Clinton and Trump are Losing a Lot of Young Voters

In the words of a famous dictator:

"The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything."
 
If Clinton and Trump are losing a lot of young voters, who is left, other than the extreme radical nut cases and the totally uninformed?
 
I'm actually less concerned with the president as long as it's not Trump but really concerned about the next Supreme court selections
 
We need a five party system so its chaotic nature can duplicate congress

We have that many parties..we just don't let them compete in the debates and they're poor so have no ad funding...we need to see the Libertarian convention, the Green Party convention, The constitution party convention, all of them.

With this system only the internet could be cost effective for their awareness campaign.
 
the totally uninformed?

the next Supreme court selections

I consider anyone that wants the court to tell you what the Constitution says, rather than wanting the court to follow what we can all read, as originally written, is truly uninformed. To want the courts to replace the amendment process is as extreme and uninformed as you can find. It is like giving up your rights and your protection without a struggle.

It doesn't make it any less egregious that an entire generation or two think they are in favor of this out come. It does indicate a lack of understanding and knowledge of history.

To be specific, anyone that want the courts to be stacked to enable the progressive agenda rather than follow the Constitution, as modified by amendments currently ratified and in the future is indeed the definition of ignorant.

I have to take you to task on this one ....what's wrong with progression? Our Constitution has been amended throughout the years. When did you want this to stop happening and why would anyone compare what the original 13 colonies mapped out with what America is today? Conservatives have definitely contributed to the amendments. I think you're stereotyping generations and assuming what they favor...then calling them ignorant...for a country that hasn't reached a thousand years of age yet...you seem to want to hang on to pre Civil War attitudes if you deem change as ignorance. What's the issue? Abortion? Gun control? Gay rights? Sounds like the Constitution party would be your party of choice.
 
They just need a Pokemon Voting app or let people use Facebook or Instagram to vote. Problem solved, and created.

Is progression an amendment I haven't heard of. Maybe your mortgage should be a living document. House is worth more? Well, your payment goes up.

Most amendments are a form of progression...unless you consider women's right to vote bad along with many changes along the way

>>>>Good question Bodyman.

what's wrong with progression?

>>>Everything if you expect the court to provide you with progress. If you offer and amendment that you view as progress then I am not opposed to that at all, even if I don't agree with your amendment.

Our Constitution has been amended throughout the years.

>>>Yes, and some amendments were sorely needed and long over due. Some were not so good and repealed. Not a thing wrong with this process.

When did you want this to stop happening

>>> I do not wish to see the process stop. Not sure why you think this would be the case?

why would anyone compare what the original 13 colonies mapped out with what America is today?

>>> I didn't. Why do you ask?

I think you're stereotyping generations and assuming what they favor

>>> Perhaps I am, I would hope to be wrong. However, I do not see one post in this thread that supports the idea of appointing a judge to the court that will follow the Constitution with the philosophy of original intent. If you do not like what the Constitutions says then it should be amended if agreeable, rather than rely on the court to reinterpret what it says to fit the current progressive view.

you seem to want to hang on to pre Civil War attitudes

>>> Wild man! I say what I mean, but I can't help what you infer.

Abortion?

>>> A good example. This has been front and center for far too long now. A bull shit ruling by the court did not end the question. An amendment put through process should have been done.
I would support it even though I find the idea repugnant. I would even be in favor of having the Federal Government pay for the proceedure when appropriate. We do not need more feral children in this country.

Gun control?

>>>The right to bare arm shall not be infringed. If you wish to remove that right or infringe on it, then lets see the amendment.

Sounds like the Constitution party would be your party of choice.

>>>It might seem that way, but I am not likely to cast a vote that probably has no meaning. As it stands now, I agree with the Democrats about 10% of the time,
with the Republicans about 75% of the time. No other party is relevant even if you agree with them 90+% of the time.

As it is today, I agree with Trump more that the Republicans and Hillary on about nothing, especially her statement about appointing justices that will enable the progressive agenda[/QUOTE]

You didn't say word one about amending anything. I'm all for that if there is something people want to change.

I didn't voice any complaint about the constitution...just the idea that a progressive supreme court judge would throw it out the window seemed a bit over the top.....I mentioned several issues....gay marriage, abortion, gun control.....those seem to be the arguing points ultra conservatives have if the Supreme court is not as conservative as it has been

I'm pretty consistent. I want a progressive judge to rule the same as a Nazi judge, that is ruling on what is written. Not finding a way to bend it to fit your ideals. It seems like the progressive side speaks more about the living document.

I don't much care for 9 people being the final authority anyway. 49 would be a good start, even if we have to throw some ambulance chasers in there with them.
 
Ive been preaching apathy and supreme synicism for some time now. Finally my generation is begining to follow my foot steps.

If you're preaching something...better learn to spell it first! I'm just being cynical though..:)
 
Oh shoot the Millenials won't vote? Bummer... Green font to the extreme. Who cares

Give me and idea. Text your social security number to ______ to vote hillary. I wonder how many identities you could steal, but then again, someone that dumb probably has worse credit than me.
