But, the political threads don't bother me. I can ignore. I can read or not. I can participate or not.
Should we ask for anything more than choice? I don't think so.

The really funny thing is that no one is changing their mind.
No matter who wins, the rest of us all LOSE, some more than others.
The system is broken, and has been for a long time.

Why won't people vote for Gary Johnson? He's a very reasonable man with a good track record. I voted for him in 2012 and 2016 primary and will vote for him this fall.

I happened to be watching "The Five" the other day when Johnson was with them.

I was definitely NOT impressed with his contributions to the discussions or his arguments on the issues.
I also found this other article about his views, too.

Unless he was THE ONLY other candidate opposing Clinton, I wouldn't vote for him.
His running mate doesn't seem to be a logical choice, either.

I LOVE THIS!!!!! All that talk about the Koch brothers supporting Conservatives, but never a mention of the millions and millions Geo Soros dumps in for the Liberals.

Uhhh ... it's not about liberals or conservatives .... no such thing in this country.
We have a kleptocratic corporatocracy with a leaning and movement towards an authoritarian police state ... DEM, GOP, makes no difference.

There's a favorite saying that Pol-Sci students and observers use for what happens AFTER the RNC and DNC conventions. It's called
'Baking the cake' The analogy goes like this: Most undecided people drift around before the conventions but then after the conventions they start solidifying to one side or the other. As time passes the cake starts to solidify and there is less and less change thru October. Pretty simple really. Not quite so, what can happen is a Sept or Oct surprise... Swift Boating, Nixon sweating up a storm during the debates etc ... you get the picture. Probably the post convention experience is more like baking a
souffle in that it will start to firm up but it's also prone to a complete collapse if it gets jolted. Isn't politics fun when you break it all down

If you get your information from "The Five" and inquisitr.com, there is no possibility of rational argument affecting you.
Plus, the fact that you make a post saying you are not impressed without saying why is a strong indication that you are not familiar with rational arguments.
If you only watch videos and don't read, you would do better to watch some legitimate sources like

I hope you enjoy four years of Hillary after your boy Trump loses.

Wrong assumption.
I rarely watch TV anymore. But, as I said, I happened to be in the room the other day when The Five came on and saw that discussion. I saw the link to inquisitr.com when I was searching for the discussion on The Five. The only site I regularly read is Breitbart.com. The mainstream media (MSM) is not very good at showing all sides of the news. But, I still read a variety of sites.......liberal and conservative (ain't much in-between).......and try to sort it out because most of them have a bias in some form or another. And, the liberal/left bias turns me off, but I still get curious.
And, don't make it sound like I picked Trump myself. He was the last person standing after 16 others dropped out. I was "mentally" rooting for many others before the end.......Walker, Perry, Carson, Fiorina, and probably a couple of others.
If you vote for Johnson, it will be a vote for or against one or the other of the two.......possibly the one you like the least because Johnson won't/can't win.

Donald and Hillary Go Into A Bakery on the Campaign Trail
As soon as they enter the bakery, Hillary steals three pastries and puts them in her pocket.
She says to Donald, "See how clever I am?
The owner didn't see anything and I don't even need to lie.
I will definitely win the election."
The Donald says to Hillary, "That's the typical dishonesty you have
displayed throughout your entire life, trickery and deceit.
I am going to show you an honest way to get the same result."
Donald goes to the owner of the bakery and says, "Give me a pastry and I will show you a magic trick."
Intrigued, the owner accepts and gives him a pastry.
Trump swallows it and asks for another one.
The owner gives him another one.
Then Donald asks for a third pastry and eats that, too.
The owner is starting to wonder where the magic trick is and asks,
"What did you do with the pastries?"
Trump replies, "Look in Hillary's pocket."

the moral of that story: they found the pastries in her pocket, but Obama, stopped the prosecution of her crime, and the news media closed their eyes, again and reported her 10 points higher in the Polls because of her ability to get pastries for Bill and his girl friends for free. Jim
