for this REPUBLIC for this nation, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all

true American taxpaying hero



Honestly I believe unles Bernie Sanders runs there's not much of a good way. Hillary Clinton is probably the lesser of evils here, but her image, at least with me, is marred by recent scandals and the shortcomings of the previous Clinton administration.

Now for republicans. God help us all. The republican party- Turning the Free World into the Corporate World. Across the board I disagree with environmental issues. The thought of "Religions freedom through LGBT suppression is horrifying enough. Figures like John Boehner attempt to sneak stuff past congress rather underhandedly.

Jeb Bush and John Kasich both were Lehman Brothers associates of some sorts I believe. I don't believe they are to be trusted. At the least, Kasich is, and I believe Bush to be.

Ted Cruz is a radical, who falls out of line with me on some civil liberties issues, and his campaigning for a not so neutral net. He has cut NASAs budget because apparently they are looking at Earth too much and not getting to Mars fast enough.

Marco Rubio and Rand Paul also, to my knowledge, support the "Religious Freedom through LGBT Supression idea. Arguably Ted Cruz is worse than either, but I personally do not agree with them.


I can't vote so I'll just wait and be along for the ride. If stuff hits the fan I can always book it to any country except those in the middle east.

Are you an illegal?

To elaborate on my own stances, in order of things most to least important.

For the good of all users and even businesses on the Internet, it must remain neutral. That's for the good of the entire economy.
The TPP must be put down. Trade pacts are fine, but this one is absolutely forgeted up.
The Patriot Act must be put down and the NSA's domestic spying cut.
One way or another we are loving up the environment. Impose new environmental protections.
Gun. should be legal.
Abortion is strictly a women's choice, for forgets sake men will never actually give birth to these kids. I've had some huge stuffs I wish I could have aborted.
Gay marriage should be legal, because your freedom of religion stops where it starts to infringe upon the religion or lack thereof of others.
Recreational Weed should be legal. It can be taxed and it puts illegal dealers out of business, ending that front of the drug war.
Drug usage is a health issue, not a criminal one.
Amnesty of illegal immigrants with a path to citizenship. They come here because it's absolutely loving miserable down there. Just let them stay.

In your opinion, which candidate may win?
Which may become Prime Minister?
David Cameron or possibly Ed Miliband.
Nick Clegg will probably end up as Deputy PM to either one of them, as he's made it perfectly clear he will jump into bed with any party, because he's just a political whore.

Supposedly SNP, Plaid Cymru and Green will all form a coalition with Labour if given the chance, but Labour says they won't join with SNP.
I would like to believe that, but who knows what will happen should Labour have a chance of getting power.

UKIP will do very well, I'm certain. They took the MEP elections by storm, and I believe they have a firm backing of supporters who are actively going to vote.
They've no chance for a majority government, of course. But they may end up with a considerable number of seats.
And it's not impossible that they end up siding with the Tories.
If the pattern continues of UKIP stealing Lib Dem seats then they might take that position away from them.

There's no doubt though that this election will end with either a Coalition Government or a Hung Parliament.
And I would prefer a Coalition Government to a Hung Parliament, UNLESS that Coalition Government included the SNP/Green/Plaid Cymru group. Because such a divided coalition government means that Labour and their plans can be held ransom by too many.
And it's certain that if SNP gets in power in anyway they will force another in/out Scottish Independence referendum, and that is not something we need.
It will also mean the greens get all pissy and have us throw out Trident, and it'll mean more UK money going directly into the pockets of Wales and Scotland, rather than going towards the United Kingdom.


So for me, I hope we end up with one of the following, in order of preference;
Conservative (unlikely)
Conservative/UKIP (slightly unlikely)
Conservative/Lib Dem/UKIP (slightly unlikely)
Conservative/Lib Dem (likely)
Labour/Lib Dem (likely) or Labour (unlikely) [Lib Dems are basically a puppet, so a Labour Coalition is in essence the same as a Labour Majority)

All I know is that Clinton is a dumb dike and I hope she looses.

Not a big fan of handing out citizenship to just anyone.

Mexico is not the best place to live. However the problem is that Mexico is a one party government, they've had a problems with corruption since they tried to be an empire. I suppose we could help Mexico. Making it a better place would stop the flow of immigration.

Just about any country in the world deports illegal immigrants. Even the EU is building a border fence in Bulgaria. Suadia Arabia plans to build a border fence. Even mexico has one to the south, they even send people back south. But it is evil for the US  to build a fence and deport people when everyone is doing it?
