Elizabeth Warren is one of the leading Democrat candidates for president. Does the fact that she lied about being Native American to get into Harvard and to get jobs bother you? Would it prevent you from voting for her if she were...

I voted this morning because we have a local election over here. It's crazy they called us again and asked if we have voted. I thought it was a candidate, turns out they had been low number of voters today, so they try to get as...

I admit I'm pretty much being quiet about them all these days, at least not commenting on them. I already sent off for my mail in ballot as I know who I am voting for. No, I won't tell who that is.
I am paying attention to what's...

I wasn't going to watch this because I can't stand either candidate, but the topic itself had me curious. It was regarding our military and the plans both candidates had on their agendas.

Fist fights, grabbing, sucker punches, leaked "tweets", spouse photos and more. Does it seem like this is the nastiest primary season you can recall?
I remember tasteless advertisements, off handed comments and ignorant...

Do you exercise your right to vote?

This political season has become quite toxic. Candidates are bending over backwards to show how extreme they can be. Lies are abundant. It seems like telling the truth about issues and subjects is a crime. Groups are targeted...

I am having a very difficult time swallowing the fact that Trump is leading the polls just for saying whatever is on his mind. It doesn't seem to matter if he's right or wrong. He shows lack of respect for others and acts out on...
