yes he's in a red state but in a university town (notre dame) and on the northern edge of the state. he's closer to chicago and detroit than to the southern border with kentucky. real split there between south and midwest. but anyway not saying it won't be an issue, just not enough i think to make him unelectable. i mean we already had racists and bigots who liked to use obama's middle name as a wink to imply "kenyan muslim". but he won election and reelection anyway, being black and having the middle name hussein. so being gay and buttigieg is not a real obstacle i think. gay people in this country are almost completely mainstream these days. not just in the media but also in politics. krysten sinema, who is divorced and identifies as bisexual, won a senate seat in deep-red arizona just recently. and that's a statewide election, not a demographic pocket. so, yeah. i don't think it's a huge issue. and sure there will always be lunatics and imbeciles, but that can't be helped. so, while gay is now normal, contemporary gender panics are centered around transgender people instead. just check out tesla's posts for reference. |

Herman's stock picks..........best avoid
2014 recco's by the Cain (just a FEW of MANY): Virtus Oil & Gas (VOIL) “could yield stratospheric gains for shareholders who move in immediately. Virtus Oil & Gas VOIL suddenly finds itself conservatively valued in excess of $70.71 a share*... And you can buy VOIL right now for around $1.50!” Current stock price: $0.025. American Heritage International (AHII) “could easily double or triple in the next 18-24 months. Currently trading for about $1-2, the stock could easily double or triple in the next 18-24 months” Current stock price: $0.00. Ener-Core (ENCR) could be “the NEXT 884% Industrial Cleantech monster winner. I discovered this company from one of the only investment banks that covers smaller industrial clean technology companies.” Current stock price: $0.10. Centor Energy (CNTO) could “climb to $25 and from there onwards to $100. Centor Energy (CNTO) just went public. Shares are now around $1, and as my just-released Special Report reveals, early investors are looking at a 1,200% winner. ” Current stock price: $0.0011. that's called the "MINUS 99.99%" plan |

Has Yang ever played up the fact that he could be our first Asian-American president?
![]() Like that's a monumental thing. Just like Buttburger being the first openly gay president. Not like it really matters as much as platforms they're proposing. Speaking of which, I think I have an episode of JRE to watch. |

anyway, speaking of andrew yang, the other day a friend tried to get me to watch a 2h video with the guy and i do not have time, plus that format bores me
but i checked his website, and unlike beto or buttigieg’s face displays and charisma appeals, his website is full of ideas and proposals also he does not stand on tables very refreshing anyway, love that his economic argument is not one of resentment and stupidity but shows an understanding and valid points one can debate and accept or reject on a rational basis e.g.: https://www.yang2020.com/policies/human-capitalism/ of course everyone more or less focuses on voting themselves some free money, and that’s the bait i guess (that was my friend’s big selling point for this guy, lmao), but look past your own personal greed for free shit and some of what he says makes sense. i don’t think singapore applies here, it is only an example of many variants after all, but the proposed economic measurements are way more intriguing — eta: also i agree that the purpose of the market is to serve the public. which is what it’s always been great at. and it’s still the best mechanism for that. much more so than central planners. and tweaking the incentives as he proposes seems a better approach than bernie/warren’s “cops cops cops” ideas. ... the value added tax otoh i don’t know.... expensive shit |

Symbols, you often talk about a candidate's ideas and proposals. And I get it. I really do.
But, what ideas and proposals did Trump run on? There was the wall, and a couple of other vague things. Clinton had ideas and proposals up the ying-yang, and what good did it do her?

he sold it like diplomas to trump university, as baseball hats it was pure marketing bullshit that capitalized on the feelings of frustration and disenfranchisement of the uneducated white working class, plus a deal with the evangelicals for supreme court judges, plus tax bones thrown to tea partiers. he’s actually delivered in his shoddy way on those promises: tariffs, personal interventions in the economy, christian white males in the court, and tax cuts for the rich. awful, but he’s done it. he keeps screaming for the wall which his base loves. hillary could not sell cold water to a person stranded in a desert. i consider myself, perhaps arrogantly, an educated and well read person, capable of listening to a complex argument, but she’d put me to sleep with her lawyer style talk. every “idea” (so many of them, such a lack of a central theme and core message) explained in the most convoluted fashion possible. yes she proposed good policies, but as a candidate she was utter shit. we all know this. i just watched chapelle’s “equanimity” this morning and he put how it felt to vote for hillary in the funniest of ways. watch it if you get a chance. fyi warren is doing the same thing as hilary. great at policy, AWFUL on message. she was my favorite for years then she takes a microphone and oh the sorrow. i have not listened to yang speak or how he explains shit (maybe i should after i finish this project that has me swamped) so i dont know how well he can sell his proposals but “human capitalism” sounds (like bush’s “compassionate conservatism”) muuuuch better that hillary’s “stronger together” or bolshevik bernie’s “socialism!” (which means statism, which means a sluggish economy, which means distributing poverty.) so... what is the question behind these questions? i thought you were driving at something |

Did she actually quit, or was she fired? (This is important!)
I expect the insulting tweets to follow soon.

The Trump Era will be over, one day. Maybe 2021. Maybe 2025, good fucking gawd.
But, it will end. One day.
