Cool. I know you're joking, but I really hope nothing of the sort happens (to any candidate for that matter).
The chance of it being Bernie vs Trump has grown larger in recent months. At least we know what they think. Buckle in gents, cause 2016 promises to be one HADES of a ride. Huzzah!
now I immagine baskit looking over his left shoulder, slowly walking backwards creeping up on people.
I saw this post and the dilbert one and it reminded me of something. This post below is from Scott Adams the creator of dilbert. His blog has a lot of interesting concepts I am sure many would enjoy. "Under the Master Persuader filter, where reason is an illusion, I like to watch how stereotypes are shaping up in order to know what’s really happening. Forget about policies for now. Let’s look at the stereotypes we are starting to form in our minds for the major candidates. For Trump, we have the “angry white male racists” stereotype for his supporters. As with all stereotypes, it has enough grains of truth to hold it’s shape, but it isn’t an actual truth. Likewise, in the stereotyped world of our biased brains, Hillary Clinton’s supporters fall into three groups now: 1. Women 2. Unarmed men 3. Rapists Ted Cruz’ supporters are mostly Canadians and ultra-conservative Republicans who can’t get past Trump’s haircut. Again, this is just the cartoon versions forming in our minds, not any kind of truth. But Bernie Sanders is the interesting one. His strongest base of support is people in their early twenties. As stereotypes go, that’s a good one. In our biased minds, Bernie doesn’t have supporters who are racists, rapists, or Canadians. His supporters are young, healthy, college kids. Advantage: Sanders But here’s the funny part. And I wonder if you already see it. What distinction do the young have – as voters – that is different from the racists, rapists, Canadians, angry white men, unarmed men, conservative Republicans, and women? Answer: The young are the stupidest voters I say this with affection. I was once young myself. And I know how little I understood about the world then, compared to now. My IQ was about the same, but in terms of wisdom and perspective, I was operating at about 10% of my potential. That’s probably true for everyone. We start ignorant and we improve with age. Just to be clear, what I’m saying is that even if Sanders supporters were ALSO racists, rapists, Canadians, ultra-conservative Republicans, women, and angry white men – they would be the dumbest among that grouping. The young are the dumbest (in terms of politics) in EVERY group. In a world of reason, the candidate with the strongest support among young (i.e. dumb) voters would seem the most ridiculous. Instead, we see it as the best possible situation for a candidate, in terms of the optics of it. It looks great to have the young on your side, with their energy and optimism. When you think of Sanders – and whether you like him or not – you probably have in your mind that he’s the adult in the conversation. He doesn’t seem to intentionally say things he knows to be untrue. You can question the math of his policies, or the practicality, but it does look as if he means what he says. And what does Sanders get for being so rational and reasonable? He gets the dumbest supporters."
Or, he has the most supporters that haven't been influenced by a toxic system. This younger generation is perceived to be more open and caring towards others. Bernie sanders for the most reasonable supporters towards their fellow man? Where are all these christians at?
I'm going to agree with Burns and someone has to say it;Scott adams looks like a conservative white rapist and Dilbert isn't funny/
Interesting theory, but I think it confuses idealistic, naïve, optimistic and a few other things with 'dumb'. The young aren't dumb, but they haven't become used to accepting certain crap as inevitable.
I think he might be lumping all those things into one term - dumb, but I don't speak for him so don't know. " but in terms of wisdom and perspective, I was operating at about 10% of my potential"
People studying the hardest topics mankind has to find? Must be more stupid than some McD worker, some army goon or some farmer who never got off his farm other than to abduct new genes for his family!
Gots to work on your reading comprehension. Otherwise u will continue to meander. I believe in u man.
Studying a complex topic is super easy. Getting an A- or better in that class is easy. Application is uber tough.
I'm not saying that young people don't have a tendency towards a certain kind of stupid, but racists and other extreme right wingers have a rather obvious tendency towards a type of stupid too.
