It seems like someone should be eligible for all states or no states when it comes to this question. But a federal court, not only congress, should have authority to convict on these charges and thereby rule the candidate ineligible.

In the US parties are large coalitions of a lot of different groups an interests and not all of them mesh well together. This is true of the Republican Party and the Democrat Party. To write off the divergence as being explained by upset, uneducated young males who spend a lot of time online seems naive. The population of such males is small and they are an even smaller percentage of the electorate. They might make the difference in a tight election but they do not explain the significant divergence in party association between males and females. Plus the divergence on gender between left and right is not limited to the United States. It is a phenomenon found in many other countries. So there’s a lot more to it than a small demographic in a single nation.

Or maybe the divergence of male/female voting has nothing to do with suffrage. Maybe women value social safety nets offered by Democrats or maybe they value the Democrat foreign policy or maybe they just find Donald Trump more repulsive than do men. I can think of a lot of reasons that could explain the divergence that have nothing to do with someone (who, I don’t know) wanting to repeal a woman’s right to vote.

Most companies selling on Amazon are contractually prohibited to sell for less elsewhere, even from their own website.

Do you have evidence of a conspiracy to revoke womens’ right to vote?

According to the recent Financial Times article, it isn’t just the US. This is a global phenomenon so it is more than abortion.

That doesn’t explain gender divergence.

Are you saying that abortion has kept the black populating artificially low? And that black Americans could have represented a much larger portion of the electorate?

Give it a generation and Hispanics will be considered white. It’ll happen just as it happened to the Irish and Italians and Eastern Europeans.

The threshold is the same as a constitutional amendment because it would take a constitutional amendment to make happen.

With unlock I didn’t even know there was an arms race. Seamless performance the whole time!

It is government’s job to make sure international trade is done according to some basic rules, including labor and environment. Business’ only metric is profits.

China pollutes so much because George HW Bush and Bill Clinton pushed American jobs to China so CEOs could make bank on huge profits on cheap labor, unsafe work places, and near zero environmental regulation that was impossible in the United States. We built China by disregarding worker rights and the environment and we are paying for it dearly.

If Texas wasn’t killing people with razor wire in a river, I might be willing to consider the argument they have a right to enforce federal immigration laws inside their borders. They may have the correct legal argument but lack the moral high ground.

The debates will be hosted at Serenity Springs nursing home and will be sponsored by AARP and Geritol. Complimentary hearing aids and adult diapers will be provided to select audience members and the candidates themselves.

I use an app on Android called stealth to view Reddit but I cannot vote or comment. I’d like to see Lemmy/kbin grow enough that the niche communities move here.

Fewer parties might mean less chaos in Italian politics.

I thought maybe there would be a federal law that would regulate interstate phone communication recording.
