It's a bit too angular for my visual tastes, but again, it's just a logo.

North Carolina because the Koch network spent $8 million against her in 2014. That helped tip the Senate. $27 donations will do nothing about that. Wake up and get serious instead of creating such a senseless thread.

The Koch network has budgeted $889 million for this cycle. Sanders and his supporters demonize big donors on the Left. Ask Kay Hagan how that worked out for her.

then you can feel free to live in a feudalist monarchy, but I'm gonna stand and fight. Change doesn't come about by using the system you don't like to change it. History shows this. You have to fight the system to win. Period.

If that happens, Citizens United isn't going anywhere. You might not like a 65 mph speed limit but you won't drive 45 mph because you'd be a danger to yourself and E drone else on the road.

But, the $27 brigade is more concerned about a logo. These people are foolish as well as extreme. Logos ? Really ? They have no clue what we're up against.

Unless you've been out of the loop for some reason, you'd know that Hillary's "losing election strategy" has won her the nomination.

Beat a more liberal opponent. Then she worked hard at being a good bi-partisan moderate Democrat, who served her Wall Street masters. then she lost badly to a crazy conservative.

History will repeat itself.

Not remotely similar.

Also the only remotely similar colors are backgrounds, but they aren't the same shade at all.

And second, they are pretty similar. The first letter logo's color schemes and textures are strikingly similar.

The colors are close enough to warrant a copyright policy from Apple I suppose. To the rest of the world, it's desperate.
