The USA must just be unlucky that they've been forced into a state of virtually perpetual (but unwanted) war for the last 200 odd years.
The last time there was war in America was 1910 Border War. And the century prior was particularly cruel, with the Indian wars etc.
Living in a country decimated by war, with rotting corpses, IEDs, and buildings turned to rubble is not the same as living in a country in relative peace and safety engaged in conflict an ocean away.
That's the image I had in mind.
If America goes to war with China, it is America's own war.
Air raids in LA ...

ISIS dies, then who replaces them? You putting 100,000 troops on the ground to maintain the "peace" or are you letting the vacuum exist and ISIS mk2 takes it's place.
I guess you have to put a strong presence, and to do that The Syrian regime will have to give Kurds de facto autonomy at least, possibly through federalism and turkey will hate that. Syria would be wise to have Kurdish zone between it and Turkey. Chechen forces are occupying Aleppo, and this sort of program will have to be maintained in several areas, at least while the war is in a kind of active phase. There is obviously a thriving global jihadist movement, and once Syria has been secured I'm sure It will focus on somewhere else, possibly Yemen or Central Asia or in many places especially Europe.

Since Procrastinator35 has been back with his videos, I have watched a few and by clicking to other videos on the right I came to a site which then led me to many other sites and I am surprised to see lots of videos which promote the following stories:

The Obamas are getting divorced
Barak is gay
Michelle is transgender (see photo of her dancing on Ellen)
The kids are adopted
Etc Etc

Sheez, so many brain dead people yet still capable of breathing and posting. I must live in a bubble, how did I not know any of these things.

Fake news is alive and well.
No wonder the supermarket impulse-buy magazines are going under. There are now millions of people with iMovie and a YouTube account making up amazing amounts of bullshit for free.

It will be interesting to see what tricks Conservatives can pull out of the bag to discredit her amongst sexists in 2020
this is the women who thinks she a native indian, and shes the only who thinks it
Exhibit A...

I'd imagine the slurs will get way nastier than Pocahontas if Warren runs.

FWIW, I think a Bernie/Warren ticket would be great. She's obviously a lot younger than he is and could take over in 2024 if they got up.

I think the system needs them to run just to see what forces can be unleashed.

Booker would be a ******* disaster, imo. Takes more money than most of the Repugs.

She was promising to enforce no fly in Syria, depending on if that was a core promise or not and how dropping Russian planes went we could already all be in a better place.
As opposed to forcing chinese military off islands? Is trump doing that with discount vouchers to sizzler or a free set of ginzu steak knives?

You mean the super delegates are too dumb to figure out. Or bought off.
If a Warren/Sanders get kept out again by superdelegates then there will be riots

I think Warren with Bernie VP should be a goer, Bernie will make up for Warren being a bit of a bore aside from the odd feisty attacks

And Warren has the party clout, and excellent track record to hopefully stop them from trying to push Biden, or worse, Hillary again.

Also Sanders age becomes less of an issue as VP.

Both too old for 2020 imo
She'll be 70 or so? Not that old really - younger than either Trump or Sanders were for this election. She looks a lot younger. She's in top nick for her age actually. Sanders too is pretty fit for an old bloke, but he'll be nearly 80.

Trump less likely to make it to 2020 than either of them imo. (hopefully I didn't just put the moz on my homies)

Old by us pres standards. This election was unusual in that it was full of old farts

Ill bet my left nut that youth and energy will be the ticket for the dems in 2020. They will want a contrast with trump, whos already aged a decade in just two weeks

That's a worry because I can't think of a single youngish socialist in the Dems with any kind of profile.

Most of "da yoof" in the party have joined post third-way politics of Clinton, and are probably proponents of that failed bullshit.

Not many young Sanders types around.

President Clooney would be a chance too.

Let's be honest, Democrats don't have anyone decent that's not within the dying age bracket

What they're hoping for is that people would think a half dead corpse would still be better than Trump
Well to be fair a completely dead corpse (and not even a human one) would actually be better than Trump. Addition by subtraction.
