Spin Zone / Re: Trump bails on CPAC
« on: March 04, 2016, 08:51:31 PM »

According to Matt Schlapp, chairman of CPAC, Trump wanted to dictate the terms of his visit to CPAC, including not taking questions.  CPAC wouldn't accept those terms, so Trump didn't show. 

Coward comes to mind.
Unless the other candidates got to dictate their terms, which I doubt, then I'm not sure why he thinks he can get special terms. The speeches should be pretty interesting from the other candidates now that Trump isn't going.

Everyone went crazy when the tumors started that Rubio wasn't going. This is supposed to be a big deal for candidates. We'll see what, if any, fallout comes of this for Trump.

Spin Zone / Re: So will Cruz disavow Beck now?
« on: March 04, 2016, 05:00:34 PM »
I'm not sure why Cruz needs to disavow this. It was a comment made by a radio host against a candidate (or his radio co-host), Cruz has nothing to do with this.

Let's not forget that a sitting U.S. Senator, Lindsey Graham, jokes about murdering Ted Cruz on the Senate floor and nobody getting convicted for it. People say dumb things. Poor choice of words all the way around.

I don't think they should be handled at the federal level, but some of the questions are actually good questions and would have allowed me to better understand the core values of the candidates. But OTOH, why does it matter when its outside the scope of the job, kinda like getting a blow job oral sex in the Oval Office, right?
By saying it's a 10th Amendment issue, that does tell you about their core values. It tells you they believe in the enumerated powers and what should and should not be a federal issue.

You don't actually follow that lunatic, do you? What would he know about friendship and brotherly love? All he does is spew hatred.

I've always liked Kasich, but he is now labeled as the "establishment" guy.  I think he's done a good job as Ohio Governor.  However, he has not shot.
Rubio is also considered the establishment guy. Kasich doesn't have a chance, even if he does win Ohio.

I didn't get a chance to see the entire debate but it was just more of the same stuff. At least they all agreed to support each other regardless of who got the nomination. Trump even agreed to support the others if he didn't get the nomination but I'll believe it when I see it, assuming he doesn't get the nomination which is looking less likely.

Sad, but it seems to be becoming the norm throughout academia.

Spin Zone / Trump Releases 7 Point Healthcare Plan

After reading through it, it sounds like a fairly decent plan. He recognizes that a straight up repeal isn't going to work and that you have to offer a replacement to go with it. He does this and it's reasonable. This plan will definitely take us off the edge of a single payer system.

The numbers show some interesting trends going on across the nation. I guess it's hard to be excited on the democratic side when your two options are a socialist and an unethical, likely criminal. Plus Trump is tapping into a discontent with Washington that only he seems to be able to successfully tap into.

"Blacks were forced into poor housing and poor schools up until the mid and late 1960s. In 2006 there were a record number of cases of discrimination in lending. Preventing tens of thousands from getting financing to purchase homes and autos.
This has been proven false. There is no conspiracy amongst lenders to prevent blacks from getting loans. Lenders are in the business of making money, just like any other business, and they would have gone under had they denied one particular group from getting loans.

Blacks were not given the opportunity to vote until 1964. Even then, 1000s were murdered for trying. In addition, they were also forced to do things such as recite the Declaration of Independence to get to vote. Nearly impossible...."- T.F.
You started another thread on this already and I posted there.

Yes, the past is denied by ignoring the impact on the present.
Please cite, specifically, how in 2016, we are denying the past and the impact on the present. Be specific.

This is what you mock and oppose. And your ridicule and mockery is what divides us.

Wrong. What divides us is continuing to hold onto the past while refusing to move forward. Nobody denies the past or says that it's a bright spot in our history (I'm speaking only on the issue of racism when referring to the past). Nobody wants to repeal the 13th or 14th Amendments. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton continue to make race a business because it lines their pockets. I don't believe for one second that Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are interested in advancing civil rights or they'd setup their main headquarters in Chicago and start dealing with the massive black on black crime, lack of black employment and the problems there. They only show up when a black person is murdered and it hits the national news and becomes a prominent issue.
