@@Pl-ax0the issue with this argument is that it’s only brought up by disregulated Americans to fight the left. When have you heard a Democrat say they’ll use their 2nd amendment, aka take guns and bring violence, to fight against a ruling republican tyranny? You want to use the 2nd amendment, fair enough, but everyone gets to. But keep in mind the destructive tyranny doesn’t come from the left.

What about using the legal system to try to stop people from running for office or trying to put your political opponent in prison before the election? isnt htat kind of anti democratic?

garland is weak a it shows every time 😂 shows his face

No, Garland is not at fault. He tried to maintain a justice system blind to the political voices crying for venegeance. We the people are to blame, as we have stopped trying to form a more perfect Union to serve all, but instead have worked to make things perfect for some or just the one.

​@@jojocaswell1633You are absolutely correct. It is NOT Merrick Garland's fault. It is Joe Biden's fault. Nominating Garland was nothing more than symbolic. Garland was not qualified, nor motivated to perform the duties of AG. Further, when it became apparent that Garland wasn't "up for the job", Biden did nothing. He should have inquired about the investigations, and if not satisfied, requested Garland's resignation. Or, Biden was stupid enough to believe that Trump on trial during the campaign was good for himself. Not learning from the 2016 election, that Trump on the news all day every day, is not good.

@jojocaswell1633 Nah I'm sorry, bit he's the Attorney General of the United States should have the independence to investigate crimes that quite frankly we were all HEARING & SEEING for months after the election=/ Only reason why he appointed Jack Smith was because of the Jan 6th. investigation conducted by congress, didn't that seem political for him to use those facts to get off his a$$ and do his job! Also I might state that by the time he appointed the special counsel EVERYONE was saying that we would be in the predicament the country finds itself in now!

Demo means village in Greek and does only function for that size.

Yeah seriously. Try being a Democrat in the South or a Republican in California. Your vote effectively doesn't matter. It's basically a disenfranchised vote. A symbolic vote for a symbolic democracy. We are closer to a Republic than a Democracy.

No, Joe will not stop the genocide because he depends on corporate donors for his campaign financing, and billionaire investors make huge profits from foreign weapons sales. As I see it, this would be happening regardless of who occupied the White House, because they would face the same pressure from their corporate donors that Biden faces. However, Biden's still preferable if you're a Senior Citizen like me, because Dems will try to protect what's left of Social Security, Medicare, and other domestic programs. This also depends, of course, on whether Dems win sufficiently in down-ballot races and retain some leverage in Congress. We really only have two choices. A victory by Trump and the GOP will completely privatize (or otherwise destroy) the public sector. By contrast, Dems will not pledge allegiance to the Heritage Foundation's "Project 2025" (aka "Mandate for Leadership") because as bad as they are, they're not the total pawns of Wall Street and Corporate America. By contrast, under another Trump presidency, Project 2025 will ruin most of the administrative state, including the EPA, SEC, USPS, public infrastructure, and what's left of environmental regulations. A Trump victory would also be likely to galvanize neofascist groups, pseudo-Christian fanatics and vigilante gangs, with a consequent increase in gun-and-street violence. I'm no fan of Biden -- I mostly despise the man -- but a criminal like Trump will wreck the country if given a second chance. Many would say it's wrecked already, but it could get much worse. The hard reality is that there ARE no really good choices in the electoral arena (except among third parties & independents, most of whose candidacies will get blocked, ignored, outmaneuvered or totally outspent). My personal hope lies not in the electoral arena, but in organized labor, especially the UAW and its outreach efforts.

The last four Democrat presidents could have packed the court. They're conservatives.

💯

it looks like he never got the memo that all citizens already have the right to vote no matter your gender sex or ethnicity. This been the case for many years, he doesnt understnad that the electoral colleget protects our system from having a single state commit ballot fruad and rig the election. Today the fruad needs to be very spread out and cant come from a single county. Joe biden couldnt even win a primary in the general they had to commit fraud on such a massive scale it was very easy to find massive amounts of evidence. this is why the electoral college is so important. if there isnt any fraud the popular vote and electoral college should be won by the same peopel.

Thank you they talk about Republicans as if they are any better.

