Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

Who would you vote for if the major candidates were Clinton and Trump?

  • I would vote Clinton

  • I would vote Trump

  • I would vote for a third party candidate even if they had no chance of winning

  • I would abstain

  • I would write in a candidate

  • other - please explain


Results are only viewable after voting.
There are a shit ton of people that pay $0 in federal income tax and get EIC credits back. That's another reason why there will NEVER be a flat tax.

It's so easy for a politician to tweak the tax code to gain votes. With a flat tax, that's gone.
 
You're right. I never said that he did. But I still think he is the only person that could actually beat Clinton in a GE.

The ONLY candidate I actually like is John Kasich. But he isn't going to win.

I could however, see Kasich/John Cena/Frank Underwood/Deez Nutz ending up as Trumps VP. And I think Trump could listen to them and rely on them for policy.
FTFY
 
A flat tax is regressive on the poor. Why don't people understand the simple math of this?

poor person makes $10,000 pays $1K in tax, gets a $2K tax credit.

rich person makes $1M and pays $100K in tax, gets a $2K tax credit.

Regressive?

LOL

I think it's smarmy and disingenuous how you libertarians and Republicans keep pushing this bullshit flat tax. We're not stupid.

I think the numbers speak for themselves.

Poor person gets $1K back.

Rich person pays $100K and gets $1K back.

By the definition of progressive tax, the rich guy is paying 100x more AND the refund is a drop in the bucket to him. To the poor person, $1K is HUGE.

I liked Bill! that dude got his dick sucked in office! Booya!
 
I am no longer undecided. Using the process of elimination, I have found the best, and possibly the only, person that should be our next president.

It was a painful process, however, sometimes the answer is right in front of us, and we do not see it.

Our country needs a good negotiator. Someone that can bring all sides together and make everyone feel like they have gained something in the deal.

To accomplish this, our next president must be open-minded and understand all sides of the issues.

He must be able to clearly express his thoughts.

He must surround himself with quality hard workers whiling to forget party politics.

He must have integrity, and admit when he makes a mistake.

He must have the patience to consider every option before making a decision, and not be influenced by outside politics/pressure or media.


The best person to be our next president is Neil Olshey. I will be writing in his name.
 
NEIL OLSHEY FOR PRES!

Do you think he will continue running the Blazers while he's running the country? Are you telling me that you'd give up our best chance to win a title any time in the next decade in order to have someone competent in the White House?

So what you're saying is you wouldn't vote for a lady?
 
I love when people say they wont vote for a third party because they have no chance. Like if you dont vote for the winner you miss out on a cookie or something.

This is why I dont vote. It's a glorified national popularity contest and the average American knows jack shit about who they vote for they just want that validation of picking the winner. I'm not going to subject myself to the stupidity.

If you don't vote you have NO right to complain about SHIT. Unfortunately you have to work within the system to change it... ijs....

Bottom line, our Plurality voting is flawed. Without IRV voting, it's true, you are voting for someone who has no chance and your vote doesn't really count.
If we voted this way it would be different:

Actually i have every right to complain. Much like your sister Rosa Parks refused to go to the back of the bus, I refuse to check the box.

Meh... She COULDN'T vote.

And SHAME on you for comparing yourself to her.

The fact that you say "your sister" makes SlyPokerDog sound like an ass....

Right now, it's looking like Trump vs. HlLIARy in the fall. If that comes to pass, I'll either be voting for a 3rd party candidate, if someone enters the ring as an independent, or doing a write-in.

Hahahaha I knew that comparison would get you
 
Comedy is the best medicine remember brah

Depends on if the joke is funny. See we're supposed to make fun of racism. Not emulate it. Comparing yourself to Rosa Parks and then saying "your sister" to me simply because I'm black isn't that...
