  1. A political Christian is someone who uses Christian beliefs to make policies. Christianity influences how they think governments and society should be run on issues like gay marriage, abortion, etc.
  2. This wording could be misunderstood. Father of the Constitution James Madison was the lightest ever at 100 lbs.
  3. @Joshe it's possible. Don't forget to factor in rust and mileage.
  4. @Hardkill Then in 1864, Lincoln chose Democrat, Andrew Johnson, as his running mate, being the last time a dem/rep ticket ran. They ran under the National Union Party to promote unity during the Civil War.
  5. An elephant in a vacuum. It exists, and it is small, relatively.
  6. Alan Lichtman's model is like an old, reliable car. It has a long history of getting the job done, and it still works well today. But sooner or later, it might stop working, and you're just hoping it lasts a little longer. As the world changes, especially with new technology and shifting politics, there’s a chance that this model won’t keep up forever. Let's just hope it's not today. As for how I think about the election situation itself, it could be better, and it could be worse. I’m just glad the Democrats have a fair chance, about 50%, of winning. It would feel hopeless if their chances were slim.
  7. Before we criticize MAGA we must first steel man MAGA.
  8. Oh, okay. Off-topic, you should use the word smorgasbord in the next two videos on this topic also.
  9. @Leo GuraYou have said that when people like Trump uses his/her mind to con the public, that that's not really intelligence, which I agree. You now say that Putin's Brain wants to regress Russia back to premodernism and that for that plan he is genius. What's the difference?
  10. Of the three isms in the video, I relate to postmodernism the most by far. Some notes from the postmodern perspective: The primal thing in human discourse and even human activity is not truth seeking. It's survival. Postmodernism is not a grand narrative. Take it as a perspective. Truth is socially justified beliefs. Truth is what your contemporaries let you get away with.
  11. Vance is going to have to couch his words very carefully in this debate. 😄
  12. Did anyone just ask Alexa why she is giving answers for Kamala and not for Trump?
