Just because he doesn't know what (or where) Aleppo is, doesn't mean he isn't a better choice than dopey or dumbass.

I'd be willing to wager the majority of Americans had no idea, either. Unless they recently saw it or heard it on the news... or have been to Syria.

One slip-up shouldn't mean that much in a race filled with two candidates that can't tell their a-holes from a hole in the ground. And both would probably lie about it anyway. ram27bat

I'd be more worried about how he feels about "undocumented" ILLEGAL ALIENS.

It's one thing to lean on a foreign policy that's largely 'non-interventionist'....which, in itself, is a tough enough sell to a lot of folks skeered of ISIS and other 'groups. It's very much another to ask for your vote to be next leader of the most powerful nation in the world while admitting that you really don't GAF about world news, current events or the hottest of the world's hot spots.

I heard trump has a deadly Muslim seeking laser beam under his toupee but he doesn't want to spill the beans until he is elected so he can take them by surprise.

When you can't count on the majority of Americans ( to include our P0tuS ) to know all 50 ( or was it 57) states and their capitols, I don't know why they'd concern themselves with Aleppo...

I agree, Drafter. I still think that 'validating the idea of a 3rd party' might be a good enough reason still....not like he was going to win before this gaffe.

Similar to Shawn and Julian's comments.....If the best the D's and R's could come up with was Trump v Clinton, I spose I shouldn't have expected much from the 'other' parties...maybe its true that 99% of those in the pool that we'd consider 'wise enough' to be president are wise enough not to run....we all just need to lower our expectations so as not to be disappointed

If we could get a candidate who would commit to NOT giving a damn dime of aid to any other country (friend or foe) until we balance our own budget, I'd vote for them.

I despise Hillary. I was really trying to foster my support for Trump, even though I dislike him, too... but I just can't. He's a f'ing idiot.

He's making an effort... my only hope is he surrounds himself with people who know what they're doing.. including Generals who've been told to STFU by our current administration... Mellow

Johnson is gaining in the polls, so now the media has to jump on every mistake and blow it up, or put words in his mouth during interviews.


That being said, I'm not excited about Gary at all. Bob Barr was the worst candidate the LP ever nominated, and Gary is only slightly better. And Weld is awful. I'm still trying to figure out how he got the VP nomination. Somebody probably owed him a favor.

What's even more pathetic is that Johnson really was the best of the LP candidates.

Johnson/Weld is far from perfect, but given the four options they will be my choice.

Don't get me started on this. It seems we can write a check, or send a pallet of cash, overseas at the blink of an eye, but we can't provide assistance to taxpayers who have essentially lost everything.
