    Cohen wants to Abolish the Electoral College

    Ah. I will spell it out: It does not guarantee anything forever- apparently with one exception- see below. That is the way the US Constitution is set up- like it or not. Here is the section on amendments. I've put the one thing that can't ever be changed in bold italics. Article V The...

    Cohen wants to Abolish the Electoral College

    I didn't write the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. The Founding Fathers were smart men, and realized that things could change over time, so they allowed for changes too- in a controlled manner.

    Cohen wants to Abolish the Electoral College

    The Constitution itself allows for it to be changed. Somebody suggested changing it. so bloody what? And guess what- the Electoral College isn't what guarantees liberty. Quite sorry. What does guarantee liberty? The Bill of Rights- which is a set of...amendments.

    Cohen wants to Abolish the Electoral College

    I was only saying that his approach was reasonable. It's not a crazy idea, or evil, or even unconstitutional- since the Constitution allows for amendments. For those who can only think "my idea is right, and anything else is stupid and evil"- it is hard to comprehend

    Cohen wants to Abolish the Electoral College

    Here's what I said. Read it. Do you know what the word "possible" means? It would be helpful if you wouldn't pigeonhole people quite so quickly. My own opinion n the matter? Right now it would be a mistake to change it. If the United States starts thinking of itself as a united country...

    Cohen wants to Abolish the Electoral College

    I didn't even say that I agree with him. I'm just pointing out that you are overreacting.

    Cohen wants to Abolish the Electoral College

    Exactly. This made sense in 1789. It's possible that times have changed, and this no longer makes sense. The Constitution allows for amendment. You can disagree with him, but no reason to get all 'that's not Constitutional' about it. Or- 'they're trying to cheat' about it... It's a legitimate...

    Fiona Hill: "The president was trying to stage a coup"

    Coups aren't normally undertaken by the elected leader of a country. So calling this a 'coup' isn't accurate. What is Presidents Trump's real motivation in recent events? Does he realistically expect to somehow remain president? I'm not convinced of his sanity. I even wonder if he'll commit...

    How far are we down the road to totalitarianism

    So, COVID is a Hoax, and: All government bodies are twisting the facts in order to maintain the hoax. This includes health services, including local bodies and national ones such the CDC. The above is true for nearly all nations on Earth, including communist dictatorships, western...

    How far are we down the road to totalitarianism

    hmm Go to your local hospital and see for yourself. Check local papers for local news- papers that aren't affiliated with MSM. Ask friends who work in hospitals. For example, my niece works as a hospital nurse in northern California. Her ward is being turned into a COVID ward. You don't have...

    How far are we down the road to totalitarianism

    I do think the media is problematic. It is very hard these days to sort out what is real and what isn't- and the media tend to sensationalize everything. Even given that, I find it hard to understand how someone as widely read as you can think this pandemic is fake.

    Is President Trump cutting some of his supporters off?

    It's a common generalization: Republican= Pro Trump Conservative = Pro Trump Critical of Trump? You are, by definition, not Republican or conservative. You are a leftist. And "leftist" means extreme left.

    Covid Vaccination: I'm getting my first dose on Thursday

    I still haven't quite followed what the working hypothesis is. Some group of people (who?) are trying to control us (why?) by...making everybody think that there is a pandemic. They are also deliberately destroying the world economy. Why? What good does this 'control' do for them? They have...

    Covid Vaccination: I'm getting my first dose on Thursday

    Believe it or not, I do open some of the links you post. And I follow the references that they refer to- and discover that they misrepresent things. Consistently. No- I did not check every one of the references. Because the pattern is clear. Take the article from 2005. They did an...
