I'm not sure what this photo is trying to tell me. That physical looks should be the leading indicator of competence?
Would you, hypothetically speaking, also pick RFK over Stephen Hawking as head of NASA just because he's seen Interstellar once?
"Not only the fact that this is someone who is injecting themselves with foreign and unnatural hormones and substances, Rachel Levine is obese," Gaines said. "Why are you our Assistant Secretary for Health, when you're quite literally overweight? Are you sure I should be listening to you, on anything?" — Riley Gaines, on Joe Rogan, March 8, 2024.
According to many studies, America is in last place for health. About 60% of Americans suffer from at least one chronic disease. Bobby Kennedy Jr. wants "measurable impacts" toward ending chronic disease within two years. We might as well give him a chance because it's only getting worse under the present leadership.
The hypothetically worded question does not apply to this discussion.
And what exactly might these different requirements be?
I also understand you're saying that the United States would gladly be adopting the same policies as Norway, if only they could, yes?
And you're simultaneously saying that the United States would never adopt the same policies as Norway, because Americans don't want that?
BTW, how do you think that a government can work at all without any redistribution of wealth? Or for that matter, how can there be any capitalism without redistribution of wealth?
I understand you're trying to imply that Norway just as racist as the US.
I will concede that point as soon as you show me a current-century example where a Norwegian politician has asserted that immigrants are poisoning the blood of the country.
Otherwise it's a nothingburger. Free societies have freedom of speech, and some members will inevitably use that freedom to malign minorities.
But it's a difference whether such calumny comes from some backwater crackpots, or whether it comes from the (future) head of state. Like in the US.

Try to think of who would be the worst possible picks for cabinet positions, and it seems all you have to do is look at who Trump picked to get your answers.
The United States economy is based on capitalism. The wealth redistribution that social democracies have does not apply to America as it exists today or in the past. The U.S.A. is currently the most desirable place to relocate to.
I have no idea how racist Norway is or isn't. I only know what I see online and whether or not it is true, is beyond my ability to determine.
The election of Donald J. Trump over Kamala Harris was won by both electoral and popular votes. The Democrats are in bad shape right now, and if they do not drop the WOKE and far-left policies and support moderate ones, they will continue to lose support.
There will be legal retaliation for what was done to Trump by various government offices and prosecutors. Special Prosecutor Jack Smith is dropping the federal case, as it is no longer applicable, but there will be investigations that he'll be summoned to respond to at the very least. New York Attorney General Letitia James is damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. IMHO, she should back down now because her day is coming, and if she continues to use lawfare against Trump, it will make it worse for her. I think that she could be tried for criminal charges based on what she did to Trump in court. In her wildest dreams, she probably never thought she might someday be facing prison for her schemes. She actually believed that she could take his property away, stop him from running, and more. I could have told her this would be impossible with a man like Donald Trump. She's not very bright, lol.

Harris and Walz's ass is grass and the intelligent American voters are the lawnmower. Back to common sense and listening to "We the People."
Donald Trump has filed a 10 billion dollar lawsuit against CBS for election interference, alleging that they edited an interview with Kamala Harris that was broadcast on Oct. 7 on 60 Minutes. The 19-page brief also accuses CBS of carrying out other ways of getting Kamala Harris elected and "partisan and unlawful acts of voter interference through malicious, deceptive and substantial news distortion."
He has also filed lawsuits against the New York Times, Penguin Random House, and the Daily Beast.

Bernie Sanders, a Progressive Democrat, has praised President Trump and said he wants to work with him to create a ceiling on credit card interest rates, which Trump has said he would like to do.

Well, Bernie doesn't really like Trump even if there might be the very rare thing he might agree with him on.
Sanders rips Trump: 'Is this the kind of human being that we want as president?'
Sanders blasted the Democratic Party. He'll never become a Republican, like some other Democrats have, but he knows it's over for his party unless things change.
I'm sure that Bernie resents the fact that no primary was held and that the people did not choose Harris to run.
Trump has also done well by appointing RFK, Jr. as Secretary of HHS. NYC Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat who is a proponent of plant-based diets, is a fan of RFK, Jr.
Adams said it was wrong for Trump and his supporters to be referred to as Nazis by the media and Democrats, especially in NYC, where there were Jewish people who attended his MSG rally.
Bernie Sanders blasts Democratic Party following Kamala Harris loss
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders issued a scathing statement on what he called the Democratic Party's "disastrous" campaign following Kamala Harris' loss.

