As I minority, I will tell you that I trust Sanders far more with social justice than HRC. Also there's nothing bigoted about folks working to make sure women get the same wages as men, or to break the cycle of poverty black folks in C

Thanks, I'm glad we agree. I also agree that lambasting all 47% is a bad idea. I never said that it was good; I just made a statement that a portion of those 47% are horrible people who are emboldened by Trump's demagoguery and wi

It's a legitimate concern that I have that needs to be solved - the fact is that a whole lot of those people who are low-lives have found validation for their perspective with the Trump election. That is a concern for me and my family;

Right, and I didn't say you said that, nor did I say that all 47% of those Americans are xenophobes. I just said that there are enough who are to make living here uncomfortable for us, even though in all other respects we love this cou

I mean, as a (legal) immigrant it's hard to believe that that's not the case, when I've been shouted at in the streets and told to go home to my country. Or when my (American born and bred) wife has been heckled for daring to

I think the question is what it means to be American. To me, it means living and let living, and to accept others no matter who or what they are. To others, it means to be white and Christian.

I didn't realize Toshiba is stopping selling consumer laptops! Such sad news. :( I've exclusively bought Toshiba every since I got my first laptop way back when.

What a delightful read! I'm going to check out the "Epistle of Forgiveness", which apparently has a translation available on Amazon!

What about Brendan Eich and Prop 8? It was acceptable to denounce him then. But supporting Thiel is okay?

I was waiting for the Pixels, but the OnePlus 3 looks awesome for the price! How is the camera on that phone? I remember researching OnePlus 2 a while back, and it was the camera that killed it for me.

It's more likely he's using it as an excuse. Trump was reportedly very critical of Romney releasing his returns (and the subsequent hit Romney took because of his decision to release them).

Congress, of late, seems to care only about sending messages to voters and not about the messy business of creating consistent, meaningful laws. And then we complain about the executive overreaching.

Thinking about the sheer numbers might help imagining the mechanics. 2 million pilgrims crowded into very specific places at or near Makkah that year. For reference, the population of Chicago is 2.7 million.

I'll be interested in whether the let ISIS-sympathizers and KKK-style white supremacists in, in the name of free speech and the right to offend. That should certainly make for an explosive combination.

Do you have any literature you can recommend for when one gets into financial troubles. I don't think I would ever feel comfortable using leverage, but would like to know what I'm up against if I get to medical bankruptcy, for exa
