The States: Where We Wish Texas Would Secede Already

I'd love to see Mark Cuban get more involved.

For fark's sake. Why?

Joyce Alene, a US attorney for Obama, thinks that it’s a lead-up to overturn Obergefell.

Legislative leaders have already said its going no where, it didn't make it past the first funnel, and as a Constitutional Amendment, it would need to pass again 2 years from now.

There's plenty of horse hockey legislation that has or will pass to focus on. Don't waste time on the stuff that's meant to grab headlines to distract from that.

Mark Cuban? Good God no. That is almost a bad as people who want Oprah or The Rock. Putting politically incompetent people in the highest office is lazy and stupid.

Mark Cuban may have better politics but he is no more qualified to be President than Trump was and he is just as irrationally hotheaded.

[Kepler]

Specifically why?

No more billionaire white knights. Their very existence is the root problem. Let's get away from the money and the royal families and choose as leaders people who have worked to better the lives of workers and proles, and who have known what it is to be in need. No more flight into adolescent superhero fantasy. Let's build our policies and parties around substantial requirements of real people, not curated celebrity social media profiles.

We don't need Bushes or Kennedys or Romneys or Forbes. We need humans.

[Slap Shot]

No, please. No. Just no.

Specifically why?

[St. Clown]

Republicans in Iowa want to ban same sex marriage. And the language in the bill is especially transphobic.

Al Frankin. He and Zalensky can rule the world.

There are plenty of people there, the Dems just have a way of self-eliminating before things even get going. I'm not saying every person who is interested in the nomination is a great or even good choice, mind you, but we have a way of checking people off before we even get the debate going because they are not the love-child of JFK and Obama. The GOP at least lets people build up some momentum during their process, so that their names get out there and they get the ball rolling for other positions even if they don't win the POTUS nomination, whereas we write people off before the process even starts, and then wonder why our bench is weak. We write off candidates from large consistently-blue states because we don't want to be pushing coastal liberalism on people, but you don't see the GOP writing off candidates from Texas; if anything that gets them mega-hard and they push them even more strongly. I'm not saying we become total *******s like that, but we need to push the brand a little more rather than let the potential criticisms hamstring us into doing nothing.

So who gets you excited? I'll admit, this is a pretty bad farm system we have right now. Single A fully stocked, AAA... yikes.

The folks on the Insurrection Committees and on Beer Boy's Confirmation Screw Job all acquitted themselves well.

And all the Clintonistas are dead. Addition by subtraction.

I think you are underestimating a lot of people...we won't know who is viable until they declare. Most of the "sure things" fizzle our fast and randos come out of nowhere.

Newsom is a nonstarter. If pressed, I would say Whitmer is more viable than Pete, but neither particularly get my constituent blood flowing.
