@Deleted User the Yucatán crater would have nothing on it.

you mean collision yeah?

@Deleted User it’s a pun. A bad one.

Sal pls

If Hillary runs again, Trump should throw her in jail mid-election

Actually, I shouldn't say "If" she is going to run again, the if is whether the D's will nominate her again. Try #3 "I got it this time guys"

Trump would actually have a harder time winning 2nd go round I think. The Dem base is unhinged, and Trump hasn't made good on his central campaign promise

@wail “The last two were practice runs!”

Sadly, you’re right on the last point

I'd still rather her than Bernie

He’s been great otherwise but I’m still not seeing full speed ahead on the wall

I understand the Swamp issue in DC

I would be more appeased if there was real movement to prosecute Hillary and other swamp creatures for endless law violations

At least then you could say, "We were trying to kill off the Swamp that was roadblocking the wall"

We'll see what the shakeup is like at the DOJ

Fair enough

the recount was late by 2 minutes so now it's being tossed out

>Whether the D's will nominate her again

That depends

Will she offer to pay the DNC's debt again?

Do they still owe her money is the question

Off hours chat? Anyone?

That whole voter fraud situation in Florida makes me think that the way my country runs elections isn't that bad of an idea.
Here, by law, every citizen has to vote.

@Euro looking for a green card That system would never work here (not sure if its a good idea at all), as it does not hold up with our freedoms.

One thing it makes you wonder, how would people vote if it were mandatory?

@RoadtoDawn
That's the question that is constantly being asked here.
Why force people to vote that don't give a damn or have no idea what is going on in politics.

It does create an overview of who is eligible to vote and who is turning up to vote though.

Granted we are a 500k country so it is a bit easier to overview that....

One part of voting is making a informed choice (if you care about it), and the freedom to abstain from voting if you feel none of the options follow your opinions/views

Or just don't care heh

True, that is being done here by having lots of empty sheets being entered every year.

You show up, you take your voting sheet, you go in your voting cabin and walk out with an empty sheet and put it in the box.

That's a horrible system in my view, just wasting peoples time.....

I agree with that, it has never taken me more than 15min to vote though. That's including me getting out of my house and going to the voting booth.

But I understand the argument of force here. And it is a constant discussion in our country too.

I am just saying that on the basis of what is happening in Florida, our system makes that a none issue.

I'm not sure any system we could make would leave out none issues, all of them are trial/errors. So i wouldn't outright dismiss any suggestions, but they have to coincide with our own values of how we run things (for the most part).

Making voting mandatory raises the same issues I have with people telling everyone else to vote. Its leftists most of the time that do it. Its organizations and companies that statistically lean left or service people that lean left shoving the idea down your throat

If the average American only gets news from the mainstream, voting results will be terribly skewed

Does the average person have any concept of news bias? Do they think all news stations are just generic organizations?

You should ask the news if the news has a bias!
