Yeah and if all the people who dislike both parties voted for the same third party they’d win, but that’s not going to happen either.

Welcome to the post truth era. Nothing matters except the way it makes you feel. Ignorance is strength and rage is fuel. If it feels good it’s true, if it challenges your paradigm, it’s fake news. This phenom is not exclusive to Republicans but they sure do excel at it.

Cool story. That seems to not matter to the Democratic strategists who decided not to invest as much in Florida since they haven’t seen that kind of return in about 12 years now. Im sure you have a better understanding though.

Big fan of The Left Hand Path. It is many things to many people but my understanding is that within the left hand path comes the notion that growth is catalyzed by conflict. If all things align with your morals and situations you have reached stasis. Conflict challenges the self to overcome and grow. Thus I am able to look at a world full of conflict as full of opportunities to grow, and able to understsnd the fact that conflict will always eventually arise as the fact that we will always be able to grow.

My favorite description of America is “Three weapons manufacturers in a trench coat pretending to be a government”

I don’t live in a swing state, I get to vote for whoever I want. Lets not pretend like the election doesnt boil down to half a million voters in like 4 or 5 different states. This is as much a reality as anything you’ve said, probably more.

Because many poeple have decided to uphold the notion America is somehow more complex than other first world nations that magically figured out things like multiple parties, universal healthcare, automatic tax forms, minimum wage that is enough to live on, and state protected maternity leave.

Florida isn’t worth the time to be a swing state. They don’t listen to facts and get more conservative every chance they can. Spending time campaigning in FL for democrats is simply a waste. May as well campaign at a graveyard.

What bothers me is Texas isn’t exactly far ahead of Florida in what they teach kids and they also have massive influence on what books schools across the nation end up using.
