Jimmy McMillan, founder of The Rent Is Too Damn High party told the New York Daily News that he is endorsing Nuts for his party's nomination. Deez Nuts may be a 15-year-old farm boy from Iowa, but according to McMillan, Nuts has what it takes to make his mark on U.S. politics.[/quote] [quote][b]"Deez Nuts can get the young people excited."[/b][/quote] is my country even real anymore
It was never real to begin with.
[QUOTE=woolio1;48519176]It was never real to begin with.[/QUOTE] well when you consider that a candidate named "Deez Nuts" was just endorsed by a man who's beard looks like a pair of testicles, I'm beginning to think I've been in a coma since about 2012 and this is all just an increasingly bizarre lucid dream
Didn't Deez Nuts turn out to be a 15 year old? [sp]Here's my rant about people that age spitting out any vine "meem" for 10 weeks before forgetting about it entirely[/sp]

As a Canadian, I am deeply afraid for America right now. From what I've seen / heard so far, you have 4 runners: Donald Trump - A billionaire without any grasp on reality Hillary Clinton - A homophobic ex-president's wife that repeatedly makes terrible decisions Deez Nuts - A joke from a 15 year old Bernie Sanders - The only sane person

Jeb Bush - Governor of Florida, sort of the "generic republican" choice, third in the Bush Monarchy. Ben Carson - Wildly homophobic neurosurgeon who compares the US to Nazi Germany. Chris Christie - Fatass who tanked NJ's economy. Ted Cruz - A Texan senator and "birther" born in Canada who does nothing but hate Obama. Carly Fiorina - Literally the CEO of Hewlett-Packard. Rand Paul - Daddy's little mini libertarian who's solidly anti-government entirely. Scott Walker - Rabidly pro-corporate-interests Wisconsin governor who tanked the state economy. Rick Perry - Old Texan governor who thinks gays are like alcoholics and that the BP oil spill was an act of God. Marco Rubio - Florida senator who thinks the Iran nuclear deal is a Islamist plan to bring about the 13th Imam. And like 6 other ones. It's a shitshow this year, and it's lovely.

[QUOTE=Swilly;48521516]We haven't hit Brazil levels insane.[/QUOTE] do you mean the movie or the country
[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;48521652]do you mean the movie or the country[/QUOTE] probably the movie so i'll just pretend my other post was just totally ironic
I hope the success of Deez Nuts leads the Monster Raving Loony Party to a comeback in 2020. Maybe we can even have a councillor or two.

[QUOTE=Psychokitten;48522804]I was under the impression that Walker was actually fairly reasonable.[/QUOTE] Not at all. He's done a lot of absurd shit. The Supreme Court overturned his voter ID law - and he defended it by saying that it would be okay to establish voting restrictions because it would mean that no "real" votes would be discounted by "illegal" votes, ignoring that studies showed that 300,000 minorities would essentially be unable to vote during the year he proposed the law. He thinks the minimum wage - [I]any minimum wage[/I] - doesn't serve a purpose. He repealed an equal pay law that allowed people suffering from wage discrimination to more easily take their cases to court. He's rabidly anti-union and pro-deregulation in almost every way. He promised 250,000 jobs in his first term - barely got over 100,000. He created the WEDC, which was under fire for handing out money to corporations to "create jobs" that didn't actually create enough jobs - like $18 million to Kestrel Aircraft for a planned 665 jobs, creating only 24. He slashed $250 million from the budget of the University of Wisconsin, which was once a seriously reputable state school that has dropped to nearly the level of a community college since he took office. He also proposed that the University of Wisconsin and all related state schools be placed under the private authority of governor-appointed Board of Regents. He also removed laws that protected tenure for state professors, and he hugely expanded the voucher program to pay for students tuition at private high-schools while slashing public high-school budgets. He entirely defunded Planned Parenthood in the state, and put in laws that force doctors to administer ultrasounds to people seeking abortions so they can see the fetus. [I]Without a doubt[/I] he's the worst presidential candidate on education. He's butchered a once-respected state school system, sucked the money out of it, and then started handing out money to pay for peoples' private school tuition. He wants privatized everything with zero minimum wage and next to no workers' rights.
