Re: How the Dems win in a Landslide
Sometimes it seems that the Fox News division is actually more forthcoming about criticizing Trump's misstatements and failings than the supposedly more liberal media outlets. Chris Wallace, for example, has not been particularly shy about criticizing Trump or his advisors and aides when he thinks ...

Re: How the Dems win in a Landslide
Every single time a Trumptard brings up Biden's gaffes, someone needs to tell them to go listen to the damned buffoon in the White House and remind them that whatever idiotic thing he says, he actually means to say. Biden may be slipping, but Trump was born damned stupid. I think the one problem wi...

Re: Warren drops out
Yeah, I have to admit that this is a critical time for the public perception of Bernie's integrity. If he decides to keep going after what happened last night, he will have lost all credibility with me. It will be about his own personal glory, not the good of the country. Please, just let it go, an...

Re: Warren drops out
Even Yang has endorsed Biden. I'll be curious to see if Sanders actually accepts the math or if he rides this ship down in a blaze of faux glory re-pivoting back to his 2016 position of asking for the super delegates to interject on his behalf.EAllusion wrote:Well, Sanders should now drop out.

Re: Barack Obama as VP
I get what you're saying, Jersey Girl, and I'm not trying to suggest the answer is an outright "no", I just am leaning more to the idea that it is an unanswered question. Another question worth considering is *when* the constitutional issue would come up. A little googling leads me to beli...

Re: Towards a New Nationalism
Hey Xenophon, in case you drop by here is a post in another thread that gets at the ideas in this one, too. http://mormondiscussions.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=1219106#p1219106 Thanks for calling my attention to that, Honor. Nothing I can really find there to disagree with and as we fleshed out her...

Re: Barack Obama as VP
I'm not sure it is quite as clear cut as that. It would be nice if someone a lot smarter than me weighed in but I imagine the language in the 12th amendment could be fairly easily argued to prevent that loophole from actually being a thing: But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of ...

Re: Towards a New Nationalism
I can't find much to disagree with there, honor. Especially: The idea is national identity serves as the focal point for right wing expression of these ideas whereas a different, non-national collective identity serves as the focal point for the left. But in both cases the conflict is with individua...

Re: Towards a New Nationalism
One thing that jumped out at me, and why I included it in the copy in the OP, was how the description of the aims of nationalism could easily be transported over to some parties on the liberal/progressive side. I suppose some of the aims can line up well enough particularly those around economic pr...
