    Look, you don't want Pence and you absolutely don't want Trump so I say let's go with the guy who's got the best shot at beating those clowns.

    Throw me the name of a different candidate who has a good chance of winning.

    Probably. I think it has more to do with his crazy ass attorney

    In my perfect world, a moderate would win. Too left or too right drives a stake down the middle of the country, IMO

    Your world sure. I disagree that it works for mine. Even Barack was too far to the right.

    Hell, the fuck, no. Nobody wants Ayn Rand Paul as president.

    Why a Dem or a Rep?...why pigeon hole them as liberal or conservatives?....why not just elect someone with the most common sense and the one who's more interested in doing what best for the country as a whole instead of someone who is more concerned with getting re-elected?

    ...2 party system makes no sense to me...too counter-productive and too dysfunctional.

    I think he actually would be a better one than Clinton,Trump or Joe.
    he lines up more with my way of thinking than extreme progressives or conservatives. But not everything.
    I know you can think of something that he stands for you could endorse? Give it a shot!

    Dude, I'm at work...

    Elizabeth Warren would TROUNCE Trump.
    Bernie Sanders
    Kamala Harris
    Deval Patrick

    That's off the top.

    But there are going to be people that come out of nowhere like Barack did.

    Watch out for Joaquin Castro.

    I respect your right to vote for whomever.
    Warren would be my pick, because she would be the first in line to invite Billy back to the Oval Office.

    Dude, I know I look young but I turned 42 last Sunday. He would not be better than Clinton. Libertarian policies of basically drowning a small government in the bathtub sicken me.

    Bill Clinton?

    Yeah, I gotta disagree with you there. I don't see here having them around. She'd better not.

    Easy dude. You are not on the hook for answers.
    But I like your choices of Warren, Harris, and Sanders. I have no knowledge of the others.
    :cool2:
    Bring it.

    The problem is, I too would like a plausible alternative.

    I'd vote for Elizabeth Warren in a heartbeat.

    If she runs, she wins. She EVISCERATES people in debates.

    If you like debates like I do, go watch her debates vs Scott Brown.

    She'll kill Trump in a debate and he'd say stupid things like "Pocahontas" .
