She needs to resolve the excessive use of force DA thing

I'm in love.
Great interview. This is what the Democrats needs. Young, bright stars.
No more old people please.
She's 52.
She's next-gen, but not Kander (35) levels of Next-gen

Kamala is 52? Holy shit. I was thinking like 40 at most.
Pigeon, I know you and I disagree a lot about foreign policy, but American atrocities during war and peacetime aren't a conspiracy theory.
The United States drops three bombs an hour to preserve our hegemony over the Middle East. US-backed rebels have massacred hundreds of civilians during the war against Assad. In Yemen, we're blasting the country apart at the Saudi's behest, just to keep Iran from getting a friend in the region. Our blockade and bombardment is now creating famine conditions.
Perhaps worst of all, this violence isn't even effective. Bombarding Middle Eastern populations with munitions does not make them love America. Nor does it scare them into complying with Western domination. Instead, the ongoing American intervention leads to radicalism. American aggression isn't just brutal, it's wholly unnecessary.
Whoa I thought she was in her 40's. Black don't crack!

Any more details on this? Is it something that Republicans can run into the ground in 2020 if she runs, like they did with emails and Benghazi with Hillary?

It'd be an issue in the primary, not the general (I think)
What are we doing now?

I don't think any of the potential candidates are entering the primary as clean as Obama did. especially in this era.

cmon mate.
Baggage matters if you don't have the charisma and authenticity to engender voters into giving you the benefit of the doubt.
Kander is next-next gen. 35 is a bit too young.

Prevents the government from stepping in if a business discriminates against someone.
This Democracy Corps memo is the most blatantly racist thing I've seen out of the left. It's dressed up as "research" but proceeds to completely ignore everything the voters are telling them. https://t.co/4Pei7IsnPY
Hey man white people totally support multiculturalism as long as it includes their right to say nasty things about blacks and Muslims

Yeah, definitely not. Not sure there will ever be a candidate as clean as Obama. I still find it remarkable how there was *nothing* on him.

And he still almost got fucked over by Jeremiah Wright while Trump hires straight up white nationalists.

Cuomo's here today
...but not on good terms. A huge wind storm devastated my area the last few days and he's here to explain the situation and the cleanup.
I wonder if Donny boy will throw us some federal disaster relief.

I rarely read his op-eds, but dang, when did he jump off the Reagan free-market, less government, less regulation bandwagon?

I THOUGHT THE COUNTRY WENT TO HELL AND ITS A TOTAL DISASTER
There are a lot of young prime-aged women and men who haven't come back. The question is are people still going to say the POTUS is predominantly responsible for improved numbers when they're not passing major legislation? Republicans obstructed Obama for years particularly near the end. Nevertheless, Pres. Obama was taking credit for private sector growth and a lot of people were shaking their heads in agreement. Very mystifying to me when you're screaming obstruction to the top of your lungs. In any event, either the GOP helped Obama more than he let on or the economy can get better just by doing virtually nothing.

Motherf**cker... Sean Spicer was just asked about how Trump said the job numbers were fake... He said Trump asked him to quote him like this: "They may have been phony before, but they're very real now."
This is the kind of shit that pisses people off about politics.
Oh yeah and they all had a big laugh about it too. ��

Things have shifted. We're back to Urban v Rural, and the urban economy (with its lack of community social safety nets) is one where the need for government safety nets is obvious.
A good quote/metaphor for this from a review of Cowen's new book:
-------------
We are seeing actual wage growth the past two years in the bottom percentiles in large part because the labor market has tightened - we're near full employment and it's getting very hard for employers to fill spots.
(I would suspect those drop-outs are in rural areas where there literally aren't jobs, like that town in Alabama that got profiled a few years back which had everyone on Disability.)
I got asked for more details and to clarify, it wasn't excessive use of force, it was failure to investigate prosecutorial misconduct. My fault for misremembering!

David Brooks is the conservative Malcolm Gladwell. And he's never been a policy wonk, his only schtick is bemoaning the endless decline of western civilization because we're not "kind" and "tolerant" towards people that hate gays.
The thesis of his column is "Healthcare isn't important to people." Which is just the usual "the status quo was doing just fine until Obama came along" both sides BS. He's clueless.
At least Ross Douthat proposes interesting arguments and has some (relatively) sharp, quirky cultural analysis.

Does this include those who have given up on looking for employment?

The job report was never real but now all of the sudden it Is. Makes sense.

Just remembered that this is the kind of crap conservatives love to point out so they can scream that someone is unpatriotic.
There was totally stuff on him, between Ayers, Alinsky, and Wright. Folks (outside the right wing infosphere) just forget it because Obama was a boss about brushing that stuff off.

Don't fret. It'll be phony again if it starts to share bad news about job growth.
Hahahahahahahahafuckoff.

It depends on if you look to labor force participation instead of employment-population. The latter is useful because many welfare queens who are not working continue to look for work while using unemployment benefits
