Who do you want to be the next President of these United States and why?

Re: Next President ___________ ?
Neither... Not that I get a say. Surely there must be an American somewhere that has better skills and qualities to run the country? Why is it always a choice between two people?
I'm a bit worried about here. We have been with conservative for a long time but the problem is that everytime people get restless and it seems that they want Tories out, there is a massive media push and somehow so many people end up voting a 3rd option in the hopes of change but all that does is prevent labour getting in. You end up with a hung parliament with conservative taking the reigns. And people are already talking about voting for a minor party in the next election. My vote won't make a difference because of where I live. There are areas that will have the same outcome every year regardless.

The ballot for a presidential election in America always has a list of people to choose from, some five or six, I forget exactly.The idea is to find one with the most votes so people collect into a party to try and get enough votes. That usually shakes down to two parties. The others almost always remain small.Imwashingmypirate wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2024 11:09 pmNeither... Not that I get a say.

A good alternative to Biden has not made themselves known. I do not think Biden is great but I think he is level headed and doing a decent job.

Same here. There are other parties to vote but we know that the others don't have a chance. It always ends up between labour and conservative. A lot of people stick to one because their families did.huckelberry wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 12:01 amThe ballot for a presidential election in America always has a list of people to choose from, some five or six, I forget exactly.The idea is to find one with the most votes so people collect into a party to try and get enough votes.

So many people being accepting of Trump shows that America is comfortable with Arch-Villians.

Re: Next President ___________ ?
It seems to me more a case of willful ignorance.
When your best defense for why Trump has 91 criminal indictments is that Biden has weaponized the justice department, you've let ignorance rule your world (not to mention you have no problem projecting your own bad behavior on others, because you would love it if Trump weaponized the Justice Department to hold kangaroo courts for your political rivals). You have decided to forego looking at the evidence in favor of Trump walking on water, because orange Jesus.
We know for a fact that if Hillary were in court right now, every Trump lunatic would be cheering the justice system on, evidence be damned.
It's not that I don't trust their intentions, it's that their intentions aren't trustworthy. Ignorance prevents them from being reliable.

I'm old fashioned, so I'll be voting for the person who hasn't ever received an endorsement from the American Nazi Party.
When that's not a viable metric, it's usually a safe bet voting for the person who hasn't bragged about walking in on children getting dressed.
Fortunately this election cycle, I can easily eliminate one candidate who happens to fall into both those categories.

I'll vote for Genocide Joe over Hitler-Lite, but I am deeply disappointed in both candidates this election.
