"Bush vs Clinton" - If The Election Were Held Today, Who Would Win?
According to a new poll conducted by Bloomberg Politics/Purple Insights there is now even less of a clear frontrunner for GOP presidential candidate with than there was several months ago. The reason: Marco Rubio’s support among GOP primary voters has been rising while Jeb Bush's has fallen off, depriving him of his leading spot in the polls.
The poll was conducted by Purple Insights, and found that while Rubio's support has doubled from 5% to 11% since a similar poll conducted in February, Bush has dropped 5% to 11%, putting him into second place behind Rand Paul and Scott Walker tied for first.
Some of the key highlights from the Bloomberg poll:
- Scott Walker leads when first and second choices among likely GOP primary voters are combined — a positive sign for his prospects in N.H. He's backed by 24% in that case, followed by 21% for Bush and Paul and 20% for Rubio.
- Paul leads the GOP field in support among independents, with 18% support. Bush is relatively weak among independents — while drawing support from 15% of Republicans, he has the backing of just 6% of independents.
- Trump was selected by 8% of likely GOP primary voters—up 5 percentage points from February.
- When asked to choose whether Clinton or Bush would be the next president, 33% of N.H. likely general-election voters said Clinton, 27% didn't venture a guess, 22% said someone else and 18% said Bush.
And while there is much confusion in the GOP field, Democrats are far more clear who they will pick as their candidate. With 62% support among likely Democratic primary voters - her best showing in this poll since November, Hillary Clinton has an insurmountable lead, suggesting the relentless wave of negative stories about the Clinton Foundation and her use of a private e-mail server have not hurt her among the party’s base.
Clinton’s closest New Hampshire primary competitor, Sen. Bernie Sanders, has 18%.
But since the outcome of the primaries has already been largely pre-determined, and America will soon to be presented with the next dynastic iteration of the "Bush vs Clinton" false dilemma, here is how the key (non) question breaks down as of this moment: if the 2016 election were held today, for whom would you vote?
It is not only Bush who is "close" to Clinton. According to the pol. three GOP candidates are now within three points of Hillary. In addition to leading Bush by a small margin, she is also ahead of Paul (46-43%) and Rubio (44-42%).
Bloomberg suggest that these are "warning signs" for Clinton. Since the last poll in February, three of the top-polling Republican candidates—Bush, Paul, and Rubio—have moved into striking distance and are now within the poll's margin of error of tying her in hypothetical match-ups.
Perhaps because nothing makes a competition more "credible" than giving the impression that there is an actual choice.
And while nothing shows more clearly that America has absolutely no real options if all it boils down once more is another case of "Bush vs Clinton", some naive, delued invidiuals - elsewhere known as "independents" - still believe that the US democratic machine is not only functioning but well greased.
“Clinton’s strength in the primary remains historic," said Purple Insights' Doug Usher. "But she’s facing the laws of political gravity among independent voters more quickly than her campaign might have hoped.”
Clinton's numbers with independent voters were destined to fall at some point, Usher said, as the campaign becomes more fully formed and intensely competitive.
Among independent general-election voters in New Hampshire, Clinton is tied or nearly tied with Bush, Paul and Rubio. She does better against Walker with this group, leading 42 percent to 36 percent.
Poll respondent Stephanie Korb, 57, a Republican dental assistant from Belmont, N.H., said she is leaning toward Rubio.
“He seems like a less offensive choice than the others,” she said. “I want to hear what the candidates want to do to turn this country around and you're not hearing that.”
...
Part of Paul's strength is his ability to attract independent voters, a key group especially in New Hampshire, where they can vote in partisan primaries. He's supported by 18 percent of independents who said they were likely to vote in the Republican primary, easily the most of anyone in the field. That means he's going to want to see the state's Democratic primary remain a lopsided affair, prompting independents to stick with the action on the Republican side and continue to support him.
Bush is relatively weak among independents. While drawing support from 15 percent of Republicans, he has the backing of just 6 percent of independents. That's a potential problem for Bush, especially if he runs poorly in the Iowa caucuses set for the week before New Hampshire's primary. A Quinnipiac University poll released last week showed Bush in 7th place in Iowa, so he might need a top finish in New Hampshire to rebound.

Hillary or Jeb...what difference does it make?
what difference does voting make?
Selected president, not elected president.
So we get to choose from either of two people who have no intention of working for for anyone but the .01%.
