US Politics

Hitler was elected by one man one vote under Constitution of the Weimar Republic.

Stop reading internet stupidity. Hitler abolished the democratic form of government when he came to power, any ruler who abolishes democracy have no right to be called a democratically elected leader. He becomes a dictator.

Disciplines are one of the key factors for human success, besides, today's India is indeed a zombie state, see how many new infections you get daily.

A country that suppresses information losses its right to call out others using the free information available to the public. It's again like Hitler saying I am a democratically elected leader.

what do china have with democracy ?
stay away from communism then talk .

Seeing a failing system, everyone can mock it.

India doesn't suppress information? Actually India kills more journalists than most countries in the world each year. Besides, you make tons of lies and rumors, your sources of information has zero credibility.

That's how it should be, let the majority decide what's best for all.

4 people sit around the table, decide how to divide the cake. 3 of them organized a party, and divide the cake into 3. The one who is minority can sit and applaud the western democracy.

What a bull$hit theory.

In India, the majority of Hindu made a party called BJP. They decide the divide the cake of India. The minority Muslim can applaud the western democracy and enjoy the Ram temple at razed mosque site.

This is called Tyranny of Majority. Which is the core of western democracy.

Stop reading internet stupidity. Hitler abolished the democratic form of government when he came to power, any ruler who abolishes democracy have no right to be called a democratically elected leader. He becomes a dictator.

How funny you are. Hitler was elected by the rules of election. Others can do it as well. Such as Modi and Trump.

As long as you gain enough power, you can do anything you want. Nothing can stop Hitler, nothing can stop Modi if he accumulate as much power as Hitler.

If Hitler can abolish democracy, Modi may be able to do it as well. The only obstacle is how much power Modi gained.

Actually Modi is on the way to gain as much power as Hitler. Do you know when Modi banned Chinese goods, he needs parliament approval? He did NOT. He just announced the ban on the TV and Twitter, that's it. No one dare to challenge Modi regarding parliament approval at all. Modi is the law.

Whatever democracy be, the only thing that has consistently failed is Communism.

Communist China disproves this.

Also. the main reason communism and socialism failed IN MY OPINION is consistent, aggressive interference by the US. Only China was able to overcome that, lets be honest.

Communist China is more successful than Democratic India. thats just the truth and hot tea.

Political scientist professor who has correctly predicted every presidential election since 1984 says Biden will win in 2020.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/allan-lichtman-presidential-election-accurate-prediction-trump-biden/

The election will be a close one and may even lead to legal troubles a la 2000.

You know what's funny? I've actually been telling quite a few people about this professor's prediction and how he has been correct on every election since 1984 including Trump in 2016 which that fact alone gave him a lot of consideration. Then all these friends of mine whom I've mentioned this to -- thanks to you bringing it up -- have all been reminding me of him since yesterday and I found it fascinating that they all remembered this and sort of held on to the thought in the back of their minds, I suppose to give them hope! lol! Imagine that? I guess the guy looks to have kept his impressive streak going.

We'll have to check in with his 13 point prediction eventually when the next election comes along.

Presidential election 2020. To win the election candidates needs 270 electoral votes.

Where things stand.

Six states are still counting their ballots:

Alaska (3 electoral votes), Arizona (11), Georgia (16), Nevada (6), North Carolina (15) and Pennsylvania (20).

Trump has 214 electoral votes and would need 56 more to win. Joe Biden has 253 electoral votes and would only need 17 more to win.

Biden is leading in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and Pennsylvania. Trump has a lead in Alaska and North Carolina.

Biden has many paths to win 270 electoral votes:

1. If he only wins Pennsylvania, he’ll have 273 electoral votes.

2. If he wins Arizona and Nevada, he’ll have 270.

3. If he wins Georgia and Nevada, he’ll have 275.

4. Or he could win Arizona and Georgia, he’ll have 280.

The bottom line is, say hi to Pres. Biden and bye-bye to Trump.

You know, somewhat lost in all this amazing up and down election and Biden coming through and Trump throwing all sorts of idiotic rumors of fraud out there without a shred of evidence to back them up and this and that................is the fact that we should be getting the first female VP before ever getting the first female president and Kamala Harris is an excellent representative for that position and hopefully when all this other crap settles, she'll get the recognition she deserves.

