Thanks for the SCOTUS commission notes. They are very helpful and I haven't had time to dig in myself. Personally, I'm a fan of the 18 year term limits.

Eh, its pretty much a lost cause at this point. Either things will correct themselves in a generation or so or we won't survive until then. Personally after watching this country deem my life and the lives of millions of other immuno-compromised people as worthless I say let it burn. We are only getting dumber, literally.

Great explanation of Supreme Court alternatives. Disappointment that you would choose Stacey Abrams over Perdue simply because he favors investigating credible allegations of voting irregularities.

I never said I'd vote for Stacey. I only said that I wouldn't vote for Perdue, even if she opposed him.

Candidates need to earn my vote. If neither candidate earns my vote in a general election then neither candidate receives my vote on Election Day.

Your prerogative.

That's only slightly better. I'm not a Trumpaholic, but I am convinced the most serious attempt ever to undo a lawful election is the collusion between the Hillary campaign, the Obama administration, the Congressional democrats, the media and a number of Republican Never-Trumps to neuter Trump's authority and remove him from office. I'm tired of all the BS about character. Does anyone really believe the current administration is a model of integrity? What we have is no integrity and no competence.

I would be perfectly happy with Brian Kemp as Governor. But if the contest were between Perdue and Stacey Abrams or anyone having politics even remotely like hers, I would do everything I could to make sure Perdue wins.

'cause principles don't matter to you, only the power.

Just show me how the present administration is more principled.

They never tried to throw out election results and launch a coup.

Biden was VP in an administration that helped create a false narrative in order to have a President removed from office. That was a lot closer to a coup than anything that happened at the Capitol riot.

He and his appointees are also mismanaging the USA.
