Dane, honestly, if you hear the commercials on TV, they talk as if Trump would be the only one holding the key to our nukes? Which is false.

I don't believe I'm taking it too literally, but they are deceiving voters by making that statement....

and I've heard them say this in other elections to....

But hey! We have a generation or so of low information voters so it's not much of a surprise that a low information candidate is making such headway.

I am hiring a LEADER. Leaders know when the information is important. Since we have not launched a nuclear strike since 1945, a simple "Google search" is all he needs.

I'm more worried about Hitliary not pressing the button than I am of Trump pressing it.

yeah well, folks my point here is the fact that they are using our weapons systems to vocalize how inadequate, both candidates are, by saying neither one of them cannot be trusted with "The Button"

Do they know, that the people of this country realize, that there isn't just one button, but a set of keys to those buttons, that two people have?

In other words, the other person also has to approve of using the button.

I'm wondering how many people don't know that?