BERNIE 2016. Hillary who? Jeb Gonzalez?
shouldn't Joe Stalin and Pol Pot be on those lists.
I'd vote for Skynet.
At least it's not a subhuman.
Don't you worry none folks, there will be no more presidential elections.
We've sunk to a level below bathos. Those fuckers are giving us all a message (see UK election results where UKIP garners ONE seat): Your vote doesn't matter one bit.
Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho, (porn star and five-time ultimate smackdown wrestling champion)?
We would all lose!
Yes we can lose.
Best picks would be Rand and Bernie. If either win and try to change anything however they will swiftly be Kennedy'd.
I'll be voting for Not Sure.
He saved the plants by spraying them with toilet water.
Long live the Idiocracy.
Brawndo, it's got electrolytes, it's what plants crave.
Simulated democracy, simulated capitalism go hand in hand.
Yea, Bloomberg shaping your opinions American politics. When are you going to wake up and finally say FUCK YOU to these people!?
Can you vote for none of the above?
Failing that, how about Jar Jar Binks?
I vote for Colt... (As in AR-15)
Kodos
Simpletons embracing democracy so other simpletons can destroy capitalism.
Who wins? The MIC and Wall Street, of course.
There will be an epic power struggle soon... very soon.
"Brawndo, it's got electrolytes, it's what plants crave."
I love that movie. The idea that the people become so utterly stupid that they begin intentionally salting their fields, with no idea of what they're doing or why the crops start dying. Things like knowing about history or having the knowledge of what the Romans did to Carthage and why becomes not something that ensures survival, but instead only ensures that people hate, fear, and attack you.
Good thing people could never be so hopelessly dim in the real world. Because if they were, we would all be so utterly fucked...
Last time Homer Jay Simpson was my write-in candidate but I think I'm definitely writing-in for 2016:
"Dwayne Elizondo MD Herbert Camacho"
Nah...the criminals in DC would just pay to have its subroutines rewritten.
The only winning move is not to play.
Sure as hell wouldn't be America!
That clip from the simpsons where everybody got to vote on those 2 aliens would be in order
You may be closer to the truth than even you could imagine.
Rand Paul is America's only hope for lessening the impact of its inevitable collapse.
Sure - more bowing before Netanyahu will solve all America's problems.
In 2013, during a visit to Israel, Paul told the Jerusalem Post that it’s “none of our business” if Israel builds new settlements in east Jerusalem. He added that it wasn’t America’s place to tell the Israeli government how to defend itself or opine on whether or not the country should withdraw from the Golan Heights.
We have given Israel $135B in mostly military aid since 1949. We are an accessory to whatever they do.
I think TPTB have gotten to Rand.
he should have stood up like a man and said "It not in the US interest to be giving billions in welfare to Israel"
@ which point every fucking Grubered voter simply blames Libertarianism for the collapse. Good luck with that. Libertarians and Anarchists would do well to sit this whole erection thing out. Let the storm pass, and attempt to enlighten the Grubered simpletons.
Personally I like Kang but Kodos is sexier and has more hair so he's got my vote.
Miffed;-)
I would re elect Jimmy Cater before I would pick either of those two. I take stupid over the DC criminal crime families.
Jimmy Carter is anti-ZioCunt, so he can't be all that stupid.
"... for whom would you vote"
WTF? Where is "Other", "Nobody" and "Huh?" ?
It's become obvious that the Official election final vote count will be as fukdup as the unemployment numbers.
WTF indeed. They offered a None of the Above choice and only three fucking percent chose it?
We're doomed. These shitheads are getting exactly the government that they deserve, but it sucks being collateral damage.
Fuck. I didn't spot that. We really are screwed when statistically zero people realize that NOTA is the only rational option. Our species (or at least that portion represented in these polls in this country) are screwed. Now successfully programmed to take part in the validation of the power that screws us over. What a sad commentary on human "intelligence". :(
NOTA...

Bullshit.
Carter loaded his administration with Trilateralists and CFR.
Pay attention to what they do...not what they say.
Again ZH does not cease to surprise me. There are ignorant people or intentionally misleading people trolling here those whom do not want you to know the truth.
From http://modernhistoryproject.org/mhp?Article=FinalWarning&C=9.1
Under the section titled, Jimmy Carter, The Trilateralist President.
