Re: 2016 Presidential Election
There would have to be a serious movement to get something other than a D or R in the office. I just don't see that happening in our lifetime. I'd just love to see a term limit on both the house and senate to get new innovative ideas in there (at least I would hope that would happen over time).shel311 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 1:39 pm Dems and Republicans can't decide over a stimulus plans to send those checks to Americans, and none of it has to do with the checks. They're fighting over the items that have nothing to do with COVID that each side is trying to place in the bills to get these things they want passed.
And yet, the overwhelming majority of Americans(and posters in here) are going to go out in November and vote for a Democrat or Republican, essentially supporting this behavior.

What do you mean by "or"? That's the exact mindset I was talking about.GeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 1:48 pm Or everyone doesn't want to potentially waste their vote.

Re: 2016 Presidential Election
My "or" was a retort to your argument. It is a wasted vote without a huge movement. One party will get their votes taken away from them for the 3rd party. This year it may be democrats, in 4 years it may be republicans. And neither voting block wants to lose so they will never vote 3rd partyshel311 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 1:49 pmWhat do you mean by "or"?

Only read about a paragraph or so... but I'll just assume that Adam Schiff is highly involved and already has some anonymous sources.

Re: 2016 Presidential Election
While I agree it should be reviewed regardless of it is was a perfect response or the worst, but right now doesnt seem like the best time to allocate resources to that.

Re: 2016 Presidential Election
Plus, it's not even over so it's pointless to start a review now, just wait til it's over.
I do find it odd that there's legislation needed to conduct a review of the response though. That should be pretty standard.

"We will need to delay the work of the commission until the crisis has abated to ensure that it does not interfere with the agencies that are leading the response. But that should not prevent us from beginning to identify where we got it wrong and how we can be prepared for the next pandemic," Schiff told the Post.

Re: 2016 Presidential Election
So he says we NEED to delay until the crisis is abated, but that need should not prevent us from starting before the crisis is abated?
Umm...what?

Re: 2016 Presidential Election
Pretty crazy that one side has Trump going as a likely 2 term President...and the other side is miraculously in even worse shape than the side Trump is on

Re: 2016 Presidential Election
Just ugly state of leaders right now in this country.
We need some blue potential prospects coming up through the ranks.
The political die hards here may know some names from both parties or independents showing growth.
