I find it very hard to understand how all that "experience" you claimed was imperative to possess in the office of POTUS, has suddenly gone right out the window.

That only applies to non-whites.

Yes but you have a moral compass.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I still stand by that.......and I suggest you look at Trump a little more closely and perhaps actually listen to him speak, and not just the sound bytes that NBC plays.

He is by FAR more qualified as a leader than anyone else in the field.  Just look at the excitement he is generating through his campaign.  He is blowing the doors off of his competition.  Getting people behind your ideas, so they put pressure on congress to PASS those ideas is something, I believe he will be very good at.

His ability to assemble qualified people to be successful is first and foremost.  Probably the most important part of the POTUS.  Having good people around you to make informed decisions.

He knows how to negotiate. He has done it all his adult life. 

Tell me, how is it Hillary is more qualified?  Just because she was a senator and SOS, doesn't mean she is automatically qualified.  If she was good at those jobs, then I would say YES.  But she did nothing as a Senator and was horrible at SOS. so....yeah.

I know, I know...I'm not selling this to you guys....you already hate him and any republican out there.....so, you just vote Hillary and say everything will be the republicans fault when SHE becomes unsuccessful.

Same ol same ol....

That is why Trump is exciting to me.  Let's try somebody different.  Not another "politician".

A vote for Trump is a vote for bigotry.
Not even going to click on this.

This is just more liberal, BS....plain and simple.  Talk about the uneducated voters.........THEY are the one's that fall for this propaganda BS.

Not even you are stupid enough to deny that Trump is unabashedly bigoted.  It isn't as though we all haven't known you're a bigot for some time though.

Just for the record, who is "we"?  I love the way you make sure you get your buddies to side up with you on your posts and jokes.

I am no more bigoted than you are.  It is just an easy way to try to win an argument.  Call people names.

I've watched some of all the debates on both sides except for one Democratic and one Republican debate.

I've been watching them but after the last one, don't see the point any more.  It was a ridiculous display that portrayed both Cruz and Trump as adolescents on a playground.  I'd have had more respect for them if they had just ripped off their shirts and duked it out.

Spot on!  They acted downright childish in the debate.

I've been watching them.  What a difference between the two parties.  One is civil and acting like mature adults and the other one is like watching a bunch of undisciplined spoiled children.  Henry, I don't have to tell you which is which, right?   :wink:
