Former Obama Campaign Manager Warns Democrats Against Contested Convention Talk: Future of Party ...
Sticks48 comments on Feb 29, 2020:
It is real simple. If you can't draw a large number of Indies, you can't win, whoever wins the nomination. 28% of Americans are registered Democrats. Do the math.
Sticks48 replies on Mar 1, 2020:
@Charlene We are and have been a corprotist country for awhile and or no one else is going to change that because congress and that includes several Dems are not going to change it. Big change comes when a generation dies and right now that is we Boomers. Boomers run most things and will for awhile. It doesn't matter who the Dems pick or who they pick them, if you don't vote for that person you become part of the problem.

@Charlene It doesn't matter what we believe. It matters what they believe, and most of those "they" are our age and will vote in large numbers. I will vote blue no matter who. Anyone who doesn't vote blue because their choice did not get the nomination or vote for the Green Party or some such nonsense, are no better than trumpers.

@Charlene It has to be enough. In some states he he will need republicans. This isn't about total numbers. It is about where those numbers are. A million more people in Calif and NY won't change a thing. There are already Dems that don't want Bernie. I am hoping those millions who didn't vote in 16 will have trump fatigue and vote.

@Outsideit67 According to what I have read it is the people over 60 or 65 who automatically jump to communism when socialist programs are brought up. The younger people are smart enough and weren't around for the non existent threat of the USSR. We have all sorts of socialist programs the old fucks like me benefit from such as Medicare, SS, the VA, farm subsidies, and more. Too many Americans are not very bright. The younger folks look at the nordic countries not the USSR as their model.

If you don't and do something stupid like voting for the Green candidate then if trump wins you are part of the problem. The Green vote for Nader in Florida delivered us Bush.

Show me a Democrat who got elected since Johnson who didn't track toward the middle. You can think what ever you want, it really doesn't matter. Facts matter. I believe in the Socialist/Capitalist governments that make up most of Europe. I am not most Americans. When the Boomers are pretty much gone we may get there. The first step is to get rid of trump period. Political Parties change all of the time and these will too. The republicans are going through a major right now, not a good one, but it is changing.
I have a serious matter to bring before the Senate.

@mordant You think the Dems are all far left. Only a little less than 50% of Dems identify as Progressives. Whether you or I like it or not this is a centrist country. I like Bernie, but he is a dumbass for calling himself a socialist in this country. Progressive would have been just fine. There is a huge number of folks in this country, most Boomers and a bunch of ignorant rednecks who immediately think communist. This has nothing to do with the DNC. People will vote for whomever they want to vote for. If it gets fucked up, it will be the far left who will fuck it up as they have in the past. They are the ones who get all pissy and don't vote or waste it on the Green Party or write in a candidate. Sometimes you vote for the lesser of two evils. If one doesn't vote, one should shut the fuck up. It is our only power.

@mordant I really don't care. If he gets the nod I will vote for him. I am not excited aboutany of them, and that may be our down fall. Dems get very juvenile when the person they support doesn'[t get the nomination. The Dems have shot themselves in the foot before and will probably do it again. I hope not, but it does scare me.

@DavidLaDeau Millenials are the largest voting block. Boomers are just right behind them. Part of trump's support comes from wealthy people because of taxes.

You keep eliminating emojis. Why? It will just cut down on responses, which kind of makes the site pointless. It also seems unless you join too many of the 1000 plus groups you don't see very many posts, which makes the site much less interesting than when I joined. Maybe I have been here too long.
Sticks48 replies on Feb 17, 2020:
@Admin You removed the puke emoji and more than a few folks have asked for it to be returned. If it was explained why, I missed it. Maybe a thumbs down should be added.Why is the number of alerts been eliminated?

Sticks48 comments on Feb 16, 2020:
Religion is a fraud because it is a complete lie. Since you are a golden retriever who can use a computer and can write, you should be able to make enough in TV appearances alone to buy all the nookie your little puppy dog heart desires.

What do you mean by overcome?. Some of the randiest women I have known were Christian church going women. They love sex. Look how Christians get found out for their infidelities or worse for child pornography or sexual abuse of minors. They loves them some sex.

@AnneWimsey I am truly sorry about your brother in law. At 71 I am much more worried about cancer and a whole lot of other horrible diseases waiting to take me out. You worry about the things you choose to worry about and I will worry about the things I choose to worry about, and that just ain't one of them. At my age it is not like when I was on the road in the 70s, 80s, and 90s with all of the one night stands. I don't date. I only go out with women I have known a long time and there are very few of them.

People voting Green in Florida gave us Bush. Just vote for whoever gets the Dems nomination. No matter who it is it cannot be worse than trump.
