If you look back, I have been on a soap box for years about how SC appointments are THE most important issue in a Presidential election. It shouldn't be, but thanks to Marbury, it is.

And to to repeat myself and others, we may not know with certainty what kind of people Trump will nominate, but we sure as heck know what kind Hillary will.

PS I heard yesterday that Trump intends to release a short list of people he will consider nominating. That will be of great interest to me.

That wasn't my original stance, but you'll see I started saying the same 2-3 weeks back, or whenever it was that Chelsea told an audience about the future of guns and her mother. Obviously I should have known anyway, but was caught up in everything else. But I do think it's more important this time around, if not equal at least.

And it's not just the 2nd. With a huge liberal leaning, can you imagine what other issues can be decided? Yikes. And even the liberals would have to admit that the conservative justices have ruled within the constitution, which is what the people expect. But that's not good enough for them, they want someone that will help them rewrite the COTUS.

Will not make a dent in the hatred that the Trump haters feed on IMHO.
I've asked a few people face to face, to site why they hate him so deeply--not a damn one could give any reason that made any damn sense for such pure hatred and revulsion..
I think many see that he will battle and are just against making waves or against fighting back!
Regardless of why and I suspect that most do not even know why they have such deep hatred, the responsibility of keeping HILARY OUT, SHOULD OVERSHADOW ANY IMAGINED, PROPAGANDIZED AND/OR HEARTFELT REVULSION OF THE MAN.
I DO NOT BUY FOR A DAMN SECOND THAT ANYBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND TRULY THINKS HE IS WORSE THAN HILARY.
ALMOST EVERY ONE OF HER NEGATIVES ARE DOCUMENTED FACTS ABOUT HER AND HER CAREER -WHEREAS TRUMPS ARE TOO OFTEN CITED AS WHAT PEOPLE - merely think- HE MAY DO IN THE FUTURE..

Totally illogical to ignore historic facts about her past documented actions and instead proclaim worse will come from TRUMP..

WHERE IS THAT DAMN CRYSTAL BALL THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE SEEING THE FUTURE WITH??

Worse than hillary???

Come on-- nothing in his past points to that judgment being true--nothing IMHO..

It's not about hating Trump, tyr. Not in my book anyway. I dislike the man and his personality. More importantly to me is what is best for this country. I was born and bred in it, and served it. As did my father, and his father, and his father, and his father. I'm a constitutionalist. I believe in THAT, not a political bureaucratic party. It's not about hating anyone. It's about watching our Constitution circle the bowl.

And I don't "merely think" I analyze. He is what he is. Alligator mouth with a bumblebee ass. He's out of his league. The gift of gab doesn't impress me. Heard it all before.

That's what I'm thinking right now. Whatever the feelings one has over the choices this year, that person is guaranteed to be gone in 4-8 years. I was initially worried about JUST Scalia being replaced, and the court swinging 5-4 in the other direction. But damn, imagine 7-2, or 6-3 in favor of the left? Even if one or 2 croak or whatever in 20 years, they would STILL have the court leaning left. The "damage" that can be done is astronomical.

Anyone thinking otherwise, or thinking the left places good judges out there - take a peek at the 9th circuit court of appeals. The things I've seen over the years boggles the mind. I don't follow them like I do politics, but when such courts are driven by the left, you might as well appoint monkeys.

I fully understand the hesitation some have with Trump, or the outright not voting for him. But with that said, talk of him running for the GOP, and then turning around and nominating a liberal judge, just doesn't add up for me in the slightest bit. Not to mention, unless something were to drastically change in the senate, a nomination as such likely wouldn't pass anyway. But I have ZERO doubt that he will nominate someone on the right, and likely a choice made by MANY involved on the right. I think some high ranking republicans will be involved in any prior discussions before anyone is nominated, just as I'm confident that Obama had some help in his choice.

Long time and philosophically conservative presidents have ended up with approval of judges that by all measures should have been 'conservatives' that ended up anything but. The Chief Justice being one case in point. With that said, I'd settle for someone who actually finds the constitution itself limiting, they could be liberal or conservative personally, but the Constitution is what their decisions should be based upon.

My point was directed at/about those that can not even explain why they do not support him nor why they hate him like he slapped their mothers.
I have no problem with any that made an informed and researched decision on the matter.

I think that bottom line, those supporting Trump have a 'gut feeling' he'll do what he's said-even when he goes back and forth.

I think those that don't support him, have a 'gut feeling' that he may well do some of the things he's said-though he often walks those back.

