How is that possible? She has no government or political background whatsoever. She has never been anything more than a failed lawyer and the wife of a failed president. What is this, osmosis?
President Biden happens.
I’ll bet the democrats are polling alt candidates right at this moment.
Biden/Warren
Right. She is almost into the palace.
What real experience did her husband have in 2007? Or Jesse Ventura and Arnold Schwartzenegger when they ran for governor?
Why is early voting allowed?
Do juries get to vote before the two parties rest? NO they do not. And why not? Because hearing all the evidence is crucial to a proper decision.
Is the ideal of a thoughtful electorate a myth? Of course it is. But so is all ceremonial deference to any sovereign. It reinforces the legitimacy of the state to show respect to its foundations, which in this case is the American electorate.
Allowing people to vote BEFORE the candidates are finished having their say is to say, "We recognize that there are lots of people who minds are made up before they hear from the enemy". This reinforces the idea of a divided society, one where no one has to listen to disagreement, where NOTHING the other side does or says has meaning.
While there are cases, perhaps many cases, where this is true, to treat the electorate AS A WHOLE this way is profoundly disrespectful.
Why not just have everybody vote electronically right after the conventions?
And what does it tell you that Hillary Clinton has promised to REQUIRE every state to allow early voting?
assuming it is pneumonia. I really don’t believe a word these people say. Lying is what they do. I have been a RN for a decade and I have seen my share of pneumonia. It seems like some folks recover quicker and easier than others. I think it depends on the causative pathogen, the immune system of the host, and when antibiotics are started.
fortunately, all presidential choices pick your party choice slate of electors to electoral college.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
That manner of choosing electors was initiated by Obama to circumvent a protest Electoral College vote based on Obama’s not being a natural born American, and therefore unqualified for the presidency. Obama insisted that his campaign slelect all electoral college electors.Prior to that, the state organization selected the electors, a much more democratic safeguard to any attempted usurpation of the office of President. Obama successfully did usurp the presidency.
Hopefully electors will again be chosen by the state party organizations of the victorious candidate.Its actually a State right to do so.
If Clinton is out, many democrat voters come back to their party.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It would be a feeding frenzy between Pelosi, Schumer,Biden
, a dark horse Muslim Candidate ,and Pocahontas herself.
[I think, wrong because with the Clinton Machine fully eliminated from the national political scene he will, couched in the effort to save the democrat party, bring forth another candidate, one that has been artificially redesigned , remodeled and attractive to the eye...his wife Michelle, his puppet and his third or, within the scope of possibilities, his fourth term. IMO and ducking.

Now we learn that there is no process in place to determine who the nominee is if the chosen one is out of the race before the election. Logic says there should be an established process and it should be the VP choice or whoever came in second at the convention. If the Dems come up with something to replace hillary and the Judas Republicans approved of it, a lot of anger could boil over.
Early voting is a bad idea, as so many events can happen after those early votes are cast. What would happen to early hillary votes if they pulled a switch? Could the dems afford losing all those votes? A do-over would push a lot of folks past the boiling point, I suspect.
Logic is that DC needs a reset, including a better set of rules for choosing President. Four years of a Trump presidency is the best way to clean out the DC sewer (both political parties) and get the US back on track.
I'd really appreciate input from anyone who has knowledge and/or thoughts about these questions.
That, to me, is the big thing. I'm not 100% sure how it works, but I know Clinton has spent a lot of time "fund raising". I think that is HER war-chest. I don't think the DNC controls it.
If Biden or Warren becomes the new nominee, how much money do they have $1.50??
I'd consider that to be a big problem with less than 2 months to go.
I can understand the frustration. It seems to be whoever can get away with whatever. But I believe there is a process in the Constitution that ends up relying on the House of Representatives should there be no clear Electoral College decision that is decisive.
Isn’t it the same thing as when a candidate drops out or loses? Pay the campaign bills, close the books and the rest is theirs? I think a lot of people run with no chance of winning just to see how much they can make in donations.
As you say, electors are chosen by state organizations. Hasn’t this already been done by now since ballot are finalized, being printed and mailed?
“The potential Electors’ names may or may not appear on the ballot below the name of the Presidential candidates, depending on election procedures and ballot formats in each state. “

Clinton is not dropping out. She has sold her soul to Satan so that she can occupy the White House as head honcho. And this is her last opportunity to get to the White House.
Still, it will be a high hurdle.

Don’t know where you live, but in Iowa. a *candidate* must name a list of potential electors in order to appear on the ballot. Those electors are actually chosen by the state party committees, as candidates would be hard-pressed to know trustworthy supporters at such a local level.
I’ve never heard of a dispute between a state party and a presidential candidate.
Many who will vote for trump because they hate hillary may leave trump for the replacement
