If you can only win the Olympic 400m gold medal by making a backwards somersault over the finish, that sucks, but if that's the rule beforehand, it's clear for everyone and the winner is the one who does that The electors didn’t have to vote for him, their not bound to any form of vote, they could’ve chosen you president if they wanted to. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Be that as it may, my point stands: Trump is, factually speaking, the president of every American citizen.

Socialist?, is sad to me read that for an American, your country dont suffer socialism like countrys like mine but in the forum you can find people of countrys with terribles consequences, in your country in the last election i probably voted for Gary Johnson if i was American, i see you are very young for your profile.

Well, I would’ve just be glad if you voted. So many people didn’t vote in our election . I’m also not fully socialist, I’m more democratic socialist. “Sport has the power to change the world.

I’m pretty Obama never declared war on the Middle East, so I’m sure as to how that’s a fact. Also common decency (political correctness) is just being a good human. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

You dont need to declare a formal war like in the past to atacck another country, for your age is normal that you dont remember but i give you one example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_military_intervention_in_Libya The political correctness is just a totalitary cultural form to impose some values like absolutes and unquestionable, if you think at least a little diference, you will be attack by people and lobbys and putting in a place of "inhuman", like the Nazi Germany or the USSR did in the past, i remember a world without this "humanitary" way to think and it was MUCH better, now the free speach is in big danger. do you want to know why a guy like Trump won the elections in your country?, one of the reasons is the what tired is the common people with the political correctness.

Or because I’m surrounded by people with racial issues, and a false belief in populism. I’m pretty certain almost every sovereign nation is meddling in each other’s affairs. Right rather have a politically correct President than one who: has bragged about assaulting woman, caged children, banned people because of their religion, used business as a way to justify his denial in science, declared victory over our allies, blames everything on people he doesn’t like, talks with the vocabulary of a 5 year old, pulled my country closer to autocratic leaders, invited the Russians to meddle in our elections, went bankrupt multiple times, has denied facts throughout his term, created fake “fake news”, used race baiting as an excuse to bring back derogatory practices. He doesn’t seem to represent the average person, and he certainly doesn’t represent the America I know. Political correctness saves us from administrations like NAZI Germany, the USSR, military junta’s, and autocratic leaders. I also don’t think that age determines a person’s knowledge on a subject. I am one of the kids in the state for knowledge in geography, politics, and history. Of course the older “wiser” generations use age as a way to justify a reaction against new ideas. hckošice, Bohemia and Quasit 3 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
