    I wonder if there is a record for the date I voted on this poll? Which was definitely at least back in Sep 2015?

    When this thread was started it was a ridiculous proposition that he could win. Now it is a realistic proposition. It would be funny if it weren't so terrifying.

    Terrifying, yes. I think the best outcome for this election is that the 2 party system will be changed, and laws will be written to limit the amount of money in politics.

    Another change would probably be the addition of superdelegates to the republican primary process.

    Should Bernie get in along with Gary Johnson running as libertarian, I don't think Trump will win. Johnson will take votes away from Trump because there are a lot of republicans who hate Trump like how there are many progressives like me who flat out hate Hillary.

    Maybe Bernie could get Arthur Brown to allow his song, "Fire" to be used for the Sanders campaign!

    "I am the god of hell fire and I bring you:
    Fire, I'll take you to Bern.
    Fire, I'll take you to learn."

    An interesting idea though I can't say I know much about Johnson. Would they work well together?

    Can't help but think that Trump has a good point when he says now "I don't think we need anymore debates, how many times do we have to answer the same godamn questions, let's vote already"?
    He is the only one that can say that and actually mean it. News stations are scared the ratings cash cow might be over before election, along with all late night comic shows so it likely won't happen but I think Trump just simply will not attend anymore or very few debates as they are not required as part of the race.

    No matter what, Trump can't get out of the spotlight - it truly is remarkable.

    His candid impromptu early morning press conferences (9am ET, who does that?) which he receives full CNN coverage - FREE.

    This guy can't be stopped and now DR. Carson endorses him, wow.

    Trump has a very good point that many people are coming out to vote that not normally would have.

    Trump doesn't want to be out of the spotlight. He's having the time of his life (at his supporters expense).

    of course he doesn't want any debates.. he doesn't have any reasonable answers. hes a clown... I heard on CCN a few weeks back some talking head say that 'they' laughed at Reagan too. I thought wtf stupid woman Reagan was governor of California before he was president,.. what the fuck is trump besides an egomaniacal douchebag. the shit that comes out of that mans mouth makes me want to slap every man I see. ;)
    hear my name

    Yes, I was thinking this morning that perhaps we've all been wrong about the need to increase voter participation. If this is the result, I prefer the days when nobody voted.

    ^^^^ FYI, the "I'm an American --no" is not my poll vote. It showed up in the post all on its own.