The pope will not save you

😂. “Great interview”? This lady has been a socialist cheerleader her whole life, and she’s super hypocritical. It’s ok for Biden to commit crimes and be corrupt, but not ok for Trump to do his job just because you don’t like him? 😂

the electoral college prevents a single corrupt state or county in a state to win the election by dumping a bunch of fraudulent ballots into the system. To win an election with fruad today, it needs to be a very large operation like we saw in 2020. Today liberal states have to wait till the election is over then find all the peopel that did not vote and fill our ballots on their behalf, That takes weeks and involves alot of people and even though demcrats have used the term "voting rights" to describe changes to our system that allow fruad. today most intelligent people understnad that every adult citizen already has the right to vote no matter your skin color, sex, or gender. The right wingers wont allow the changes that will destroy the system, right wingers are far more intelligent that left wingers, left wingers dont even understand any issues they are 0 issue voters. They understand when there is a problem but are too lazy and stupid to listen to both sides and make their own descision that is educated and informed. You can sit down with any liberal and tell tehm their views. They all have the same views because they have never heard any alternative or different point of view. right wingers protect left wingers from themselves. if joe biden told you you need to give up all your constituional rights because constitutional rights are racist you would not only allow it you would fight for it. You would call right wingers racist for wanting to protect the rights black people faught a civil rights movement and a civil war for. today you already do this with freeom of speech, and 2nd amendment, and indirectly your voting rights by backing legislation that allows fraud not understanding that if right wingers votes do not count neither do yours and if they dont have politcal power neigther do you. This is why left wingers MUST be met with serious opposition, They are profoundly ignorant and have a VERY long record of bringing failure and misery everywhere they go. The top 1% already pays 45% of all income tax, the government is taking every thing from people and it is creating massive corruption and funding war all over the world. every dollar someone doesnt pay in taxes is a dollar that doesnt go toward war and murder. Instead it goes to creating products and services and thigns that are useful for the people and make their lives better. these people live in a fact free zone, when is the last time you saw a left winger win a debate, this is why they DO NOt have republicans on ever, its because they do not beleive in what they are saying and know they couldnt win a debate on any issue. This guy thinks that school choice is racist, some how forcing a kid to spend his life in a school system they hate is not racist. republicans want to allow poeple to choose their schools, the reaason why these schools suck is ebcause they have no insentive to make them work. You cannot fail classes of kids year after year in a charter or private school and still exist. liberal politicals vote against school choice while they send their own kids ot private schools. The reason why these peopel try so hard to discredit the supreme county is ebcause its the only institution that has not been corrupted and they cannot win if they cant cheat.

@@docmartyn Founding Father's = your dreams!

Instead of using the word 'people' insert the more realistic word MEN.ales continue to make 90+% of all domestic and foreign policy decisions not only in the US but globally. LOOK AROUND AND ASK YOURSELF HOW THAT'S BEEN WORKING OUT SO FAR AND FOR WHO'S PRIMARY BENEFIT.

@@71suns Yes, inequality between men and women has to be corrected. In Sweden women finally got voting rights as late as 1919. Sallaries are still unequal for a work that is considered to be done by a male here in Sweden, but if you are a woman working with such a "man job" you will get paid the same as a man, and if a man works with a job that is considered as a "woman job" you get paid as a woman. I combined my music playing with a "woman job" and did not earn much realtively, so now in pension, even if I many years worked 100% within a woman job, I come under substitence minimum and need to be compensated with housing allowanece.

Manifest destiny? What about Mexico, Argentina, Brazil...etc.? Do you think that Brazil was a gift from native people? Do you think that warfare, conquest, slavery or genocide were invented by white europeans? Or just that some ppl. are more savage than others, that ppl. with lighter skin colour are worse? There's a word for that kind of thinking - judging ppl. based on their skin colour. Same thing as Israel ? You should question education system or/and your worldview, ideology. How do you think Lebanon, Syria, Jordan...came to be? Or you don't care about those -other "western colonial projects" ?

Not many if libtard socialists keep getting people to vote for them

I fear that it already has

Well, that's what and why we're discussing things like this, as we see reform and reinvention is better than resigning oneself to a bad, unfair, unequal situation that only a few benefit from. That's why getting informed and discussing these issues is vital. Because, If we don't discuss these and other issues, same with any problem if you don't talk about it nothing changes, but as with any problem, define it, discuss it, propose solutions, decide whether change is advised or not. That's how problems are solved, so it's important to discuss these things.

