I watched Al's first video, the 13 minutes of Hilary being inconsistent and lying outright. Didn't have video patience for the others.

So far, Sanders seems the least terrible of all the terrible options.

Between Hilary and Trump, I would go for Hilary, because I think she would do less damage. As much as I abhor inconsistency, Trump is good at inciting mobs to hatred, and that's not something that I would want to be backing any policy decisions. If Hilary sells out to big banks and insurance companies, it won't be that different from what's already happening to the middle class and young people, getting totally screwed over financially. It's a risk, but even with corrupt insurance, I wouldn't want to see the USA lose the Affordable Care Act.

AMEN and seconded!  I'm no fan of clinton either, but a pragmatic moderate is far better than a fascist demagogue like trump or cruz!

Trump would be better than Hilary

On paper perhaps, but Trump could prove to be so unpredictable that no one know the damage he'll cause.
On paper, most anyone with any political experience at all would probably look better than Trump. That's correct, no one knows what he might do, because he hasn't ever done anything. Maybe enough people are sick of politicians and having never been one is playing out in his favor.

Or America could just come back home to my benevolent rule.    :dominatrix:

This is obviously the best solution by far.

  I agree!  I'm going to start practicing my curtsey!  :cbc:

It would make a Brexit very interesting.

Kids aren't as much of a loss as it might seem. Wonder what happens between then and childhood (besides school) that destroys their ability to think creatively and critically at the same time?

Fear?

Don't know. Not all kids stop thinking creatively and critically.

But some adults have really lost that bit. Once had that discussion in the beginning of the article you linked to with my neighbour, who wanted to send anyone "not belonging" back, despite all the pleasant people of non Dutch origin she knew. Every conversation with her, while I did the gardening for her came to that topic. So, once I asked further. I asked her what she thought about people with a mixed origin. She told they had to be culled. Tried to keep myself composed and asked if that was what she thought should be done with my husband and kids. She answered affirmative. Vehemently affirmative even. I answered her in a loud voice she should start with her grandson if she really meant that. We never spoke again. She moved away quite soon after that.

Thought it was scary that it is that easy for some people to think their strategies through till a point were culling people becomes the right thing to do. And then proclaim that without even blinking.

Well, with the primary results in from New York, it looks like we're stuck with the perpetual 7th grader and the whore of Wall Street.

I'm not so sure Trump will get to 1237. Even if he does, there will be a democratic president and her name is Hillary
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Yeah, unfortunately. Of course this is the second time she will be president, this time it's official though.

I predict that she will be a one term president though, people will see that she's just a puppet of Wall Street.

Now it's official. The :trump: is going to be the Republican candidate.

I'll just have to plug my nose, suppress the gag reflex and vote for the moron because what Hillary will do to the Supreme Court is even worse.
