“It is inappropriate to contradict your boss in public. He did so in absolutist terms that were not totally accurate and were meant to undercut his supervisors. He could have been much more diplomatic and said something like “so far as I know ...” but only when asked a direct question. There was n…”
“Had his party not made this threat this question should not have been asked. He claims to be his party so he should tell all voters where he stands on this issue. He also should say how he feels about doing away with the filabuster in the senate, making DC a state, making Puerto Rico a state, and …”
“Such a plan should never be allowed to be controlled by such a partisan person as Pelosi. While this issue may need to be addressed, I think it should be a process that covers senators, representatives, court justices, and the president. The process needs to be more bipartisan from the very beginn…”
“NMBC took a promised town hall and turned it into a personal inquisition completely off the topic of policy. The inquisitor moderator asked personal questions and follow ups in an attempt to mislead the audience and rattle the president. She was out for “got you” responses. The president obviousl…”
“Obviously most of the people responding to this question with a yes are in favor of a one party system that obviously leads to what the founders hoped to avoid and John Stewart Mill wrote on length concerning—the tyranny of the majority. No party is morally good enough for that. It is the way to …”
“The president should not even be asked this question. He has made no statement regarding not accepting legitimate results.He has been advocating making our election safer by not papering the world with unsolicited ballots. On the other hand even before the election. Biden has signaled that he plan…”
“It is an insult to all women to limit the field to only women rather than choosing the best person for the job. Harris received affirmative action preference which sullies the achievement forever. Geraldine Ferraro earned her seat I think when she ran for VP on a much earlier Democratic ticket. T…”
“This is the reason that all the expensive benefits the Democrats want to add should not be voted for until we have the funds to do so. Doing otherwise is a sure trip to a dying economy. You can only use money you do not have so long. And no one will feel any empathy for people on this nation when…”
“There has been tremendous change in the opportunities for these young men over the last 60 years. Most blacks people are successful in our country. Eighty per cent are middle class or above. And we already know that the lack of fathers in the household is a major problem for many back youngsters.…”
“It makes up an untrue connection and explains much of our history in terms of that assumption. It does not look at all the people who have benefitted from this country and what it has to offer. The negative bias concerns many fewer people than those who have benefited but no such balance is mentio…”
“I cannot support this entire bill. I do not think the federal level needs to provide incentives for local police practices. I do think funding training on de-escalation techniques might be helpful but must that be federally funded? I also think it is not evident that all police departments are ra…”
“Not until we have “the discussion” where facts rather than emotions hold some weight. Tensions are yet too high for a significant and honest analysis of whether or not there is systematic discrimination in police ranks all over the country. The federal level needs to be teathered to objectivity. …”
