I knew we had our fair share of libertarianism on this board, but I didn't realize that half of the Libertarian party apparently posts here as well.

Johnson is the superior alternative to Hillary Trump or Donald Clinton.

If the Internet meant anything, the general would be Rand Paul versus Bernie Sanders.

This is one of the few times I wish the Internet was applicable to real life.

It'd be a pretty boring debate though.

Another presidential election with two Liberals running against one another.

The Internet is such a weird place, if for no other reason than that it's often so much different (at least in appearance) from "real life."

I truly believe that the Internet and social media are the primary reasons so many Americans believe we currently have a bad "race problem."

It's by purpose. It lets every citizen weigh in, in real time. It plays to the victim sentiment of today.

The combination of anonymity and spatial detachment does a bang-up job of exacerbating problems. And making people see ghosts in real life.

One of the great tasks for media scholars and presidential campaign historians over the next few decades will be determining how a blue collar Democrat duped nearly half of the Republican party into thinking he was one of them.

If building a wall,enforcement of existing immigration laws and repealing of Obummercare and lowering of taxes are blue collar democrat I guess I'm supporting the wrong party, A hundred dollars says half of you so called conservatives haven't even read his website. I'm gonna sit back and enjoy the ride..you're privileged to see history in the making my liberal friend. 😘

Cruz is not too far behind from Trump. He's not mathematically out of winning the nomination unlike Kasich.

Cruz has to win around 80% of the remaining delegates. He is not going to get close to that number. He need to pack up and go back to Canada where he belongs.

Kasich might be the only thing keeping Cruz and any non-Trump candidate alive. Most of the states left are mid-Atlantic/New England winner-take-all and Cruz has no chance of taking them. Kasich might, and he isn't much of a factor out west besides OR/WA/CA.

The funny thing is that California will probably determine whether Trump reaches 1237 - 172 winner take all delegates on the line. CA determining the GOP nomination is so ironic.

I have to think a ticket of Cruz and Rubio or Kasich is the plan at this point. I see Cruz blocking anything else with his delegates. Rubio will probably endorse Cruz to position himself for VP.

Xenophobia and nativism are hallmarks of blue collar/labor Democrats. He wants to protect American labor, or so he claims, through protectionist policies - also a hallmark of blue collar Democrats. He isn't fiscally conservative when it comes to entitlements either, particularly his hands-off approach to social security - also a hallmark of blue collar Democrats.

Combine these things with the fact that he's donated no telling how much money to Democrats in the past, he's a Democrat.

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it's probably a ******n duck.

He's donated to both parties, he's a successful businessman and knows how the game is played, I don't expect you or any other hater to grasp that concept.

Whatever helps you rationalize your support for a Democrat.