​@jessikabat6200 it seems that Trump and his radical far right base (that only truly represents a minority of the people of the United States) seem to be actively working to destroy the country.

They suppress true democracy by not talking to the people about how close independents are to beating Biden 🔥

Robert A. Dahl makes some of the same points in HOW DEMOCRATIC IS THE AMERICAN CONSTITUTION. Even Dahl, however, doesn't specifically cite Robert's Rules, at least not in this book.

>paulkesler1744 : The Robert's Rules procedure for voting on motions has been thoroughly studied by political scientists, who call the procedure Sequential Pairwise voting or Pairwise Elimination. It's related to the ubiquitous single elimination tournaments used in many sports, where N-1 of N teams are eliminated using N-1 head-to-head matches; however sports use a _balanced_ binary tree (which minimizes the number of "byes") and Robert's Rules uses an unbalanced binary tree. Counting ALL of the head-to-head majorities and paying attention to their sizes is better than Robert's Rules' counting of only N-1 of the head-to-head majorities and ignoring their sizes. All of the head-to-head majorities can be counted using a single round of voting -- no primary elections or runoffs are needed -- by letting each voter rank the candidates in order of preference. The order of finish should be constructed by processing the head-to-head majorities one at a time, from largest majority to smallest majority, placing each majority's more-preferred candidate ahead of their less-preferred candidate in the order of finish. Game theory shows that voting method would create a strong incentive for politicians to support majority-preferred policies on many more issues, because a candidate X who supports a minority-preferred policy P creates an opportunity for another candidate Y to enter the race, support the majority-preferred policy Q, and on other issues support the same policies that X supports, in which case a majority of voters would tend to rank Y over X, causing X to finish no higher than second in the order of finish. It would reliably defeat extremists, and would lead to the end of political polarization. It would effectively eliminate spoiling, end the two party system, settle issues that primitive voting methods are unable to settle, and allow future elections to focus on new issues. Here's a variation of that voting method that would be as simple as possible for the voters: Instead of each voter expressing his/her order of preference, each _candidate_ would publish an order of preference a couple of weeks before Election Day. On Election Day, each voter would simply select one candidate, and his/her ballot would be tallied as if it expressed the ordering published by his/her selected candidate. For example, suppose Bernie Sanders and Larry Hogan were running too, and suppose Sanders published the ordering "Sanders Biden Hogan Trump." Then each voter who votes for Sanders would be counted as if they'd expressed Sanders' order of preference, and they'd be fully counted in each of the six head-to-head pairings: for Sanders over Biden, for Sanders over Hogan, for Sanders over Trump, for Biden over Hogan, for Biden over Trump, and for Hogan over Trump. But it should be noted that politicians' policies would be very different due to the much stronger incentive to support majority-preferred policies -- Medicare-for-All, higher minimum wage, abortion rights, etc -- so Sanders would presumably have other, better politicians to rank over Biden and the others.

@@brothermine2292 So the (rhetorical) question is why these alternatives aren't being implemented in the U.S.. Over time, both Presidential and Congressional authority have been usurped by the Supreme Court, and neither of the first two branches have posed significant opposition. Which is why "Santa Clara County vs. Southern Pacific Railroad" (1886) hasn't been overturned in more than a century, or "Buckley vs. Vallejo" (1976) or "Citizens United" (2010). These decisions gave corporations the rights of persons under the 14th Amendment, and why they've largely captured the federal government as well as the electoral process. Truth is, we've had these electoral alternatives for decades, but the *true* rulers (not politicians, but the billionaire investors who buy the viable candidates), do not want alternatives. Your suggestions are excellent, but their chances for implementation in America are meager to nonexistent. Our best chances, in my view, lie not in the electoral arena at all, but in labor activism, which has surged enormously over the last two years. But labor will also have to recruit community alliances; otherwise, the fascist collusion of corporate and government power will shut it down.

They're not going to be a democracy, they're a Republic! And they're imposing democracy using war in many places.
