Wait what? This was already in the off-topic section of the US forum. Makes no sense to move it here, since it pertains to a US election.
But what do I know?

Not sure why the US residents can't have their own thread about the US election :confused:
Exactly -- please put it back where it came from! Sticking it in TIO is just an open invitation for the quality of the debate to go completely downhill. |

Hey, who moved us to TIO. The quality of argument is going to go right down now!
(Insert Monty Python sketch). No one is going to change anyone's mind on this thread, so hurling insults seems pointless. You may think I'm crazy for preferring Hilary over Trump, but the results in November will speak for themselves. The great value of this thread is the reference material provided (eg, Nate Silver's recent site - very useful and informative), and the historical context that the likes of Leslie and others bring. Many on this thread have been in the US for decades, and some are political junkies, so full of info. I want to say a big thanks to those who do provide such informative posts. |

Yikes. I blame The Mad Pooper for jumping in and turning it into an insult-fest. Yes, he gets insulted back, so now it's a vicious circle, but - anyway ... it is what it is.
We did have Boiler and Flavius engaging us from the Libertarian/right wing angle in a much less shitposty way, though.

I certainly won't think you're crazy for preferring Hillary to The Donald. I'm not a rabid Clinton supporter, but I don't have any strong feelings against her, either. |
