The main reason is that Mrs. Clinton would be responsible in overseeing the country's nuclear arsenal. I have serious doubts about Trump's mental stability.

 

Talk about an unreasonable fear. Do you think he has a button he can just push? Do you have any idea the proccess it takes to launch a nuke? The pres just can't fire one off for fun. That's absurd.

What percentage of each convention would you say that you watched? There's still one night to go, but I've watched most of both conventions. The RNC was much more "anti-Hillary" than the DNC was been "anti-Trump." Tonight could change that, however.

 

I have watched probably equal amounts of both. In my opinion, the DNC has been as much anti-Trump as the RNC was anti-Clinton. I have yet to see anything that proves it one way or another, so at this point its just a matter of opinion/perception.

How have we handled immigrants during periods of conflict, when those immigrants come from the region we are at conflict with, in the past?

 

Not in ways that I am proud of, i.e., Japanese American internment camps in WWII.

You said it better than I could. Diversity is what has made this and what continues to make this the greatest nation on earth.

 

Contrary to what I feel - and maybe it's just me - from the other side of the political aisle.

 

I love diversity. You don't have to look any further than my life choices. I just prefer diversity to be non-violent and not sworn to kill me!

You are probably correct. Unless someone is watching with some kind of click counter, it comes down to "we see and hear what we want to see and hear".

I agree that it is opinion, which is why I've asked. I'm sure that somewhere, someone in the media is going back through all footage and counting, but beyond that it will just be perspective.

 

As someone who is likely voting for a third party candidate, the DNC has inspired me leaps and bounds beyond the RNC. That, of course, is my perspective.

Agreed. I similarly prefer not beginning with the notion that all diversity is violent and sworn to kill me.

So, you don't watch but still draw that conclusion? Interesting slant.

I noticed that, too.

Agreed. I similarly prefer not beginning with the notion that all diversity is violent and sworn to kill me.

 

I don't either but their are those that do, that have, and said they will. Why do we keep ignoring the fact that they are killing people all around the world? Why not here so much, Big ocean? So why bring it home? Why? Unless we can be sure it's safe to do, which we can't, no, no, no, no, no a thousand times. America can be violent enough. No importing terror. No reason to rush to anything. Let's slow down before we rush and miss something that can cost hundreds of lives. One question, are there not muslim countries that would be more compatible with their lifestyle and religion clser to their home who can take them and are not at war? Any?

First, there are many other countries that are also doing their part and taking in refugees.

 

Secondly, and most importantly, because these people are escaping terrorism and good, moral people should help those in need. Some mention that Christians are constantly persecuted in this country. As a Christian, we have to do more than just use the term. We have to "do what Jesus would do" and to me, I have no doubt that Jesus would want us to help these people.

Absurd? Unreasonable? Hardly. Yes, a president can't just fire one off for fun ... but firing off a salvo in a hate-filled rage is not outside the realm of possibilities, especially when said president is irrational and immature.

 

A related fear, of course, is that another unstable national leader (Kim Jung-un) will act first if Trump gets elected and goes into his bully-boy schtick.

 

(As an aside have you ever witnessed a launch procedure inside a Minuteman ICBM control center?)

99% of all Muslims are peaceful people. I have a really hard time with the idea that we should just give them a giant middle finger because of the 1%.

Dems stole the R's usual messaging.

 

 

 

Democrats have stolen the GOP's best rhetoric — and Republicans have noticed - Vox

This is true, but there are 1.6 billion muslims, half like sharia law, the 1% of radicals equals 16 million who want to kill you...that is quite a substantial number. How big is our armed forces?

Irrational chain of thought that doesn't deserve any further response.
