al gore won that election.
Mmmm. Yeah.
Holy shit… That was a coup!
You’re not wrong
Once again Roger Stone is involved in undemocratic activities.
That guy has caused so much damage.
But it was stolen due to 5 hard right justices
Don’t forget Reagan. Jimmy Carter, one of our best presidents and true nice guy, the only nuclear scientist, someone who truly wanted life to be better for all Americans, spent the rest of his life helping people ……. Wasn’t “likable”, but Reagan was. Maybe y’all better think about that when you want your candidate to be likable, to schmooze, to tell you what you want to hear, or to be a “Great Communicator”
Do people in the US actually refrain from voting because their candidate is “boring”?
Democracy is when your government holds your (and many others around the world) life, health, and welfare hostage.
So the key to getting a better government is to lower our expectations.
Nope, something that terrifies many lefties far more. Forming coalitions and showing solidarity to actually win victories and a chance to govern. We can even call it the Sanders method.
I blame Dubya for a lot, but the Great Recession was caused by the housing crisis which was based on laws and practices that predated his presidency (partly Clinton’s fault for the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act). He did a shit job of handling it and leading recovery from it, but the event itself wasn’t his fault.
And btw, Obama gave his pick away. He thought he was gonna win.
I just keep reading ai gore…
Al Gote not only could not differentiate himself from GWB, he also had a wife who led a censorship campaign against artists.
Democrats should try changing their strategy since it’s obviously not working.
Love how it is always the voter’s fault, it’s not candidates or parties job to appeal to voters.
Preach. The DNC deserve their share of the blame, and berating voters for not wanting to vote for shit candidates (especially how the DNC sabotaged the likes of Howard Dean and Bernie Sanders).
Dubya was the result of GOP fuckery, but Trump was a self-inflicted wound.
Hey you stupid shit the radical right has FULL CONTROL OF ALL MAINSTREAM MEDIA. That:s because liberals gave it to them. How bout blame them for creating a nation of Nazis?
I think the Great Recession was bound to happen regardless of who was in office, but everything else is correct.
Wasnt uh… Werent’ the rules rolled back under Clinton? Glass–Steagall . Yeah that was it. Glass–Steagall, which basically separated commercial and investment banking.
Depends. Someone could have seen the writing on the wall and said hey we gotta do something before this goes nuts. Gore strikes me that he would have listened.
Somehow, despite having a majority for only several months out of the last several decades, that is all the Dems’ fault for not trying hard enough or whatever.
Therefore I (definitely not an accelerationist cosplaying as caring about leftism) could not possibly support anyone other than candidates certain to lose the election.
Change the Senate to population proportional seats and eliminate the electrical college. This country would change in a big way in a few years or less. Easier said than done though.
Those one-liners don’t come close to describing the reason voters rejected those candidates.
Hillary Clinton and Debbie Wasserman Schultz backstabbing Bernie Sanders had to be a huge part of why people hated her.
