    I don't understand this. You want Eminem to get political? Why did you reply to my post with that. I don't get it.

    The hypocrisy of democrats calling republicans exclusive is strong.

    a stunningly dumb meme lol, let's take this apart for a moment

    The meme seems to suggest that the GOP are inclusive because they have minorities running, and then Dems aren't inclusive because they don't. In reality the field is just a reflection of what people in the party decided to run and what people didn't. So since there wasn't a black Democrat who ran this time, the GOP is a friendlier party to African Americans? CLEARLY not, and yet that's what this post seems to suggest.

    The GOP are called racist bigots because their rhetoric and positions suggest they're racist bigots. It has nothing to do with the color of the skin of the people running for president. Their frontrunner (who is pushing FORTY PERCENT nationally and on the verge of an early-state sweep unprecedented in recent presidential elections) has suggested that Mexicans are rapists and Muslims shouldn't be allowed to come to America. He wouldn't be doing well if Republicans disagreed with him. This isn't an inclusive party, period.

    Where's the hypocrisy? Democrats are the reason we just elected an African-American, twice. Democrats are on the verge of nominating a woman for the first time. So because the field is tiny and two of the contenders are white guys, they aren't an inclusive party? It's a silly argument that doesn't withstand scrutiny.

    Swizz, that's a joke. The meme is stupid, but so is using Donald Trump as a spokesperson for the GOP to push your argument. He isn't even a conservative and half the s--- he says will never happen.

    The racist republican rhetoric is fabricated bs. Conservatives want to curb hand outs to decrease our national debt, people say we are racist and don't care about minorities. We want to secure our borders so people stop breaking the law, we apparently hate Mexicans. That s--- is so played out and innacurate. If some racist redneck in Alabama supports a republican, whatever, that doesn't mean everyone in the party is a racist. It goes both ways and I don't apologize for my lack of white guilt. If our choice for the next president is between Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump, this country is s--- and it will be a sorry 4 years.

    Hillary is just a flat out unlikable, dishonest person and Bernie's ideas are so far left none of them will ever happen.

    Trump is a PR nightmare for an entire country. I don't even know how that happens.

    You're right, the meme is stupid and doesn't withstand scrutiny. However, GOP has had African-American and female candidates before Obama was elected as well. Just because they didn't win doesn't mean that republicans are exclusive, same can be said for democrats. The real hypocrisy is detailed in my last post.

    I know this isn't the Democrat primary thread, but I can't let this go. Nominating Hillary is sad. She is honestly looking at federal charges and that isn't some made up Fox News talk show bs, it's real and people still want her to lead a nation. The other option being Bernie Sanders, the "democratic socialist". If people really think a majority of his ideas will be passed into law, they are crazy. Just as crazy as thinking Trump has the ability to block people of a specific religion from entering the United States.

    Rand Paul surprised me with these comments. I think it's great he mentioned this though!

    Hardly anyone will recognize it because they have been brainwashed into thinking anyone with an R next to their name is evil.

    Rand Paul is polling @ 4%, Donald Trump who isn't even a real Republican who said Mexicans are rapists, tweeted a factually wrong and racists info graphic from stormfront that painted blacks as white people killing maniacs and ban Muslims from entering the US is polling @ 40%.

    It's because Republicans are racist.

    ^It's weird that Colbert didn't include the abortion and immigration 180°s... anywho, Rand Paul dropped out and Donald Trump formally accused Ted Cruz of electoral fraud in Iowa. Ben Carson called Ted Cruz "Joseph Stalin" as well.

    Jeb Bush spent $5,200.00 per vote in Iowa.

    It's only $150 for him to legally change his name.

    At this point, I have a feeling the final elections will be between Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.

    If that's the case, I'm voting for Trump. Bernie's only appeal is to lazy, whiney millenial college students. The kinds of people who feel they're entitled to "safe spaces" on university campuses.
