Hillary Clinton .. she will not have anytime to run the country while under all kinds of ongoing investigations. I'd rather go with the no experience guy, than the one sitting in the back seat, while the car steers itself into oblivion.
Exactamundo! I don't wanna sound redundant, but the TWO most dangerous things in the world are Trump with his finger on the button, and Trump saying climate change is a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese...
Plus, the most TERRIFYING thing in the world is the thought that we're close to ELECTING that low life scumbag.
You will note the nature of my questions today excon. You understand quite well why. Thank you for your reply and Happy Thursday! :) I assume this is directed to me because it doesn't say it's to La Marguerite de Monsieur Matisse. :) However who is M if not Marguerite? Another quandry! :(
Stuff happens! Did you hear about the anti-Hillary cabal of FBI agents in the New York FBI office who are responsible for the constant flow of email leaks? You can't make this stuff up.:( SIGH. Happy Friday excon! :)
The human brain and its poor evolutionary fit for modern questions/problem.
Our brains evolved to deal with threats/problems which were dramatic ("The tiger is going to eat me!"), immediate ("The tiger is going to eat me RIGHT NOW!") , personified ("THAT tiger is going to eat me!"), and short-term ("If I can run away from that tiger, it won't eat me!").
None of those descriptions apply to the kinds of subtle gradual abstract long-term problems which imperil mankind in the modern world.
Psychologist Daniel Gilbert wrote an excellent Op-Ed piece for the LA Time describing the issue.
I don't think either presidential candidate is the "tiger" (or, in a sense, they both are).
As Gilbert writes, "Yes, global warming is bad, but it doesn't make us feel nauseated or angry or disgraced, and thus we don't feel compelled to rail against it as we do against other momentous threats to our species, such as flag burning."
The real problems with the US government are systemic, institutional...and boring. It's much easier for people to get worked up the Clinton's allegedley having people "rubbed out" or The Donald's "Grab 'em by the p***y" remark than to think about the systemic institutional boring problems which deserve our attention.
