George H. W. Bush voting for Clinton

[EvoUK]

Actually, I'm considered generally slightly right of centre in the UK, and we'd consider Hillary right wing too. She's only left wing by the standards of a right wing country.

So in this instance, though I don't doubt starlight is very left wing, he's not far off a 'outside the US' view of Hillary.

Because as a rule the American people are politically uninformed ...

Which is the only reason Hillary is slightly ahead. But, it appears the "American people" are waking up, cause she's slipping in the polls pretty badly.

(don't be surprised if certain liberals take this seriously)

What does 'ebol' mean?

I think Starlight, that you may be letting your own very left wing position affect how you label Hillary Clinton if you think of her as right wing.

She's "rightwing" (if there really is a such a word when it comes to US foreign policy) in her war hawkishness and bloodlust. And this is probably one of the very easiest things to demonstrate about her, hence the reason war hawk neocons are behind her.

Because as a rule the American people are politically uninformed and so, if they vote at all, they tend to vote their party or on personality, rather than on issues.

... the irony.

It's saying "evil" in such a way that it should be known that you're not really implying somebody is 'evil' in the biblical sense.

I guess.

Compared to majority European (and some other) political sensibilities, Hillary is very much so right-wing with respect to economic and especially military issues. Compared with most Christian posters here, Hillary is very much so left-wing, socialist, evil-incarnate, etc.

Huh?

Huh?

It's a joke.

[robrecht]

It's a joke.

But what does 'ebol' mean? Must be totally over my head.

I'm not exactly sure where the "socialist" accusation comes from relative to the socialist system US functions under now and has been for decades. But I've never understood that argument either from the conservative or liberal point of view. They both argue as if US has nothing currently to do with socialism, so that one has always baffled me. But evil-incarnate in relation to corruption, lying and deception... ya, pretty much.

Are you suggesting informed people would vote for Trump instead? A serial bunkruptee, fraudster, con-artist, liar, divorcee, play-boy, war-dodger, who never pays his debts, steals from charity, doesn't know anything about the issues, and talks like an 8 year old?

Look, I hate Hillary and think of all the qualified people for the job I've ever seen she's among the worst, but Trump simply isn't qualified and it would be like electing a monkey to be president.

Not at all. I am not a Trump supporter.

I think Trump is slightly less bad than Hillary, especially, as I have stated repeatedly, when it comes to the possible SCOTUS and other justice nominees either might submit.

Come on, Purple Pants, be honest, this means you really are a Trump supporter.

I wish to God there were another alternative. I will hold my nose and vote for him as a protest vote against Hillary.
