I'm a Bernie Sanders Voter: Here's Why I'll Vote Trump

Contributed by: dayanmao

The author does a good job on factually illustrating exactly why Trump would be better than Hillary. I agree. However, towards the end when he explains why he won't vote for Stein he gets into Nader blaming. A few paragraphs (or sentences) were enough for me. Too bad. The article has some good ammo to use against Hillbots.

But this does bring up another point. If Sanders had tens of millions of supporters in the primaries, where did his supporters go? Obviously the majority went to Stein (or quit altogether in disgust) while the remaining minority would have been split somewhere among Johnson and Clinton. At most, no more than 10% of Bernie's supporters would now be supporting Hillary. She was and is, 100% at odds with Everything he proposed.

Why haven't the poll numbers moved for Stein? One way, is to rig the actual polls - which we've seen (one poll only included people 35 and over), the other is just to report whatever the hell you want. I find this just as likely.

So, if Stein's real poll numbers are 10% or higher (which I don't think is a stretch), and it's being reported everywhere as 2 to 3% (oddly what they were before Sanders sold out) - what makes anyone think votes for her will be counted/reported honestly?

I fully understand the Stein movement (whom I voted for in the past) is one looking towards the future. However, if she were to actually get 15 million votes do you think that would be reported, or is it more likely the numbers will be changed just like the polling numbers to ensure the 1%'s, Two Party stranglehold?

My opinion only, is no matter what she receives it won't be reported. So, is a vote for Trump really out of the question? I know some who'll vote for Trump because clearly Hillary is the far more accomplished evil. Frankly, I'm tempted, but I'll still vote my conscience.

The Clintons will break all rules and laws to seize White House power. This is a mply proven by the manner in which they rigged and stole the first presidential debate.

The operation appears to have been planned in advance of the September 26, 2016 event, involving the Clintons and their operatives, the debate organizers, the broadcast media (NBC and "moderator"� Lester Holt), the managers of the venue, and the security detail at the facility.

The rig was carried out with near-military precision.

(7 Reasons I Won't Vote For Hillary Clinton)

To my many friends and readers who plan to vote for Hillary Clinton: please stop bullying me.

Also please lay off other people, progressives and liberals and traditional Democrats and socialists and communists, citizens who identify with the political left, who plan to vote for Dr. Jill Stein or stay home.

I'm not going to vote for Donald Trump. I agree with the mainstream liberal consensus that he should never hold political power, much less control over nuclear launch codes. He is dangerous and scary. But that doesn't mean I have to vote for Hillary Clinton.

So I won't.......(continued in the article)

Many of you have been waiting for this, some even asked me to do it.

So, this is the moment. I hacked the Clinton Foundation server and downloaded hundreds of thousands of docs and donors' databases.

Hillary Clinton and her staff don't even bother about the information security. It was just a matter of time to gain access to the Clinton Foundation server.

Propaganda is ramping up hard to drive support for a 'no-fly zone' in Syria - something that will translate into a full out ground war and could bring us into open war with Russia. Do NOT be manipulated again!

Exotic "Twilight Zone" Reef Is Brimming With Unique Forms of Life

We tend to think of coral reefs as luminous, undersea jungles that pepper the shallow, scuba-friendly tropics. But deeper down, in a region about as bright as Pluto on a sunny day, there lie vast reef ecosystems unknown to science. Richard Pyle, a zoologist at the Bishop Museum, has spent the last twenty years surveying one of these landscapes—the so-called “twilight zone” coral beds that encircle the Hawaiian archipelago at depths of 30 to 150 meters (100 to 500 feet), where light is perpetually dim. His extensive findings are summarized today in the journal Peer J, in the most comprehensive study of low-light coral reefs ever conducted. And they reveal a world far stranger and more complex than we imagined.


"Official 'Outraged' About Charges After KC Library Arrests"

Contributed by: smkngman3

Although the arrests occurred in May following a speech by author and diplomat Dennis Ross, the library system only recently went public about its opposition to charges, the Kansas City Star reported (http://j.mp/2dF1IqE).

R. Crosby Kemper III, executive director of the city's library system, said "we're going to be living in a different kind of country" if people can be arrested for asking questions at a library. "If this kind of behavior is unacceptable to the police, then I guess we're going to have to shut the library down."

Issues arose after Ross finished speaking and took a question from Jeremy Rothe-Kushel concerning whether Jewish Americans like Rothe-Kushel should be concerned about actions by the U.S. and Israel that amount to "state-sponsored terrorism."
