CA Dems Please Chime In: 2020; Kamala Harris, Issues (generation, fence, cost)

[2011KTM530]

I’m a Libertarian, kinda.
I actually like Tulsi Gabbard, seems level headed and intelligent. Don’t agree with everything she says but I don’t agree with a lot of the Democratic platform. Biden was showing his age at the last debate, reminded me of my dad, kind of befuddled. Kamala Harris slept her way to the top. Nothing wrong with that, lots of women do it. I voted for Bernie last election because Hillary is a screechy New York liberal and Trump is a two face, lying sack of chit New York salesman. Not much of a choice but I did vote. As for the rest of the Democrats running, they are unknowns to me.

Write in?


Bernie Sanders set records in three states that counted his write-ins: in California he got 79,341; the previous high was 58,412 for Eugene McCarthy in 1976.

Yeah maybe that’s what the poster meant.

Harris is an abomination. Warren speak with forked tongue and Biden is well demented.

Of the Democrats, my vote will go to Tulsi Gabbard. She has workable solutions for most of the issues. She is level headed and someone i feel we can trust.

The restaurants are mainly for tourists. When we went to McDonald's there we had to pay for ketchup and request ice. They do have good perks like lots of vacation time, free college and health care but the pendulum swings to the other side where they have it very hard to survive in a way we feel is normal on other things.

One of my best friends lives in Copenhagen, and I've visited him a number of times. He is a very well off professional, and doesn't feel the need to have a car and doesn't have one. However, he does eat out quite often.

Bikes rule in Copenhagen and they divide the streets 3 ways when possible.

1.Car lanes separated from Bike lane by a curb so no car can enter it.


2. Bike lane separated from the car and walking lane so the bikes stay in their space.



3. Walking/sidewalks are bike free except when being parked outside building.


The older streets are different because they are narrow and in some no cars at all. People riding bikes are careful and people walking are. They get along quite well. While riding with friends all over the country not one driver was over the s[peed limits. I was told some do drive over it, but I never saw even 1.



Eating out is expensive and most don't, rather they eat at home. Meals are very high priced. I was just at the market and a package of 6 cokes were priced the same as 1ea. 8oz bottle of coke in Copenhagen. More costly in some places. They do drink a lot of beer at home and in cafes. Just there.

My relatives are farmer types and not wealthy at all. They don't live near Copenhagen either. I haven't been there in a long time maybe eating out is getting more common place.
