You woefully overestimate what if civics is taught in k-12. Even in college the only way you’re learning about primaries is if you take government/political science classes. And even then, only if you choose that elective. I majored in poli sci and in my entire education I only leaned about this stuff in a specific

Fair or not, as probably the most famous trans woman, who transitioned in the public eye no less, and who has taken a bit of a spokesperson role... caitlyn’s political opinions are of interest. Khloe? Meh.

Last time my family was back in England we were waiting for the train and the platform next to us was going to 'cockfosters' and my brother laughed for DAYS.

The research on the link between drugs like LSD and schizophrenia isn't conclusive. Some research shows a correlation but it doesn't show causation. Work in mental health, regularly have classes/training on this sort of stuff.

I didn't say anything of the sort.

It *just happens* to have worked out that despite his male/female ration in his whole staff being equal, there are no women at all in the top ten earners on his staff? K.

I had the same reaction you did, and I dislike it very much.... but I also think it's part of the strategy? If we accept the premise that Obama nominated a centrist strategically and not because that's who he really wants to see on the court, can we accept that he did so with the intent of withdrawing that nominee if

This is why I get frustrated when people say things like social issues are just there to divide us and the REAL issues are corporate interests and economic inequality. Well... you're right... social issues are used as a wedge to further the behind the scenes interest... but that doesn't make them suddenly not matter.

On the delegate note, in the same interview Sanders strongly implied that if he is still behind in pledged delegates come the convention, he'll try to win over superdelegates to clinch the nomination anyhow. I get that he wants to win, and it's bad campaign strategy to say you aren't going to do every single thing in

Agreed, that's exactly what I said after hearing Sanders say this to Maddow. It's unfair to imply that Obama chose a centrist nominee because that's what he really wants when what he's doing is being strategic.

Wtf is with this whole nonsense about men refusing to buy tampons for their wives/daughters? I have never encountered this in the wild but I’ve heard of it from multiple people and I’m....what...I don’t even understand why this is an issue?

This being on Netflix is the best news I've had all week!

Because when you’re a woman in Hollywood and their are precious few speaking roles to be had you take what you can get?

Same. I’m 27 and I have never looked better or felt more confident. I’ve got more of a belly than I used to but meh. My curves are kicking, my baby face is coming into its own, I finally figured out my best hair and make up looks. I was a cute 18 year old....but I’m smokin’ hot at 27.

OH MY GOD. I've been trying to place who Kasich reminds me of for MONTHS and you nailed it.

I am not your wife but fist bump her for me will ya?

Thanks for reasonable responses, and for not being someone that’s so entrenched in this rhetoric that they won’t vote for Hillary if she does become the nominee.

You're right that it is a matter of priority, and someone in another thread expressed this really well....income inequality and campaign finance are important

That term is perfect! It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for when I’ve been trying to explain to people what bothers me about Sanders, even though I’ve been supporting him so far. His economic policies are fantastic and they make my socialist heart beat fast but his social justice bonafides outside of that are

Symone Sanders is no relation to Bernie Sanders.

I hate this “just happens to be men” thing that comes up in every single conversation about representation and equal pay. Things don’t “just happen.” Things happen the way they do because of systems that are in place. It didn’t “just happen” that there are more male CEO’s named John than there are female CEO’s *at