It does come down to what 'your gut' says, as he doesn't have a consistent record on anything.

And it appears the #Never_Clinton is getting rolling along...

-----


The 'Never Clinton' Campaign

Meet the Bernie Sanders supporters who say they won’t switch allegiances, no matter what happens in the general election.

Loyal fans of Bernie Sanders have a difficult decision to make. If Hillary Clinton faces off against Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election, legions of Sanders supporters will have to decide whether to switch allegiances or stand by Bernie until the bitter end.

At least some supporters of the Vermont senator insist they won’t vote for Clinton, no matter what. Many view the former secretary of state with her deep ties to the Democratic establishment as the polar opposite of Sanders and his rallying cry of political revolution. Throwing their weight behind her White House bid would feel like a betrayal of everything they believe.

These voters express unwavering dedication to Sanders on social media, deploying hashtags like NeverClinton and NeverHillary, and circulating petitions like www.wontvotehillary.com, which asks visitors to promise “under no circumstances will I vote for Hillary Clinton.” It’s garnered more than 56,500 signatures so far. Many feel alienated by the Democratic Party. They may want unity, but not if it means a stamp of approval for a political status quo they believe is fundamentally flawed and needs to be fixed.

But he's bringing in record numbers on the right, so apparently hasn't pissed off everyone on the right. And doing better than Clinton in the majority of states as well. As usual, it'll come down to the swing states. But it's not like Trump is someone everyone hates and everyone will be avoiding - as the actual vote count and turnouts speak an entirely different story. And at the same time, Clinton's numbers are also down from the last time she ran.

I can only selfishly admit how THANKFUL I feel....knowing my time on this Earth is growing short, and I won't be here to help MY FAMILY survive IF SUCH A DISASTER happens to the U.S.A. with the election of people who are sworn to destroy this nation.

I have asked to be cremated when I die, and to join fellow Vietnam/Gulf War veterans in ARLINGON. Yes....for those who may wonder. Because of my time on active duty (30 years). I am eligible to be in ARLINGTON. That is where all of the Americans who LOVED this nation...AS IT WAS before Hillary, and Obama took their service seriously.

All of us on this board who honestly Love America without blowing smoke up someone's butt, pretending to be true Citizens...should fear what will happen IF Hillary does win by the perpetual Hatred, and Stupidity of Uneducated, Selfish people.

Sorry, but thats been pitched ever since he first tossed his hat in the ring.
It was just as wrong back then just as it is wrong now and do not forget hillary's negatives!
Trump inspires people that want obama shit stopped, Hillary only inspires ffing idiots , morons, leftists and damn fools.
And Bernie's supporters are going to reject her .
You are welcome to believe your number theory but its flat out wrong.
Trump just kept on gaining steam, getting record votes, record turn outs, record attendance at his rallies-defeat all his oponents(including Bush) and yet you think hilary that can barely even beat Sanders is a Goliath. :confused:--Tyr

Regardless of why and I suspect that most do not even know why they have such deep hatred, the responsibility of keeping HILARY OUT, SHOULD OVERSHADOW ANY IMAGINED, PROPAGANDIZED AND/OR HEARTFELT REVULSION OF THE MAN.
I DO NOT BUY FOR A DAMN SECOND THAT ANYBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND TRULY THINKS HE IS WORSE THAN HILARY.
ALMOST EVERY ONE OF HER NEGATIVES ARE DOCUMENTED FACTS ABOUT HER AND HER CAREER -WHEREAS TRUMPS ARE TOO OFTEN CITED AS WHAT PEOPLE - merely think- HE MAY DO IN THE FUTURE..

Totally illogical to ignore historic facts about her past documented actions and instead proclaim worse will come from TRUMP..

WHERE IS THAT DAMN CRYSTAL BALL THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE SEEING THE FUTURE WITH??

Worse than hillary???

Come on-- nothing in his past points to that judgment being true--nothing IMHO..

