Likely it was his fake birth certificate that gave him that protection ... from the statists who control him.

Actually Quayle and Cheney were quite smart. The media attacked both incessantly and from the "get go" You just bought the propaganda.
Gore was power hungry.

Dan Quayle, Al Gore, and Dick Cheney all arguably fit that description. If any of them has brains, it doesn't show.

Ditto............and getting more difficult to keep up!!!!

Biden should have run. In fact-why do no Democrats under their mid-60s seem to have been interested in running?

busier in retirement than when i was working...lol

Biden hasn't a single coherent thought in his head. What sealed it for me was when he advised a double barreled shotgun as a self defence weapon...and then went on to say that you should give a warning shot. Check my math here, but 2-1=1 shot left? Also, in many jurisdictions a "warning shot" equates with a negligent discharge conviction. So, he suggests using a weapon that is entirely inadequate for the task and then encourages it to be used illegally? Is this the guy we want to have a finger on the button?

You're right. I should have written, "Tweedledumb and Tweedledumbest."

Biden and warren: the dumbest among them.

This idea illustrates how much trouble the dems are in. Vote for a crook or a clown? Trump in a landslide.

That sounds like a most excellent retirement.

Robert...thought i replied to this...don't see it...i have stop losses set for all 100+ trades i have open...usually i enter with 45 dte...and exit around 20-25 dte at 50% profit...so if market goes haywire, i have 20-25 dte to work it out...i have read Fooled by Randomness...and The Black Swan...i am retired and watch the market during the day between being farmer john and running errands and watching the boats on the intercoastal and atlantic ocean on the beach in south florida...

When a political power base is at stake there is no limit to what those in power will do to preserve it. Hillary, Biden, even Sanders, are safe but Trump poses an existential threat because he is unpredictable. Nixon was taken down because he erroneously concluded that he was actually the President of the United States. He went off the reservation by taking actions that cost his kingmakers fortunes. Freeing the dollar from gold and opening trade relations with China without warning cost these people billions and they don't take that kind of betrayal kindly. The threat posed by Trump is that he is a wild card. No one can predict what he will do and that kind of uncertainty is completely unacceptable to the true hidden forces behind our government and that of the major world powers. Unless Trump is actually a Trojan horse, which seems unlikely, the more successful his quest for POTUS becomes the greater peril he faces. Not from the people but from the man behind the curtain.

What a racist comment to make about Biden. You have something against people of less color?

(in case it isn't obvious to the ultra-serious "folks" of the gulch, the above is a joke;^)

Now That's a combo...a mental patient and a creature that identifies as Hiya Watha.

You should write fiction.

Right on! "57 states" virtually ignored, but
Trump's "711" instead of "911' wasn't! Par
for the (golf) course, eh?

Biden and Waren: The gruesome twosome.

To paraphrase Biden: "then Mr Thomas asked Ms Hill 'who put this pubic hair on the top of my coke can?'". Classic Biden. No one has clipped it yet so have to watch youtube hearing to find it or it was white washed.

Biden I could live with, if I had to. But Warren would be too much to bear. It would be like a younger Pelosi taking over the White House.

Thanks.

Make sure your derivatives counterparties are safe, in case the market really collapses like it did in 2008. I got burned then, being on the right side of the trade but having to unwind my derivatives (credit default swaps) early because of counterparty concerns.
