and genuine thanks for the sympathy, cosy.
I was poorly, but it was as a result of a bereavement.
I am not RIP yet.
and I have a much gentler temperament than Victor Meldrew has – or had, as he is now RIP.
I keep reiterating – Quasimodo is my soulmate.
Don’t know him but his face rings a bell
Reason….er, yes.
Drac, try xenophobia, which is a more wide-ranging term than racism. Racism is linked, and the two can be confused, but Trump is guilty on both counts. It’s an inward, insular approach to life, becoming more common.
In the US, it’s up to individual states to make the rules for qualification as a presidential candidate, and these rules differ widely. It’s a federal system.
Funnily enough, only 500-odd American actually vote for president. Clinto and Trmp will not be appearing on ballots. No Presidential candidate ever does. You vote for electors, not for a president. The electors then go on in Decemeber to vote for the President directly. It’s a funny system, written in 1787, to ensure that demoracy didn’t interfere with the process.
Some electors are rogues and vote for a candidate of their own choice. Once, one elector decided to vote for Walter Jones, the local postman, because Mr Jones was a good postman who braved all weathers. So, Walter Jones got 1 vote in the elction, as opposed to 500-odd for the other two candidates.
I wasn’t wanting my thoughts validating off anyone, least of all by you with a smartarse “er, yes”, it’s just I put it plain and simple and not with all the bullshit of two wannabe politicians like you and Draculina …….. waffle waffle waffle.
I wouldn’t of put it quite so bluntly but am inclined to agree with Reason …. No offence Drac but not all comment needs analyising & some of us make tongue in cheek comments.
Mind yer manners Reason …… (gives that look ) !

2 into 250 million goes….?Me neither Mr Kart … It will be what it is & us mere British citizens have no say in the matter.
Jury is out on that one …. Would in the past say the boards .
Good lighthearted banter the odd serious debate with good points raised & opinion defended.
Now the boards seem to be a platform for people to personally attack others.
Sad really but that’s chat I guess.There used to be an unwritten rule … what happens in the rooms stays there & not brought on to the boards. Again that’s gone by the by .
C’est la vie x
Depends whether you want to be insulted instantly or sit and wait in anticipation.
Shaddup you moron lol
Out of the 2 would rather have Hils to be honest ….. Trump is dangerous & how the hell can you take a bloke that wears such a bad hair piece seriously !!!
Shame Obama cant stay …. best president for many a year IMHO.
Interesting times ahead.
