I must say, I'm bothered by the fact that you would lump a man who has fought for many issues that the American people care about since the 1960's with a man whose campaign is nothing more than a vanity project.

“Well, just so you understand, I don’t know anything about David Duke,” Mr. Trump said in an interview with CNN. “I don’t know anything about what you’re even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists.”


Mr. Trump’s lack of knowledge of Mr. Duke was surprising because he said as recently as Friday that he did disavow Mr. Duke’s support.

Mr. Trump also expressed his disapproval of Mr. Duke back in 2000 after deciding not to embark on a presidential bid in the Reform Party.

“The Reform Party now includes a Klansman, Mr. Duke, a neo-Nazi, Mr. Buchanan, and a communist, Ms. Fulani,” Mr. Trump said in a statement, referring to Pat Buchanan and Lenora Fulani, the former standard-bearer of the New Alliance Party and an advocate of Marxist-Leninist politics. “This is not company I wish to keep.”

But on Sunday, Mr. Trump insisted that he would not condemn someone who he does not know anything about.

“I don’t know David Duke,” he said. “I don’t believe I have ever met him. I’m pretty sure I didn’t meet him. And I just don’t know anything about him.”

Quoting myself because this got bottom-paged and I think it's a good video and I'm biased and it supports something I like.

Douthat tried essentially the same theme in his op-ed today.

a simple blanket statement that he knows almost nothing about practically everything would save him time going forward

trumo's whining to a crowd of alabama mouthbreathers about how the NYTimes is mean to him

donald, these cretins (we know they're cretins because they came out to listen to him) sign their name with an X. When you say "1st amendment", they think, if they think anything, "religion".

Now he's citing them skyscraper addresses in midtown Manhattan in defense of, or explanation for - ah hell, who'm I kidding, he's not saying anything coherent here

Watching Democratic debate from 1960. Kennedy vs. Humphrey. It's in West Virginia right before the primary. Primaries back then didn't mean much. No binding delegate ramifications or anything.

The two candidates are civil and intelligent and talk in complete sentences and stuff like that.
Teams lie, sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad. They do it to get an advantage while they look at the trade market or just because they can

As I said, I prefer Sanders to Trump. I think he's genuine. He'd be a good neighbor. He'd be slightly less of a disaster as POTUS. But his schemes are absurd. Lots of lovely promises and no way to pay for them. yo could consfiscate all earnings and all property from every robber baron and it wouldn't begin to pay for Bernie's nobody-has-to-work-for-anything promises.

I did a little reading on Tulsi Gabbard (the Congresswoman from that Bernie endorsement video). I think she'd be the perfect running mate for him. She's a young, minority (Samoan and Hindu), female, combat veteran. She's also very pretty, which would play well. Bernie/Tulsi 2016!

LePen the elder backed Trump. I'm excited to see who European hardliners and Trumpoloni will declare war on. We'll finally get that shiny all out war on Islam I guess. Get South East Asia involved too. We'll bomb Malaysia into the stone age I guess.
