We currently have 47 Dems to choose from for 2016

I can see now why the Clinton machine is rigging the game.

I wouldn't want to debate James "Titus The Great" Law either. Ronald Satish Emrit would be a tough opponent too with the full backing of the United Emrits Of America Comittee.

Here is the full list of official Presidential candidates: http://www.fec.gov/press/resources/2016presidential_form2pty.shtml

I'm glad to see that Lee Mercer Jr. hasn't given up on his dream (all three).

Bronze Bust of Putin as Roman Emperor to Be Unveiled



The St Petersburg's Cossack community has promised to mark Russia’s anniversary of the allied victory over the Nazis by unveiling a bronze bust of Russian president Vladimir Putin depicted as a Roman emperor.

Andrey Polyakov, the leader of the St Petersburg Cossack group Irbis - a popular organisation which stresses the importance of traditional Slavic values and military valor - told local press the planned sculpture will be cast from bronze and installed near the underground station of Parnas in north St Petersburg.

According to Polyakov the idea to honour Putin with a monument arose a year ago when pro-Russian forces, backed by Putin, seized the Crimean peninsula from Ukraine.

“Such a remarkable event in the history of Russia such as the accession of Crimea has to be immortalised,” Polyakov told local news agency Nevskye Novosti yesterday. “I believe that Putin is one of our brightest, positive heads of state we have had in the last hundred years or so. This is a man who is worthy to have a monument in his lifetime.”

All Hail Putin, Restorer of the Realm!



Much more classy than the Bush banana republican inauguration with tomatoes pelting the car. Babyface Putin is better than Bush. And that's not saying much. So it goes...

you do know they can set a floor of support as criteria for participation, right? This never needed a drastic remedy before, but all the sudden it begs for it?

Excuse me, but that's codswallop. nonsense. bullshit.
