If that was allegedly said about Trump, SweetCaroline would be shouting how he's not fit for the presidency. Wonder how she feels about this and Biden?

There have been a few women who have made accusations of inappropriate behaviour by Biden. All of them have specifically stated that they felt it was inappropriate, but not sexual. So, to try to present it as if there was sexual assault is pathetic. Especially if you consider that there is now a list of well over twenty women who have made serious allegations of sexually transgressive behaviour by Donald Trump.

I think Biden running for the office is a joke, but I don't like people here calling him a rapist - whatever happened to "innocent until proven guilty"?

A socialist president is the worst thing which could happen to America. I would never want you to suffer so much.

@pittrek:
Putting aside for a moment that Sanders isn't even a socialist, are you able to understand that your logic, all socialism = soviet dictatorship, is exactly the same as all capitalism = south american junta? I.e., fallacious.
pittrek · Member since
Sanders IS a socialist, even though he calls himself a "democratic socialist" (which is a thing that is something like wet fire). Yes, ALL socialism will end up in a soviet-type dictatorship. Always, with no exceptions possible, even in theory. While capitalism can exist in short term in a non-democratic society, socialism can't, socialism is mutually exclusive with democracy. As soon as you give the people any rights to make any decisions, they will try to dismantle the socialist society

That reply just shows that you hold politically extremist views and have an utterly dogmatic, rather warped view of reality. But, at least you own up to it, so everyone can see how extreme your views are. Meanwhile, socialist parties have ruled democratically (and left office peacefully) in most European countries and many other countries the world over.

These "extremist views" (a.k.a. common sense) are caused by growing up in a socialist country and being the last generation which was forced to study bullshit pseudophilosophy called "marxism-leninism" (thank god only a year). And no, there is no European country which would have a socialist party ruling over them, you are probably confusing socialists with social democrats, just like Bernie when he insulted Denmark by calling their system socialism.

Ah, moving the goalposts (when I say Sanders isn't a socialist you claim he is, and now, suddenly, social democrats aren't socialists - despite the fact that Sanders argues for social democratic policies, not socialist ones), projecting your own experience with one communist dictatorship as normative for all socialism (it isn't - it's not even normative for anti-democratic communism - just compare China, Cuba and the Soviet Union - very different dictatorships) and denying reality (both socialist and social democratic parties have governed democratically in numerous countries. Just a few examples: Attlee's post-war socialist government in the UK (included nationalization of a sizeable part of British industry), current Namibia (socialist SWAPO has governed democratically and it is universally agreed that elections are free and fair), Israel for the first few decades of its existence as a state (note the kibbutzim)).
The fact that you equate Marxism-Leninism, which is indeed stupid bullshit, with socialism is another truly fallacious point in your argument. Only a minority of socialists EVER accepted those doctrines, not even all COMMUNIST regimes accept it (China never did [although, for a time it used the word - in a meaning entirely different from that used by the Soviet Union - which caused no end of trouble between the two countries], Cuba only nominally does) and, despite the name, it doesn't reflect Marx's own writings at all accurately (even flatly contradicting Marx on numerous points) and...most socialists are, and were, non-Marxist.
Your remarks fall in the "not even wrong" category. It is, and I mean this seriously and not as an insult or something, like you use words in an entirely different meaning from the rest of the world and thus draw conclusions that make NO sense to anyone who reads the words in their common meaning.

I Believe Sanders dropped out, so that leaves Biden. I don't give him much of a chance.

Yes, Republicans are very keen to keep a fake scandal in the spotlight to dog Biden through his presidential campaign. Swift boats, Whitewater, Obama birth certificate, Benghazi -- very dirty politics. And yet Republicans give their own candidates a free ride, whether its draft dodging Dubya, fake weapons of mass destruction, or crotch grabbing Donald.

Russia hacked Burisma, I wonder what nuggets will be dug up and presented weeks before the election. Why would Burisma hire a loser like Hunter?
