I used to think like you are talking about here but I no longer do,the division in america is the strongest I've ever saw,use the ideals here at RIU as an example,left refuses to respond to right unless to slander & vice versa,its the same way in schools & the work place.

do you really think a bipartisan government is possible no matter which of these candidates we elect ? partisan politics is only a small part of the problem IMO,I'm seeing corruption at every level across party lines as the biggest obsticale to economic stability .

i have no idea what a trillion dollars is, but i have a pretty good idea of what a "WHITE PRIDE" tattoo splashed across someone's back means.

Yes I do. And only someone who is younger than 30 or is mentally disabled would pose such a question.

OK fair enough,since you believe it possible maybe you could be gracious & share with us a list of bipartisan honest politicans able to fill the office of president,VP,speaker of the house,sec of state,senate,sec of defense,sec of interior,attorney general,sec of homeland security,CIA director ,FBI director ,IRS director,dozens of congressmen & senators,governors & veterans affairs,that's about half the top level federal government.

half the encumbants holding offices I just listed are involved in past or current scandals & all show themselves to be partisans,but we can hope right :lol:

I'm not understanding your point. Why are you dwelling on the past? What are you proposing as an alternative? Are you suggesting Trump or Johnson will save the US political process?

On Jan 9, 2009, the debt was 10.6 trillion. Since then, the CBO and other bipartisan researchers have concluded roughly 4 trillion of that should have been accounted for during the Bush "legacy". The current debt "clock" sits at just below 18 trillion.

18 - 10.6 = 7.4 - 4 ( Give credit where it's due ) = 3.4

3.4 < 1/2 10.6 - Therefore your claim, or rather your meme's claim is false.

Interestingly enough, in Jan 9, 2001, the debt was 5.73 trillion, and when Bush left office, it was 10.63 trillion. He literally doubled the national debt. So much for Republican fiscal policy.

You should consider stop being so stupid. It might help you along in life.

Submitted by Simon Black via SovereignMan.com,

A few days ago, the federal debt of the United States rather quietly and unceremoniously passed the $19.5 trillion mark.

And while that figure may seem absolutely confounding, what’s even more alarming is how rapidly the US government is racking up this debt.

In fact, for the 2016 fiscal year that ends in just ten more days, the US government’s debt growth of $1.36 trillion is on track to be the third biggest annual increase ever.

The only two years in all of US history that posted higher US debt growth were 2009 and 2010– the peak of the financial crisis.



Even more acutely, last month the US federal debt grew by $151.5 billion.

Not counting the financial crisis, and a few anomalous months following a debt ceiling reset, August 2016 was the single biggest expansion of US debt EVER.

In other words, US federal debt is expanding at its fastest rate since the financial crisis, and one of the fastest rates in all of US history.

This isn’t supposed to be happening. We’re in ‘peacetime’. The financial crisis is over. The economy is supposedly growing, and unemployment is supposedly falling.

None of the normal big deficit triggers exists; if you read the mainstream press, the news about the US economy is all rainbows and buttercups.

You’d think they would actually be running a surplus at this point and paying down the debt. Or at a minimum the rate of debt growth would be shrinking.

But no. Despite all of this good economic news, the government is still piling up debt at record levels.



If the debt is growing this quickly in good times, just imagine how dire the debt situation will become once the economy slows down and recession kicks in.
You know what else is expanding? Mah BBBAAAAAALLLLLSSSSSSS!

oh stop,u know full well my point is that the entire administration is corrupt & it has shit to do with political party either,every post I listed has or is involved in a scam or scandal & I pointed that out in rebuttal to your claim a bipartisan gov can be had.

you've yet to explain your conviction & back it up with a list of vetted politicians available for those postings,and be able to Cary out their duty of office in a bipartisan manner.

this isn't " dwelling on the past" its present day reality of complete bipartisan corruption .

edit,BTW you left out Jill Stien,any reason she can't be a caped crusader ?
