagree with you, not all of them are crap. One of them stands out as not crap but people such as yourself think he's the Devil because he's a socialist. That said, welcome to the election season where people are going to talk all about the candidates. It happens everywhere on the net and if you don't wanna read a thread about them then simply ignore the thread. We all ignore many threads here on ATS daily.

So until the election is over you're gonna see many threads about all of them, but mostly Trump, Clinton, and Sanders. Hell, Trump wants you to talk about him and he does everything he can to stay relevant in the news. Clinton has multiple on going federal investigations so don't expect that to go away, especially with two members in particular who love to post about her. And Sanders, well, he gets some attention on here but no where near the amount the former two have. The rest of the Republicans get as much time on ATS as Sanders does in the MSM.

Really, you'd vote Trump? The same man who wants to ban you from America till we get terrorism sorted out? According to our track record with the war on terror that means you'll never be allowed in the USA and not just you but your children's children children children.

Between Trump and Sanders you'd vote Trump?

Ugh...

Ironically, yes.

And partly because of that ban.


If he was blanket banning Muslims for guff reasons or legislating the legalisation of Islam, I'd feel differently.

But I don't like ISIS, and I do like America, so I know which side my bread is buttered, so to speak.

Don't get me wrong, I dislike a lot of what Trump says...

I think he is reckless in rhetoric...

Mocking the disabled, women, Mexicans, I thought were disgusting.



But we've been on slow kill for nearly 20 years.

Time to put us out of our misery I reckon.

I'm still waiting and hoping for the day we get a "none of the above" option put on the ballet. But knowing my luck they'd put it at the top of the ballet not the bottom.

Why not ? Europe has started. And if it is good enough foe extreme left wing liberals , it should work for the US version

a reply to: Metallicus

Agreed. The trend of these kinds of threads needs to die.

I'm glad to see the amount of interest and open discussions, but a lot of it is repetitive parrot talk.
