Man my family all voted for Carson here in Alaska. Rofl

Alaska is a wonderful place where your vote doesn't mean shit one way or another for the presidency incidentally.

I didn't even participate because it's a 40 min drive each way and I have stuff to get done to make a living. So everyone can hate on me for that AND for the fact I would have voted for trump! hahaha

Not neccesarily politics related but I find it hilarious how Bernie Sanders fanboys on Reddit/internet are now so desperate. I wonder what will happen to Reddit after Bernie Sanders is out, will they keep up their Hilary smear campaign?. Maybe ill finally be able to read something useful on that page.

Either way, who do you guys think theyl pick for VP respectively?

Laughable.Noone has done more to divide America than Clinton and the democratic party.Stonewalling any objecting views by calling that person a racist, sexist, homophobe, bigot, transphobe or using terms like whitesplaining or mansplaining is the definition of creating division.
Considering what Trump has done to unite different factions, even conservatives supporting a non-conservative, it might be a great uniter against a great divider matchup. Trump will have to articulate policy, and it seems he has good advisors on that. He'll have to check some of the wild answers when he gets attacked in a debate setting. If he plays his cards right in broad politicking, I'll drink to the Hillary machine's prowess at defeating him because she'll deserve it.

Yea no. Both parties and their associated media have dished out plenty of hate and polarizing crap in their time. To suggest that one side has a monopoly on such shenanigans just shows how deep you are up the asshole of the side you support since you seem to be blinded by the remnants of their propaganda meals.

Not that the left is much better but come on now, republican talk for most of the years I have been paying attention has very similar goals to stonewalling. Sure they use different terms but its there plenty and ever since Obama has been in office it has been the Republican magnum opus of polarizing obstructionism.

I get that republicans are not blameless but when Clinton rolled out Madeline Albright on the campaign trail and she stated "There is a special place in hell for women who don't support other women" it's just so goddamn ridiculous for Clinton to then trot out some line about not dividing people.I'm just so over the identity politics bullshit and if Clinton gets in it's going to get even worse.

Out of genuine curiosity. How do you think Sanders course for the nomination is looking now? Better or worse then before Super Tuesday.

What would be way more interesting than these figures though, is to know if (most of) the 3M additional people who voted in the Republican primaries voted for or against Trump.

Trump will win the presidency. Depsite his antics and the false media representation of him, he is the most fit to lead than any of the nominees. He is a strong leader that wont be bullied unlike the other candidates.

Many people are naive in this thread and think that trump is just a republican phenomenon. Alot of democrats will vote for trump if he is the nominee.

My girlfriend and I are voting for him. We are an inter racial couple who are young and college educated with generally liberal views on many social issues. I dont understand the hate on trump over other republican nominees. Hes the only republican candiate with moderate views on planned parenthood, israel/palestine conflict and many other issues. Honestly, i think many of the social issues are irrelevant as trump doesn't really care about them. He only says certain things to be accepted within the republican party.

His true emphasis is on economy, trade, borders, health care, and foreign policy. We finally get a candidate that is not backed by the special interest groups, yet people want to vote for hillary? Please look at her donors..


Why is inter-racialness relevant? What races?


It's certainly relevant when people claim trump and trump supporters are all racists or white supremacists


How come you dodged Igne's question about what race you and your girlfriend are? (Considering how you make a point out of you two being interracial, it does make a difference, because white-asian is entirely irrelevant.)

Well.. Great is not the word i'd use when i see two potential presidents, people who get a button that can pretty much end the world, going at it like:

"I mean, look at your hair donald. Come on."

- "Oh guys, she's menstruating, look!"

"Yeah but at least i'm not orange."

While i agree it'd be funny between to candidates that don't have a shot at presidency, i start to wonder if people actually grasp the danger they're in when they say "it's funny to see trump arguing", considering that he might be the next president representing your country.

I'd be rather terrified, if a tool like him would be the representative of my country. It's fun to watch manboys like Rubio argue, since he pretty much is out of the race - but ask yourself what'd happen if trump wins. This line of "arguing", fourth grader articulation - i don't have the slightest idea how people think that he could go toe to toe with calibers like Putin, or Jinping. As in, they will shit all over trump, because his idea of "talks" ends as soon as he gets opposition, that's when he turns into a 8 year old, including pouting while nodding. Literally. An actual person can react in three ways to that. First: punch that pout out his orange face. Best option in my mind, but no one would. Second, join the kindergarden and argue on the same level - Putin etc already showed that they don't. Third, lift your eyebrows, turn around and use trumps missteps to get points in your own country. I know what's gonna happen.

Not that hillary would particularly good at it either, but trump will leave your country in ruins.

I sensed he was half serious, still interesting to talk about though. A politician here was asked a few weeks ago what he'd do if Trump became president, he replied he'd move to new Zealand or somewhere as that's one of the best places to avoid nuclear fallout.

I think it would be funny if republicans out of the blue switched over and voted for Carson.
