Depends on how complex it is. Ever see the XML behind SharePoint? 🤮

Old, yes, they are both old. Not elderly, but old. The minimum age for a present is 35. I would very much like to start seeing younger presidents that will be more in touch with what current issues really are and can energize a younger generation of voters.

And yes that was exactly my point on having a white man as an anchor.

It is obviously a cycle we need to break. That said, a campaign has to make choices that lead to victory. Kamala is already a person of color and a woman. If she wins, it would be only the second time to have a non-white President and the first woman.

The fact is that while many us are hungry for change to the old norms, many will be more conservative to change (and I don’t mean in the crazy MAGA way). Having an old white guy on the ticket acts as an anchor for those who are too scared to fully jump into all out change, ensuring that those votes aren’t lost to the other side.

In a written statement to the police, she has alleged that her husband “chained her and left her in the forest to die without food or water”.

Hey, look at that, “mystery” solved within four paragraphs.

Plus it is recycled. They would only replace what is lost due to evaporation or after a drain and cleaning.

My preference would be for them to flip the ticket. Put Kamala as first and him as vice. I don’t really care for her, but it would be worlds better than another Trump reign of terror. Flipping the ticket would be the least destabilizing move and would appease the concerns of age while also keeping him on for those that didn’t like her (or a woman).

Jokes on them, Pikachu would probably like being taxed.

Shocked Pikachu

Kind of makes you wonder who she fucked to pass law school, huh? She seems to be genuinely dumb as a box of rocks.

Yeah, that was Johnson’s failure.

It is NOT a good idea, it is NEVER a good idea. However, in order to avoid it, both sides would have to be willing to talk to each other, in good faith, and work out an agreeable way forward. That is what we used to do. We have always been a divided country, but when it mattered both side could usually work out a mutually agreeable resolution. That has stopped. So, we are divided and continuing to split further and no one will work together. What is the resolution? I don’t see a good one any time in the near future.

Well, I don’t like hot and humid, so most Asian countries are probably out. Most likely some where in Europe. Depends on the current state of affairs at the time.

Well, historically, civil wars seem to end in one of two ways, either the victor subjugating the loser or the country splitting apart. So I would wager the outcome to be one of those.

Honestly, I’m inclined to agree. I also don’t see a way out without bloodshed. Not because I want Republicans to die or think that Democrats are so great that I am ready to die for them, but rather because we have split so far ideologically that I cannot see us ever being united again and we seemingly don’t have any method available for a peaceful divorce.

My personal plan is to leave the country permanently as soon as I retire, but that is 15 years away. I can only hope that things stay somewhat together until then and I will use my vote to try to help it do so.

I predict a guilty verdict for most/all counts and an especially light sentence.

Uh-huh.

The cop “attached” himself to the vehicle. So he is being charged with assault on a police officer because the cop chose to assault himself rather than just pulling the driver over like a sane person.

Honestly, I don’t think anything short of an Eagle Eye situation would make much of a difference.

For those that haven’t seen the movie, a DOD super advanced AI reinterprets it’s core directive to uphold the constitution to mean that the entire Judicial, Legislative, and Executive Branches of the United States Government must be “removed from office” due to corruption with only the exception of the designated survivor.

Yes, and it’s by design.
