  1. I may be wrong, but never considered James Baldwin subtle.
  2. Mary wrote that Donald and his first wife were "cheap" with gifts. Underpants only one year. And food gifts with some of better food missing As birthday gifts
  3. Franklin Roosevelt enacted The New Deal which included social security. He was re-elected in a landslide in 1936. I suspect he doing many things right long before the Second World War. Also the economy prosperity during the Eisenhower Administration had nothing to do with wars.
  4. II have mentioned before another student sophomore year in college was reading 'Another Country' because he was constantly propositioned, even with his parents, on vacation in Maine. He wasn't gay, but wanted to know what he was up against. To be fair, he had been a male models. I believe this was in the Fall of 1962 when conversations like this were a bit unusual. He lived with his parents in Brookline, Massachusetts.

    Putin/Trump 2020

    In reality, a political forum is a good way to test one's memory, especially when people have studied history and politcal science in college and/or high school. I have learned a lot!
  6. John McCain? Lisa Murkowski? Bernie Sanders and Tulsi Gabbard?
  7. I doubt Nancy Pelosi believes party labels are "silly." Or Joe Biden, Tulsi Gabbard or Pete Buttigieg.
  8. Why would the Republicans choose a female candidate for president when Donald Trump, Junior is available. Or the male Republican governors of Florida and Texas. Why would Independent voter back Nikki Haley? Look what happened to Tulsi Gabbard, Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren and, four years ago, Hillary Clinton.
  9. Threads evolve over time. I doubt many people set out to hijack a thread. More important, people who just join a forum have the exact same statue as those who have posted for decades.

    Putin/Trump 2020

    Donald Trump has totally screwed up in fighting coronavirus. Alarms are going off throughout the South and Arizona. This country is doing almost as badly as Brazil. Trump totally lacks Biden's empathy. Something Barack Obama also has. In a time of dire emergency who cares who is the better speaker. The country didn't care in late 1963 and early 1964 that Lyndon Johnson was a less effective speaker than John Kennedy.
  11. More freaking space exploration!!
  12. Broadway in summer 1960: With my parents, we saw the original casts of "Take in Along" Jackie Gleason): "Gypsy" (Ethel Merman) "The Sound of Music" (Mary Martin) I thought Mary Martin was going to fly, so very disappointed

    I have mentioned auditing courses at Penn, starting in 2006. Literature courses are occasionally given with "take home" final exams. Not easy because, those exams are quite difficult. One of the courses was Thomas Mann, Herman Hesse, Franz Kafka, no term paper

    Putin/Trump 2020

    We are in 21st century now.
  15. Hey, I thought these recent posts were about him mooning paps in Florida.
  16. CNN: Trump's sister, Marianne, referred to Donald as a "clown" in a conversation with Mary Trump during the 2016 campaign. Marianne believed his campaign was only to get publicity, never thought he would actually win.
  17. Trump celebrated July 6 by attacking Bubba Wallace, the only black NASCAR driver and and Donald almost cried because the Confederacy flag is no longer popular. Could it be that president is sorry he said ninety nine percent of covid victims recover? Of course not. Anything to win re-election. And to take attention away from Mary Trump's book to be published next week.
  18. Huh? He was very upset when Sanders and Gabbard endorsed Biden. People like @tassojunior though.
  19. @tassojunior has been against all Democratic presidential candidates, not named Sanders or Gabbard, from the beginning. And with few boundaries. So here we are again, when he might actually be on target.
  20. Very mentally unstable.
  21. How does Liam survive on the other site. Even started a thread on the organ. Could be he enjoys attention and getting caught What a fraud.
