I don't think that we've had a good, let alone great, president in a few decades, and 2016 isn't going to change this trend.

Oh shit we got new reactions told yall the IC was gonna get suped up in 2016. This only the beginning..... The best is yet to come :+1: .

still seems like a lot though. what's the difference between nosign and disagree?
 
AMERICA IS fucked the only question is to what degree and how much in which hole.

If trumps wins there will most likely be increased racial problems as well as potential problems with china, i also for some reason think trump will take america back to a more isolationist foreign policy

if hillary wins social liberalism will increase and american culture will continue to slide into the depths of feminism homosexuality and hedonism more utter foolishness that degrade and destroy any sensible civilization.

 
If Hillary loses Iowa, she will already be in the hole because she is expected to lose to Bernie's neighboring state of New Hampshire. She has to win the South Carolina primary or she is in trouble.

I think Trump is going to get the nomination but the funny thing is Rubio could possibly give Hillary that work in a general election due to him being from Florida and a Latino. I think Trump loses to Hillary, but if Bloomberg jumps in the race, there is no telling which one will win bc Blomberg might siphon votes from both parties in the election.
 
Since Obama proved that no matter who's in office nothing will be done for black folks, can one of you niggas explain to me why I should vote? (I never voted in a presidential election in my life)

1) Obama never proved that. He couldn't be the black president and just cater his presidency to AAs in America. There's not enough of us for that. We're not the majority, so we couldn't elect him on our own (and he got 95% of the black vote in '08). He had to be the AMERICAN president, who was black. That's what a lot of people didn't - and still don't understand.

2) Voting isn't a popularity contest. You're supposed to cast a vote on people you feel are the most qualified to lead. That's where people go wrong at, too.

Obama is not the end all be all for black folk. We have to vote b/c you are not just voting for the president but you are voting for people and proposals that impact you locally (City, County and State positions such as District Attorneys, County Sheriffs, Mayors, Circuit Court Judges, etc). You don't vote and you run the risk having someone getting elected whose ideals and proposed laws don't agree with how you should see it. Plus by voting you can be selected for jury duty and could possibly make a difference on the outcome of a case.

Hilary needs to tool up and be more assertive , its her race to lose

i just dont trust how blacks are gushing over Bernie Sanders ,only to get disappointed and turn your backs on him when his very left ideas end up not working.

Whats Hillary got in hand for black folks tho?

Bernie seems to be the better option imo.

Hillary will basically be more of the same of the past 8yrs.

And fuck Obamacare

Mexicans aren't the majority and he singled them out with immigration laws, gays aren't the majority and he singled them out with gay rights, hell Jews aren't the majority and he gave some of them reparations for some shit that didn't happen here, does that make him the Mexican,Jew,or gay president?

So why do you feel helping black people who are an underserved people in this country makes him a"black" president? It seems like some of you just like waiting at the back of the bus.

I said presidential election not local, and you can get pulled for jury duty by paying property taxes

According to people on here you shouldn't expect Hillary to do anything for black people because that would make her a "black" president and she is the president of all America, that just doesn't include black people

Ain't nobody say shit about riding with Hilary. I'd rather Bernie try and fail then Hilary know shit ain't right out here and not do a fuckin thing to fix it.

Personally, I'm more to go with an Independent.
