Mind linking me to something that proves that.

EDIT: After years of denying the Armenian genocide, Cenk Uygur now says he doesn’t know enough about it to say anything


Hahahahahaha. If that's a proper rescindal....he should be a comedian instead. What a joke.

 

It's a YouTube channel.

 

Mmmmmm fetishization!!!

 

I think I elaborated above. Nixon had a solid white majority, to which he could appeal. The other constituencies could be considered negligible. That is no longer the case.

 

Kaine is the pick. Still think that's a mistake.

 

Yeah....blech. So boring and unappealing to anybody, left or center.

 

Ugh. Jesus fucking Christ. Apparently, the push to the left by Sanders had to be counteracted. If these aren't portents of things to come, I don't know what is.

 

Swing and a miss.

 

I'm voting Stein.

 

Kaine is a terrible pick. To get my vote and I am sure many others Hillary needed to pick someone more progressive than her to prove she is serious about a progressive agenda. Tim Kaine clearly does not do that. Honestly I was hoping for Warren, but she can be useful in the senate. Oh well, Hillary, you tried. Not good enough though, gonna have to try harder.

 

Not being familiar at all with Kaine, what's so bad/bland about him?

 

Yeah same, I hadn't heard of him until this week. Who would have been the best or at least better pick? I don't know much about many in congress unfortunately.

 

Is Clinton a Progressive? Not If She Chooses Tim Kaine - Rewire

 

Tim Kaine Calls To Deregulate Banks As He Campaigns To Be Clinton's VP

 

Warren.

 

Tim Kaine may be the breaking point for me with Hillary. I was back and forth already but a white, fairly conservative male? like... is she even trying

 

Apparently Kaine is anti-abortion?

 

Was. For quite a while. Has changed his stance but it's plenty disconcerting that he was and for a long time.

 

Tim Kaine's abortion predicament

 

Trying to win over right of center voters?

 

So I assume that Hillary knew ahead of time the kind of complaints that would generate once she picked Kaine; she surely must have known how disappointed a lot of people would be with the pick. So then what do you think are her main reasons for choosing him? Among all the others she could have picked, for this very important election where her opponent is an tangerine Caligula, she chooses Kaine; why?

 

idk i think it would have made more sense to shoot for the moon. Trump is shooting far right with Pence, she could easily sell a more liberal candidate to center/center-right supporters

 

Hillary hasn't given a fuck about Bernie supporters since day one and has done little to win them over as far as I'm concerned. This cements it.

 

In her defense a lot, not all , wouldn't vote for her regardless, but yeah
