So what would you think of a shared Presidency between Clinton and Trump?
Clinton works Monday Wednesday and Friday.
Trump plays Tuesday Thursday and Saturday.
They alternate Sundays.
Yeah. Ewwwwhhh!
Maybe they would cancel each other out. ? !
(?) You left out one candidate

You sew the head of one onto the other and I'll vote for it. |
|

it's funny how the quality of candidates demonstrably
worsened since the smoked filled rooms, and yet everyone
thinks the problem is campaign finance. |
|
| |
Ah, [theircompetitor], I knew I would find you here. |
|
| |
The quality has changed ? I thought that the lowest common denominator rule still prevailed. |
|
| |
One could make the argument that honest primaries
provide the lowest common denominator twice. |
|
| |
I would suggest, however, that mass media has a lot
more to do with the problem than the absence of smoke
filled rooms. At this point, sound bites and popularity
contests matter a lot more than a written platform, and
the cost of presenting a major campaign through
advertising means that individuals start raising money for
their next campaign as soon as they finish the first.
Combined with instant feedback in the form of polls and
e-mail counts means that the more extreme but vocal
groups on both sides tend to hold a disproportionate
share of the candidates/politicians attention. |

I'm moving in with po if Trump even gets one day in office as
President here. HElllooo London, Goodbye idiotic America,
if that be the case. |
|
| |
Ah, yes, the biggest problem with democracy is that
other people get a vote |
|
| |
Forget London. I'm going to either Sydney or the Canary
Islands, where the weather doesn't suck. |
|
| |
Trump is the worst candidate, except for all the others. |
|
| |
As [MechE] alludes, the primaries have effectively become a big reality show, so it should come as no surprise that Trump is leading. (I think Perry is going to get voted off next episode.) |
|

sorting your room out as we speak, blissy... |

// the biggest problem with democracy is that other people get a vote // |
|
| |
No, the biggest problem is that people who are wrong get a vote. The ones that agree with you are fine. |

Pop quiz -- if you take all the money out of politics (as if),
would celebrity play a smaller, or bigger role in getting
elected? |
|
| |
However bizarrely this election is going, I'm predicting a
surge in shamelessly self-centered "name-id" candidates. A
Congress full of rappers is on the way -- think about how
much more entertaining C-Span is going to get. |
|
| |
I think 2020 is high time for my 'Jon Stewart for President'
write-in campaign. |
|
| |
It would be fun to see Trump and Putin in a room together.
Perhaps one with stretching racks and chainstocks... |
|
| |
I think there should be a basic test, and then perhaps divide
up the vote by issue. If you can pass 'x' questions about
current immigration law, then you can vote on immigration
policy. |

The clown and the devil. Alfred E Neuman can be Secretary
of State. |
