Who are the clowns and late night hosts endorsing? That's all that matters, eh?So far the score on daily newspaper endorsements is Clinton 11, Johnson 5, Trump 0. Pretty amazing.

Defense of real americans isn't spying on everyone and it isn't bombing Pakistan.
A little information gathering might be prudent. Or at least a third grader's grasp of social studies.
Trump may be many things, but one thing he most certainly is is an ass.

I think Gary Johnson was as shocked as we were that he'd even have a shot at the endgame...if he'd had a year of press and a support system, I'm sure he'd have approached this election better prepared. He got good reviews for 8 years as governor of New Mexico..that's where I started...I like his calm demeanor..reminds me of Terry Stotts
Trump 0. Pretty amazing.
Oh, I guess I should defer to the category expert.
Naw, Newspapers are like that. Did you know, there hasn't been a proposed tax increase that the Oregonian didn't support in the last 80 years.
Now you wouldn't expect them to endorse a guy purposing to cut taxes, would you?
We aren't talking the Oregonian here. They haven't endorsed yet.
We are talking the Dallas Morning News, the Houston Chronicle, the Arizona Republic, Cincinnati Enquirer... papers that have a long history of endorsing republicans.

And nothing has changed.
They have all endorsed the real Republican Candidate in this year's race, Hillary Clinton.
The young woman in both pictures is Wellesley graduate and newly registered Democrat (was a registered Republican until 1968) Hillary Rodham.
Speaking of illegal visits to Cuba...
The Venceremos Brigade is a politically motivated international organization founded in 1969 by members of the Students for a Democratic Society and officials of the Republic of Cuba.[1] Carl Oglesby, Bernardine Dohrn, Julie Nichamin, Brian Murphy, Allen Young and other members of SDS were primarily responsible for the idea, organization and negotiations with Carlos Rafael Rodríguez[2] and other members of the Cuban government. The first trip in November 1969 numbered 216[3] and left from Czechoslovakia to skirt the U.S. government's restrictions on travel to the island.[2] It was formed as a coalition of young people attempting to show solidarity with the Cuban Revolution by working side by side with Cuban workers, challenging U.S. policies towards Cuba, including the United States embargo against Cuba. The yearly brigade trips, which as of 2010 have brought more than 9,000 people to Cuba, continue today and are coordinated with the Pastors For Peace Friendship Caravans to Cuba.[4]
The first Brigades participated in sugar harvests and subsequent Brigades have done agricultural and construction work in many parts of the island, although the "work" portion of their trips has become largely symbolic.[5]
According to debriefing statements made to the FBI by a Cuban Intelligence officer who defected in 1983, the Veceremos Brigade was controlled by Cuban Intelligence officer Alfredo Garcia Almeida, chief of the North American Section of the Americas Department and former political counselor at the Cuban Mission to the United Nations in New York City.[6]
Despite this accusation, the organization as a whole has experienced little censure from U.S. authorities. But the FBI has questioned individual travellers over the years. In 2010, at least 12 brigade participants were visited by FBI agents, but were left in peace when they declined to be interviewed.
Here are two pictures from that trip:

The top picture shows a young American member of the Venceremos Brigade cutting sugar cane in Cuba. The second shows the same young American woman plowing Cuban fields in 1969.

If that is not Hillary on the tracker, where did she learn how to plow manure?
I was a fan of the protests, now not of the protesters anymore.
