Don't worry. It'll be all right.

Repeat after me:

President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton
President Hillary Clinton


Who knows? Maybe by 2020 you guys will figure out how to win a Presidential election. I wouldn't count on it, but hey... it's not completely inconceivable...
Götterdämmerung is a great opera, Unsettomati And an even greater fantasy.

Default Every American should vote for Donald Trump

I predict that "every American" will not follow your instructions.

You'll get over it eventually.

I was around for the Eastern Europe transition in the late 80s/early 90s - some managed a peaceful transition ("Velvet revolution"), some didn't. In the 19th century, my old home country ended 200+ years of absolute monarchy by citizens walking through the street to the royal palace, asking that the king receive their representatives, and the king lending them a wing of the palace to write a constitution. (The kicker: They walked bare-headed, because they were going to the king.) Transitions don't have to be dramatic.

When people talk of a desire to burn the system down, I see less Minutemen and more my youth's Maoists - wild-eyed revolutionairies with not much of a plan except two agenda items: The existing system had to come down, and once that happened, they'd be the ones in charge.
Sadly, the ones who believe that they will be in charge when they torch the system to the ground are almost duped.

We have an outrageous system for changing how our nation is run. It will be happening again on Nov. 8.

For example, those who want to get money out of politics need to vote for those who oppose Citizens United.

There are good people out there running for office. Russ Feingold of Wisconsin is as close to Mr. Smith Goes to Washington as I've ever seen. Contribute to his campaign. Help him win this election.

If you believe in the Constitution, vote for those who support it.

The humor line:
"Every American should vote for Donald Trump
**************************************

If ever in the history of American, that the nation and its people have been insulted in every way that assaults the character and integrity of this nation, it has been and is being done by Trump, and the sad part is the nature and mentality of his supporters add an extra degree of extremity to the insult and character degradation of this nation and its people.

The only thing Trump has done that is and has been beneficial is to "Take Down The Republican Party" and showed us how he can install himself as the "One Man Republican Image" - kinda like the Dictator type presence, they have always wanted to be be.
This alone tells us in every way we can consider, that the nature and mentality of the Party has been a negative draw down against American for decades.
We've seen over the past 7.5 yrs Republican Gridlock, Republican Block and Tackle, and Republican Voter Fraud Games, Republican Racism pushed the tonality of a level not unlike the early to mid 1960's.

We've seen them push to defeat unions, fight wage increase, and try and destroy a medical program that basically helps the working poor and the poor. If it can be an act down to take away from the people, we've seen it engaged by the Republican System.

I know the State likes scaring us with tales of no roads being paved and commercial businesses setting up in (gasp!) residential areas but some of us do believe in ourselves and would manage just fine.
I doubt that very much. Few of you have any clue what things would be like. You watch "Shane" and imagine yourselves a bunch of strong, self-reliant frontiersman, but in reality, most of you would be lucky to last a year in a world where there was no strong central government.

We're ALL screwed if Hillary gets into power.

Her dream is open boarders FFS! Millions of people from the 3rd world will pour into your country. Look at were these people come from...WHEN YOU BRING THE 3RD WORLD TO THE 1ST WORLD, YOU DON'T GET THE 1ST WORLD - YOU GET THE 3RD WORLD...Americans are right on the edge of losing it all, your freedom, EVERYTHING.

Right now the US is one election away from becoming a banana republic.

Trump maybe a bitter pill for some, but He's your ONLY choice, so suck it up! Because Hillary is a suicide pill for your civilization as you know it.

The supporters of the Clinton's know not what they do.. they are supporting world government. Hillary said she wants hemispheric economy. They are working toward that now.. the transformation.

Hillary stated she is for reducing welfare and Social security saying this secretly, yet in public she says the opposite.That she will protect SS and welfare. Hillary the liar. Hillary wants to bring people down to the standards of the third world countries in order to achieve a one world government .

Hillary with her opened borders agenda wants to drive us into a economical calamity to usher in a new system designed to transform to globalism and a one world government .

Everything is in place now. Trump stands in the way . The people of the United States recognize what is happening and are supporting Trump. The corrupt system of power and greed , including the media, both party establishments, the UN , are supporting the globalism switch and trying to take out Trump and the power of the people who stand in the way of their agenda. .
The elites benefit greatly with a one world economy and the common Americans will have no advancement at all. The country is stagnating economically. The rich will fair much better when the bubble breaks in the stock market. They have
in place a stop loss order with their stockbroker. They benefit by a sell off before there is great loss .

Average Americans with a 401k will suffer great loss as they are not privy to the ins and outs of stocks. The wealthy know this . They have the best people guarding their fortunes while the small working people are kept in the dark.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer and Hillary doesn't give a damn!

Trump 2016
