That the Republican party has wasted the last decade, and their present group of candidates are not inspiring, though I feel the same way about the Democratic party candidates.

It's ok to be against some things, but to be against everything with no ideas of your own is worse than the guy doing something you don't like.

If you can't say this is what I am for and thus is what I'm going to do then you are worthless. Reagan was very posative. He stood for something. Like him or hate him no one in this race emulates him while they all try to invoke his name.

If your only bright spot is you are not the other guy you have already lost.

Sanders is for things and stands for things. I admire him for that. But, I'd never vote for him.

Maybe that's the lesson. The folks that actually stand for something get torn down by the leaches.

I thought you hated Illinois republicans?

Frank you really trust a stock market bolstered by the fed throwing billions of imaginary money at the market?

The plates can only be spun for so long, and there is only so many dowels to go around.

I'm for "less" period. Less spending, less debt, less intrusion into our daily lives, etc. The government os not the solution to all our problems, in particular, passing more laws. Two great examples, the war on drugs and the war on poverty. Well intended ideas that turned into self serving government juggernauts that grow and grow and do less and less to solve the problems they were created to solve.

I do agree on Reagan, leadership is a critical function of the POTUS. I didn't agree with everything he said or his DOJ shenanigans, but he knew how to inspire and lead.

Ha! Wasn't that Nancy Reagan's mumbo jumbo? I don't buy into the horoscope thing, though all the Scorpios people I know are very similar, coincidence no doubt.

Actually there were schedule changes based on astrology and who knows when in the second term Nancy took over. Did you know they believed in UFOs too ?

Meh, UFOs should exist, but I'm a skeptic and any intelligent life is likely to avoid our planet. OTOH, believing in horoscopes is not exactly dangerous, but pretty nutty.

Trust? Nope. But it sort of feels similar to betting on sports that may be fixed, or betting on a fixed race at the track...I still have about the same chance picking a winner.

Well, sort of kidding with that analogy, but it seems that there is always a new single thing threatening the market, be it China, Greece, interest rates...no single thing has caused the end of the world I have been promised here since I was a little lurker. Lots of forces in play, and confidence is growing in dribs and drabs, much to the dismay of our membership.

Plus, I am not a day trader, I am not much of a risk taker in my early 60's (mentally about 40) I do get advice...and if it all blows up, everyone is equally screwed.

I wonder what the market graph would look like if you looked at it over the last 100 years or so.
