Did any of you know that Trump is building a high rise

in downtown Vancouver, BC, Canada. It is a massive high rise, I had no idea even though I live here. After going to the Pride Parade and heading to the Skytrain, there is this massive high rise with Trump's name on it. I had no idea that he was setting up shop here in BC. I took a picture but for some reason I cannot link it on here, it is a huge tower.

The Pride Parade was awesome. Each year it seems to attract more sponsors and people who come out to support the event. I wanted beads but they were in short supply, just kidding, just wanted to inject something comical. Oh, and Justin was there too, he looks much younger in person than in pictures.

I really want Mr. Biden to run for President!

Mrs. Clinton is not viable! Am not against a woman president but she is not the one!

Soledad O'brian is on air, which is a repeat, but eveytime

I see what Jim Jones did, it always brings tears to my eyes. I am Guyanese and we had no idea that a cult was existing in the interior. The first time we heard of them was when they applied for membership at the University of Guyana. They were going as the People's Agricultural Temple, needless to say, they were denied any library privileges. Just a few years later, all hell broke lose when the whole community was wiped out by poison. Even MP Ryan was killed when he went there to rescue some people who wanted to leave.

It was a really sad day for Guyanese. When these cases get on air time after time, it makes you realise how wicked some people are. Just wanted to share this with you.

If 22 million Federal employees information have been comprised, will

the It system be changed? And who determine what the change will be?

To be really honest with DUers on here, I do not like

Mrs. Clinton. I feel she thinks she is entitled since 2008. The BS she said about President Obama does not resonate well with me but if she is the Dem nominee, she will be better than any republican. Here again, a country with over 300 million people have only two parties, that is not good. The Green Party does not have a chance.

I really hope Mr. Sanders gain momentum and I really want Mr. Biden to run. I was hoping Howard Dean would run, but it seems he is not interested in running.

Some DUers forgot how mean Mrs. Clinton was during the primaries and am glad that President Obama nominated her as SOS.

I really like Howard Dean. Anyone thinks he might run? I find he is very honest and credible!

Keeping fingers crossed that he will run and Biden too!

I am posting this here as I think it is important.

The US will be facing Japan in the women's world cup final. Did you see the own goal England made?

Great that both teams are meeting again as Japan is the defender.

I know, this is not important given the gains that President Obama made over the last week, which is great, but sports is important too.

Some one asked earlier where this cartoon came from!

I copied it from the daily beast but am not able to post it on here.

It is from caglecartons.com

This may be the wrong forum to post this, not sure!

I want to share a beautiful moment with all of you. My daughter encouraged me to go see the Women's World Cup played here in Vancouver between Japan and the Netherlands. The game was really exciting, I was sort of backing Japan and Japan got a goal in the first half and got another goal in the second half. Lo and behold, Netherlands got a goal in extra time, I was happy that they did not go out without a goal.

Let me tell you something, seeing a game live beats anything on TV. Just wanted to share a beautiful moment with you all.

Best regards,
