No argument here that the Brits have a better system of government than we do. The Senate & the House accomplish what exactly?

And the House of Commons is accomplishing what as well? The mechanics of our government are not the problem, it's the participants. Unfortunately, that includes the electorate as much as it does the elected. We have the government that reflects the electorate voting for that government.

People don't give the Native Americans enough credit. These people sold land that they didn't even own! That's pure, American capitalism right there. :thumb:

Yet another one of those "hindsight is 20/20" deals.

Want to impress me, have a progressive write an article about why Black Lives Matter and Occupy Wall Street were a mistake and check to see if he's still alive and has a career in six months :nod:

I tend to agree. HOWEVER, some version of a Prime Ministers Questions would be nice.
Hillary won't even do pressers with friendly media.

Do you really think she'd sit for an hour to be lambasted by Congress?

Waitaminnit

I wonder if there will be a legislative session between now and the elections? Pass that law and she won't run

You're right. The last time she spoke to the media and took questions ( one on one interviews don't count) was mid December 2015. The press is frustrated that she hasn't held a press conference and answered tough questions on ANY subject not to mention following her FBI case being closed. If she's this opaque on the campaign trail, why would anyone expect her to be anything else once elected.

Also, JSO, if she's this untrustworthy and dishonest now, can you imagine how much the power of the office will exacerbate her flaws?


That's right...but Trump. Image
