Have you ever gone through a divorce with kids 
I had lots of fun educating the ones who arrived that its called football and not soccer. As they looked at me with that puzzled look I said what tournament are you coming to watch. The Womens World Cup duh. So who is putting this on and whats its official title. Its the 2015 FIFA Womens World Cup. So what does FIFA stand for DUH.
One woman said to another of our female officers its the US Cup thats why we are here. She then gave her that look that said Typical ****ing American the world doesn't all revolve around your country and stamped her passport. I don't think she said Welcome to Canada though.

What's it got to do with me? I'm not registered as a Rep or a Dem so I have no vote in any primary. Plus I'm advocating for a wall to keep the septics out from coming up here not the other way round. There were loads of them downtown yesterday, although on positive note it was mostly crumpet.

Trump? I stand by my odds of 1 in 30 million. He should be sued for wasting people's time on a mass scale.

It's a known fact that the candidate who spends the most on the campaign wins the presidential race. It's happened for every election in recent memory.
He has enough money for the trend to continue....

This is true. It's disgusting the amount of money that's spent on elections...not just the General Election either.

Fingers crossed this is a shoe in for Hillary and a years pure comedy from the republican wingnuts, but with the voters down there, it's a scary though. I wonder where Jeb would invade first.
If only we could bar the cultural creep.
I have that. When we have crumpets on a weekend I can't help but tell the kids while they're in the toaster "soon we will be havink crumpet ja?"

In the last 2, Obama campaign spent less than the others. In his first election, he didn't accept corporate donations. He got a much of it through grassroots internet campaign donations mainly from average people. $20 here, $200 there $2000 there... You might remember, the republicans were flabbergasted at the amount of money he was raising...
