Just as a baseline who would be a good nominee in your opinion? Would it be for the policies they support, because they appear “presidential, or both. Just wondering who fits that bill in your eye.

stop giving away my money. Stop spending that money on things that you have no business in or on things that do not benefit Americans. Give me more if my money back and I'll direct it as I see fit. Stop taking the bait on social issues. Do something to properly address immigration. Figure out how to get critical things made in the US.

Please.
Those protests are an indicator that things are still improving.

Might want to revisit 1992 Watts Riots. Not sure we improved, just still allowing. Still see people with guns on building protecting their business, still see fires, destruction and deaths. Big difference between now and then, we can see live from the POV the destruction as well as hovering helicopters.

Democrats voted for Anyone but Trump apparently. That anyone they voted for was Dixiecrat Joe. Why can't they get on here and defend the man and tell us about his accomplishments and how great his ideas are?

Old White Man is the problem.

Vote for the oldest white man who allowed all of this to happen under his watch in Washington. That’s just racist Uncle Joe being Joe.

Here's a snippet from the 1990 movie The Bonfire of the Vanities starring Bruce Willis as Peter Fallow:

Ed Rifkin: Henry Lamb. Who's that?
Peter Fallow: He was a student of yours at Ruppert High. In your English class.
Ed Rifkin: He was? What's he done?
Peter Fallow: He hasn't done anything. He's been seriously injured. I'm a reporter, I work for a newspaper.
Ed Rifkin: Well, I don't remember him.
Peter Fallow: I'm trying to find what kind of student he was?
Ed Rifkin: If I don't remember him, I guess he was okay.
Peter Fallow: You say he was a good student?
Ed Rifkin: Good doesn't really apply at Ruppert High. They're either cooperative or life-threatening.
Peter Fallow: Well they say he was going to college.
Ed Rifkin: You mean City College. That... they got to open admission policies so if you live in the city, graduate high school, and still breathing, they're gonna take you.
Peter Fallow: What can you tell me about his performance in class? Any aptitude, special skills?
Ed Rifkin: Mr. uh...
Peter Fallow: Fallow. Peter Fallow.
Ed Rifkin: Mr. Fallow, I got 65 students in every class.
Peter Fallow: Tests, homework, any written work he might have turn now?
Ed Rifkin: ****, there hasn't been any written work at Ruppert High since 15, maybe 20 years.
Peter Fallow: Really? And how the hell you keep track of these kids? I mean, Jesus Christ, there must be some record of how this boy measures up to the other students at class.
Ed Rifkin: You're thinking about honor students and grades.
Peter Fallow: Attendance records. Grades. Yeah.
Ed Rifkin: High achievements. We don't make those kind of comparisons. We just try to keep them off the streets. At Ruppert High, an honor student is somebody who comes to class and doesn't piss on the teacher.
Peter Fallow: Well, by that standard then, would you say Henry Lamb was an honor student?
Ed Rifkin: Well, uh, he never pissed on me.

The headline in the next day's paper read something like. "HONOR STUDENT RAN OVER!"

Even though that was a movie from over 30 years ago, this is what's happening today in real life. Sad.

You don't really expect GA's history to be that quickly forgotten do you?

No I expect people to look at what's actually happening. Look at the voter laws being proposed and wonder why MLB took revenue away from their state and gave it to one with even more restrictions. But when you have someone like Abrams leading the way that's not in her best interest. She needs to cultivate that divide

Really, you're saying that they're protesting because things are better? You just reached a new level of stupidity.

The fact that millions of people worldwide attended thousands of peaceful protest addressing the issue of racial injustices regarding law enforcement is 100% a sign of progress, and a necessary and overdue step.

If you spend decades proving to be untrustworthy, it's disingenuous at best to act offended when you are not trusted.

Race relations are not worse than in the 90's and they are not getting worse now. That's to much Fox news viewing.

Sure they are. We’ve went from “equality” to “equity”. It’s not about having opportunities it’s about being rewarded for something simply based on the color of your skin. If you’re black and make bad decisions, aren’t good at anything, punished for committing crimes, etc it’s now just whiteys fault.

Yet you trust someone like Adams who is knowingly lying to you and the state? Are you saying people aren't smart enough to know the truth?
