Yeah, if the "Bernie or Bust" crowd comes to their damn senses. It was obvious from the polling data that he was never going to win, regardless of superdelegates or any supposed rigging of the primaries (the latter a patently ridiculous; in states with primaries instead of caucuses, Bernie's share of both the popular vote and the pledged delegates was effectively identical, which kind of disproves the notion that Hillary "stole" any delegates).

...I don't think you quite understand the charges. The charges are that the DNC effectively acted as an additional campaigner for her, using their influence over reporters and meetings to encourage on-the-fence voters to vote for Hillary rather than Bernie (one email, for instance, had a DNC official working in West Va. and Kentucky asking if he should use Bernie's religion to try and win over votes for Hillary). It isn't that the DNC ignored or covered up votes for Bernie, it's that they actively helped Hillary win over voters, which a political party committee is not supposed to do in its own primary.

Fact 1: Turkey has been a muslim state for over 1000 years, ain't nothing gonna change that.

Fact 2: Turkey is still more secular than all the Arab nations combined

Fact 3: You're praising a dictator who gassed thousands of innocent people, you make me sick

Fact 4: The "Islamist dictator" Erdogan tripled Turkey's GDP and brought welfare to the country, unlike the butcher you worship that brought nothing but misery and pain, even 10 years after his death Iraq is still a mess, may he burn in hell for eternity.

Who cares what you Westerners think? It's the West that turned the middle east into this mess, the British Empire came here a 100 years ago, drew some artificial borders and the region is still hurting because of it. The middle east had stability and peace for over 700 years under the Turks.

It's funny that I cannot tell you are serious or not, because, let's face it, you can't just start to shitpost your new dictator even if you dislike him because that's quite a little bit risky at the moment. Sad, ain't it? 

Also, blame yourselves and a medieval culture who wallows on religious obscurantism, coupled with overpopulation and an idle young population who can't find a job and decent living standards, for the perpetual crisis you live in. Not artificial borders who have been drawn for countries and empires (like the Ottomans - not to mention borders are artificial by definition, so that's quite an oxymoron here) because there are many regions in the world where different cultures can live within a single state with much less tension.

Really? Can you name a few? because as far as I know when 2 or more indigenous cultures have been forced by conquering or colonising powers to live as a single country things always go bad.

How long do those Trump Towers stay there as Turkey becomes more and more an Islamic state?

Secularism is a good thing, it's about time the Middle East learned that, having a bunch of religious nuts running your government leads to third world countries. 

There's a reason Westerners now are avoiding Turkey like the plague and Russians too. Instead of embracing the ideals of Western secularism they're running backwards to a mideval/dark ages ideology.

Whoa easy with putting words in my mouth. 

Look at every developed country in the *21st century*. Notice they are basically all secular states. Blaming the West for all the ills of the region is just a convienant scape goat, the Middle East will never get anywhere if it uses the West as the be-all bogeyman.

That political compass website is a joke. Not the idea of a two-axis chart itself, which is better than the simplistic single-axis left-right spectrum typically used in political discourse.  Rather, their quiz is structured in a way (mainly via loaded and/or poorly-phrased questions) to preferentially shift the results to the bottom left hand of the chart. Furthermore, their insistence that conservative parties in the developed world are literally a couple of steps away from Hitler and that even centrist and center-left parties like the Democrats and Labour are far-right authoritarians is patently ridiculous.

A better two-axis chart would be the one from On The Issues.

Woof. No more than 50% aligned with any politician on any of those issues.

The only candidate that has proved to be significantly above the law is Hillary Clinton-

Unless you are from China, you should not want Hillary winning- she will continue to erode the US as a country like the current Pres

If you don t like Trump or what he stands for then fine- but the childish small minded and wildly inaccurate accusations/insinuations of this nature are weak -

Let each candidates values and track record speak for themselves-



fatslob-:O on 27 July 2016

He's not the Emperor we need but the one we deserve and especially in the face Clinton who is a byproduct of the rigged system ...

The Bernie or bust crowd isn't wrong for protest voting against Clinton and even giving the advantage to Trump when their party leaders aren't going to respect their own democratic process which happens to include superdelegates ...

Wait, is China or India supposed to be a good example of intermingling cultures? Or was this just sarcasm?
