2016 USA Presidential election thread I: The warm-up

[Zealot]

Hillary doesn't want to go to war for any other reason than that she doesn't consider soldiers people.

My family's been in the army since before it had "U.S." in front of it, I'll take care of you.

[Salodin]

CNN is running wild with Bernies attacks on Clinton. Looks like his campaign grew a pair and its taking off.

Jeb Bush: 'Please Clap'

Really starting to feel bad for the guy

[tyven]

i thought the please clap video was endearing, he wasnt pitifully asking for applause, it was funny and he showed good comedic timing on it. good for you Jebra

[Sho]

Everyone will read it as a pathetic dig for claps. You know how the Liberal Media works, lol.

[Churchill]

I'm going to write in Early Cuyler.

[Waraji]

Anyone else catch that ultra Clinton close up on CNN just now? She's also dodging that euthanasia question. Weak shit.

[kuronosan]

Maybe because she's a shitty candidate?

[Sho]

She's a pragmatist, lol. Pragmatic people in politics will dodge questions they cannot answer fully because of hidden interests. Most moderates on either side are also pragmatists.

I think it's the one think I both like and hate about Sanders -- he's not a pragmatic person. Whatever you hear is what he truly believes in 100, complete with idealism and all. He's strong because he's the type of guy you truly can believe in and that he's in your corner. He's weak in that he literally puts his heart on his sleeve and tells everyone the honest truth of what he believes and the reality of the world... fellow politicians don't want to hear the truth told to them, mainly because they are there to play politics as usual and kick the can further down the road if it furthers their personal interests.

[Sho]

Wow, that philosophical question bomb doe.

Pretty sure no one person can answer that question well.

[Waraji]

Wow, that philosophical question bomb doe.

Why is it that I feel she couldn't ever be genuine about this? She sounds like she's giving a Beauty Pageant answer.

[Churchill]

because she's fake, that's why intelligent people don't like her

[Sho]

I expected the dodge as soon as he finished explained the "Two Pockets" story. She's pretty fake, and her focus group tested answers couldn't cover for it.

I actually expect that question and response to be cut away and made into a Youtube video soon. It was a great question that should be asked to each and every candidate in this cycle.

[Sho]

"I want you to know what dosage is right."

... is she fucking serious? This woman never smoked weed a day in her life.

lol Marijuana overdoses.

[Krandor]

ODing on marijuana is called taking a nap.

I'm sure a better version will show up soon, but in the meantime...

[Niiro]

Woman was told years ago to smile more to increase her human appeal and still has not figured out how to do it right.

Should just wear one of those cheap president costume masks of Bill.

[Waraji]

That's that "Creme de Resistance".

[Kurokikaze]

Everyone will read it as a pathetic dig for claps. You know how the Liberal Media works, lol.

I honestly found it weird that no one clapped for peace until he asked them too. lol

[Sho]

I honestly found it weird that no one clapped for peace until he asked them too. lol

The irony of this is that if it was Trump, they would have been roaring with applause if he said the exact same thing.