ANYTHING can fail ANYEHERE.
Except COMMUNISM. Except IN CHINA.

I’m also a big fan of the professor, I also was planning to post his analysis/predictions but then a good friend @cloud4000 posted it.

Definitely a historic moment for women in politics. I expect she will run for President in 2028 and potentially 2024 if Biden decided to step down.

I actually thought that because of Biden's age and whatever other reasons, that this might've been the plan from all along that to get rid of the incumbent and the only one with the pedigree to do it now was Biden, but that he really didn't want 8 years of what is really a SUPER HECTIC job and that he would hand it over early to Harris if she can pull it off. It seems like that might've been the plan all along, or I could be way off!

Totally agree! And I think she will greatly benefit by working with Biden.

 

[F-22Raptor]

Trumps ego is big enough where I could see him running for President again in 24, but he’d be setting himself up for an embarrassing defeat if he weren’t nominated by the Republican Party.

I agree those two vids make sense.

They sure do. Glad you agree.

I agree he was a showpiece along with Hillary Clinton, meant to show that America could now have Blacks and Women at the top-most position in the country whatever be the base thinking of those people. Remember Hillary's laughingly said "We came, we saw, he died" in 2011 ?

I do, that was disgusting. A totally senseless murder, in concert with the Sauds and other regional players because of oil and the pipeline but look what they brought up upon themselves in the form of an exacerbated refugee crisis and what's happening in Europe now.

Well, I never hated Trump though many others did. But he too is not the wisest of leaders ( though he was correct in your second vid ). For example, under his command America is pulling out of Afghanistan but the Taliban will be part of the coming governments there. Why couldn't America listen to Afghan progressives like the SPA ( Solidarity Party of Afghanistan ) and get them into the coming government ? Because the SPA is a leftist group.

So Trump may be better than the Bushes and Obomba but he too has something lacking.

There's no such thing as a perfect system or leader that absolutely all 100% of any society or group of people will agree on.

Trump foreign policy: no new wars, defeated ISIS, peace deal and Afghan pullout, initiated historic dialogue with the DPRK instead of confronting them militarily, peace deal between Israelis and Arabs, peace deal between Serbia and Kosovo, no regime change in Syria, restraint against Iran, no escalation with Russia over the Donbass, stepped in and diffused to an extent the India - Pak skirmish....

deserves credit for that because people said/thought the opposite of him. That he was a madman who will start WW3. Not the case, was it ?

Switzerland, the Libyan Jamahiriya.

Swiss still highly regulate arms ownership, they're a unique case of super direct democracy, not applicable to any other for a variety of reasons.

not sure about Gaddafi's Libya and arms ownership.. Libya, Yemen, Pakistan are probably not the best examples of responsible armed polite societies

I liked this they say :

of course you like the American socialists, you're a damn commie..

Part of the development is because the world itself has moved and part is because of the steps that Nehru, Ambedkar and comrades had taken.

Yet things like oppression against Dalits, women, peasants, Muslims, intellectuals remain.

Nehru et all just happened to be in charge of the formative years of a young modern nation state of India.

and disagree, only marxist "intellectuals" are being pushed back against, they sure as hell are not opressed , the rest is societal problems that are mostly beyond the scope of government (no matter what type) to solve.

I will give an example of the change. Nowadays there are web series' in India with foul language. That is tolerated. But there are certain films that simply cannot be made. Can Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro with its final drama scene be made now ? Can a film portraying the Naxals in fairly critiquing light be made ?

Another example. What about inter-caste and inter-religion marriages ? Can these be done now without the right-wingers raising hue and cry ?

What about the open rallies in Jammu by BJP supporters in favor of the Kathua rape / torture culprit ? BJP raised hue and cry about the Palghar lynching but didn't raise voice in favor of Rohith Vemula.

In media trolls and warmongers like Arnab Goswami are being felicitated while good journalists are being harassed, arrested and their offices shutdown.

Lynchers are fearless.

All these things are now done openly, without fear of legal retribution.

again, movies and culture are societal things, not something government can solve.

"Lynchers" may be fearless but the law still applies, we're not that much of a banana republic yet, not even close to being one.
