Re: SUPERTHREAD: 2020 United States Elections
Really, the only thing I want in a VP right now is someone who knows how to run a country in a competent way.

Re: SUPERTHREAD: 2020 United States Elections
I get that the old, black, female voters are the 'base' of the Democratic party. But the dems better be careful. Biden is the black female choice, his sweep of the black vote in the southern states in the primary is why he is the candidate. Pushing to get the VP as their choice as well will alienate...

Re: Translating Non-standard modern ships to Sci Fi.
Honestly, LHS, LST's, and other brown navy ships are more like what you'd see. Granted, I'd see more a submarine as an equivalent, but brown water navy ships like Marine landers or mini carriers close to actual models of space ships. You've have, at the very least, a combination of ship born navy an...

Yeah, not to pile on, but you can be a bad husband and/or shitty person and cheat on your spouse, and still be a Feminist and/or supporter of equal rights. Not saying it makes him a great man, kind of makes him a little sleazy, but the two are not mutually exclusive.

Re: SUPERTHREAD: 2020 United States Elections
It's an attention whore move. I'm not even close to worried about it. At the very least, a majority of American's are tired of having the country run by people who have no idea how to, or lack the want to do so.

Andrew Johnson would be like Biden picking Paul Ryan. Johnson was an appeasement pick. He also got impeached.
I hope Biden can do better than that.

Re: SUPERTHREAD: 2020 United States Elections
Who every it is, must be competent to take over the government when he steps down in two years or so related to dementia or some other health issue. This is a huge VP pick, not for the actual election, but they will probably have to take over the government, let alone be set up as incumbent for 2024.

Biden straight up can't run in 2024 if he wins 2020. The man is a shadow of himself now, just physically let alone politically. That is why the VP is the important choice here.

The clones served multiple purposes. Yes, they were a Jedi trap. But in multiple ways, just like the actual war. The Clone Army was disposable. No families, loved ones, kids back on Coruscant. No powerful Senators in their families. If thousands got wiped out, more were made. No emotional connectio...
