Seems like more Democrats down ballot would have been elected if the Biden "victory" was legit. Odd for a presidential race winner to have a coat with no tail.
Or the voters split the ticket because they just don't like Trump.Seems like more Democrats down ballot would have been elected if the Biden "victory" was legit. Odd for a presidential race winner to have a coat with no tail.
As I have repeatedly said, "Proof"?if we were allowed to review these mysterious ballots we'd find most only recorded a vote for Biden and nothing down ballot. Faster to gin them up that way.
OK, we can't hold the voters to a higher standard, I guess. What about the candidates? Can we require them to have a basic understanding of facts and economics? That would cull out a lot of unfit candidates, I think. Remember, there are some very good people on both sides, but most of those don't run.Good post. I don't fundamentally disagree with the principle of requiring voters to have some civic understanding, but I think it's very difficult if not impossible to implement fairly. Who decides what is essential knowledge and what is not? How do we prevent it from becoming a political weapon? We've already determined that poll taxes and literacy tests for voting rights are unconstitutional, for good reason.
I agree that the anger and hate some folks have for Trump would cause them to vote for a different candidate based on personality rather than what will be better for our country.Or the voters split the ticket because they just don't like Trump.
That's a tough ask when it's all about winning and the audience votes for the guy with the best 3-word chants.OK, we can't hold the voters to a higher standard, I guess. What about the candidates?

Supposed to be a secret ballot you or I have no right to know how each voter voted personally.if we were allowed to review these mysterious ballots we'd find most only recorded a vote for Biden and nothing down ballot. Faster to gin them up that way.
I agree something needs to be done about China and I think this is a well-reasoned argument. But what most Americans don't realize is that they are paying the "tariffs" and not China. Real change needs to take place and it needs to be done by experts that know what they are doing.I agree that the anger and hate some folks have for Trump would cause them to vote for a different candidate based on personality rather than what will be better for our country.
Other than personality, character assignations, and other innuendos promoted by the media and the opposing party, what are the policies of the existing president that folks don't like. Never hear why he shouldn't be president based on his ideology on domestic and foreign policy. He has been America first.
Almost everything I pick up has "made in China" on it and he was trying to do something about that. With a new administration don't think the America first ideology will continue and our country will suffer the consequences.
Your answer lends support to the need to require voters to be more knowledgeable, aware of the issues, and able to discern the truth. So, I think we need tests for BOTH the voters and the candidates.That's a tough ask when it's all about winning and the audience votes for the guy with the best 3-word chants.
In these modern times, I have learned that there is a stigma associated with "picking cotton". Not sure why. I grew up "pickin cotton". It was the main crop in my area. The local farmers were influential enough that our local school had "summer school". What that meant is that the school year started in late July and continued until the cotton crop was ready for harvest. Then school was dismissed for 6 weeks in order that the students could "pick cotton". Our local school was the last school in the state to have this schedule. You had a burlap bag to put the cotton in. A folded piece of burlap bag was made into a strap that went over your shoulder like a sash and attached to the burlap bag holding the cotton. Pay was 3 cents per pound. A burlap sheet was placed on the ground and you dumped each bag of your cotton on your sheet. At the end of the day, opposite sides of the sheet were tied together to form a bag. The bag was weighed on a pole with "stillards" - a balance beam mechanism that had a fixed weight that was moved on notches on the the beam until the beam was horizontal. Numbers on the notches revealed the weight. You picked a row at a time. Nobody wanted the row on the top of the terrace since the soil was deeper and more fertile and the plants were taller and harder to pick. You could not keep up with your friends on the adjacent rows. "Pickin cotton" was hard back-breaking work. You made about 2 or 3 dollars per day depending on your productivity. Then the farmers got mechanical cotton pickers - one row pickers that attached on a standard tractor that was driven in reverse to pick the cotton. Glad that my cotton picking days are over. Did anyone else pick cotton? I suspect that tobacco work was even worse.As LeRoy so eloquently put it, "If brains were cotton all the democrats combined running for president in 2020 could not gather enough cotton to...........

Raising tobacco is something I am glad I have to never do again. The cutting of the "baccer" was not nearly as bad as the topping and suckering it. But it sure was nice to have that money at Christmas time.I suspect that tobacco work was even worse.
You do know that Obama had all of the airplanes flying all over world spreading the virus in capsule form so when Trump was elected the capsules would burst and affect people all over the world. I know this to be true because my friends kept talking about the contrails from jets all over the world. Proof you seldom see any contrails any more.Haven't you heard?? They are putting something in that vaccine that the new 5G wireless can connect to in order to control peoples minds. A socialist plot I think.....
