Video: Elizabeth Warren definitively declares she is not running for President in 2016

These OPs and comments about a Warren run are a complete waste of time. In fact, if you watch the video, she rules out a run on either position of the national ticket.

Have you guys thought about Hellbanning instead of PPR'ing

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellbanning

Essentially all of their posts would have an ultra-hide where they would not be visible to any other users and not to search engines or anything else, but to them, it would seem as if they are still participating.

They might figure it out eventually, but it would greatly lengthen the time between where the same person could create active accounts and attempt to troll and disrupt.

I have a feeling that you guys have thought about this and ruled it out for some reason and if so would be curious to hear your reasoning and if not, please consider this as I think it would help frustrate attempts at trolling.

When we vote in the US, we choose between the Democratic Party and insanity, or a close cousin

"A Democracy/Republic requires a minimum of two viable parties/choices. Right now in the US, we only have one. We have a choice between the Democratic Party, and insanity, or at least a close cousin"

- Me during my conversation with Susan Eisenhower in our discussion about the modern Republican Party.

If you haven't heard this show, you should, the analysis of the modern GOP with Susan Eisenhower is attracting a LOT of interest!
