I will keep doing, but not worth it! The 2016 Presidential Primary Voting Thread

k3vin is hoping for a Dem hope after an eight-year Cuban administration.

well i'm just assuming that if a democrat does win this election, which seems likely, then that same person is likely to have the nomination in 2020

you might wanna factor in the actuarial tables with this pair.

It is kinda creepy that Poppy Bush is the only one-term president many of you can remember.

I'll put money on hillary being a one term prez. Altho who the GOP could field to beat her is nightmarish to consider.

Hell, I'm so old I even remember a half term prez.

it took 20 years to make it official, but yeah

If Clinton and Schumer are in charge next year, it'll be a smooth transition for him.

HMMMMM? You mean being old enough to know that "Reagan was a political genius" is horseshit, sonny?

god hearing his voice again, arhghghghhghghghghg
it's pavlovian, i can't deal with this.

the PAC name "Right to Rise" is one of the most incredible aesthetic feats in modern politics imo

A firefight on sexism/Clinton/Sanders broke out on a famed gay writer's FB wall, and my God it made me not want to live much more than even these threads. tabes showed up in good form.

I don't remember the GHWB years at all. I don't think I knew who was President until the 1996 election.

ford was the first person i really remember. i mean i knew nixon's face and who he was but i remember seeing ford talk on t.v. and chevy made him a human for us. and then of course the 1976 thing was such a huge year for me as a kid. me and neighborhood kids got in the paper for writing carter grafitti on the sidewalk. election fever. bicentennial hoohah. and then carter just looked sadder and more tired on t.v. every year. but we had billy to keep us entertained.

i was a big bush supporter in 1992

and then carter just looked sadder and more tired on t.v. every year.

See, that's the Carter I personally remember. Everyone always went on about his big smile and pearly teeth, but I only knew him as

^^ Know what the context is of that photo? Answering questions about the Iran hostage crisis? No. Addressing concerns about Three Mile Island? No....

... He's officially announcing that he will run for a second term in 1980.

this is the Jimmy C I remember. jumping jimmy carter, they called him.

not much worth remembering, other than his classic "no new taxes" gaffe, Iraq War, and that he liked making short people feel bad.

and the puking

dana carvey pretty funny though.

xpost lol forgot about that. my 5th grade class was clowning him the day after that

For me Hillary's "foreign policy experience" is a huge negative. She voted with W on the Iraq War. She has been privy to the entire post 9/11 shitshow. She is partly responsible for the sorry state of things today (unless her positions have been meaningless) and her current position is to continue the status quo.

I remember Bush going on network TV from the oval office, holding up a big bag of crack, and saying, "my fellow Americans, this is all MINE."

The Poppy Bush years were such a bizarre inter zone -- more than the Clinton years

Holy cow, Jeffrey Sachs is feeling the Bern

Jeffrey Sachs is a Scarborough-"Mika" acolyte, both of whom love "Bernie," so I'm not surprised.

Ah, I see, he's just stirring up trouble for Hill, then?

sachs doesn't even mention bernie sanders in that piece