Commission members must resign when they accept positions in the Executive branch, but they remain loyal, and usually rejoin the group when their service is complete. About 40% of the American Trilateral members joined the Carter Administration. In all, 291 members of the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations joined the Administration. Among the Carter Administration officials who have been members:
Brezinski was responsible for recruiting the Afghans to fight the Soviets, the recruiter of Osama bin Laden, and a staunch supporter of Zionist policy.
This is common knowledge.
And, I'd add, current US foreign policy makes no sense whatsoever outside the context of Brzezinski's thinking. Ukraine, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Libya; what's coming in the Central Asian "-stan" countries; Brzezinski's fingerprints are all over this. His and Wolfowitz's.
And there is more to come from these neocons whom are intent on killing all of us.
Note the junk when I deliver the facts...
The troll forces do not want their schemes unveiled.
Note that they cannot even deliver a contrarary response save that of a downarrow.
Not liking facts does not change facts.
Some are just too invested into the matrix.
Tom.
I made some homebrew solid rocket fuel right in my own kitchen.

Exsqueeze me?
Were you even aroung in the late 70s???
If he is 37 Years old then he was born in 1978.
Thirtyseven???
Damn I am getting old.
you obviously didnt live through the late 70's
I would stand with Hillary, but also support Bernie. Actually, Hillary or Bernie will be president. All will be good. Vote for both of them.
---------
If you are interested in Hillary Clinton 2016 T-Shirts, you can get one to support here. And if you are interested in Bernie Sanders 2016 T-Shirt, you can get one to stand with him. Video about Bernie Sanders for President 2016 T-shirt & Hillary Clinton 2016 T-shirt can be found here.
The candidates don’t even differe also.
Look to greece, the new guy was going to save greece...
but when the shit is already breaking up and all decks are flooded, there’s nothing to save anymore.
The best thing actually is a president who will fuck thing up so badly, that all starts to go really fast and the economy can start at new and give the young people a fresh start.
On the other hand... if 62% want to vote for Hillary... are these people actually worth saving? Because, in the end you get the president you deserve and Obama was already a good signal what America deserves.
In that case, we need to elect hillary.
You make good sense. We should elect Hillary and get this show on the road. (shit show). The only way we are ever going to drink ourselves sober is to start drinking. What we need is a good cleansing by fire. So let's start the fire already. Hillary/Bush 2016!!!
Or said another way "if there must be trouble, let it be in my time, so that my children may have peace". --Thomas Paine
So it is. Everybody got massive amounts of time to prepare.
so you have camp a: those who’ll vote for hillary because she’s a woman and that would be cool Even if she’s a criminal with a communist agenda.
camp b: those who prepared for a breakdown
why wait another 15 years?
VOTE FOR SILVER AND GOLD, VOTE HILLARY!!
BRING IT ON! BURN DOWN THE HOUSE!!!
I agree with your original post, but if you think Hillary is a communist then you need your head examined. If anything she runs toward facism. .
what you said
So, you recommend Jeb Bush? I'm opposed to a Bush or Clinton candidate. If we want royalty, we might as well import someone from your neck of the woods. Its not without precident, and if we want to go down that road we ought at least to get a prince of the blood. I understand there are plenty of unemployed and down-on-their luck royals in Europe. I bet one of them would jump at the chance, and at least they have bona fides unlike these Americans, who are totally without breeding. I think his Imperial Royal Highness, the current Czar of All the Russias might be available.
If you're harboring any doubt about Walker's and Cruz's employers...here you go:
‘NYT’ and ‘MSNBC’ leave Marco Rubio backer’s Israel agenda out of the story
US Politics
Philip Weiss on May 10, 2015 3 Comments
There are a lot of elephants running around the room in this piece in the New York Times today titled, “Billionaire lifts Marco Rubio, Politically and Personally.”
Senator Rubio has vaulted to the front of the Republican presidential field, and the billionaire who is expected to spend $10 million to try and make him president is Norman Braman, 82, South Florida auto dealer and professional sports team owner. The fact that Braman is a big Israel supporter appears just once in the (interminable) piece: his “ardent commitment to Israel.” We don’t learn that a few days after Rubio was elected to the Senate, in 2010, he made his first trip to Israel and met Braman and his family there. We don’t learn that Braman is Jewish– and that he believes that Israel’s creation revolutionized Jewish life in the west.
