I've had a best friend say the same thing -- one of the first to break into the software engineering field in the 80s, and look at how little progress we've made there. It's really a bummer. More women need to run, every time, so people get used to seeing them on the stage.Lerxst1992 said:My SO, a liberal voter, firmly believes that America will not elect a woman president as the country currently exists.
She staunchly thinks it is impossible. Is she as bad as Bernie?I’m more worried about the attitude of voters in certain regions of the country than the quality of the candidates And not sure if they are persuadable. I think Amy would be an excellent President.0 -
I don't get that, though. Clinton came really close and won the popular vote. It's only a matter of time.Lerxst1992 said:My SO, a liberal voter, firmly believes that America will not elect a woman president as the country currently exists.

She staunchly thinks it is impossible. Is she as bad as Bernie?She’s pretty firm about her opinion.I have hope we see that happen one day, or even Mayor Pete winning one day.
The electoral college is giving more and more power to the rural states as the population increases around the cities. I’m thinking the popular vote might be living with dinosaurs soon.0 -

Actually, we already did once, by vote count anyway.

I think we’ll get a female president soon; Ivanka. Even if that’s not the case, I think the first female president is going to be a Republican. America doesn’t like (perceived) liberal women...they might even be accused of being “feminists.”1995 Milwaukee 1998 Alpine, Alpine 2003 Albany, Boston, Boston, Boston 2004 Boston, Boston 2006 Hartford, St. Paul (Petty), St. Paul (Petty) 2011 Alpine, Alpine

Yes he's right. SS needs means testing and recalibration. It's a social benefit that will break us at its current pace. Im 100% with him.Spiritual_Chaos said:0 -

You trust a campaign that lies about people's record and lies about what he said to Warren? Shame on you.

You hear about Trump's cash advantage, but that's against individuals, not the total field. Once we have a nominee, Trump will be swamped in the media.

Sadly, that's what a certain current president does.mickeyrat said:Damn good thing some posters on this site cant vote here.....soundbites and memes do not make an informed voter.
To bad a large percentage of American voters will vote based on soundbites, memes, mainstream "news", and whatever it is they have been brainwashed into believing without doing any research or suing critical thinking on their own. I mean, how else could we have ended up with Trump? It a sad state of affairs.

I mean, how else could we have ended up with Trump? It a sad state of affairs.It's more than a bit frustrating, isn't it?That brings up the question of what to do about it- how to not only get more people out to vote, but how to get them to vote in a more informed manner. Better education and parenting come to mind, but education in the U.S. seems to be a low priority and better parenting cannot be made mandatory. I don't know how or if things will get better that way."It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -
what is up with Bloomberg? seems to spending a lot of money but is he gaining any traction?
