Bottom post of the previous page:

Generally, this sidestepping happens through disenfranchisement of the voting population ("It doesn't matter what I vote, they'll do the worst shit anyway" -And then doesn't vote), ignorance of policians (Businesses lobbying telling them about how their science department found that drilling for oil is not harmful to the environment and smoking is healthy, gib subsidy plx. While the regular people only rarely talk to their politician), or flat out fraud making it so the votes don't matter (Gerrymandering, crooked or poorly secured election machines, a few people counting mail-in votes making up some more votes for their prefered candidates, etc), or even something as simple as the media blacklisting a potential candidate to stop their message from getting out, or a politician being blackmailed with photos of him doing something really bad.

There are a lot of ways for democracy to go very wrong, but at the very least politicians tend to be more accountable than the king who ruled by 'divine right' in medieval times

Sure, and most of those issues are legitimate in at least a few cases. Some of them are extremely widespread. But I think they can be solved with reform; I don't think we're at an impasse that requires burning everything down and starting over.

You're an idiot if you think democracy has failed and we need a new system. Hell the voting system works pretty damn well, it's just in the US the canddates aren't very good this year-- no offense Trump.

I'M DISSATISFIED SO THE ENTIRE SYSTEM SHOULD CHANGE TO SUIT ME

They burnt our women, raped our crops and trampled our churches!

What did he mean by this?

that now the gloves are off

That even with everyone treating him with the kid gloves in every debate he still thinks he's somehow at a disadvantage. He's a narcissistic tool.

Spotted the hillshill.

The two people hosting the second debate were super on Shillary's side, he was right in saying at one point it was 3V1

>not voting vermin supreme

when I get my free pony I'll be laughing at all of you

> thinking trump is a dumbass means you are a Hillary shill

They are both equally awful and being so incredibly defensive makes your camp seem like a bunch of retards. Also i think the grab em by the pussy debacle is going to hurt him with swing voters more than you are willing to admit

Well hey
That shit works

Over here the current prime minister litterally said he'd give everyone in the country 1000 euro if he was elected.
Idiots fell for it, they never got their 1000 bux

Also, amusement.

Another top notch, totally unbiased report on Hillary bashing from the BBC


Edit: Also... clowns
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-37604715

Anyone live in Tucson, Arizona?
You need to go to the clown rally this Saturday and grab some pictures.
Bonus points if you do so dressed either as the mime or wearing a red jumpsuit.

; HELP CLOWN COVERED IN BLOOD IN SOUTH SCI MAINT KILLING ME

Two chicks came out of nowhere claiming Trump fondled them roughly a century ago and only just now came forward at such a convenient time because of "moral obligations".

Rape never happens because I say so
Powerful men never keep their victims quiet ever
I like blaming victims while excusing the actions of abusers

If they had some evidence I'd change my tune but the timing seems to be just a hair convenient.

Amusingly, there was a post on /pol/ about the DNC (One guy claiming to work there) going to make up fake rapes to try to stop Trump

About a week ago.
Guess that may have been legit

>trump
>stop
You mean "further increase his reverse speed", don't you.

make skyrim great again

why couldn't you kill Ulfric and replace him with the princess of solitude, or the cool bear guy?

Skyrim is a province of the Empire of Tamriel.
It's already as great as it can be.

because new vegas was written by obsidian and skyrim was written by bethesda

It's treason then

YOU THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE TRUMP OR HILLARY BUT IT WAS REALLY ME-- JEB!!

WRYYYYYYY

So what happens if a third party candidate gets enough votes to make it impossible for all sides to get above 270?

If there's nobody with 270 votes, they run the vote again with the top two from the tie I think.

The powers that be will never let that happen.

So its just delaying the inevitable

>Trump has bad foreign policy

You have to be absolutely fucked to think that. Hillary wants to push against Russia. Trump wants to stay the hell out of it. He also wants to enforce immigration laws, vet those coming into the country, rework/get rid of NAFTA/TPP/all the trade deals other countries get. Yet he breaks off from the right on healthcare and wants to make it so people who can't afford it can still get it. Trump is the very definition of a human candidate. He has his flaws but he knows what the common man wants.

It's also funny how people scream "WELL HE TALKED DIRTY ABOUT WOMEN!" and they all turn out to be tumblr tier people. Even when you point out the Shelton case and Bill's and Hill's harassment of Bill's victims, the massive list of people they've offed, and a ton of other shit, they say "WELL TRUMP IS IMMORAL I'M VOTING MORALLY!". What's moral about voting for Hillary with what I said before? Trump is the far better choice.

People give /pol/ a lot of crap and rightfully so, it's full of cancer. However, some people on there are seriously dedicated and have pieced together a ton of information on Clinton's activities.

fuck trump, fuck hillary

Ken Bone for pres 2016

Ken Bone wants to raise taxes to fund his crazy energy plan. I'm voting for Jake the Plumber. He's going to fix the government's leaky mess.

We got a coalition here in the old world that obliterated the third party and ensured the bigger one's place. Has Murica ever had a "oalition before? Because if not, I imagine you'd probably go straight to a second vote, maybe not stopping voting for third parties because demooocracy. Now I'm sounding like that anti-AV video. Maybe you'd just have to suck it up without a majority. This is where FPTP falls down if the entire point is to get a majority gummerment.

Reminder that the nazi's didn't actually win an election but got in as a minor party to the german conservative party.


Good thing lib dems were a bunch of push overs.

Hitler was an anti-smoking vegetarian.

Hitler was a secret dog supremacist who sought to replace mankind with dogs.

Where were you the day Pillz went insane

On Basil with my ilggas.

Okay you know what can I sign up as a nazi and get a cute revealing uniform so I can purge all the lizards in style

Purge them of their reproductive fluids, probably.
We all know they're alien-fucking degenerates.

Even as a nazi, aran still craves attention

pet me and give me recognition

Why is Shadowdimentio making things up about the electoral college? Why are people speculating based on him confusing the /tg/ runoffs with real life?

The House (currently republican) gets to settle a tied election.

Clearly this is a sinister conspiracy on my part

Don't flatter yourself, I'm not mistaking your ignorance for malice.