And so the authors, Michael Barbaro and Steve Eder can get away with this stretcher:
Pressed on his financial ties to Mr. Braman, Mr. Rubio said in an interview that he saw no ethical issue. “What is the conflict?” he asked. “I don’t ever recall Norman Braman ever asking for anything for himself.”
I just watched Rubio on the Senate floor saying he wanted Iran to recognize Israel’s existence before the U.S. cuts any nuclear deal with Iran. Does that have anything to do with the fact that he long discussed Israel with Braman and went there with his donor immediately after he got on to the national stage? I think it does, but our leading newspaper can’t even ask the question, about perhaps the most important foreign-policy issue of the coming election.
More whitewash, at MSNBC. Another piece on Braman that doesn’t mention Israel, and claims Braman wants nothing of Rubio.
“Norm Braman is a great man, a pillar of the South Florida community and someone who I’m personally close to. I’m very proud to be associated with him,” Rubio said in an interview early Saturday evening, after he walked up and down Greenville’s Main Street shaking hands with voters. He repeated past assertions that there’s no ethical conflicts in the relationship because Braman has never asked him for political favors.
Again, just days after he was elected to the Senate, Rubio was traveling to Israel to meet Braman there. Till our press even addresses the issue of the Israel lobby, people are going to form dark and conspiratorial views of the extent of its influence. And until it addresses the issue, some conspiratorial ideas will actually have merit. We need sunshine. Especially from Jewish writers, who understand the role of Zionism inside Jewish life.
And by the way, a piece in the Times today about Republican hopefuls adopting a “muscular foreign policy” at a South Carolina Freedom Summit was more frank about the Israel lobby’s presence in our politics. Nick Corasanti reported:
[Wisconsin Governor Scott] Walker, who does not have as much experience as some of his potential rivals on foreign policy, sought to demonstrate that he is working to address what could be viewed as his greatest weakness. Hours after he left the stage, he boarded a plane to Israel for what is being billed as a “listening tour,” which he has said includes a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. According to a schedule of his trip obtained by The New York Times, Mr. Walker will also tour the Western Wall in Jerusalem, meet with members of Parliament and the Israeli Defense Forces, and take a helicopter tour of Israel.
But aside from a quick mention during his remarks, Mr. Walker was unwilling to discuss the trip.
Yet most American's will be dumb enough to vote for them, god they are fucking stupid.
I don't know who would win, but I know that America would lose.
Vote Beelzebub: He's not the lesser of 2 evils; he's the head honcho
Since it has worked so well for the general populace: let's all just sit back and allow the Zio-Globalists impose an agressively oppressive duopolist Aristocracy and imprialist disenfrancisement agenda on the United State's Citizenry -and the world- without a confrontation or propostion of an alternative...
It is the Two Party controlled duopolist Electoral College that (s)elects 'Presidents' which as act as faux leader/representatives to pursue oppressive policies against the Citizenry: the popular vote is entirely irrelevant and merley utilized as an MSM diversion from the entrenched disenfranchisement and oppression by unelected invalid Shadow Government PTB.
FUCK the duplicitous Demopublican and Republicrat criminal backroom dealers and lords of socio-economic oppression and subjugation.
Does nobody in America understand that the pesident is not a president but he is a CEO of a corporation called the "UNIED STATES" stop with this voting thing you are just making yourself look stupid.
choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil.... Rand Paul just seems like a system appointed shrill for the protest camp, much like Obama was....
I'll have the lasagna.
I'm voting for Prince. This ship is sinking fast, at least have some funk to watch it go down.
I would also guess that Prince would give about ZERO fucks to the happenings around the globe, unless it involved attractive women and valour suits. What more could you ask for?
Middle East problems? Pimp hand.
EU problems? Pimp hand Merkel.
Japanese Problem? Prince don't fuck around with Asians.
Social problems back home? Prince don't listen to bitches.
Just sayin' Prince 2016.
Tonight I'm gonna party like its 1999.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iI2fRPmEZ6A
Be real careful what you wish for, denverdolomte. Prince is anti Second Amendment.
http://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2015/05/09/prince-releases-protes...
Prince is a Jehovah's Witness now so he's all about the End of Days LOL!
did you know that Prince is mensa rated genius? he was dissatisfied with his recording contract, so he studied the law and figured out that if he changed his name to an unpronouncable symbol it would void the contract. true. after that, the lawyers changed the standard contracts to sew up this loophole.
