For what it's worth - voting lines in NH California...

Early voting lines around the North Hollywood library Sat & Sun were astounding to me - longer than the previous long lines for say Spielberg's CLOSE ENCOUNTERS when it debuted in LA. Sunday it snaked back and around - easily 1/3 to 1/2 mi long.

If you were in a "safe" state like CA or NY...

And Jill Stein came out STRONGLY for basic income, would you vote for her? (Obviously in states still up for grabs you wouldn't)

(disclosure - I'm not a Jill Stein supporter or even know much about her but I am STRONG for Guy Standing and basic income).

What does it take to impeach a Senator (if possible)?

Or bring a charge of conspiracy for treason?

Am I alone in being OUTRAGED beyond belief at this Tim Sloan character?

Wells Fargo’s new CEO, Tim Sloan, told a leading industry trade publication in June 2016 that the bank’s aggressive sales culture and “cross-selling” targets was perfectly appropriate and “is not going to change.” This was years after top executives at the bank knew that thousands of their employees were responding to those sales targets by generating fake accounts.

I've worked for a*holes like Sloan. These are Donald Trumps without the saving grave of being orange. They were at the heart of the S&L scandals and basically every other sh*tty thing done in America. DT will be gone from our concern after the election, it's these lurking a*holes who are ruining America. THE NEED TO SEE SOME JAIL TIME@!

I'd even consider voting for Trump if he'd appoint Eliz Warren as a special prosecutor to go after them! (I'm sure even deep Red state voters would recognize the problem if it was made manifest)

Billion Dollar Loser...

Forget the taxes...

Even Republicans have to wonder if they want a Billion Dollar loser running the government.

Could be a short and sweet 30 second sound bite to throw against the fiscal hawks.

Calling out DT's lies?

After these debates each side claims they win. We know HC has the best positions but I think tomorrow whoever has the best zingers will be termed the winner.

Question - - the media mostly says things like 'not true" about DT's statements, so would HC having the "gravitas" to say something like "Well, DT, you know that's just a lie because on xyz you said on tape xyz..." Would be so nice to hear the word LIE finally make it to primetime about the Yamster.

What's with this police policy of letting shooting victims just bleed out?

Seriously, when they shoot someone they ALWAYS let them BLEED OUT with NO HELP, just standing around.

Mr. Crutcher is just the latest. And NO MEDIA put this FOREFRONT!

This needs to be examined nationally with utmost publicity.
