The pressure from my neoliberal peers is intense. I'm not sure if it's the same in other parts of the country or if it's a direct result of the convention happening here (polling would suggest that), if different socioeconomic / age groups are experiencing the same, but the social pressure is vicious.

You will be conquered by Stealth and Deception: in the swift advance of a long-planned coup against secular society, to launch an American theocracy, "the Dominionists" are succeeding in their quest for national control and world power" - Kathleen Yurica, founder of the Yurica Report which, like Theocracy Watch , monitors the American religious right writes "Since the writing and posting of my essay, The Despoiling of America in February 2004, there is more and more evidence that not only has a cultural war been launched, but that the plotters are winning it....First the hard right dominionists took over the Southern Baptist Convention with its 16 million members and a fortune in corporate businesses. Then they took over the Republican Party ...they are moving to limit the power of the Supreme Court . Now there is evidence dominionists are trying to take over the U. S. military Praise Allah!
Seriously, watch this and tell me there isn't something seriously wrong with her.
You can't really judge her by that clip, however I certainly do judge her by her flippant and mean spirited words .In the manner of someone's death. Her actions in that snippet does remind me of my mother in her bi-polar era. Somewhat immature, and a bit off her rocker, and dangerous at times.who knows, maybe she'll be a great leader....hahaha.
Check out these pictures of Bill Clinton, high AF, playing with balloons. Watch him guard his precious balloon from a little girl in the clip at the end!
Even my wife said last night that he seems rather corpse-like. It's almost like he has an "on switch" when he starts talking in front of a microphone, though. He's completely zoned out in many videos, going back months; distracted, or semi-conscious, but as soon as its his turn to speak, he "wakes up" and focuses. It kind of reminds me of Robin Williams old bit on Ronald Reagan being a robot.
We are so cynical we don't recognize when politicians exhibit normal human behavior, it was a celebration, no? Bill Clinton has had a quadruple bypass and is 70 years old. So what even if he is high af? These type of criticisms make us look petty. I thought Chelsea's speech was good, was she sincere? Is she a human being? Was Hillary a good mother to her? If so, that may be the best reason to vote for Hillary Clinton.
I posted this clip repeatedly at the Down Underplace.
I got a post juried out because I typed that Hillary Clinton reminded me of Richard Nixon and that she was a psychopath unfit for CIC or POTUS offering this clip as evidence.
That said, Trump is a non-starter for me and I pretty much agree with SLAD.
I can't in good heart vote for Hillary Clinton so probably will not vote for POTUS. I supported Sanders as refreshing.
The two main party candidates angers me and are evidence of a failed political system at best and a sign of some nefarious plot to kill democracy at worst.
But maybe the USA has already moved beyond democracy in practice, maybe many elections are already rigged, and most certainly the voting public's judgement is fickle and poor.
Ahh, you could catch most anyone in unflattering moments, saying stupid things. Not that there aren't perfectly good reasons to not vote for her. Sanders was refreshing, but he had an opportunity to go third party and didn't take it. Who knows how it would have shook out, but it would have been a good start.
We got a black man as President, we are going to get a woman as President. No need for dissent.
