As a Hoosier, I'm excited about this possibility.

Or indeed not by most Democrats. He's f**cking crazy. His demeanor screams cranky "get-off-my-yard" old man.
Sadly his policies scream "I am so much better than any of you other Democrat idiots".
I, for one, stopped to look to the two big parties (Repucrats and Dempublicans, I think they are called) for intelligent and good policies.
Though, at the moment Democrats seem to want to do a little less harm than Republicans.

Originally posted by lord xyzAmericans are dumb and don't vote like they should. At the heart of things, most Americans are centrist (some could even argue center-left), but they get deluded by wedge issues.

Originally posted by StrangeloveOh yeah, the scare tactics. It's funny, if a scare tactic was used here (like being religious) it would lesson the chance of that person being elected.

Hehe, well, we're a depressed nation, so we aren't as gullible as you guys.ermm
Thing is that you like this nation, presumably, I honestly cannot fathom why.
My guess is that you like it because you were born here, as I did for a while. People who come here from foreign countries may like it also, but I honestly see nothing that good about it. Look around you for a bit, shit weather, shit food, an enormously xenophobic and annoying people - I can't wait to get out of here.
