OK I read it....
Stupid people get outwitted by a slightly smarter, but charismatic, salesman.
It works in business. It works even better in politics.
What else is new?

See, I'm no Democrat, but I wouldn't call Bernie "stupid" OR Hilary "charismatic". She and her pals DID "outwit" him though...

Actually I was referring to the "starving brokers"......
Have you ever met a reasonably intelligent broker who was starving?
Have you ever met any reasonably intelligent humans who believe a presentation by someone who's going to "make them rich?

"But I am willing to speculate" sums up this article just fine..

Read the whole issue.
Trump is a scam artist. In the 90s, it was Trump Hotels and Casinos, which went bankrupt.
Then it was Trump University.
And his biggest scam yet is the Presidency.

Not gonna publish that, but agree with everything you just wrote regarding the DNC and the corporate media.

Sorry to say, but this election is like being asked to choose which nut you want cut off, the left or the right

Here's another good reason not to vote for Hillary and the Democrats. Mac has it right about the collusion between the DNC and the corporate media. He's right about that.

But you gotta know who you're voting for if you think Donald Trump is the answer.

Face it...
No matter how you vote, Hillary will get the electoral votes from NJ.
and
Either Hillary or Trump will be the next president.
BUT
Will it be a "Mandate"?
If Johnson and Stein can draw enough votes so the winner gets less than 50% of the popular vote, the winner doesn't have a plausible "mandate".
Personally, although I have some reservations, I'm a lot more comfortable with Johnson than I am with either of the major party candidates.
Of course, Beetle will be voting for whoever the Communist party endorses. They haven't had their own candidate since 1984. Last time around, they endorsed Obama.

Pete, you are correct to say I haven't decide who to support in the election.
But GB Mag went to Philadelphia to participate in the fart-in protest of the Hillary nomination.
The organizer of the fart-in was arrested, I think, for passing out plates of beans to Bernie delegates, but the fart-in was a major success and will be covered in the next issue of GB Mag.

From Garfield, NJ, a "favorite son".
If you don't want them to endorse Hillary or Stein, you better hurry up and go sign that petition, or he won't be on the ballot.

I wasn't implying that you were a Democrat. You've gone on record several times praising and thanking Communists ....
Unfortunately, since 1984, the Communists have been endorsing Democrats for President. Given what's been revealed lately, there's a real chance that this time they might support a "Green".
So go sign that petition and get a real commie on the ballot, so you can "vote your conscience".

Will Johnson be included in the debates?

He needs a couple more points in the polls... and is also taking the "debate people" to court to get in, so probably not, but we can all hope some sanity is brought to the big show.....

This made me want to take a look.
I've gotta say, I was impressed with the Trump cover story.
I think GB is slyly showing us why Trump is the right man for the job.
GB wrote about the lies Trump told to "sell" Americans on the plan to rebuild AC by buying his stock.
Anybody remember:
If you like your plan, you can keep your plan?
If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor?
Obamacare won't raise taxes? (then the Supreme Court said premiums were a tax)
Healthcare costs would decrease $2500? (and they've actually gone up.)
Illegal immigrants wouldn't be eligible for healthcare?
GB seems to be saying that Trump has all the requisite skills that Obama had to pass legislation.
Well done GB.

Unfortunately you're probably right.
What does it say about the so called mainstream, when the "grownup" is also the pothead?

Why unfortunately???????!!!!!
Ahhh, but that "pothead" has scaled the largest peak on every continent and ran ironman races and triathlons, and has also been one of the most successful governors in the history of the USA.....He has also abstained since he started his campaign...yeah, weed is bad ...it will destroy you...another example of our idiotic government and their impact on society...weed is bad and has no medicinal purposes.....idiots...all so some friends could make more money...idiots...
VOTE GARY JOHNSON and "Make America Sane Again"......

Actually, there's a lot more to the Libertarian drug policy than pot, but with a legislature consisting of Republicans and Democrats, it's the only "drug" he's likely to get legalized in the near future.Why unfortunately???????!!!!!

If you set the drug issue aside.....
Most of the issues where Libertarians seem to side with Liberals, are battles that the conservatives have already lost. Any changes would be incremental.
Most of the issues where Libertarians seem to side with Conservatives, are battles that are still being fought. He could benefit the conservative cause on these.
To me, the important one... A libertarian President is unlikely to appoint "Activist Judges", who are going to restrict our rights or raise our taxes "from the bench", that's the function of the legislature.