Appointing someone who is anti-vax and embraces junk science is the last person you would want in that position. So, it figures someone as demented as Trump would do just that.
RFK Jr. is against the general public being used for experiments by the medical industry with new vaccines that have not been sufficiently tested for safety and effectiveness. Many people were pressured and compelled to take COVID-19 vaccinations by their employers, the military, schools, hospitals, nursing homes, etc. Kennedy's position is not "anti-vax."

You forgot to add context. This was said in 2019 when this Russian tool and Assad sympathizer endorsed Bernie for president. Now she's a MAGA Trumpist, which is more in line with what she really is. I find it odd how one can go from being a Bernie Bro to a full-blown Trumper. It makes no sense, economically speaking especially. It leads me to believe she's just a grifter and a liar.
Remember when Hilary called her a Russian asset, and everyone laughed? Clinton knew something we didn't.
Hi, friend!
This image and your comment made me laugh. Thank you for that! I hope you are doing well.
To be fair, RFK does look a lot like Hide the pain Harold here.
Kiss the ring, eat the Big Mac — I guess?

Biden has permitted Ukraine to fire US-made long-range missiles deep into Russia. This is a sign that Biden has totally lost his mind. Hopefully, Trump has advised Zelensky to ignore this lunatic and wait until he (Trump) is in office.

You're diving into a deep and complex topic—perhaps a bit removed from the focus on presidential elections.
When I was younger and less thoughtful (though still foolish), I used to be mildly critical of the United States and the challenges faced by African Americans. But over time, I've come to see things differently.
@Rainer, let's set aside the issue of skin color for a moment and instead focus on culture in its broadest sense. This includes not just traditions and practices but also religion and how it is interpreted.
For example, which European country experienced the highest number of illegal explosions in the past two years? It wasn't a conservative nation but liberal Sweden—your next-door neighbor.
Now consider the societal dynamics in France. It seems that North African and Arabic communities are developing in ways that differ significantly from the broader French society. This pattern repeats across Europe.
I'm not suggesting you should harbor animosity toward anyone—quite the opposite. My point is to encourage you to look beyond appearances and examine cultures and how they are evolving.
That said, I recognize there's a risk of derailing this conversation and veering off-topic, which could take away from an otherwise engaging discussion.
I imagine Zelensky's generals are planning to strategically target Russian assets using American long-range missiles and French or UK-supplied Storm Shadows.
Why wouldn't Zelensky take this approach? Ukraine is continuously under attack from Russian long-range missiles, glide missiles, and other weapons. Furthermore, Russia is actively targeting civilian infrastructure, including kindergartens and hospitals.
One possible target could be specific power substations that supply electricity to military infrastructure. However, hitting these substations might also cut power to civilian areas.
Perhaps if Russian civilians begin to feel the effects of the war directly, it could create internal pressure on Putin's regime.
But who knows? As Zelensky said, "The missiles will speak for themselves."
Biden will not allow Ukraine to engage in peace negotiations with Russia. Do you think that this is a good way to handle the conflict?

It's not a conflict; it's a military invasion!
Imagine this: What would you do if a gang of Venezuelans invaded your home, killing and assaulting your loved ones?
Now consider this: What if a friend from another part of town offered you the means to fight back? Would you take it? Or would you negotiate, offering the invaders part of your house in exchange for a promise to behave—for now?
If you understand the metaphor, give this a like.
The problem is that the friend either does not want to or does not have the means to help the gang victim indefinitely, especially when other friends who are even closer in proximity are not providing as much support.
The gang victim is unlikely to succeed without outside help. I do not have the answer, but the victim should at least consider some form of negotiation to stop the assaults. Alternatively, the friend could step in and negotiate with the gang on their behalf.
