Could someone tell me how we could EVER revise election donation laws?

The fast majority of politicians DEPEND on the BIG money, and, of course, they are BEHOLDEN to the donors.
NOW -- just who thinks this will change? The very ones who COULD change this are the very ones befitting from
being 'a bought' Politicipng is EVER going to pass legislation that can change that??

You think GOP dislikes a 'black' president, wait

until they have to go up against Hilary. As we all know, the GOP has worked
for years to take women's rights away from them. Just what do you think
they will do if HRC wins?? I think they would shut the government down,
ending the America and the democracy we have known, even tho it has problems, it is still much better off than it was under any GOP pres.
They will do anything to fight against HRC, and they will disregard
good ole Bernie. I think this is another good reason for us to elect
Bernie. We will simple say to them SURPRISE SURPRISE!!! They have already made a big deal over him, but then remember, they never seem to LEARN
from all their past (and present) mistakes. Each of us must work every day
from now to election day to be sure EVERY democrat votes.

Stupid is as stupid does!

If anyone else has wondered if Trump was smart of dumb, all you have to
know now is he will want Sarah Palin on his staff when he become president.
Any doubt about his intelligence, or lack thereof, now??

Not only do I think Bernie

has the very BEST platform for America, I think he is showing more COMMON sense
than any other politician. He is running on what he thinks America needs, not on
what he thinks a lot of repugs thinks.
In another word, V O T E F O R B E R N I E!!!!!

Let's take a look at experience in office

So Bernie has many years in elected office.
So Hillary has 0 years in elected office.
Talking politics with a spouse is not the same as being in office.

Response times?

I have DSL with Verizon. My response times are getting so bad on ALL sites, that I frequently
get a 'page can't be displayed' (time out?). Is anyone else getting bad response times?
When they changed something on the internet, I recall reading that response times would probably suffer. My response times seem to get slower and slower each day. Today
is the worse yet?

If we stopped discussing the following, what would that leave us?

Confederate flag, Trump, Roof, lgbt's, -- well, that is not all of the 'hot' topics,
but I think sometimes these thing just go on and on far to long, and that
isn't just here on DU.
Any one else just get tired of these 'breaking news' that keep breaking for
days and days sometimes. (2 convicts is another one)
