Ah, that's who it is! Thank you Knyte. Rubio's first name is Marco, btw. Unless you used Michael on purpose.

Ok *sigh* never said i wouldnt vote. Just said i didnt want to vote. Geez...

Voting now days is more of a chore than anything else. You should still vote but that doesn't mean its going to be fun.

Voting doesn't matter. Your vote is more like a suggestion to the ruling elite.

if you don't like republicans or democrats spend an hour researching 3rd party candidates. there's always a ton of people with all kinds of platforms running for president. i vote 3rd party and i tell everyone i know that i do, and that voting for the lesser of two evils is defeatist and bad for democracy.

having said that, i like bernie sanders best, if only because very few 3rd party candidates have declared this early.

Clintn or Bernie, I know most of my family is going Clinton.


Basically there is no real good choice this election, and there probably wont be for another 8 years. Simple enough (Clinton two terms)

The survey finds Trump with the support of 24% of Republican registered voters. His nearest competitor, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, stands 11 points behind at 13%. Just behind Bush, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson has 9%, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker 8%, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul 6%, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, former tech CEO Carly Fiorina and Ohio Gov. John Kasich all land at 5%, with former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee rounding out the top 10 at 4%.

In my opinion:

Sanders > Trump > Clinton > Bush

*american idiots who start this crap a year before the actual election*

May I ask why? Can't you pick your candidate in private and announce it a month before?

Why not?

It's like asking who you'd want to win the World Cup this time around.

I'd also like to give a special shoutout to Genghis.

Voting doesn't matter. Your vote is more like a suggestion to the ruling elite.

I believe that the voting system is rigged. A better system would include multiple presidents, like a council of 4-5 political ideologies for each president. States and districts are easy to gerrymander, also consider that you can win the general election with 22% of the people wanting you in office.

My solution:

Alternative vote, Google it, It is late for me :)

It's an unsolvable problem - to unrig the vote. As long as the American ruling elite are greedy and exploiting, and America is strong enough to do their will, it will never be unrigged. This is a problem in many countries, more the powerful ones than the less.

That answer is an overreaction to a small problem that will highly lower living standard and most likely replace current elite set with new elite set, if not immediately, then in 5-10 years.

Many of my favorite candidates so far are sadly down the list. I'd easily be convinced to vote for someone like Marco Rubio or Ben Carson. Plus, I think it would be smart for the Republicans to field one of these two because stealing away some minority voters is the one thing the GOP needs the most next election.

On the Democrat side, Sanders is 10X better the Clinton. I actually give credit to Sanders for restoring my faith in the Democrat party. I had lost almost all respect for them over the past few years.

Rubio will be the nomination IMO. No way Trump gets that.

I can't believe people are taking polls seriously at his stage when Deez Nuts is polling at 8-10% in some states.

Trump is a double-edged sword. Part of me likes him just for the fact that he says whatever he's thinking and isn't afraid to spit in the face of political correctness. However, he's a bit too blunt at times and I'm almost terrified about how diplomatic relations would be under him.

The Republicans would definitely be better with someone else in front. Although,if they choose someone else Trump will likely run as an independent, thus stealing away mostly Republican votes, and completely destroy any chances the GOP has of winning the election. So unless Trump has a change of heart it's likely to be an easy win for whichever Democrat is chosen.

Not really, all that needs to happen for Trump to win is the oth GOp candindates to drop out, Carson or Rubio to become his VP, and Hillary Clinton to get much more shit about the emails, pushing some more people to vote for Bernie Sanders and splitting the democrats votes.

as for me, i just like carson, trump, and sanders
