America, Land of Bizarre Politics

How to become the first female president of the United States:
 
1. Beat an openly-declared socialist in the primary.
2. Beat Donald J. Trump, in a popularity contest, in November.
 
Am I missing anything?

Bashing Some Democrats, for a Change

I am sick of certain Bernie Sanders supporters who write about the “Hitlarites” who support Hillary Clinton.

I am also sick of the Hillary Clinton supporters who mock her opponent as “Barnie” Sanders, as in Barney the Clown, or perhaps Barney the purple dinosaur.

My guess is that both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, themselves, are embarrassed by these rude factions of their own supporters, and wish they would just shut up, and sit down.

They’re not helping anyone, except for Donald Trump.

On the 2016 American Presidential Election, and the Whole Sorry Lot Running

A self-righteous megalomaniac. Several far-right wingnuts, from a party rapidly making itself irrelevant by trying to live in the past. A big-government advocate with a past history of questionable ethical practices. And, to round out the lot, an actual socialist.

Sigh. I wish we could vote for “none of the above,” and just leave the White House empty for four years.

Next-best option, in my opinion: if we must have a Clinton, bring back Socks the Cat.