AS I TOLD MY NEPHEW'S WIFE(SHE HATES TRUMP), LOOK INTO THAT CRYSTAL BALL AND GIVE ME THE NEXT LOTTERY NUMBERS PLEASE!!---TYR

Sorry, but thats been pitched ever since he first tossed his hat in the ring.
It was just as wrong back then just as it is wrong now and do not forget hillary's negatives!
Trump inspires people that want obama shit stopped, Hillary only inspires ffing idiots , morons, leftists and damn fools.
And Bernie's supporters are going to reject her .
You are welcome to believe your number theory but its flat out wrong.
Trump just kept on gaining steam, getting record votes, record turn outs, record attendance at his rallies-defeat all his oponents(including Bush) and yet you think hilary that can barely even beat Sanders is a Goliath. :confused:--TyrI know it would make a wonderful story for you.But the reality check is coming.First, do you think Bernie's people are going to go to Trump? If you do, then there is no need to discuss it with you any further,you've not only drunk the kool-aid you've drank the whole pitcher of kook-aid.Secondly,there are more than 47% of the free shitters this time around,Obama has created another 10% since '12.Trump has alienated the colored folks vote, largely Latinos, that is a fact.That only leaves us ,those of us who work so the free shitters can have their free shit.The conservative straight anglo vote is a endangered species.

I'll agree with your assessment of the political situation. I think Trump doesn't have a chance. At the same time, I'm going to be a hypocrite here and stick my nose in. Tyr's a good ol' boy. We don't always agree. But there's no call to attack him personally. We, as a group, need to get off each other's throats over this election. It's lost unless a whole bunch of people change their minds. Hasn't happened last 2 elections so I expect it ain't happening again. The naysayers will stay home, and the people that think they're standing on some principle will vote 3rd party.

My stand on principle is protecting what's left of our Constitution. We can't lose the Supreme Court. That's what is at stake here. Screw the Presidency. There's no balance in our government as there is supposed to be and the Supreme Court has unchecked power. THAT is what is at stake here.

He'll vanquish all enemies when our allies pony up all the monies they should have been paying, otherwise he'll pull out of...well someplaces. Meanwhile he'll use the freed up money to restore our infrastructure, that will be beautiful, the most beautiful.

He'll get rid of all the illegals-well other than the bestest, when they go back and come back or something like that.

In the meanwhile, going to get a minimum wage hike, unclear how much, but that's only until it won't be necessary anymore-cause wages are just going to rise like they never have.

I think a shitload of Bernie's supporters will stay home or do something else, which is also great for Trump, although of course not as good as a vote for him.

--

The 'Never Clinton' Campaign

Loyal fans of Bernie Sanders have a difficult decision to make. If Hillary Clinton faces off against Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election, legions of Sanders supporters will have to decide whether to switch allegiances or stand by Bernie until the bitter end.

At least some supporters of the Vermont senator insist they won’t vote for Clinton, no matter what. Many view the former secretary of state with her deep ties to the Democratic establishment as the polar opposite of Sanders and his rallying cry of political revolution. Throwing their weight behind her White House bid would feel like a betrayal of everything they believe.

These voters express unwavering dedication to Sanders on social media, deploying hashtags like NeverClinton and NeverHillary, and circulating petitions like www.wontvotehillary.com, which asks visitors to promise “under no circumstances will I vote for Hillary Clinton.” It’s garnered more than 56,500 signatures so far. Many feel alienated by the Democratic Party. They may want unity, but not if it means a stamp of approval for a political status quo they believe is fundamentally flawed and needs to be fixed.

“Just pack up your revolution and go home? Really? That’s not going to happen,” said Tara Margolin, a 50-year-old Sanders supporter and self-described Democrat who lives in Los Angeles. She dismissed the idea that Sanders voters might coalesce behind Clinton. “She would cement in place everything we are fighting against. I could never in good conscience vote for Hillary Clinton.”

Actually Johnson is the one of the three that actually has put limits on abortions-what he does stand for is more freedom for the individual-even if they are wrong.

As I said earlier, he doesn't have a chance of winning and if it's any consolation it does appear he takes more votes from Hillary than Trump.

Yeah and it was Crin that has abortion as his #1 issue, not I. Not because it's unimportant, just that for now it's at the federal level and determined by SCOTUS. Someday it might change, though not in my lifetime I'd guess.

Not one of the candidates would agree with Crin's view on abortion. That is a non-argument.

As far as legalizing heroin I wouldn't be too worried about that either, not going to see Congress or the states arguing for legalization, even CA.

I'm personally against abortion. I consider it murder. But I don't have to answer to God for anything I'm not in control of. I have to answer for my own actions. I voted that marriage was between a man a woman and it won. Then the Supreme Court has tied it up in court.

So the stances that a candidate has, that they more than likely won't be able to touch "personally" once in office, aren't make or break factors? I see a fair amount of issues, but not mattering either because it's left to the states, or one assumes that the president won't have anything to do with it.

Are these things also true for all of the other candidates? For example, if it's something that Trump simply won't be deciding while in office, just as above, then his stance on the issue isn't quite as important? Not that they are unimportant, mind you...

