This is pretty much how I feel. I will probably vote independent no matter what but if Trump/Cruz wins, I will probably vote for Hillary just to prevent the disaster and national embarrassment. I live and vote in Virginia now so my vote actually matters unlike DC.

Yeah DC is the liberal safe haven. I didn't know what liberalism really was until I lived there for a few years but holy shit its deeply left entrenched.

Tavis Smiley seems to think that Trump could pick up a decent amount of the black vote.

I've also heard the name Allen West as a possible VP choice for Trump.

That's what happens when a large group that never performed in the private sector is gifted with $3.5 trillion a year of other people's money.

He kicks BLM out of every stop he's been at. You're delusional if you think he's getting the black vote.

Loved McCain, until he picked Palin and saw more and more former Bush neocons as his advisers.

At least Bernie appears to have real, if flawed to most of us, beliefs. I believe the Clintons have none. Its all politics with them. I believe my earlier characterization of her (and her husband) as sociopaths is accurate. Bernie's just a wackadoodle.

^George Orwell on Political Language.

It is way easier for people to just say "Commie!" rather than argue policies on the merits e.g.

I give you the term 'progressive'.

Yet another example of the left using subterfuge to gain more power. Many know the term is essentially code word for marxism (in practice), but not enough know. So the liberal democrat candidate in the U.S. uses this word instead of the other word in order to hoodwink a certain segment of voters.

Words have meanings, and the use of the proper descriptors in public discourse is highly important. When the left attempts to hide the truth, it often changes terminology or shutters speech to gain advantage, as disingenuous as it is.

I don't think he meant that Trump would WIN the black vote, but would pull a decent amount, more than say McCain or Romney did.

Now now... Hillary and Bill both hold one strong core belief... their focus groups tell them what the populous wants to hear.

I'd be O.K. with that so long as they carried out their Executive duties based on the limitations of the Constitution combined with the manner the populous wanted. Wish we could find that person.

That individual will never be found in today political gene pool as long as the senate and congress have career term longevity.

If trump gets 1 of every 4 black voters to vote for him, this election is over.

Also, does he kick BLM supporters out of his rallies, or do they do a bunch of stupid shit to disrupt the rally and get themselves kicked out?

I agree 100%. I would LOVE for Condi Rice to make a run for POTUS, but I highly doubt she would jump on the Trump circus.
