Example measure: We separate the role of Commander in Chief from the presidency. We set up a 3 person command council voted on by the public. The council would assume the presidents role in contrroling the military and the state dept. Each member will have a term of six years and a new member will be voted on every 2 years. For the final 2 years of a term that person would be CIC and the US figurehead dealing with foreign relations but would require consent from the other 2 members of the council for certain actions. Most actions could be decided by a majority(2 of 3) with unanimous approval needed for things like a nuclear strike. The command council would have no role in domestic policy.

I dont ever see anything like that happening in our lifetime. It would probabaly take a Civil war to overhaul the government like that.

1) Everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion. Despite this fact, the method of "I FEEL this way about the politicians" is dangerously flawed. Like in anything, EVIDENCE and ACTIONS matter. Speculating about the REAL candidate dismisses anything a candidate has said or done. I think Clinton really finds Trump attractive. If you could give her a serum, she would really find Trump irresistibly attractive. That's fantastic for me, but for anyone who is making a rational decision, we might want to look a facts.

2) Once again, anyone can predict how bad or exactly what the ramifications will be from either candidate. It's a person’s right. Truth is we have no idea. What we can do is analyze what a person has said and done and then compare these actions and words to dozens of historical figures who share the exact actions and expression. After this, we can analyze how these people affected the government and rise/fall of their respective civilization.

This is a much more reliable method than relying on tinkles in our genitals or our gut feelings. Just take a look at all these fools who had no problem expressing their opinions about George Hill without any doubt at all. A few months later, their opinions, based off of their feelings, were shown to be absolute trash. That's why they're scratching themselves on the couch and Dennis Lindsay is calling the shots. Problem is, the ball scratchers are calling the shots in this presidential race.

I don't think the "facts" show Trump a racist.

I unfriended two people on FB over this election cycle. I feel like I'm pretty open-minded and allow people to believe what they believe and didn't anticipate having to unfriend anyone. But two acquaintances of mine used this hostile election atmosphere to reveal their true natures (one letting loose his extreme racist views, the other glorifying sexual assault). In a way, I was grateful to learn more about their character and realize they did not need to be part of my world.

Have we really come to using quotes around the word facts. There are facts about Trump's interaction with minorities. You can disagree that A + B = C, but you can't disagree with the A or B in as much as we as humans determine facts, unless your "opinion" is that the facts are always negotiable, which is a paradox in itself. I don't have time to go through all of the instances, but here's a decent summary. It's apparent that he appeals to you for some reason, so maybe you're not interested.

I put quotations around the word facts to encompass all of the words you used in your post even though you didn't actually use the word facts. Chill out bro.

This article, written by Christopher Hitchens, who died nearly five years ago, has nothing to do with the timing of Comey's amorphous letter and announcement, which have obviously affected the election, and therefore seem to be a violation of the Hatch Act. If Clinton has broken the law, then she needs to be brought to justice, but the FBI should not interfere with our elections, period.
 
Seems really insane right now that Bernie isn't the Democratic candidate. I never read any of the "primary rigging" stuff. What was that about??

It wasn't rigging it was Democrat leaders not wanting a non Democrat to win their nomination. People in the party emailed about what they could do to try and prevent him from winning through campaigning and getting more behind Clinton. Something Republicans should have done to prevent Trump from winning... I know Bernie supporters where outraged but why would the Democrat leaders want a nominee like Bernie (who wouldn't support their platform) to win? Bernie should have ran independent or with a third party from the beginning in my opinion.
