Again, equating Obama to Duke is bad. It's a horrible take and not grounded in reality. Obama was not the president of Israel, he owed allegiance to the US. The fact that he didn't bend over backwards for Israel doesn't mean he dislikes Jews.
But why did he bend over backwards for Iran with that terrible nuclear deal? Why did he alienate our only true democratic ally in the ME? Why is he associating with Louis Farrakhan? They are very friendly. We agree that Farrakhan wants all Jews dead.

Iran is Israel's #1 enemy.

The Iran deal wasn't accommodating to Iran.

The people who hated the Iran deal in Iran were the same people who want Jews eradicated.

How would you start healing the divisiveness in this country?
I would get the feds out of education and give more control to the states and local govt. I would get rid of tenure for all educators. I would get rid of the teachers union. I would allow the schools to hire the best teachers under the budget provided. No school on the planet would have 6 vice-principals. Counties and states would determine the text books used. I would bring prayer back. I'd make it easy to fire about half the educators currently employed. Employment based on results.

Except for the supremes, I would subject the judicial to 1 year elections mandatory sunshine laws including party affiliation and last year decisions printed in the local and state papers. Also must have debates and expose themselves to public scrutiny and discourse. No more ivory towers.

I would build the wall and follow the law.

I would demand caps for lawsuits, lobby efforts, everything attached to $$$$.

I would bring back the death penalty for white collar crime. I would insist on term limits for elected officials. Outlaw baseline spending.

And I would clean up the media.

That doesn't remove divisiveness.

That creates an authoritarian regime.

That is scary.

Oh. Well if those are your extremists, the new party wouldn't be very moderate. It would be like 98% of the electorate.
No. I mean a new party is not feasible we need the Left to denounce the crazy leftists like Farrahkan, Waters, Lemon, Ocasio-Cortez and for the right to do the same with Bannen, Duke, Spencer.

In reality if you elect Ben Shapiro POTUS you'd solve a lot of ills. He is logical.
Ben Shapiro is a bad-faith arguing, *******. He would not be a good president.

And you can't equate David Duke to Don Lemon or Ocasio-Cortez. Jesus, you're stupid.
Why not?

In what way? They got tons of money they are using as we speak to ferment WWIII and they still get to make missiles and nukes.

rsp, am I reading / interpreting something wrong, or are you seriously trying to argue that the thousands of black-on-black murders in this Country are less a concern than the hundreds (if that) killed during domestic terrorism? Isn't that counter to claiming that Black (or All) Lives Matter equally? Shouldn't the concern be on the problem that's killing more people?
They are both an obvious concern. I guess I’m pointing out that poor urban people killing each other and white guys shooting up schools and places of worship are both indicative of the larger problem. I’m not going to discount the one with a smaller number because that number would get eqalized pfq if one white guy blows up a stadium.
So, only a white guy could possibly blow-up a stadium? Isn't that a racist comment?

Please...show us the difference. Between the ones who want them dead sooner then later.

Don't just throw this stuff out. Show us.

We were talking about specifics. Anybody can blow up a stadium if they have their **** together well enough, sure. That wasn't the point though. Are you really trying to paint me as a racist? Because that's incredibly wrong. Doesn't it sound dumb to say something like "So only black guys can kill people in Chicago?" If you want to have an intelligent conversation as you've professed than tell me how Don Lemon is racist towards Kanyizzpipe? They're both black. Is Lemon a closet white guy of some sorts? I want to get your point but I don't think I know what it is...

Doug spends hours of his life with Limbag and wants other people to bring him research on a silver platter. Maybe lay off Limpbawl for an hour or two and do some CRITICAL research on these topics on your own.

Hire and fire teachers at will. Government controls the message. No Unions so anyone who steps out of line is mistreated.

I would demand caps for lawsuits, lobby efforts, everything attached to $$$$.

No protesting.

I would bring back the death penalty for white collar crime.

More capital punishment.

And I would clean up the media.

State-controlled media message.

Seems like an authoritarian regime to me.

Hardliners vs moderates?

The difference in extremities is like you vs CCCP.

Because it IS. And that's what Doug wants.
