Leaning Gary Johnson right now and hoping that having the two worst candidates in history could lead to the collapse of the two party system.

Gary Johnson..

And I know from reading some of Bren's political arguments online how he feels about that.. lol.

Refuse to vote for any of them.

Not voting has been a close second option for me. I think a low voter turnout least sends a message that both parties put forth awful candidates.

I felt like one joke candidate on the poll was enough.

Stein might actually be the LAST person I would consider voting for.
And as I said on my reply above, one joke candidate in the poll was enough.

I know, then the Dems nominated HRC... sheesh. :wink:

Sheesh is right. The way I describe this election (in which I'm going to vote Democrat for the first and hopefully last time) goes like this: remember Kellen Moore and how hopeless he looked for the cowboys last year? Most of you know that I used to be a football coach, so when I say that Kellen Moore is the worst NFL quarterback I've ever seen that comes with some expertise. He just couldn't play. At all. But here's the thing, do you have any idea how much better Moore was than I am? That's basically the gap between Trump and Clinton. Clinton might be the worst candidate ever, but she's a candidate.

They are all awful...if they would all croak, that would be great. We can start the nomination process over again and find someone better. In the interim Obama can be on his merry way too so he doesn't do anything else stupid or illegal or not within his power. A gridlocked Congress is not a bad thing, surprisingly we might do better with less laws and money being spent; just let people figure out shit on their own without big brother trying to tinker with every little thing.

Yeah but there's awful like she's a liar who mostly cares about being president and will do whatever it takes to get there and then there's awful like might inadvertently fire a nuclear weapon into the wall he's building on the Mexican border

Good thing he wouldn't be in charge of actually aiming the missiles. I am pretty confident that our men and women in the armed forces still have the operational and functional aspects of our nuclear missile program under control. Trump may start WWIII or turn the middle east into a glass parking lot, but we at least know it wouldn't be us against the Russians. Trump and Putin would likely be shooting vodka when they started the damn thing.

...and Clinton.....Holy Hell.....people think Wall Street Bankers are/were corrupt. lmao.......that family has set a whole new standard.

Will you guys vote for me for President if I just repurpose my ExCo campaign slogan of "Make ExCo Great Again" into "Make Baseball Great Again?"

Careful, you might accidentally commit suicide or die in a plane crash pretty soon if you keep that talk up

Pretty sure that description applies to just about every president in the last hundred+ years. And probably at least 90% of congressional candidates. Apparently that quality is acceptable in a male candidate, but not in a female candidate.

And in the world of third party candidates, we have Jill Stein spray painting stuff and getting arrest warrants issued for her. Meanwhile, Gary Johnson wants someone to tell him what the hell Aleppo is. Yeah, those two are GREAT alternatives...

Probably true. On the other hand, Putin could make an off-hand remark about the size of Trump's gloves, Trump flies off the handle and decided nuking Russia is better than paying them back for all the money he borrowed from them. There is nothing that Trump could do that would surprise me.

Hillary takes it to a new level though. Fixing the primaries to assure Bernie didn't stand a chance. Manipulating news agencies to assure news articles benefit her. Selling access to the government to anybody willing to pay off the Clinton Foundation. Carelessly drifting through her time as Sec. of State just to check in the box to beef up her resume and perform actions that would result in any other state official being fired and shamed, and potentially sent to prison.

Yes, all politicians are sociopaths, but her actions would put her in prison in any fair society. I'm not saying Trump is any better, just that Hillary is a horrible person and the best thing that could happen for our country is probably for whoever wins this election to promptly die.

Well Gary, they're all talking about you now! FFS. Not that I believe any candidate outside of perhaps HRC would know what Aleppo is, but they're talking about him now for all the wrong reasons.
