DONALD TRUMP [should be] DISQUALIFIED

And my father MAKES MORE than Sanders, so wanna try to judge his character too based on your, frankly juvenile thought process?

176K is currently lower end of upper-middle in this country regardless, so I think a lot of people don't really understand that. My dad made almost as much as well for around 31 years, as a regional sysadmin for an international chemical company; you really can't base it all entirely on the amount of money they make. You SHOULD be more wary and look INTO that money to see where and how they made it, and how they are using it, by all means, but you can't automatically just "cause and effect" money with corruption, there is plenty of corruption among the poor, too.

I agree with a lot of points both of you are making though, perhaps for different reasons than why you are making them, but nonetheless. Politics IS a field mostly filled by pomegranatefaced liars, but mostly is not entirely. I go out and eat with a group of my parents' (and now mine, though they are significantly older I prefer the company of older people to begin with) friends, and one of them is a liason between the political leaders in this state and the elected ones in D.C. for healthcare (Kentucky by the way, and yes, she speaks frequently with Mitch, and yes he is as stubborn as he seems on almost everything), and she told us a bit about Bevin. She didn't like the looks of him from the election campaign, so she was very surprised to find how reasonable he was in real life, he hired multiple field professionals with differing viewpoints in each field to oversee everything he was not intimately familiar with, and he takes their advice seriously and acts on it; 100% of politicians are not lying scumbags, just the vast majority of them, some of them are smart enough to know that they are not smart enough to handle everything without outside help, and that's the biggest problem that gets in the way of them doing a good job, pride to the extent of insanity. None of us would have ever have known any of this had she not told us, the media simply does not report on things that do not fit their narrative, specifically, positive actions made by conservatives.

real talk I'd probably prefer Bernie over Clinton and maybe I'd be okay with him being pres (though the thought terrifies me, and I'd be kind of pissed off at the fact that I've already mostly paid off my student loan debts) just for the sole fact that I could at least laugh at the ridiculous purple man he is whenever he gets up to the podium.
Clinton though is a screeching banshee whore and I wouldn't be able to stand having to go through 4-8 years of it all.

I would take Vermin Supreme over Hillary. I would take a third term of G W Bush over Hillary. I would take anything short of a hostile takeover by Kim Jong Un or Putin over Hillary.

Personally, I voted for Rubio since KY had a caucus this year and it's locked to party, but Trump still won here so I guess you can't stump the trump.