Who Win's? Who care's. I can tell you who loses! Everyone else. I have fucking had it with Clintons and Bush's. Too bad H.W. returned from WWII. He should have died in the South Pacific.
He almost did die, but he wisely bailed out of his damaged but still flyable plane and doomed his two crewmates to die in a pilotless crash. Thank you, george, for your service.
That's a Trick Question, no?
Either way, the American People Lose!
Of course it's a Trick Question, and yes, the Americn People (the Bottom 80%) lose.
People keep falling for the Magician's Trick of Psychological Misdirection, using Distraction & Action. "Hey, look over there... (a skittle-shitting unicorn!)"
Oh good look...another 50/50 election approaches....you'd figure by the 4th or 5th one people would catch on this shit is rigged...
No they won't, dumb women (and men) around the country will be weeping in the streets stating how proud they are to witness the history of the first "woman" to be elected. As they were when the first "black" (and possibly homosexual) was elected
As if "Identity Politics" weren't already discredited enough in the US (and apparently, it isn't), I present for your consideration, President Obama's achievements in behalf of the African-American community. Women for Hilary, get ready. It's your turn.
What a depressing article. Somebody hand me my gun, I'd like to off myself.
Save your bullet.
Who cares who wins? The American people will lose.
Both are Neocon puppets who will never say no to more war and more killing.
Yup, total FALSE CHOICE Argument, a la...
"Which Pimp, Drugdealer, or Crimelord do you prefer? Which Snake Oil salesman is better? Which one looks, acts and sounds like they got more style?"
This is because 'Mericans have lost the virtue of their Principles, and have become addicted to the CULT OF PERSONALITY. It turns out that whatever Presidential Candidate can pump up that part of their campaign... Wins.
I wonder how they'd do up against a Kardashian?
Probably would get a disease.
The banks would win. Oh and the mic.
I would probably leave that box unchecked. I would be too afraid to say I voted for either of them if they actually won.
Costa Rica, Central America's vaunted democracy, suffers from a similar malaise in politics, even though the party alignment is much more fluid and parties come and go somewhat.
ABSTENTISMO (abstention) is viewed as the winner these days in Costa Rica. Nearly half the electorate did not vote for president in the 2014 elections. If ABSTENTISMO were a candidate, ABSTENTISMO would have won, gaining 45% of the potential vote, more than the "winning" candidate.
ABSTENTISMO wins here in the US as well. Only Nevada gives voters the choice of NONE OF THE ABOVE (sometimes).
WHY, oh why, is the option of NONE OF THE ABOVE not included in polls? Perhaps, TPTB are afraid of the answer! Just perhaps.
The Oligarchy.
Israhell wins for sure.
Choose your poison -
Vote Bush and we invade Iraq for the third time
Vote Clinton and we invade some Eastern European country again
Or Libya! She has some open business there..those fuckers made her appear in a hearing after all...
Urban Leged tells us that in the past, the State of Utah gave condemned prisoners the choice of being shot or hanged.
The story continues that one prisoner wanted to know which cost the State of Utah more. That was his choice.
Who would win ?
People are switched on & know the fix is in & the gig is up...
Albeit it's slow & many behind the curve but the time is coming.
There would be a Rebel-lution at some point ....
Vote smart... Rand Paul might be your best hope at this point.
Well he donned a Yarmulka and beat his head on the Wailing Wall so he has a chance.
Pancreatic cancer or ALS, you decide! !!!
Don't you need a country to have a president?
"Not Sure", wasn't he the protagonist of Idiocracy? I'd vote for him, even though he talks like a fag.
Message to Americans:
When you guys vote to get fucked in the ass again by these same crony thieving scumbags don't come round here bitchin like you didnt want it.
Like predicting the outcome of a WWE professional wrestling match. The winners are always the venue and promoters.
In the DC US the winners will be the promoters, Zion, and the venue, DC US pols and crats.
But, unlike a wrestling match, the folks in the stands won't have a good time during or after the match.
Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission.
wwe results ? who gonna win wwe championship at payback , any guess ?
Don't know who would win, but I can sure tell you who will lose........ or maybe I don't have to.
It such an obscentiy that we are really looking at another Bush or Clinton in the White House. A fucking obscenity. The founding fathers may not have even bothered with the Revolution if they knew this country was going to end up as the farcical oligarchy that it is today.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.
H. L. Mencken
No to take away from your point, but who did the founding fathers consider to be "The People"?
