This election...

Clinton campaign blasts Cathliocs, in extremely biased emails, provokes an outcry from Cathliocs.

Trump campaign deals with sexual assault allegations, provokes an outcry as well.


As a Catholic, I think would have some serious moral weight on my mind if I cast a vote for either of them.

That may just be me, though.

Clinton was inevitable. She had far too much power and influence and a system rigged to work for her. No Democrat save perhaps Biden or Michelle could have stopped her. How Trump beat the best Republican field in decades though is a mystery.

I don't know about that, because what we know now compared to what we knew then suggests that Trump would say something outlandish to just pull the attention back onto himself. I simply do not see any possibility of the Republican candidates trumping Trump, not even Marco Rubio. I think Rubio would have lasted much longer, may have even come into second place, but I believe that Trump still would have won.

Clinton's foreign policy is just as dangerous as Trump's, I do not think that surrounding China with missile defences will make China very happy. It might even provoke another Formosa crisis.

I am much more worried about China, an invasion of Taiwan might actually happen. North Korea might get emboldened/desperate. There are so many ways it could go wrong.

I'm surprised that nobody is talking about her insistence on this, being that it's a direct affront to Russian actions in Syria.

I've yet to decide what Schlang's agenda will be. Probably something a bit out there, to get into the headlines. Like banning Chinese ships from Micronesian waters.

Are you purposefully trying to make the next President's job (likely either Reed or Carrollton) difficult? :p

No, Schlang is trying to gain some political credibility(or what he believes to be credibility) for a 2020 or 2024 run. Read his bio to see why he would do such a thing.

Either way, it's a sure fire way to piss off the Chinese.

What's Schlang's opinion on Garestaer?

Schlang probably hates him simply out of envy for the office of Sec State.

Though likely his apathetic unless he were to get directly in the way of what Schlang believes to be his political trajectory to the presidency.

I'm going to have Schlang meet with every candidate, to try and scrape up a cabinet position.

If that doesn't work, I'm going to have Schlang visit TNS and MSNBC to get his own media show, as he had tried in 2007.

And if that doesn't work, he will run for governor of NJ in 2017.
