2020 Elections

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Beto O'Rourke Calls Trump A Racist Islamophobe In Defense Of Ilhan Omar

No idea if he's as progressive as some, but I am enjoying his rhetoric.
    Beto O'Rourke most likely would call Bruce Pearl a racist islamophobe too.

    Democrat Rep. Seth Moulton to run for president in 2020: 'I'm not a socialist. I'm a Democrat.'

    ... On Monday, he sought to set himself apart from the ever-growing pack of Democratic candidates, many of whom have more Washington experience and star power, saying on "GMA," "I'm not a socialist. I'm a Democrat. And I want to make that clear. Maybe that's a differentiator in this race."

    He used health care as an example.

    "I think I'm the only candidate who actually gets single payer health care," he said, adding that he's on a single payer plan himself through the Department of Veterans Affairs. "And I'll tell you, it's not perfect. So if I'm elected, I'm not going to force you off your private health care plan." ...
    Good, more con Dems to siphon votes from Biden.

    I have decided to run for president and I will introduce myself as "Nobody." My campaign slogans will include "Nobody gives a shit" "Nobody can fix it" "Nobody cares about you" "Nobody knows what happened" and "Nobody but me." My running mate will be "Somebody" and Somebody will cover for me when needed. I did see today that the Ukrainian comedian won the presidency there in a landslide. Nobody saw it coming.

    :D But it's been done. I even attended some campaign events.

    Nobody for President

    "Nobody's perfect."
    "Nobody should have too much power."

    And, already is being done.

    Well, I don't really know Anybody but if he's anywhere close to Somebody it may work. As long as he realizes that Nobody is better than Anybody.

    It's a delicate situation. You would not want to be accused of racism.

    He subscribes to Abbie Hoffman's old dictum that if you don't want it on tv, just write "fuck" on it. :clap:
    Nah, I actually don't know why; probably a vulgar disparagement of my opponent.

    Help! I need Somebody
    Help! Not just Anybody
    :lol:
    Help! You know I need Someone
    There's another option for you.
    I never needed anybody's help in any way
    Well then, maybe you don't, either.

    Or not:
    Now I find I've changed my mind ...

    Help me if you can, I'm feeling Down
    Who is she?
    I'm feeling Down
    Again?
    I never needed Anybody's help in any way
    Now they're just sounding defensive about it.
    I'm feeling Down
    We get it already.

    Yep. One of the reasons I chose Somebody is because of his already established base of support; he's been perennially popular with lots of people.....at the end of Jimmy Buffet's song "Cheeseburger in Paradise" he shouts out "Somebody give me a cheeseburger" and let's not forget the haunting Elton John song "Somebody Saved my Life Tonight" but there has been some competition; most notably Neil Young's tune in support of Everybody (an obscure octogenarian from Montana) "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere." We are confident in a win.

    Have you two sorted out who will lead the ticket then? The last thing we need is a repeat of the 2016 floor fight where both of your supporters were chanting and screaming, "Nobody is over Somebody," at each other.
