I think most people vote similarly -- the problem is the difference in the definition of "damage"

I hate to be condescending, but neither of those things have been campaign issues since the first President Bush.echoraven wrote:Democrats increase your taxes. Guaranteed. Republicans roll back consumer protections and other things that are generally pro-poor schmuck and they might increase your taxes.
Hilary is the only strong Democrat with national traction that can stand up against the ready-to-break tea party wave (nothing against Warren or Sanders, Sanders should stay a senator and Warren should be at the ready for the next election). (I hope) people are realizing that all Republicans are going to do is be a bunch of fucking babies with no regard for policy based on what actually works.For Democrats Hillary (unfortunately) has the best chance. John Q Public is in a state of Obama-fatigue with the Workforce Participation Rate at a 30 year low (at about 1978 levels) and this gives Republicans the advantage, but Hillary's "royalty" status can neutralize the "Obama-fatigue".
I think it's time for Warren. While populist she doesn't seem to have the megalomaniac tendency of Obama and Hillary and would hopefully put country before party; which is something Obama has failed spectacularly to do (given the state of the economy) and Hillary seems more of the same.snipelfritz wrote:Perhaps.

this has been going on forever and is not considered to be an issue re constitutional law.Chankgeez wrote:I thought there's supposed to be a separation between Church and State?

I mean, I understand voting according to one's beliefs, but let's try to leave religion out of politics.
