      I'm not even certain that's English.

      As for who I'll vote for, I'll look at the options when the field solidifies, but it may well be that Donald Trump will again be the least bad choice and the only Republican with a real chance of winning (assuming anybody runs in the primary against him).

          Oh I'm pretty sure that is a foregone conclusion, MM.

            We'll see. It's far too early to make any predictions.

              The rogue06-Sparko presidency will mean limitless bacon for everyone in that we'll devote our resources into using roguetech technology to clone it.

                A Carpe emperorship will mean nothing for anyone because I don't need your stinking votes. I'm an emporer! That means limitless power - and absolute cool...

                      The last green candidate was an anti-vax half-wit. I have to add that to my list of non-negotiable issues.

                        I think I voted for the Mormon last time--McMullen? Hillary's win of Illinois electoral votes was guaranteed no matter what I or anyone else did.

                            Let's vote for the one who dated a 60 year old married man who rewarded her... services... with a government position...
                            That's what
                            - She

                            Without a clear-cut definition of sin, morality becomes a mere argument over the best way to train animals
                            - Manya the Holy Szin (The Quintara Marathon)

                            I may not be as old as dirt, but me and dirt are starting to have an awful lot in common
                            - Stephen R. Donaldson

                              I didn't know the Green party even knew what a Vax is! (or was).
