    I mean, it is kind of hard to get past the laughing at Biden, he's a funny guy, says stupid s--- sometimes, he's obviously QUALIFIED to be President.
    I do have a hard time IMAGINING him as President, though. But I doubt it is a test he'd have trouble passing given that he's already been the Vice President
    The whole "Presidential" thing is as much about style as substance, and it is kind of like obscenity- you recognize it when you see it. There is definitely some subjectivity and reasonable room for disagreement.
    I think there are a lot of people who like Joe Biden, think he's a nice guy to have around, thought he was awesome in the way he dismantled Paul Ryan in the 2012 debate. But I think there are a fair number of people who are going to have trouble making that mental leap beyond the funny guy who says malarkey and big f---ing deal to the leader of the free world

    hopefully Trump doesnt win. Is he seriously that stupid that hed build a border wall between US and Mexico? thats just going to cause tension and start s---.
    Im not american but i think US is similar to Canada atm. If Trump wins the election, US is in some trouble, and if Canada re elects Stephen Harper, we are so f-----.

    got rid of school funding for anyone who would want to go back and get a GED or diploma, raised taxes, was in contempt of parliament, and brought about not 1, but 2 recessions in under 10 years. Canada is going to go to s--- if he is re-elected. he brought our surplus into debt. He wants to get rid of the Health act and make Canadas health care province based, and split it up. He also shut down parliament twice. Wants to replace CPP.

    Holy s--- f---ing lies lol

    School funding is mainly a provincial issue

    Contempt of parliament just means the other parties voted against him

    He didn't bring on either recession

    We've balanced the budget a year ahead of schedule

    Health care is a shared responsibility, and making it provinced based only helps incentivize improvements

    "Shutting down parliament" is actually nothing.

    And he's not trying to replace CPP

    He went from "Harper will k--- us if he wins" to "well, all leaders kinda s---."

    Thank God people like him aren't likely to actually vote.

    I really am man -- it's a manufactured, forced narrative largely being pushed by the media. at this stage of the campaign there's an emphasis on drama not substance -- entertainment for the 24 hr news cycle. even these polls are very premature -- too many candidates, not enough serious ppl paying attention... once it's whittled down to 2-4 candidates, if trump is still #1, ill start sweating
