That second non-trevorsy also helps to deflect from Trump's plans to speak at an anti-gay rally in Orlando.

barf.

It's pretty fucked up that on a website dedicated to pop culture obsessions, and commenters are bragging about never hearing about someone.

And that the guy who pisses in your cornflakes quits doing it.

People are frustrated with Netflix because it mirrors general disappointments with facebook: your childhood favorites aren't as cool as you remember them, others disappear without warning and the remaining ones are like—here's a link to a political documentary.

If you honestly believe this then you need to google anna kendrick ass.

One of the problems for third parties is that many states who restrict voter access to polls also restrict ballot access for outsider parties. Oklahoma requires a candidate to win 50,000+ votes (ie 10%) via fucking write-ins before their party is recognized. Some states like North Carolina don't allow citizens to even…

and all the registered Republicans staying home on election day would be a great outcome for Clinton.

Honestly, it's already there. We talk about gay marriage but not the fact that in plenty of states you can get fired just for being gay. There are good pushes for being more open and accepting but expending very little effort towards correcting the class issues that have always plagued the US. Young activists some…

There was no way that the Democratic party of that time should be described as "left wing." Maybe "liberal" in that they were pro-Free Trade, but they were the party of Jim Crow, the railroads and the gold standard. Once Bryan rose to prominence with his "Cross of Gold" (continuing what this campaign started) did they…

They weren't progressive in any sense until William Jennings Bryan became a leader of the party.

What you are forgetting is that in the foreign policy debate Gore extolled the virtues of nation-building. Assuming nothing changes before 9/12, Gore would've still mired the US in at least one foreign war and occupation. Likewise, when you look at the Dem tendency of talking themselves into war (ie Kennedy and LBJ in…

If Pat Buchanan voters had voted for Bush, Bush would've won the popular election.

You're an asshole.

Obama's run was four years in the making. Bernie's was almost overnight.

He got amazing Asian and Native American numbers. He won the only white minority state (Hawaii). It's almost as if diversity isn't a binary.
