LMAO. I needed a good laugh. Sick of everything going on in the world. I'm jaded, and it's not easy being green!

I don't think having a Republican as the next president is a "given". The long list of candidates they will be fielding are all on a par with Sarah Palin. And it's not unusual for a President and Congress to be of different parties. In the polls, Hillary Clinton beats all of the Republican hopefuls in spite of her e-mail brouhaha, and she has a good chance of being elected thanks to a growing sentiment in regard to a female president being an idea whose time has come. Agreed, that Hillary is not that likeable but a bitch in the white house would rennovate its "good ol boy" decor. She couldn't be any worse than her predecessosrs. Blacks suggesting other Blacks vote Republican because the Dems take the black vote for granted, need to give more thought to such advice. What positive point does switching parties make? Steve Smith needs to stick to trash talkin' about sports and quit jockin' Republicans. The Republican party is a catch-all for rich, right wing, war-mongering, mysogynistic racists with whom Blacks have very little in common, unless you're a deluded misguided brainless surgeon like Dr. Ben Carson. If Blacks split their vote between the 2 parties, this splinters their voting bloc and neutralizes its power. As usual, the lesser of 2 evils rationale surfaces when black voters have to make a decision between the Dems and Republicans. But, all things considered, no party ever delivers on all of its campaign promises so you might as well side with the party you're on the same page with. Of course you can always choose to waste your vote on a 3rd party or - sit the election out. Bottom line: does any of this really matter in a world that is suspended in limbo vibrating in a state of flux? The Universe rules.
