No
He is a career politician though. DO you deny it?
No, there's nothing inherently wrong with being a career politician
They could. EASILY.
Then why didn't it get overturned when Bush was in office and the Republicans held a majority with a conservative leaning court?

Roe v. Wade will never be overturned. Just look at the backlash from the recent Oklahoma decision. OK congress passed anti-abortion laws and Republican Governor, Mary Fallin vetoed it. If they can't get it passed in OK, how would they overturn it on the federal level?

Why hasn't the court done that yet? We've had republican controlled congress and presidential administrations simultaneously yet they've failed to declare a fetus as a person, so what makes you think a Trump Supreme Court would?
Case would come from state or local
Trump has already put up a list of candidates who are intellectual sympathizers with Jerry Falwell

Ginsburg is probably going to retire next cycle, possibly Kennedy and possibly Breyer, plus Scalia's open seat, so there's a good possibility of two or three judges being replaced within the next presidential administration. But like I've said before, things like Roe v. Wade & Obergefell v. Hodges are pretty safe, if either of those were touched there would be massive public backlash all across the country, and we're already assured that both Clinton or Trump would appoint corporatist judges that would support things like Citizens United and the TPP, so there's really not a whole lot of difference when it comes to the Supreme Court.
Appointments are for life.

Show me where it says in the US Constitution that I have to have an ID to vote, and I'll go along with it.

There's good reason ID requirements aren't in there. It's to keep those who would buy power and influence from using them to create rules and regulations to stifle a citizen's right to vote... just like which is in fact happening left and right around the country.

WTF is it with right wingers who wrap themselves in constitutional rights- and then try to revise the document, anyway? I'll bet you haven't even read the whole thing, or if you have it was back in middle school. That's actually most Americans, so it's a fairly safe bet.
Yes I have read the constitution and the decleration of independence and yes it was a long time ago so I am going to reread both to refresh my memory, but I still think having a state I.d. in your wallet is just a matter of practical sense. Here's a theoretical scenario; you take your dog for a walk in the park. Suddenly you start to feel tightness in your chest and your arm goes numb,then you pass out due to the heart attack you are having. When E.M.S. arrives they find no I.d. stating who you are so they have no way to contact family and since they don't know your name they can't crosscheck your med records to see what your medical history is and what meds you may be allergic to.
Trust me there are many more advantages to having an I.d. than not having one.

No. You are sexist and a bigot.

FUCK YOU.

You are whats wrong with the democratic party.







Would be what I WOULD say if i was a moron.

Sanders is on a whole different level.

Clinton should be in jail. She is the corruption that makes our country crumble from the inside.
Clinton Sucks
But she is better than anything the Republicans have put up in Years
