Sanders starting to kick some HC... whatever

Well, it's basically a tie in Iowa, and Bernie is almost certain to take NH, so who knows ... I've been campaigning for him here in Ohio, canvassing, a little phone banking, had a major event when he did his live remote for supporters (70 people showed). He's my candidate of a lifetime. Hillary is seriously evil. Watch the Clinton Chronicles, or the film about Mena, or read the book about Vince Foster's death (murder / cover-up). I'm originally from upstate NY and Bernie has been saying the same things for 30 years.

Not to be that annoying guy, cause I haven't followed the races that much yet...but ate evangelicals actually going for Trump? I know that in my circle of people that would fit under evangelicals, none of them want anything to do with Trump. So I guess I'm just curious as to whether that's just become a talking point that people are parroting, or whether it's actually true...cause I don't think it's true.

As always in these political races, I find a candidate who I agree with in foreign affairs and who's domestic policies would stink and viceversa, but never a candidate I agree with in both areas. Bernie fits the first of my descriptions. The less we need is another war mongering interventionist president to milk us at home while pouring dollars into foreign affairs, like Hillary the B****y b**** of the West has already been doing. She will go straight for Assad mark my words, and we'll have yet one more mess in the Middle East.

Does anyone know when the Democratic primary is for Utah. I want to show up and vote for Bernie.

Word up bro.
Count me in.

Except I have never voted and don't even know what I have to do to be eligible

I hate it. The EC is terrible IMO. Also why should a few states get such a large say in who we get? I'm not even a fan of the 2 party system.

Agreed on both counts (2 party system and EC)

Utah votes in the primary on June 28th.

Why shouldn't states with bigger populations have more say than smaller ones? That how it would work even if you eliminated the EC.

Because a handful of states decide for all 50.

I don't like the EC, and I think it is a pointless system. But bigger states would still have more sway regardless. It is inherent in a democracy.

Technically it's a constitutional republic.

Still falls under the banner of democracy. Direct democracies are not the only democratic system.

The problem with the EC is that the popular vote can be essentially vetoed by the EC. That to me seems backwards.
