If Sanders, by some last minute miracle, becomes the Democratic nominee for the 2020 general elections in America, I hope for, and expect a record turnout unless by then we're all quarantined. If on the

Some analysts are calling it Super Tuesday 2, or Mini-Super Tuesday, but whatever you call it, there are six more states voting in the Democratic primary on March 10. Out of the six, there has been some

If you've read my posts recently, you know that in all of recorded human history the powerful have one aim, and that is to stay in power. That's why conservatism is always inextricably linked to those

To 'senator' Richard J. Durbin (from Illinois) What evidence do you have that caused you to vote to convict a man that many, many people thought was innocent? I realize that you believe that the president

Back in January, well before the Democratic primary race had taken on its current composition, independent journalist Ruth Ann Oskolkoff reported that a source had heard from high-level Democratic Party

Harsh truth: Most of the problems in our world stem from bad parenting. The government serves as a proxy parental figure for psychologically broken and emotionally wounded men & women. The leftist

One of the issues that we are going to run into, based on the individualistic and in-group/out-group ways that the human brain works, is politics. Maybe it's identity-based, maybe it's ideological, or

The propagandists have all gone dead silent on the WikiLeaks founder they previously were smearing with relentless viciousness, because they no longer have an argument. The facts are all in, and yes, it

In my view Trump's chances of re-election have probably risen by lot just lately. I see two ways a Trump-Sanders general election can go. Both strongly favor Trump. I'll describe them both briefly. Capitalism

Medical provision in America is already socialized, and is non-equitable in its distribution, due to third party gatekeepers dictating (under impenetrable secrecy) who gets what and how much will be

Wow. Last night's debate was an unmitigated disaster; I truly hope none of you saw it. All seven candidates on stage were constantly talking and even yelling over one another and the moderators failed

I’m seeing a lot of negative memes about various candidates in the Democratic primary. It’s worth taking a step back and reflecting on the overall process. There is value in making sure that the chosen

I'm writing this just before the start of the Democratic primary debate in South Carolina and I hope to be able to catch it somewhere online. There are some important observations I'd like to share with

Hey JessFreedom Fighters Their once was a time where religion and the state were one and the same. Still, as countries become multicultural, this became impractical and imposed on peoples freedoms to believe

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. ~John Adams We currently live is a society in which morality has come to be

I've been thinking about Bloomberg's comment that he could teach someone to farm. "You just dig a hole, put the seed in, cover it up, and let the rain do the rest." A friend said he's not talking

I am not at all an expert in the new Communities feature, and I have no Reddit experience, but I think I'll give this a try. Here goes nothin'! I know my economic opinions are outside the mainstream of

This remark by Trump is very disappointing to me. Is he going to go around punishing companies who are trying to compete in a global marketplace? Are smaller profits now patriotic in his book? Isn't that
