So just curious who you guys plan on voting for, out of who's left I'd have to say I like Rubio the best.. However I don't know if he has the momentum to beat clinton, so despite his obvious character flaws and my distrust of him I may end up voting trump..
 
Well....I wholeheartedly do not engage in political conversations as it causes utter chaos in life. I will gladly engage once the primaries are completed and we have our candidates. BEFORE I am attacked I am very conservative. So perhaps that will keep many off my back as to the way I lean. I am simply saying I cannot say I am voting for.....as we DO NOT have our candidates. I know whom I would like, however that candidate may not be on my ballot.
 
I can't speak for others, but I have no interest in attacking people, not even the Hillary supporters that I very much disagree with.. Mainly just looking for others opinions why they like or don't like a canadite, maybe I'll learn something I didn't know.
 
Not really news, and miscellaneous by its nature covers many topics.. There isn't a politics forum this is kind of a miscellaneous topic therefore this seemed the best place for it. If a mod sees it and decides different than so be it.... Otherwise if your going to reply your opinion on the topic would be appreciated.

By the time my state has our primaries, there won't be many left to vote for. I tend to wait until then to figure out who to vote for.
 
I'd be curious to know what issues are most important to people.

In my case, social issues have always taken a dominant role in my voting decision. In addition, in this cycle, I have great concern for our national security and the continued threats of ISIS. Border security and the deficit are additional big concerns.

Because of my social issues positions, the Democratic candidates get eliminated immediately.
 
I agree national security is one of the biggest issues I'm looking at, wich does eliminate the democrats... I'm also looking for someone who will undo some of the mistakes made by the current adminstration.. Economic issues come in next for me after security.
 
Correct. We don't have a Politics Forum...........so the News Forum usually gets threads/questions that aren't REALLY News. I have put threads there that were not News so much as they were simple questions/statements concerning Politics.

I'm ok with it being here though, 'cause this IS the Miscellaneous Forum. :) Nothing more miscellaneous than Politics! :)

Anyway.............IF you are interested in considering some Scripture............before you actually decide to vote for Trump, consider these words from Scripture:

Yes his pride is one of the character flaws I mentioned earlier. Trust me if I vote for trump it want be because I think he is a good christian man, it'll be because I think he may stand a chance of beating Clinton.. Out of the two I believe Trump is the lesser of two evils.
