Nod to 80's snl gold.....

and she would move up in the organization with that attitude. They really are that stupid.

for one of those plumbs should the unthinkable happen.....

...and don't expect to be paid either way

"unsung heroes" is what the prefer to be called.

Think we can pick up her vote?

LOL

Should be easy to take down a few more, they tend to insert foot in mouth frequently.

The probably use the Trump method of apartment rental. Is that a suntan or your natural color? Sorry no apartments this week!

to that company.

Civil Rights Act is nothing to mess with.

she cannot have the slightest appearance of bigotry. There will be testers and she could lose her license if there is an indication that she is steering, or treating one set of people differently than another set of people. I saw an entire franchise taken down because of blatant steering.

What does that mean?

if tRump won her state, she would have voted for him in the "real" election

I mean hell, I miss her already.

You get to do that when you're tight with the state party.

That's why candidates that have more of the popular vote still lose elections

The EC system is corrupt and antidemocratic IMO

...they wanted a Republic. We always have to remember that those founding fathers were nearly all educated white guys from respectable if not rich families. They had very strong opinions on the uneducated commoners running the show. Jefferson and a few others aside, Democracy meant, to most of them "mob rule."

Hence the original voting rules which required all voters to be white and male AND own land. Also, the states with low populations didn't want to those with big populations to always be picking the president. So that factored into the EC's creation. And hey, given Donald Trump, maybe the founding fathers had a point about not going for a straight-up, majority wins voting system.... I almost wish there was some kind of oral test making sure voters or at least candidates had a basic understanding of the constitution and American history That alone would have saved us from the Donald.

Maybe you don't know the history how literacy and other tests were used to prevent African-Americans from voting. How one of the key provisions of the Voting Rights Act prohibited such tests.

You know who agrees with you that there should be a "civics" test for voting? Jonah Goldberg of the National Review. And Ann Coulter.

Think about that for a second.

"Who's the bestest president ever?"
"How long did it take Obummer to destroy 'Murika?"
"When's Hillary gunna taker yer gunssss?"

...unconscionable thing (being an ignorant bigot equal to Coulter & Goldberg) without first making sure they were right. But I guess that's my bad for forgetting the emoji (my apologies for that). Still. You couldn't give me the tinest benefit of a doubt? Enough to politely ask "exactly what do you mean?" Because, if you asked rather than jumping to that conclusion, I would have said that IF I were REALLY proposing such a test (which I AM NOT, I AM NOT, I AM NOT, it's just ), but if I was, it could be taken written or oral (no literacy required) and the government would have to provide free classes at churches and schools and, well, just about everywhere so anyone who wanted to vote could pass such a test.

And I would have explained, that my whole point was that Ann Coulter, Donald Trump and almost all Trump voters in their arrogance would probably not take the classes and, thus, fail the test. Because they're convinced they know what the constitution says. Convinced they know American history..but don't. And I would have explained that such classes might educate American voters so they'd recognize and challenge the lies about America that Pailn and Trump and Coulter tell them. Which, alas, they aren't at the moment. Which shows that the education system is failing ALL American and not preparing them to BE well-informed voters.

Are you getting my point yet? Or do you still want to believe that someone HERE would really, honestly, and without argue Ann and Jonah's points? Because if you'd bothered to ask me about it, rather than throwing that accusation in my face, I'd have told you: NO, I'm not actually and genuinely proposing any sort of test.

But you believed I was. I wish that was hard to believe.

elite against the pressure of universal suffrage that is true

But the constitutional impediments put in place to prevent popular rule are still in place

The electoral collage was created to put the final selection of the president in the hands of the wealthy and established citizens at the expense of the poor, non white and foreign born masses in perpetuity

The case of this woman brings that injustice into focus

She is an obvious racist who, as an elector, gets the final say over who is president in spite of how the popular vote falls in any state

That's why it took over 80 years to defeat slavery; another 50 years for women to get the vote and not until the 1960s were Blacks finally allowed to exercise the voting rights they earned after the civil war

You can blame the Republican system of the electoral collage and individual state control over voting right for that and other injustices

Parliamentary government also has a dark history of anti democratic institutionalized oppression but it is far more amenable to reform IMO

...was that it was the system set up by the Founding Fathers. We tend to idolize the FF's as being democratically minded, but even those who weren't wealthy landowners were anti-universal suffrage. John Adams (not poor, but by no means on par with wealthy plantation owners) was VERY anti-slavery, but he certainly didn't want to give everyone and anyone the right to vote.

As for making sure that only landowners could be elected to office, the logic here was that the "gentleman" politician was actually *less* corruptible than the man who had no money or land. Because the man without money or land, so many of the founding fathers believed, could be bought. A man with money, land and leisure couldn't be bribed and would only focus on doing what was best for the country, not himself.

Again, I'm not saying this logic is right or true. But it was the way they thought.

there own in the wilderness. They left the exploring to poor Scottish accountants working for the Hudson's Bay Company A company that owned Canada until 1867 and beyond

Kathy Miller believes racism didn't exist before 2008.

Trump supporters are kind of stupid, no?

America is a post-racial society. Race relations are fine
except for those uppity n------ making trouble.

It all comes from their definition of racism, the oppression
of white people.

Which reminds me: did Trump ever give his estimate of how many of his supporters fit in that basket?

since the 1960s."
This is a often repeated meme coming from white bigots and I have been hearing it since the sixties.

but they can't take a chance on losing Ohio, so...

Sooner or later these Cretins will crawl back under their rocks, where they belong.

Jealous that he saved us from the Bush depression, killed bin Laden, and is a true family man on his first and only marriage, which is more than we can say for most of the "Good Christians(TM)" in Congress. Jealous that Obama has more presidential material in one of his sperm cells than Trump does in his entire vile obese orange body.

... for being an ignorant, useless piece of slime ...

It's because she is so insulated from any contact with black folks that she has no clue about anything to do with them. Also, she must totally lack empathy!

Don't worry she will be back.

Typical.

The fact that she got too overt and had to slink away doesn't change the fact that there are hundreds of thousands (or even millions) just like her, actively supporting Trump in the same manner, if a little more subdued. Nothing has been said about them, and they have infiltrated every aspect of our media--print, online, and radio/TV, and plenty of them are "public servants," in name anyway.

Tracy Winbush...

cheerleaders Are they that bought and paid for they don't care that he hates them?

Best resign and let some other tool fill in for me.

Mrs. Miller is obviously an imbecile and looking at her picture she is fugly (fucking ugly) too! She and Amarosa make a good pair of deplorables!
