If that were true, she'd be polling at more than 4%. Think about it. Moreover, every poll on this topic that I have seen has at least 70% of former Bernie supporters voting for Hillary. Some were into the 80's.

It's dangerous to look at FB page to draw any conclusions about level of support. . . . . apparently, "all positive" comments on the Trump page do not translate anywhere close in polling since Hillary is crushing Trump in every existing professional scientific poll.

Men who respect women.


Men who wouldn't tolerate a Presidential candidate behaving like a 10-year old. A few examples of the ways Trump behaves like a 10-year old: 99% of his tweets sound like they're written by a 10-year old; boasting about the unthinkable with Billy Bush; actually doing those things he bragged about; interrupting countless times during both debates -- "Wrong.. Wrong.. That makes me smart"; walking around in circles during the 2nd debate and stalking Clinton's space. If I saw a 70 year old man doing that at a bus stop, behaving creepily and walking around in circles like that, I'd assume he was coked up. Everything he's said and done over the past year and a half would make any grown man concerned.


If he was applying for a position as a Sunday school teacher or a pastor, it would make sense to me why people would accept him.. From my standpoint, he exemplifies the bizarre and suspicious behavior I've come to expect of many pastors as I grew up in a very conservative evangelical family and visited many churches. But this dude's running for the highest office in the world. Is he really the role model your kids want to look up to for the next 4 years as the President of the United States? Any self respecting grown man who has any ounce of dignity would never support a con like Trump.

While I don't mind the thought of that. Honestly I think enough Bernie supporters will vote for her to put her over. If fact quote me at 60% to 70% of them will vote for her. You can flog me later if I'm wrong. Really could careless.

I've already explained Ad nauseam why the will already.

P.S. Bernie supporters aren't all millennial "basement dwellers".

Ashoka...no. Granted I really haven't watched rebels all that much....I don't see Ashoka ever reaching or ever wanting to reach the level needed with in politics to achieve the goal of being president/Supreme Chancellor. Honestly not many Jedi would probably make good/effective political leaders in general. At least from my point of you most of them want to be teachers, scholars, or warriors. I mean Kenobi could possibly be a canidate Since he is the "negotiator". But I don't think he would enjoy being stuck in Congress and or the White House. Some others maybe you could consider from the Jedi order. Maybe dooku (before he fell to the Darkside), Thome, and Valenthyne Farfalla. other than that off the top of my head I can't think of anybody from the order that would thrive in the position of president or even as a representative or senator.

As to maul. It's a little confusing to me. I really took his attempt to grab for power in the clone wars As more as creating a criminal syndicate as opposed to raising a actually political rival to both the Republic and trade Federation. Maybe eventually he would've created a real political dynamo on Mandalore. But sidious cut maul reign short. So will never really know how good of a political leader he could have been.

Honestly though with dark Vader....joking aside about the election....which deserves to be mocked......Vader would've made a terrible president. he might've passed as a despot dictator. But even still.....he only a warrior at heart. It has very little in the way of wide scoping politics. I mean really....even Sidious as a ruler after the "grand plan" was executed. Was not much of a ruler as emperor. He basically worked on becoming more powerful in the force and pretty much nothing else. A lot of the ruling came from Mas Amedda, Wilhuff Tarkin and the other Moffs. So perhaps Tarkin signs should be placed in yards instead of Vader ones. But let face Vader icon and Tarkin.....not so much. Oh and just throw it out there...darth plagueis "the wise" would've made a much better Emperor than Palpatine.

Good thing you didn't bet actual money or you would have lost. All you had to do is take the time to look through the comments. You would have seen that he does have his detractors. However, the numbers are much, much smaller than Hillary's FB page detractors.
