2020 US General Election Thread IV: The Battle Begins

[Rojava Free State]

Bloomberg is apparently 5'8" tall, average for a guy his age.

See what he needs is a bouffant, add a couple of inches that way.

For a white man that's rather short. Average height for white men is 5' 10" to 6' 0", depending on what year you pull data from.

The average for white guys has to be 6 feet. When I'm around them, it seems like 75% of them are taller than I am and I'm 5'9

They say height decreases on average as you head south from Norway to the Mediterranean

Check out Gabriel Matzneff. Funny how so many people like him are always involved in those sorts of behaviors, eh?

Which has what to do with the topic?

Nothing. He just likes posting nonsequiturs.

The average height for non-Hispanic white American males is 177cm, 5'9.5".

I'm 5'7" and I'd say I'm way below average for a white male. 5'8" is not much taller.

And you like putting your oar in where it doesn't belong.

You haven't been around many white men then.

So is there going to be any polling of Nevada or

Don't need it

Who usually funds the main polling options,
Do they have a public schedule ?
What do they get funding from ?

These are all important questions I think...

[The JELLEAIN Republic]

No...I just removed Yang from the list resetting the poll.

No Sorting Hat?!

Easy.
Get an enclosed grid,
Get chicken,
Put grid on floor.
Feed chicken.
Put chicken in grid.
See where it poops.

That is your random number generator that you can use.
And don’t worry, it’s government approved.
It’s how they decided split elections in Iowa (I heard here).

Well, I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but the powerful Culinary Union in Nevada is being incredibly myopic about M4A and refusing to endorse a candidate: https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/13/politics/culinary-union-nevada-democratic-caucuses/index.html

You'd think that with healthcare dealt with on a national level, the union could use all that money on things like pensions or at least pension supplements for some of their workers.

Sounds like a shit union. One of the biggest benefits of public healthcare to workers is stopping employers from using employer-provided healthcare as leverage.

That's what my family's old union, the Boilermakers, always thought. Even when they're the ones providing healthcare to their workers, they'd gladly give it up if it meant that everyone had it. And, as I said, all the money they'd make on premiums could go to pension contributions instead.

Well, Bernie Supporters are also treating the Union like absolute shit because fuck the whole message of our campaign I guess, so I'm not too surprised they wouldn't want Bernie since Bernie has a lot of supporters as bad as Trump supporters.

Shit unions that don't take opportunities to help their members need to be pressured into reforming.

Labour unionism is good. Potentially self-serving union management is not.

There's pressuring them and then there's what Bernie supporters have been doing.

In places like Norway and Canada, you get universal healthcare and pension.

Oh, absolutely, but we're not at that point yet. Americans have been too far right for too long, hence being devoid of all the things that make civilised nations civilised.

I'm sure some dicks moves went down but they were already being critical beforehand.
They complained about it as they should but they haven't listed as an influence.

He's not an average white man, he's an old white man. It makes a difference.

The DNC picks media organizations to "certify" and those media organizations then pay pollsters to actually do the polls. Who runs the polls themselves is up to the media organizations.

What doesn't help is some people is exaggerating and misrepresenting shit as worse than it is.
I saw dumb Warren jokes and using an obscure but public interview got twisted into the premier example of toxicity and doxxing respectfully.

I blame twitter it's all too easy to inadvertently harass someone and/or warp people's comments into something worse than it is.
