Adults vote for policies….not persons.

[PoliticalChic]

If I got a quid for each different reason folk vote, I would be a billionaire.

America is a nation that votes more based on character than policies. In the UK, Labourites always believe it's Thatchers fault and they raise their kids believing as such. So those generations without knowing anything about Thatcher vote Labour.

A democracy is only as strong as the education of it's people, it's why politicians keep state education dumbed down.

There are lots of reasons.....but adults can prioritize.

Three years ago, Austrian Pastafarian Nico Alm adherent to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster showed up at his local police station to apply for a new drivers license. In line with an Austrian law which stipulates that the only headgear allowed in official photos is required religious headgear, Alm wore a pasta sieve on his noggin, handle cocked to the side.

In the letter, Henderson asked the Pastafarian version of intelligent design to be taught to schoolchildren as an alternative to the Christian theory, demanding that it receive equal attention to evolution and intelligent design. Henderson published the letter on his website, earning a wide response from good-natured atheists and agnostics who related to his point.

Since then, Pastafarianism has grown into a real fleshed-out religion. Their core belief is that pirates are divine beings who have been slandered over the years by Christians, but who were originally peace-loving explorers and spreaders of good will who distributed candy to small children. They claim that global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of pirates since the 1800s, ...

Are you a Pastafarian?

I remember Nick Clegg (UK Liberal Democrat) was live on TV with a camera crew wandering about asking the public how they were going vote with Brexit. A guy said, "I'm voting leave because I want house prices to crash so I can get on the property ladder". I think house prices have just been going silly high since then.

That moment in time made me realise that folk vote for truly bizarre reasons.

People prioritise to their criteria and not to everyone elses.

To be perfectly clear, the number one reaon for voting for Trump is the importance of free speech.
That's my vote.

Well, I'm British and I would have voted for Trump because under the Democrats with the border, Americans would soon be a minority.

Political corruption in America left the Demofks with no choice but Biden.

What the fk could they have been thinking?

But what else could they have done with the situation causing a complete loss of faith of the working class!

Trump's one party system was the only answer the working class were willing to swallow.

It will remain that way as long as Trump avoids public appearances that could be too risky.

I was in Europe during Brexit and the Brits I met all sounded like they would vote for Trump.

Well, Obama stuck his nose in and tried to preach to the UK voters to remain. That tipped the balance to leave.

I’m planning to build the Second Pastafarian Church in Norman Oklahoma between now and 2052. I’d love to find about a dozen Pastafarians that live in Norman Oklahoma. So far I have found zero Pastafarians anywhere. I think this will be more of a “build it and they will come” kinda thing. I’m ok wasting my life on this project with zero results.

No worries. Thanks for the response.

Very laudable .

But, if 90 %+ of people have an IQ under120 and around the same percentage are Gullible , your assumed definition of "Adults" is a ghastly hindrance , and has little useful contribution toward promoting the idea of a Useful Democracy .

Which, imo , is in main part why Deep State thinking should not be totally disregarded .
BECAUSE , apart from the Essene Monk --- re-invented as Jesus , nobody in their right mind should want Stupids and Gullibles other than as pets and curiosities .

Perhaps harsh and unfeeling , but as Sherlock said -- the left- overs is something remaining after all the other factors have been exhausted .

You are the one assuming.

IM2 that reply of PoliticalChic just made you look like the usual racist prick you are.

I'm not the racist here. It's funny how white racists on the right try turning our opposition to their racism into racism. And Poli Chics idiocy did nothing.

Because nothing she said was true. Gas was not 1.80 under trump. And when gas was low it was because nobody was driving. The oil boom started with Obm. Trump created the border problem, crime rose, Iran was not in pocket, Russia has increased attacks in Ukraine under Trump, I can go on an on.

Barack Obama did the hard work of rebuilding an economy that was at an historic low. It has been said that Obama inherited the worst economy since FDR. In February of 2009, Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. According to the National Bureau of Economic Research the growth period from this policy began in July 2009 and continued through January 2020. People gave Trump credit for economic growth that began 8 years before he took office. Obama rebuilt the economy and created a record decade of growth even with Republican obstruction and austerity policies that actually slowed down economic growth. Despite the opposition, Obama set a record for job growth that began in 2010, 7 years before trump took office and lasted until 2019, which was Trumps third year. Obama created 8.1 million jobs. Trump is given credit for 6.5 million. Trumps best year of job growth was lower than Obamas last 3 years. Obama came into office when the nation was hemorrhaging jobs, losing thousands of jobs per month. Trump entered with an economy experiencing record growth. He had everything he needed to create more jobs than Obama but didn’t. The pandemic is no excuse considering nations with fewer resources than we had experienced less economic harm.

I say these things because all during the Biden presidency Trump made sure to tell everybody how great the economy was when he was president and how there was little to no inflation. People bought that lie even after it was shown and explained that the inflation we were facing was global. Every nation on earth suffered from inflation at the same time.

I took a vacation from this place for a little bit over a year. When I came back the race/racism forum didn't exist. Neither presidential candidate used race in the 2024 election. Has racism ended? If so, does that mean we can expect racism to be ignored in the 2028 and 2032 presidential elections as well?

You are the forum racist, colour is important to you, you can't see people, you claim racism happens to you everyday but you went quiet when I asked for the last 14 days of instances, and what did the police say when you reported them. So that's covered your bullshit.

Obama was mixed race, you Google his parents. As for his legacy -

Barack Obama sealed his racial legacy the moment he sealed victory in the 2008 election.
