New presidential poll - Trump Leads By Only 6 in Texas

Although it seems like some of the questions were designed to gauge how stupid the respondents were. For example, one question asked who you would vote for if the election was between Clinton, Trump, Dez Nutz, and Harambe. Another asked if ACORN would steal the election for Hillary (24% said yes, 36% not sure and 39% said no).

This is a wish (suggestion)

I wish it was possible to set my Preferred Format for each device. You see I have 2 mobile devices - my phone and my tablet. My tablet is a nice 10 inch and I really prefer to use Standard because I can. But if I set it to Standard then access DU on my Galaxy S5 I have to switch it to mobile because it's pretty much unreadable in standard. Then when I go back to my tablet I have to switch it again. Not sure if the next upgrade you could do something about that, such as allowing it to be set per device or something, but that would be nice .

Thanks

Question about political ads on CNN

I'm watching CNN and seeing lots of Hillary ads on CNN. Are these ads regional or are they national ads? Just wondering? Just thinking, if Hillary is running ads in Texas she must feel pretty confident about battleground states. On the other hand if they are national ads then then hopefully they are getting a lot of bang for the buck. Not seeing a lot of Trump ads here. I guess Trump is pretty confident about Texas.

KING: To stop Donald Trump, I’ll be voting for Hillary Clinton

Let's not blow this. I know voting for Hillary Clinton is going to be tough when you believe in your heart that better options were available, but it's time for us to rally behind Bernie and stop Trump. I've never said this before, but I believe that stopping Trump is a national emergency. He is that big of a threat and he is starting to pull ahead in the polls.

This is not a test. This is not a game. Please, join me, join Bernie, and get behind Clinton so that we can stop Trump together. Hold your nose if you must. Do whatever it takes, but please join us.

Democratic Party platform didn't quite say "Legalize It" but came close


2 We believe that the states should be laboratories of democracy on the issue of marijuana, and
3 those states that want to decriminalize marijuana should be able to do so. We support policies
4 that will allow more research on marijuana, as well as reforming our laws to allow legal
5 marijuana businesses to exist without uncertainty. And we recognize our current marijuana laws
6 have had an unacceptable disparate impact, with arrest rates for marijuana possession among
7 African Americans far outstripping arrest rates among whites, despite similar usage rates.

Question about alerted posts

I just voted on a post and it seems like it should have already been decided (it was over an hour ago and I thought it as an inappropriate post about Hillary) but I haven't received the email I usually receive that tells me the results and I can't find the post by searching for it so I'm wondering if it's been removed and if it has, why didn't I get the usual email result.

Could it be that the author self-deleted before the jury decided?

Sanders Responds to Gun Policy Questions



Shared from Linda Foley on Facebook : I can't believe that those extremely well-paid talking heads on the cable TV news shows are so easily pulled into these things, even after having lived through it with Hillary three times now. Why can't they see it for the manipulative process that it is?

Here, let this 74-year-old retired teacher explain it to you:
1) HRC has lost 7 primary states in the last 2 weeks to Bernie

2) they are moving into states that are friendlier to Bernie, including his HOME STATE of NY which is filled with his kind of voters and

2) although the press has still managed not to address the obvious questions about why he is succeeding, the people understand it and so -

3) she must inject a made-up controversy or two and blow them up into major confrontations so that

4) Bernie has to respond and then have his responses be purposefully misconstrued in the worse way possible by the clueless media so as to

5) give her a reason to further vilify him over a non-existent problem and

6) use all that as a focal point in their upcoming debate

7) so as to waste time and not have to answer questions about why Bernie has proven to be so popular and

8) which the moderators will blissfully allow her to do.

Got it? You're welcome.