Who would care? Would it change anything? Seeing as they are ALL puppets of the Zionist puppetmasters.
I don't believe the results of the post. I think Hillary will lose by a huge margin and mainstream media is wrong as ever. Consider the last election where the mainstream media was off by a mile. They were not even close in terms of magnitude of defeat of the donkey party and yet prior to the election they were braying asses about how close the election would be.
This is part of the huge disinformation campaign propagated by the mainstream media which is largely out of touch or intentionally publishing disinformation. Nobody I know like Hillary even democrats who say they will stay home and not vote.
Why is Zero Hedge giving the Clinton and Bush Crime Syndicates any coverage at all?
so thats why Hillary had those crackers arrested in Paul's home state.
I would vote for the Libertarian candidate, close my business, start taking my social security, and mover abroad.
The longer you wait the more painful it will be. Do IT NOW.
Good plan, now how are you going to move all your bullion across tha border?
The will all spend a few billion campaigning and jacking each other off and in the end they will do exactly what their Zionists masters tell them to do.
Clinton , Bush, Obama, all fucking imbeciles. Expect more imbeciles .

Jeb Bush too will not make it no matter how much money he puts into the race because the mainstream media has destroyed the Bush brand. Now I don't like Jeb either but I'm just saying that his chances are slim and none.
You don't believe in it, but it believes in Bilderberg, and in then end that is all that matters.
"....fortune strums a mournful tune, for he whose campaign peaks too soon."
(any trivia buffs know the reference?)
I’m not giving up hope that “Not Sure” will take the prize. After all, he won in the movie Idiocracy.
One thing for sure, I’m not voting for either Hillary or Jeb. Casting a useless vote is one thing, proving you’re an idiot is another.
You will not vote if you refuse to vote for Broom Hitlery or Jebbie-My-Daddy's-Penis-WorkedTwice.
The vote will be decided by a punch of a computer button.
I suspected that they would rinse and repeat John McCain, yep, Lindsay Graham is right there. If he gets the nomination, I expect either Patreus or John Bolton to be VP. Moar Woar will be the slogan.
The Paris-Chartres Pilgrimage is a three-day walk from Notre-Dame de Paris to Notre-Dame de Chartres, approximately 60 miles.

if you have got the time, it is a very nice and arduous walk, but is`s worth.
Surprise, surprise, nothing has changed, nothing will ever change, stop pretending otherwise: establishment GOP will *always* lead the pack, Clinton is *always* the Dem favorite, and it's *always* a tossup between the two candidates selected by Bilderberg.
Biden is a strong 2nd choice? I'm gonna go get high now. not /s
I don't know who would win such an alleged contest. I won't be casting a vote for either one. But I do know who the loser would be. There is a whole list of them.
1. The Constitution
2. The survival of the Republic
3. The rule of law.
4. Reason, logic, liberty, selfdetermination, etc. etc. etc.
Oh thats easy! bush and clinton.
Bernie Sanders will beat Hillary in the primary same way Obama did in 2008.
watch.
A few months ago I would have laughed at your comment....
I've been in the bay area for a few months and have officially realized that there is no "left wing" in this country. Even in San Francisco. All it is is a place where a bunch of "liberals" drive around thousands of homeless people in their Mercedes. ..with an Obama bumper sticker. All of them are so full of shit. I talk to mostly europeans/australians/new zealanders who are "middle class" and all of them are doing better than even "well off" Americans (myself included) They get actual vacations, benefits, healthy food, and a decent wage for the people at the bottom. You go to my hometown in Ohio and all you see are a bunch of sad, depressed, desperate people who think they are "middle class". HA! Anyway, my political "center" has moved rapidly to the left.
Feel free to trash this post.
Bernie 2016.
Why no mention of Elizabeth Warren?
Bernie Sanders would be even better, if he can win, because America needs to hurry up and get to full socialism. No more traveling to Cuba when cute local girls will service you for a loaf of bread. Nor will we fear urban rioters; we'll welcome them as free meat.
I'm preparing for full socialism by not living in a city or a desert (sorry, California) and learning which weeds are edible. Don't disappoint me, Bernie!
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard."
H. L. Mencken
Giant Douche or Shit Sandwich....
Idiotic GOP lets two states that didn't go for them in the last two cycles to decide the nominee. Such idiotic leadership. As a conservative, I would either go third party or vote democrat so this mother burns faster before I vote for Jeb/Christie/Rubio....
Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton:
This either a "Hobson's Choice" or a "Morton's Fork". Either one, it's bad news for America And the American people.
A Hobson's choice is a free choice in which only one option is offered. As a person may refuse to take that option, the choice is therefore between taking the option or not; "take it or leave it"
A Morton's Fork is where a character is presented two alternatives, A and B. If the character chooses A, then something bad happens. If they choose B, a similar or identical bad thing happens — but for a different reason.
In other words, no GOP nominee can hope for a fraud-free majority against Hillary, thanks in part to decades of uncontrolled immigration. To have any chance of success a GOP nominee will need 45 per cent of the Latino vote. No GOP nominee has ever gotten that. The decision has already been made. The rest is theatre designed to provide the illusion of democracy.

Where Did Boris Go? Miss the Funny Russian Accent.... BORIS for Presient 2016!!!
When you have, "The Donald" as the fifth leading Repubican Presidential candidate there is so much potential posting flamage available you don't know which one to go with.
So, its cooked in. If the Republicans want to lose then nominate Bush. If they want to win, nominate Rand Paul. They will select Bush because they have already been bought. Wonder who Clinton will pick as her VP?
Sarah Palin. that would be a good insurance policy that no one bumps Killary off
Was just discussing this with my far-left friend yesterday. The elections are all about keeping insiders in office, not which side of the same coin wins. The current republican party would rather have Clinton be President than elect Paul, just as the democratic party would rather see Bush in office than elect Sanders.
Since VP is a great way to neutralize opponents while gaining votes, I bet they put Warren on the short list for VP.
Either way, we lose....
Who stated ''If voting made a difference , it would be banned''
For the first time in my adult life, I am really ashamed of my country, because stupid is finally the majority.
I'm ashamed of the US and it's not even my country.
Do you want to be the next first Lady? I think thats a prereq now.
Would I rather be hit in the balls with a claw or ball pein hammer?
none of the above
If it comes down to a Clinton v. Bush ticket, I'm not voting. Fuck it, I'm not giving my consent to this clown show.
If only I were a masochist... oh wait, they're in your neighborhood too. Time to get my jack boots on, cause I'm not about to let myself get fucked.
You lot just witnessed the farce we call an election here didnt you? What more do you expect?
I would arrest and jail not just the bush and the clinton, but every single member of the families involved, and the hangers on. All of them.
Then, give them the right to clear their names in a very fair and positively unbiased trial to prove their innocence of what we all know they have their dirty hands on.
And after the trial, I would hang the cunts like the dogs they so surely are. Not just your lot but right back here????? You call this fucking shit we are forced to live under a fucking democracy? A republic? A right fucking piss take is what I call it.
Hang the cunts and let Dog sort the bastards owt.
Cunts
:-)
I resent that you claim they should be hung as "dogs". No canines desrve to be hung. In appropriate circumstances, Dogs should be put to sleep in a humane manner. Most vicious dogs are that way because of wicked human masters. Now as for the Bush's and Clinton's - if and when they are properly tried and convicted under the Rule of Law, with Constitutional due process, they should executed for treason in accordance with the law-if a jury of their peers deems it to be appropriate. I believe (though I may be wrong) a firing squad is the legal manner. And I don't believe they should be waterboarded or tortured - though they may deserve it - our country should never allow for such cruel and unusual punishment. We need to control our passions and emotions -this country needs to go back to being a Constitutional nation ruled by Law.
Perhaps in times gone by Savy.
Its about time the average fucking joe blew his fucking top and hanged these cunts. The bush is related to the queem, so is fucking cameron. Apologises to dogs.
Peel the cunts alive, stone them to death, chop the fuckers up is all I'm asking, if you see where we are all coming from.
There will never be, the system was never built like that for a political solution to our collective problems my friend, just the same as fucking Fiat wedge.
Same as it ever was, nationalism and violence. These cunts cant just read us like a book, the cunts wrote it.
Bank on it.
;-(
In Korea, for example, you will see LIVE dogs slowly strangling to death outside of butcher shops, it supposedly makes their meat more tender. With a lot of publicity about it in the West it is possible that they do this out view now.
In China you can see, as I did on the PBS show GLOBE TREKKERS, Chinese with butchered dogs on their backs.
We are NOT all the same.
Who cares? They both serve the same criminal oligarchs who are running this country into the ground.
