California just made a huge positive step in Healthcare

Governor Jerry Brown made California the fourth state in the US on Monday to allow physician assisted dying. Yes, only the fourth, and it's disappointing that the numbers (or the lack of) overshadow the real achievement. Everyone has the right to live, and everyone should have the right to die. Of course life is sacred, but the opponents of this law must not seriously think that California's true intentions are to have a genocide. They simply just want to help those people who have no hope of a cure, and are suffering. That's it, there is no story here, Everyone is allowed to make their decisions about their life and body. If you can go and get an abortion from a professional, you should also be able to go to your doctor to die. They are there to help you and to lessen your pain. In any way possible. Of course we support that background checks must take place, and several doctors (including psychologists) should sign off before you are allowed to die. You sho

HISTORY

On June 7th, 2016, Hillary Rodham Clinton became the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party for the 2016 United States Presidential Election. In the primary process, we supported Senator Bernie Sanders over her, due to his energizing presence and progressive ideas. We believed in his political revolution, but it is now over as it relates to the Presidential campaign. Bernie will still compete in Washington D.C. next week, but most importantly the movement he started will always continue. We will always support his ideals, because we really do need a world that is ran by Bernie's system. The revolution shall continue! For now though, we full-heartedly endorse Hillary Clinton to be the next President of the United States. We need someone who will stand up to ISIS and other global challengers, and someone who will fight for equality and prosperity back at home in America, and throughout the world. She is not perfect. She has a questionable (at best) financial connection

Home State Blues

AP Photo/Politico March 15 will be the most crucial day (of their lives) for both John Kasich and Marco Rubio. They both need to win their home states, to maintain even their slightest chances of becoming the next President of the United States. However, Donald Trump will e challenging them hard - as they surely must be used to it by now. Super Tuesday 3, here we go! Marco Rubio won Puerto Rico lately, and by a huge margin. It's not a lot of delegates, only 23. But still better than nothing. But what will be more important is that it can be a good indicator for Florida. Florida has over a million Puerto Ricans, and Rubio needs every one of them to win. He really counts on the Latino vote to come out and support him, because without it, it's completely impossible for him to win. However, just because you are from Florida, it doesn't mean that you will win. Especially because Florida is Trump's second home. All of the latest polls, and even from months ago, ha

Clinton and Trump's Super Week

Politico Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were the big winners on Super Tuesday. Both the Republican and Democratic frontrunner made their lead stronger, as each won 7 states. It looks like it will be Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump in the November general election. Can anyone stop them still? It's possible, however the likelihood of that happening is decreasing day by day. It looks like America narrowed its choice down. The question now is, who will you support now? Hillary Clinton knew it was going to be a big night for her, but she was still cautious. Why? Because Bernie Sanders is showing no signs of a slow-down. He is still dangerously close to her, but it looks like she is able to keep the lead steadily. However, she needs to work on gaining his voter's support. It is not guaranteed at all, that if he drops out, that they will all just flock behind her. Although Trump has the same problem. Nevertheless, she is in a very good place right now, but still far fro

Clinton takes South Carolina

Politico Hillary Clinton ran her victory lap last night in So uth Carolina. No one expected her to loose there, and she didn't. Her African-American support base showed up, and she won decisively. It was her New Hampshire. But because Bernie wasn't expected to win there, it doesn't really hurt him. However, the size of the win is even beyond the predicted.But it's not like his civil rights record and arrest from the 60's doesn't prove that he too is for the African Americans. They both are. Now we move on to Super Tuesday. That will decide a lot for both the Democrats and Republicans.  The 48 point win though still underscores Sanders' troubles going into March. Clinton now has a strong advantage in the South, and that will give her a lot of delegates. Especially Texas. Sanders may win some of the northern states. But he certainly is in big trouble. Hillary is doing very well with the minorities for some reason. But she can't forget about the W

Nevada is Trump country too

AP Photo/Politico Donald Trump is the next President of the United States. Ooops, that is November 9 headline of Finchley 1959, not today's. But Nevada helped Trump a lot. Trump is now on course to win the Republican nomination. He can still be stopped, but the chances of that are decreasing. But surely, even if he wins among the Republicans, Bernie or Hillary can stop him right? Well, even that is doubtful. Last night Trump proved that he is electable. He can win states all around the country. He won with the young, old, evangelicals and both the highly and less-educated people. But most stunningly, he even won among Hispanics. And by a lot. And this is especially a staggering result, as both Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz have strong hispanic heritages. But even if you add their support, Trump still won. What can stop him now? Marco Rubio came in second, though a lot behind Trump. Rubio always expected to do well here, but since the rise of Trump, no one thought that he woul

Bush makes it 5

Well well well, Who would have thought? Six months ago nobody, but six days ago everybody. Jeb Bush has quit the Republican race too! The former Florida Governor was an early front runner in this race, but became the latest victim to the Governor's curse, and of course Donald Trump. We are sad to see him go, but he had to! Let's be honest. With his departure, only 5 candidates remain in the race, as Jim Gilmore finally quit as well recently, and as the field narrows ahead of the Nevada Caucus. But who will benefit the most? Trump? Rubio? Cruz? Kasich? or Carson? Bush had everything. He had by far the most money in the bank. The most endorsements at the time, and of course the best name recognition. The name recognition which is also bad because his brother is still hated by a lot of people, despite his popularity among most Republicans. But in overall it is a very useful and resourceful tool to have. But he didn't use them at all. Only in his dying days did he use his