Because there are a LOT of stances of Trumps that I have seen argued and beat up on, and things that he simply won't be controlling or deciding if in office, just as above. If so, that's an awful lot of negative issues folks have had with Trump, that shouldn't matter as much then since many of them are things he won't be controlling or deciding, just as above.

I've had several close friends die of heroin overdoses, and I also had to watch the lives of their families destroyed. Moving such drugs even an inch towards legalization is just insane. There are ZERO benefits with heroin and ONLY a downside, eventually. And having folks that high in office, making it sound as if it's no big deal, sends what kind of message to folks today? Heroin isn't something to be messed with, not even one time. IMO, even discussion of it being legalized is irresponsible.

For the most part I would agree, if someone wants to ruin their life, take drugs, so be it. But it shouldn't be something held out by the government, to be promoted, to be placed in pharmacies or talk of effing prescriptions!

I think the illogical things he speaks of are some that stand firmly against abortion, condemn Trump for flip flopping on the issue, state they don't believe what comes out of his mouth today as to what his stance is - but then have zero issue then going to a guy who openly supports it. Trump is not nice to women - so let's legalize prostitution. I believe the illogical stems from what many around the internet'sphere are willing to support now, after condemning others for what they were crazy enough to support about Trump. I've been asked time and time again what happened to the "conservative" part of me, based on supporting Trump, and some of the stances he has.

...The more this country gets Diluted with Illegals and those who dont want to conform to the American ways and rule of law..soon there wont be anymore America...Never forget Illegals and their eggs are future Democrat voters...and they will weasel their way into Government and start making their own rules....Deporting these (tax-payer-money-sucking) cacaroaches and their Eggs..cutting all benefits will help...I am so tired of hearing.."we need to get the "Latino" vote or black vote....Fuck that! I just want votes from AMERICANS...Open borders and no voter regulation means Democrat votes...

I am glad Trump is the Last Man standing...he is the best man for the job when dealing with Illegal Parasites and muslim terrorist roaches...There is no half way crap with these cancers...

It's not illogical, tyr. I can completely understand people not liking ot trusting Trump.

It IS non-strategical thinking. Everyone's so busy with their likes and wants they don't get their needs. Want and need are not the same things.

Sounds familiar:

"You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, you get what you need"

I've had several close friends die of heroin overdoses, and I also had to watch the lives of their families destroyed. Moving such drugs even an inch towards legalization is just insane. There are ZERO benefits with heroin and ONLY a downside, eventually. And having folks that high in office, making it sound as if it's no big deal, sends what kind of message to folks today? Heroin isn't something to be messed with, not even one time. IMO, even discussion of it being legalized is irresponsible.

For the most part I would agree, if someone wants to ruin their life, take drugs, so be it. But it shouldn't be something held out by the government, to be promoted, to be placed in pharmacies or talk of effing prescriptions!

I would add that even if drugs are legalized, desperate addicts will still commit crimes to obtain them. So those who argue that legalizing will make drug-related crime go away need to rethink.

The history of heroin is that it was created to treat addiction on opium!

We see how that worked out.

I saw a potential All-American wrestler wreck himself using heroin
to keep his weight down. He was a frat brother and good friend.
It took him two years to recover but he was not the same physically.

I had a friend who was about the loveliest girl I had ever seen. I asked her
why she was not into being a model instead of working as a waitress. She
told me that she had tried it briefly but saw that most of the other girls
would shoot up heroin between their toes to maintain their slender figures.
She quit being a model after that because she did not want to associate with
that kind of lifestyle.

So...legalize it? Stock it in pharmacies? MY ASS!

So the stances that a candidate has, that they more than likely won't be able to touch "personally" once in office, aren't make or break factors? I see a fair amount of issues, but not mattering either because it's left to the states, or one assumes that the president won't have anything to do with it.

Are these things also true for all of the other candidates? For example, if it's something that Trump simply won't be deciding while in office, just as above, then his stance on the issue isn't quite as important? Not that they are unimportant, mind you...

Because there are a LOT of stances of Trumps that I have seen argued and beat up on, and things that he simply won't be controlling or deciding if in office, just as above. If so, that's an awful lot of negative issues folks have had with Trump, that shouldn't matter as much then since many of them are things he won't be controlling or deciding, just as above.

I personally haven't argued much on Trump's positions-something you used to get upset about. From the get go, my issues with him had to do with his behaviors and the fact that on nearly all important areas he was a liberal, until he changed his mind. Yeah, I had problems with believing a man well into his late 50's-60's suddenly went conservative.

