Large Majority of Americans Want to End Electoral College
  • I think a bigger component in making this happen is instituting ranked choice voting. Political parties are private institutions that have amassed entirely too much power over our country. Sure, we can vote but electoral college or popular voting and we still are stuck with a candidate selected by one of two private institutions. These private entities are able to control elected officials who stray too far from the party line. As long as large political parties control the candidates our vote holds less power.

  • Wait a minute, we've been going about this all the wrong way!
  • I am fully against this booby trapping war crime regime but the problem with your first options is that pagers don't transmit like phones do. That means there would be no way to remotely aquire the GPS or other saved data undetected.

  • Biden says it’s ‘time to outlaw’ AR-15 after Trump assassination attempt
  • I remember taking an anthropology class years ago where the professor was attempting to explain how difficult it is to overcome our own personal bias. Her example was statements like "How did so and so win the election, nobody I know voted for them". The point was we are more isolated than we realize because even within our own cities we tend to interact with only specific groups. My point is just because it doesn't exists within your bubble doesn't mean it's not widespread.

  • If you think that then you have no idea what would come with the threat of a national gun ban. The right might be fired up but with a possible ban not one of them would miss voting day. Also, there are enough left wingers who are against banning guns to irrevocably damage the party. My point is there is no reason to even talk about this hot button issue. It's not at the top of almost any left voters list right now so it won't motivate anyone on that side. It was such a careless misstep that should have been completely avoidable. Talk about it After the election. Let's pick a candidate who can do better.

  • What an idiot. Does he not realize talking about banning guns is the number one way to motivate right wingers? The US is NOT going to ban guns especially with the current Supreme Court. This is an example of his old team running old plays that haven't been successful since the 90s. He needs to go before he causes any more damage to his party.

  • The only way we lose is if we stand divided.
  • Biden will drop out. Full stop. It's the people still defending him that are delaying the inevitable and lowering the chances of a Democrat president. Anyone who thinks Biden has the best chance to win is living in an isolated echo chamber at this point. This is the closest real world example to The Emperor Has No Clothes that I've ever seen.

  • Secret Service notified as Alex Jones hosts show with 'assassinate Biden' in title
  • Ya know he may be working angle here. His whole life is over and he knows it. I'll bet he figures if he goes crazy all in on Trump that maybe he could land some political support in getting his conviction overturned if Trump wins the election. Considering his current situation its probably the only chance he has.
