    Why do commentators make such a big deal about Trumps children and their glowing descriptions of him?
    I mean come on. If I was running for president I’m sure my daughter and wife would say things just as glowing about me. And even assuming its all true, what does it matter? Ronald Reagan was despised by his two younger children. FDR was poorly regarded by his children overall. Jimmy Carter was beloved by his children. What relationship does being an adored father have to do with being a good president?
    None at all.
    Secondly, what is the big deal about Hillary Clinton’s running mate Tim Kaine knowing how to speak Spanish? To me hyping this ability illustrate a rather provincial attitude if not out right racism against Hispanic Americans. It makes it sound like Hispanics are some kind of ghettoized group living in homelands in the U.S. isolated from American society. I’ve met lots of people of Mexican descent and even those who are undocumented speak English quite well.
    Ignoring the fact that millions of white and black Americans can speak Spanish and many didn’t even have to take the high school level course to do so.

    One side wants to deport them all, build a wall and called mexicans rapists and murderers.

    But your criticism is on how the other side speaks Spanish?

    Not all Hispanics are grouped together by language, but there is a significant number of voters that have Spanish as their first language, and there is nothing wrong with that. After all, none of us have forgotten how you were taking in Jeb Bush's whole cock and balls in your mouth in one go over the fact that his wife was Mexican and that he could speak Spanish himself.

    You partisan hack. :dayton:

    I fully agree. It's public relations bullshit and has little to do with policy.

    But then, policy is barely covered during the elections.

    You mistake me for some who didn't confused Jeb Bush for a dog turd on my lawn. I never could tell the difference between the two. Much as I love W as the smartest and most able leader in human history, Jeb would be hard pressed to outsmart swimming pool algae.

    So speaking Spanish is insulting to Spanish people because it makes them seem ghetto. Wow, that has truly amazed me. Did you hurt yourself with that bit of mental gymnastics? I could not imagine the amount of drugs I would have to do to be that Fucking stupid, but it would be a lot. I do hope someone records this to your greatest hits because that was prime fucknugget.

    Not what I said. Nor what I meant. What I’m saying is that the ASSUMPTION that Hispanics would want to vote for someone because they speak Spanish is ultimately based on the racist notion that Hispanics in the U.S. are a marginalized minority living largely separate from the rest of American society. Which is flat out not true.

    I would guess that Hispanics want to vote for someone who speaks Spanish, because they feel they have a connection and the candidate may have a better understanding of their needs and requirements.

    Why is it that you only vote for 'old white man'? and continually refer to your current President as a novelty?

    From the Hispanics I do know:

    Yes, it helps to have a connection. A
    Especially when one candidate is going out of his way to call the lot of them moochers and criminals. It's not the only thing, but it's a bonus.

    I love the evolution of Dayton during this election cycle.

    "I think Trump is crazy and would be bad for America."

    "I would only vote for trump if certain criteria was met."

    "If he picked so and so for VP I would totally vote for trump."

    And now he's creating threads trying to defend him over the most mundane things, like how the media perceives his children.

    We all knew you'd vote trump from the start you unemployable oaf, no democrat is ever going to give you the crazy Supreme Court nominees you desire so much.

    Yeeesh, what's with obvious partisan hacks trying not to appear partisan? Just own it.

    People want to vote for people who are more like them. That's not an assumption. It's a fact. People vote for people who represent their values.

    It's why you'll vote for racist douchebags who share your values every four years.

    I've never voted for a racist in my life. At least none that were known to be racist.

    So when you vote for Trump, that will be a first? Or do you somehow think he isn't a racist?

    Trump isn't racist. He's long hired blacks, Latinos, and others into high positions in his organization. In fact, he was just about the first person in big construction to put women in charge. He also opened up elite Palm Beach society to blacks and Jews. He kept filing lawsuits until they were accepted at all the country clubs down there. He loves shattering glass ceilings.

    Hillary, on the other hand, is Archie Bunker in a pant suit. She used to yak about hillbillies and n****rs and said gay marriage must never be allowed. She's a corrupt narrow-minded hick from Hicksville.
