I would vote for him if I thought he could pull it off, but I idea of the SC judges he might appoint is scary a thought.
Soon, I’ll post my farewell message. The end is starting to get close. There are many misconceptions about me, and before I go, to live with my ancestors on the steppes, I want to set the record straight.

In the Democratic Debate, Sanders said that he believed that Putin had been defeated in Ukraine, and he was getting involved in Syria to try and draw attention away from that failure with his people... :loon

Which means of course that Sanders is every bit as much a know-nothing in terms of understanding the realities of the global political situation as Ben Carson...

When it comes to grasping the facts of the international situation that we face, they make Barney the Purple Dinosaur look like Henry Kissinger...

The point of the image was not so much to support Sanders as to show the hypocrisy of the current Republican front-runner. I guess you could say it's a small detail...but it is something which should matter.

Yes, Bernie gets it right; the Donald gets it wrong.

Let's be clear - this is basic running for office 101. It *does* matter.

All HRC's items are American made, and where possible Union made. It says so for every item on her website. One of the tag lines is: "Everyday items made by everyday Americans."

That is exactly the same with her 2008 items (I checked the tags in my shirts and on the "Women for Hillary" sign I still have in my office). Same with Obama (checked tag in shirt). My posters/signs said the same thing. I know Howard Dean's did as well. And I'd bet the same with Bush, Rubio, etc. (ok- checked the Jeb! website and everything says "Made in America.")

Hell, even in local campaigns around here all of the signage and buttons are locally made at a union print shop and they typically say so - regardless of party affiliation.

More proof that Trump is an idiot.

Trump is such an idiot that it's hard to tell if a stupid story about him is true or not. However...
Claim: Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" caps are manufactured in China.

Image FALSE
It's true that a number of unofficial "Make America Great Again" hats are currently available for sale on Amazon, and some of those hats were indeed manufactured in China.

Donald Trump does sell "Make America Great Again" hats on his web site Donaldjtrump.com. According to the web site, all of the products are "proudly made in USA."


So....

People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.
