  1. How is Bernie an A or A+? Everyone else you listed has done much better. Bernie has one of the shittiest attendance records in the Senate, and only like 7 of the bills he's written have become legislation (two of which were to rename postal offices in Vermont), and few to none of his goals have become legislation so you can't say he's been an effective messenger either. He also folded and endorsed the establishment puppet both times he lost the primary (albeit 16 was rigged against him). I've never got the Bernie hype tbh. Also socialist not showing up to work = lol Also I voted Hillary because I'm worried about what'll happen to me if I didn't (trolling). I agree that she's accomplished more. She's also much more popular. Kamala wasn't even popular prior to her nomination. She almost lost the AG race in a statewide election that saw other Dems win +20% margins. She also laughs like a serial killer.
  2. Different era back then. You can't compare her era to Calhoun's era. The game was reffed different not to mention the pace of play has changed. It was a team game back then, players today just care about individual stats. So many other things he did that don't go on the scoreboard. Calhoun will always be my goat, Harris ain't even his shadow. Harris was VP in an era where the greatest political threat was plumbers, Calhoun's era was actually physical. You could duel and shoot someone no question back then. Try to do that now and you get fouled, probably flagrant. Politics isn't a game played on a stat sheet, it's a game won in the hearts and minds of people. Think about that next time.
  3. Uh, USA has more criminals, so uh, more crime. Checkmate Europoor
  4. And is the campaign more dynamic based on wins and losses? Or is it less of a campaign and more of a sandbox?
  5. Anything lead to that interest in particular or just something you were always into? My mom does the same thing and idk why
  6. I don't think we looked at the same guy yesterday 💀
  7. Argentine Peso is arguably the 2nd most devalued currency behind the Yuan so I doubt it gets worse.
  8. Agree but I actually think the Euro is a good currency. It can't and will never be a global currency, but as a regional currency it has been excellent for Europe on a business and consumer level, in my opinion. But obviously I don't live there like you, but from what I've seen I can't complain.
  9. Thoughts? We see Hungary, Sweden, Italy, and now even the Dutch have elected right-tp-far-right parties. Le Pen edges closer in every French election and even Conor McGregor is rumored to be considering running against the "soft" Irish PM or President or something. Is this a reaction to the 2015 migrant crisis or something else? Is this good, bad, or both? Discuss
  10. Tbf Millei said he's leaving BRICS, getting rid of the Argentine Peso and using the USD, which actually might help the country.
  11. That is correct. This is an old post I bumped to the top again.
  12. Worth mentioning Rosalyn Carter got put on hospice yesterday. I imagine it won't be long now.
  13. I picked influence over personal favorites. 1950s was hard and was between Adenauer and Eisenhower for me.