My issues indeed were the hints as he went along that he wasn't the conservative that he claimed to be. No one seems to have an issue that within 24 hours of becoming 'presumptive nominee' he walked back on minimum wage and even his own tax plan, that you were so sold on. But I guess those are irrelevant?

Anywho, not a problem with whom you or I or anyone supports, we will all make up our own minds. For the most part we have.

Gunny speaks of voting for 'what we need,' I do believe that is what I am doing, always have. I don't need the president of the US to be my daddy, fight the bad members of Congress, tell the media to go to hell. I can do that.

What I can't do is keep the government out of my business, confiscate more and more of our monies for their charities or causes like Title IX, or send our troops into harms way for purposes less than winning. I need him/her to do what the Constitution calls for and back away from those issues they have no business in being. Yes, that takes knowing what the hell that document says and means, every bit as much as knowing what the Bible says to those that claim to believe. I don't 'need' a president that has an 'R' or a 'D' next to their name to figure out what they are saying and know that is not what is needed to maintain a Republic.

I didn't say anything about legalizing them. But I've watched some dunbass sh*t over the years. For instance:

Did you know the Germans invented steroids in the 30s as a medical advancement? It was to heal burn victims. Yet, WE revile them because WE abuse them. And WE make the situation worse with dumb laws and MSM vilification and ignorance. It's just another case of normal people can't have anything nice because of the abusers and intolerant perception. Used properly, they're no worse than anything else. But say that word "steroids" and people flip because of some BS caused in the 80 by a bunch of idiots that abused them.

It ain't someone else's fault and it ain't the fault of a pill that YOU made a choice. Don't come whining to me because you want to play in traffic and get hit by a car.

I've never gotten upset with anyone solely argued Trump's positions. I've never attacked anyone who did so, or disagreed on candidates. I've asked for proof of these things repeatedly, but whatever. I guess folks just have a difference in opinion over what upset means, or what attack means, or what proof means.

As to Trump being a liberal. Perhaps he did have liberal positions in the past. You aren't convinced that he has changed on any of them Johnson and the issues I have spoken up about ARE his stances, no bones about it.

Trump said he was willing to look into or hear people out on minimum wage. I have no issue with a slight increase, I have a serious issue with the dummies thinking they deserve a doubling of the minimum wage. As to his overall tax plan, I'll have to read the specifics of what he is changing, from what he originally submitted, to his apparent current stance. From what I have read thus far this morning, I haven't seen anything harmful. But this is still something that will ultimately go through congress, so not as much of a need to worry about Trump. :)

Worrying about the appointment of the next SC judge, and the thought of perhaps, one, two or maybe 3 more over the next 8 years (possibly), I would vote for a dead rat on the right that has the best chance of beating Hillary if that's what it took. My stance on that has not only evolved from the past, but from this election. I honestly didn't give the SC judgeS the importance it deserves. And I was only thinking singularly, and not the possibility of more over the years. In the past, I've voted for a candidate that was no longer in the running come election day. I was willing to think about 3rd or staying home at times throughout the past year, depending on how the flow of things played out. But things keep coming back to these judges, and the possibility of more than just one. The thought of Hillary putting in someone much more liberal than what Obama nominated is scary. The thought of seeing her disgusting bloated face being smug as she nominates a 3rd or 4th judge is downright scary. And I can't even imagine what that could potentially do to the country. And NO, I'm NOT trying to talk anyone out of their positions. I'm explaining how I've personally evolved on that issue. With that said, I've said from day one that I don't care if someone chooses to vote otherwise, that is absolutely their right to do so.

I agree. There are quite a few drugs that are great for folks in need, but can easily be abused and then it gets a bad name. Maybe back in the day there were reasons to think about medicinal uses for heroin, but no longer. It's nothing more than the cheapest opiates known to man, with many safer alternatives one can get through legal means. People start out by getting hooked on the expensive pills, but once their doctor cuts them off, or they can't afford the prices any longer, they move over the the much cheaper heroin, which gives you a much stronger and longer lasting high. And if you play your cards right, it will kill you. :(

I'm not defending mainlining heroin. But we legally dispense opium thousands of times a day. Who is at fault? The drug? Or the people that abuse them? You know I'm quite well versed in substance abuse. Nobody twisted my arm and made me run to the liquor store. It was a choice I, no one else, made. I have no idea about heroin. I've never even seen any.

If people want to kill themselves just die on the side of the road please instead of blocking traffic.
