Gary Johnson would have been hilarious in the debates when they discussed foreign policy, even more than Admiral Stockdale in the 1992 Vice President debate who came out with lines like "I've used up all my ammo already" when he couldn't answer a question and at one point claimed he had turned off his hearing aid so didn't follow the discussion.
The point is we should have access to candidates who are on enough ballots to potentially win the presidency. If they don't perform well in the debates, at least they got their chance at it.

LOL, all the usual bullshit to make his deplorable core slobber like a pack of dogs, but he sounds a little more coherent now because they forced him to start using teleprompter, so he wouldn't do his typical repetitive rambling. Of course, this one's heavily edited, too.

The "deplorable core" of this country knows the worst government corruption since Watergate when we see it, and we will take our country back on Tuesday. And speaking of bs, your gal Hill had to be fed debate questions by Donna Brazile.

Black men got the right to vote at least 50 years before women did...if that tells you anything.
And the DNC conspired to have a woman as their nominee...if that tells you anything. Not to mention the fact that she's consistently polled higher than Trump.

No, Trump's base isn't capable of rational thought. They would (obviously) vote for the Antichrist if he had an (R) after his name on the ballot. Therefore, it must be mostly independent males.
Any time a woman has her detractors, people automatically cry sexism. It's become a convenient device to shut down any criticism of a woman, be it legitimate or not.

Are there men who refuse to vote for a woman? Of course. Is that the main reason why independent, progressive, and moderate men wouldn't vote for Hillary? So far, all I've heard are assumptions.

Your guess is as good as mine, but I assume so since that's apparently where the vast majority of Hillary's substantially higher than usual support from women comes from. There must be some reasonable explanation why men in that same demographic aren't nearly as offended by Trump's sexism.
A lot of men are offended by Trump's sexism, and are voting for Jill Stein. That's a bit of nuance Obama seemed to miss.

I need to see numbers before I believe that progressives wouldn't vote for Hillary solely because she's a woman. After all, we're part of an ideological group that's most likely to support women's rights.


Yeah, we might end up with the unprecedented economic prosperity o the last Clinton presidency and then where would we be? lol
That is arguably the best thing to come out of Bill Clinton's Presidency, but it wasn't all sunshine and roses. Criminal justice reform led to mass incarcerations, anti-gay legislation concerning the military and marriage was passed, as was welfare reform. Hillary supported all of these policies. Hillary is often hailed as a champion of women's rights, but how many poverty stricken mothers were hurt by the gutting of welfare in the 90s?

I don't buy that. What's next? A Kardashian presidency? The sad part is as tacky and embarrassing as that would be, it would be far less dangerous than a Trump presidency. And they're not any less qualified. WTF is wrong with these people? :confused:
George Carlin said it best when he said "garbage in, garbage out." Apathy and ignorance is how we end up with our politicians.

Well, if that's true, they seriously underestimated the utter stupidity of a large segment of the American population.
Yes, I think it's fair to say that they overplayed their hand in the pursuit of their desire for power.

The disaster-in-waiting that is Trump is reason enough to be ecstatic about Clinton. If nothing else, saving the republic should be sufficient motivation.
It will still be at somebody else's expense. Most likely civilians in the Middle East. Don't expect the NSA's surveillance of us to stop anytime soon either.

With a ball to follow at Club Fed? Maybe she'll invite the 5 foreign government agencies that hacked classified info from her server. Of course her buddies Abedin and Podesta will already be there to attend.
1) B!tching about it won't stop it. 2) Why make yourself even more miserable? 3) Your lust to see Hillary locked up is pure delusion. 4) Do you really want to live in an echo chamber for the next 4 years?

I have faith in the highly motivated FBI agents and the voters, who recognize that Hill has corrupted both the State and Justice depts., who will see to it that the right

I have faith that the highly motivated FBI agents and voters, who recognize that Hill has corrupted both the State and Justice depts, will do the right thing for this country. Your "delusional" paranoia about a nuclear apocalypse and drinking of the distraction from real issues that affect the welfare of the country Kool-aid won't stop that from happening.

