I don't see Trump getting any nomination. Walker is the golden boy, and he is where the money will be. Since they are all crooked and clearly which party they all are on makes very little difference, I will just sit and shake my head as usual.
Having lived in Wis and still having many friends there I will say Walker is not as "pure" as many like to pretend. I do however feel he's the only electable Rep possibility. And we as a nation could, and have done much worse...many times. Jr.....Wis isn't a blue state in reality as to how most people think. It's got some large blue cities which effectively swings the vote that way. It's also a welfare state, again helping the blue side.... The reason Walker has done what he has is he was able to generate enough "fire" in the states population to get them out to vote. That offset the Democratic strong hold from the big cities. And the economy being less than grand in Wis fired up the "red" taxpayers and they voted in numbers...and for that he gets credit. But timing was everything....Doing that on a large nation wide scale, will take some "fix's" to his policy I feel. He has to lean a bit less right (in other words be rational) on his abortion stance. And he has to get some actual policies on the table regarding the issues that this country is concerned about. Namely the economy, debt, and immigration. Real workable policies that people can get behind.And the SOONER the "word" is out regarding a likely running mate the better. The republicans look like a bunch of idiots at the moment in regards to how they are handling this all...including trump.
Why in the heck does he think it's a good idea to keep attacking Megyn Kelly??
I typed a large long reply to this topic.... I deleted it. I lack confidence that much of anyone wants to hear my opinion LoL
Kyle, Not all illegal aliens are picking crops. We don't need 11, or 14 or 20 million, depending on who you ask. to pick our crops. If you look at the unemployment rate amongst 18-25 year old blacks and Hispanic US citizens and compare it to the nearly 100% employment of the illegal immigrants, you will quickly see that we have huge unemployment in our young people because we are allowing cheap labor to flood the border and take their job opportunities. We can't give welfare and unemployment to millions of people out of work and then give healthcare and other benefits to the illegals that came and took their jobs. Not a sustainable economic policy.
The ALC has resettled a few in our area of the country. Most go to their church rather devoutly, and seem to be pretty normal citizens. Most are Africans....for what ever that's worth. Guess I won't begin to believe all Muslims are AK47 touting nut bags. There have been some that were problematic... they clashed with some Russian's. They pretty much seem to have settled that disagreement a decade or so back, least around here. I noticed today none of our leaders, or candidates had much to say about the sens less BS in VA today... a telling sign.
All the families I am aware of go to the ALC church in the town they live. They do all seem to integrate into society and I guess one way to look at it... they are as normal as everyone else LoL
$10 an hour is a sustainable livable wage in many areas of this country. It's considered a decent paying job in many areas as well. That's all I have to say.
In Seattle, I'd think that if you made $9.50 an hour you would be almost homeless.
