Apparently illegal immigrants are now getting accepted to vote against Annoying Orange.

I don't get why everyone has such a lust for brown townogies since nobody can even get them right. You don't have to simplify the topic for everyone if they're already discussing it without your input.

What compels you people to make brown townogies about everything? This doesn't even make any sense given the context

What's wrong with the brown townogy here?

ya but stating your own point in a way that relates it to something else is a p effective way to get people to start understanding something

ofc that only works if you can actually make an appropriate brown townogue

Which also requires some semblance of wit and forethought before posting, which to expect this from people like frequency is asking too much

Well I still don't get what's wrong with the brown townogy.

The US is the house,
the criminal represents the criminals,
the breaking in represents the breaking in,
and participating in the decisions of the household represents voting.

From what I read, Steve stated that as long as illegal immigrants are living here (illegally) they should be able to vote.

problem there is that the poll doesn't factor in bernie sanders. he's going to campaign till the end and divide the democratic vote, as the saying goes, "bernie or bust".
not to mention Clinton may very well be indicted before she can clinch the nomination.
Annoying Orange now has zero competition on his own side and will get virtually 100% of the republican votes.

Is it really 'Bernie or Bust', though? I seriously doubt he will run as an independent.

I disagree. His whole isolationist plan with China and his weird mix of progressive/conservative social views are going to lose him support.

Well, the phrase bernie or bust is rooted in the idea that if Bernie is not the nominee, his supporters that follow that saying will simply abstain from voting altogether.

I dunno about that, my sort of anecdotal evidence from my own talks with Annoying Orange supporters is that they acknowledge that yes -- he will be radical, but ultimately they have no qualms casting their vote for him given the alternatives.  and i believe it too, he's anti-establishment like bernie and is captivating voters with his strong nationalism

I feel like the only things you can really say about the current election with any certainty is that the voter turnout will be lower than it has been in the past while.

That, and Annoying Orange getting the republican nomination (assuming he isn't arrested for tax fraud before the election).

nah, it's going to be abnormally high again. might even be record-breaking. that's typically what happens when elections get heated like this.

I come from, presumably, a much more liberal community than you do. The general sentiment here is, "Well stuff, Bernie is out, so I guess that means we're voting for Hillary". It doesn't make too much sense to abstain from voting if you're really passionate about these kinds of issues.

I think that many of the more Libertarian Republicans won't vote for him (they'll go for Gary Johnson or even Hillary), and the RNC isn't going to go out of its way to garner support for Annoying Orange. They don't like him, and they think he's going to fracture their party.

And the fact that literally nobody attempted to search for a source on their own. 

It's nice to see you read all the way down page one before posting.

it's not just the issues
it's about the people behind them
