Real 2016 election news...

[afwjam]

Has anyone said anything remotely reasonable worth discussing intelligently? Gary Johnson, even the fuck up McAfee was saying intelligent and reasonable things... Tired of it feeling like a used car lot around here full of sleazy spray tanned sales men, "second rate purveyors of someone else's ideas".

It just goes to reinforce something that I learned in 2007: people don't care about intelligent discussion. Which is why Ron Paul never stood a chance.

Or Rand. I loved watching his speech at that highschool today. America is losing and is led by losers.

I've felt this way before. Especially about Gingrich.

I'm enjoying Trump news as a farce, nothing more, like watching something fall apart or something out of Atlas Shrugged.

I may reread Atlas Shrugged again, which in that case, I suppose it will be more intelligent then the current news.

Don't forget, voters like a POTUS candidate with great hair. That's important too.

Yeah baby! That's what I'm talking about!

I haven't been following Johnson 2016 too closely, but the two main things he's gotten press for saying so far is:

1. calling Donald Trump a "pussy" four times.
2. that a President Johnson would ban burqas and sharia law.

Yes, sort of:

[h=1]GOP leaders roll out 100-day strategy to derail Trump[/h]New York Times March 19, 2016The names of a few well-known conservatives have been offered up in recent days as potential third-party standard-bearers, and William Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard, has circulated a memo to a small number of conservative allies detailing the process by which an independent candidate could get on general-election ballots across the country.

Among the recruits under discussion are Tom Coburn, a former Oklahoma senator who has told associates that he would be open to running, and Rick Perry, the former Texas governor who was suggested as a possible third-party candidate at a meeting of conservative activists Thursday in Washington.

Well, they're failing miserably.

Please lets keep the talk of Hair and the things under it out of this thread. Lets talk about actual issues here. Maybe a mod can move the unrelated posts and merge them into another pointless thread.

I suppose when you use the phrase "fuck up" when you refer to McAfee you mean "totally fucking awesome I wish I could snort bathsalts off of womens breastesses and shoot .50 cals like he does?"

That's been true since the Dawn of Man, libertarians need to find a way to "dangle the shiny object" in front of the average joe, then lead them to something better, the herd will never wake up and stop being led.

 

[afwjam]

I like the idea of a 10% Liberty minority setting them free and the people figure it out for themselves. We don't have to fight or lead the easily led majority, just the other small minority of active supporters of tyrannical authoritarian types who do want to lead them.

Well, they're failing miserably.

Just imagine the merkin that one could make with that mane.