Since Make America Great Again is a direct appeal to those who think that immigration and those "colored people" are what is wrong with America of course the Klan is going to endorse him, he is a defacto Klansman.

There is nothing more disgusting in modern history than the vile, hate filled sociopath thing running for President, and not as a joke on some comedy show. This is real!

4 days and counting . . .

And in today news:

US election: Hillary's humiliating low road to White House

_92249144_gettyimages-620678098.jpg

Hillary Clinton could be days away from earning the most powerful job in the land. But the road to victory has been a rough one.

  • Her journey in these final days has taken her across this vast continent, and travelling with Hillary Clinton, on her plane and in her motorcade, I have got to see the view from her window.
  • Of the snarling faces of pro-Trump protesters, some dressed in prison fatigues, some waving the Confederate flag, as she arrived for a rally in the Florida countryside.
_92249340_gettyimages-618590768.jpg

  • Of the floodlit faces of supporters at a night-time, open-air rally in Fort Lauderdale, where a Trump protester lurked in the crowd with a placard he had smuggled in: "Bill Clinton is a rapist."
_92249140_gettyimages-614059420.jpg

  • Her road to the White House has been lined with anger, hatred and mistrust. And surely it must sometimes be painful to peer through the tinted glass of her armoured SUV to see demonstrators who would rather see her in jail. From bullets those vehicles offer a protective shell, but not the brickbats.
  • Then came that October surprise on steroids, as Fox News described the FBI's announcement that it was reviewing emails found on the laptop used by her closest aide Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner, the disgraced former Congressman.
  • Rather than ending on high-minded appeals for national unity, the plan when she enjoyed double-digits leads in the polls, Hillary Clinton has been forced to re-litigate the case against Donald Trump.
  • Rather than outlining her vision for the nation, she has sounded like a prosecutor making a desperate closing argument in a scrappy and sordid trial that the jury can't wait to end.
  • What's been striking about her stump speeches in these final days is their tone of exasperation.
  • As she recites again her curriculum vitae - those years fighting for children as a lawyer, her tenure as First Lady, her time in the Senate co-sponsoring bipartisan legislation, those 112 countries she visited as Secretary of State, it is as if she cannot believe that the world's most important job interview could end with someone so manifestly unqualified being appointed.
  • A man, she repeatedly reminds audiences, who was presenting Celebrity Apprentice on the night that she was hunkered in the Situation Room watching the mission that killed Osama Bin Laden.
  • Nor can she seem to fully process the idea that this polyglot nation, in which millions more women will vote than men, could seriously entertain the idea of electing a candidate whose name has become synonymous with xenophobia and misogyny.
  • The unspoken line of these final days speeches is: How did it ever come to this?
  • It is as if she has walked onto the set of the wrong movie. Or, more aptly, the set of the wrong daytime show: Jerry Springer or Judge Judy rather than Oprah or Ellen.
  • Surely, she could never have imagined that at a campaign stop in Florida, she would be introduced by a former Miss Universe, Alicia Machado - there to remind women voters that Donald Trump has called her Miss Piggy.
  • Nor would she have predicted that at a rally in North Carolina she would have to call on Bernie Sanders, a proud socialist and septuagenarian, who managed this year to enthuse young female voters in ways that she struggled to do so.
  • Surely it must be wounding to be so dependent on the star power of Michelle Obama. And also to rely so heavily on Barack Obama, not only to act as her campaigner-in-chief, but more importantly her character witness-in-chief.
  • As campaigns reach their climax, it is customary for presidential candidates to reflect on how seeking the highest office in the land has been a humbling experience.
  • But there must have been times when Hillary Clinton has also found it deeply humiliating.
  • To peer out of the window in these final days, with the country flashing by, is to have been reminded of what can be awe-inspiring about America. Flying into Las Vegas, we looked down on the Hoover Dam, that great monument to American ingenuity.
  • We have travelled to its university campuses, those academic powerhouses that have helped make America great.
  • From the palm-lined beaches of southern Florida to the copper-tinted mountains on the fringes of Phoenix, we have witnessed its epic beauty. But the end of this campaign, like so much that has gone before, has been unlovely and unedifying.
  • In these final days, it has felt like we have been travelling along a low road to the White House.
