a clown car full of millionaires: the 2016 presidential primary thread

cheney left office with like the worst approval ratings of any politician ever who didn't kill or molest someone

he tried to directly kill someone, give him some credit

c'mon that was just a friendly faceshooting

Could Slate stan any harder for HRC?

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson said Wednesday he would use the U.S. Department of Education to police speech on college campuses.

During an interview, Glenn Beck asked Carson if he would shut down the Education Department as president.

"I actually have something I would use the Department of Education to do," Carson responded. "It would be to monitor our institutions of higher education for extreme political bias and deny federal funding if it exists."

Carson discussed this same idea with a Las Vegas radio host in June. Although he did not explain details, the host, Heidi Harris, said she "loves that idea."

During a town hall meeting in Des Moines, Iowa, last month, a student asked President Barack Obama last month what he thought of Carson's plan to monitor for political bias on campuses. Obama responded, "I have no idea what that means, and I suspect he doesn't either."

zing

pretty good line

also giving an interview to glenn beck should preclude you from running for political office imo

potus: defender of free speech, jailer of whistleblowers

kicker of elves

@SenTedCruz
In 1985, Doc Brown gave Libyan terrorists a fake nuclear bomb. In 2015, @POTUS gave Iran keys to the real thing.

is he...telling us to vote for doc brown?

Back to the Future pretty shitty at predicting that one

just looked out window, back to the future pretty shitty at predicting a lot

Back to the Future 2: shitty movie as well

yeah it is not good

second half (a screwball palimpsest) not bad. last two scenes all-time. otherwise sure.

honestly didn't realize nuclear bombs required keys to start up

Two, turned at the exact same time at different consoles, if movies have taught me anything.

does ted cruz believe even half of his own bullshit?

libyan terrorists? man, other than the hoverboard chase, crispin glover upside down, and the bully villain in a bathrobe, i don't remember a thing about that movie

as morbs pointed out the libyan terrorists are in the first one. not sure why you'd be someone's ghosttweeter if you can't do vapid popcult references right. if the mistake is cruz's own then that's fine.

ok i don't remember the first one either then

crispin glover upside down

that was a different actor; CG was only in the first

oh right, the lawsuit

"crispin glover" upside down

ok i don't remember the first one either then

― goole,

You don't remember when Michael J. Fox reclaimed "Johnny B. Goode" from a black man?

no, that part still burns hot in memory. i don't remember any nuclear bomb stuff or libyans. look i don't want to think about these movies anymore, fuck ted cruz, peace.

haha yeah that Chuck Berry bit is so bad and unnecessary

the third is supposed to be better than the second, right? I won't watch MJ Fox in Wyatt Earp drag though.

the only thing that I can remember being decent in the third one is ZZ Top

Matrix trilogy totally ripped off BTTF's idea of having parts 2 & 3 be totally forgettable

anyway back to the matter at hand

ftfy

Still trying to figure out if the general media panic to find a way to claim Clinton won the debate despite every actual indicator showing otherwise is more hilarious or depressing. It's probably both.

lol in general and also https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2015/10/21/bernie-sanderss-bad-day-new-hampshire-edition/

there is no present, only future

there is no dana, only zul

Benbbag apparently gets bummed out when his whole "smartest guy in the room" thing crashes into clearly not being able to read that article abt BLM but hey what else is new. Ftfy rebuttal was cool and hip tho, maybe that will work magic on the kids when you are grumpily smoothing your lapels at whatever Starbucks you use as home base to keyboard out your endless moronic political word salad.

all kidding aside, the lameness of that response was quite spectacular, how did you do that?

Oh, sorry, I might have been too subtle, I'm saying you are dumb as shit and no one thinks you are making good points or know what you are talking about other than you. Does that help? I mean I guess that's prob also a lame response for you, but again, that's because you are stupid and can't realize you are wrong or your interpretation is flawed because such a thing is impossible in benbbag world.

I, on the other hand, think polls might be showing that plenty of people did feel that Clinton won the debate and my instinct was off. Hey, it's ok to be wrong! Try reading that article again. Signed, an apparently German Lutheran or whatever.

Huh whoops zing went weird on me there

No empty posturing and sniping here, please - this is the 2016 presidential nomination thread.

Eric Foner.

Denmark might as well be Disney World to a lot of Americans. That was an interesting article with some names I've never heard before.

Well, to be fair, Americans actually visit Disney World.

One of the reasons that I don't really like Bernie Sanders is because I know how shitty Denmark is. He really should look at American radicalism, and today, that means of course BLM most of all.

yeah i've always heard that denmark is a terrible shithole
