My dad's family were wetbacks. They swam across the St. Lawrence seaway in the twenties, from Sou Saint Marie, to take jobs away from the natives.
They were Irish, go figger.

How did I not know about poutine?

My grandmother thought that saying "eh" was a complete sentence. The meaning to be derived from the tone of her voice.

I know exactly what she meant.

As to moving to Canada, I myself may retire in Vancouver..
You would move to that socialist country that has universal health care, taxes at a higher rate that the States, has many more socialist-type programs than the U.S., etc.! :eek:

BTW, I'm gonna be there in two days for a mini-vacation, and my wife and I almost moved there in the early '70's.

I hope the USA has a huge economic boom under Trump, becomes the most prosperous land ever and then he builds a wall on the Canadian border and doesn't let you back in. :D
Yes, I will be so excited to return to a ridiculously high violent crime rate, spiking levels of public bigotry, anger and hatred, spreading poverty, a decaying infrastructure, lack of social services, lack of universal healthcare, slave wages, perpetual war, being surrounded by some of the dumbest and meanest people on the planet who deluded enough to think they're better than everyone, etc.

Yes...I'll be waiting to hop the border and live under the regime of a racist, sexist, classist pathological narcissist who lives a lifestyle that is worlds removed from the average American, has no real ideas and is relying on stoking the fires of the worst and most dangerous aspects of the American psyche to gain political power. So much fun.

(Hint: Stay in the UK.)

We are seeing record turnout by and for Republicans - it is all because of Trump.
This has been a frequent refrain from conservatives for many years. Basically exclaiming like Bill O'Reilly, "Woo Hooo! We're winning! That makes us right!".

Because they know Trump is going to bring an economic recovery and a booming ecunomy and jobs. So they want to be on the team to try and get some of the credit.
Sorry, but the recovery from the Bush recession is well underway. Has been for years. But you're partly correct. Like Romney who wanted to ride the coattails of Obama's recovery in 2012, making promises of job rate and income increases that were already slated to occur via Obama's actions (and have occurred without a conservative in the WH, thank you very much), the current candidates all want credit for the current ongoing economic recovery. Trump's got nothing to do with it.

However, none should be surprised that actually Trump will turn to the brightest leaders in the private and business sectors and not just politicians. So the seats are limited, and many politicians will be disappointed. As for Romney, he has no chance.
No. Nobody will be suprised when another GOPer places billionaire industrial capitalists in positions of power over the regulation of their own corporate interests.
Now, can you say "Conflict of interest"?

Calling Carson stupid or a moron can only color the educational failures of someone calling the kettle black. And speaking of black, calling Carson a racist is like some of those Catholic haters calling Mother Teresa a bigot, and I am not a Catholic, I am a Hindu, but neither are a racist.
Are you familiar with the term "Uncle Tom"?
As to his intelligence.....here is a good article. http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-rise-of-ben-carson
Please also consider these viewpoints and quotes of his. http://www.politico.com/story/2015/10/ben-carson-controversial-quotes-214614

Over equivalent time frames of the current regime, Reagan grew real per capita GDP 106% faster than Obama. By this time in his presidency, Reagan's performance on real per capita disposable personal income was 157% better than Obama's.

The only economic growth in this country over the past 8 years has been from Federal deficit spending.
just some food for thought.

Yes, it sounds mostly positive.
Bear in mind that this conspiracy theorist is running against another conspiracy theorist (Hillary).
Given a choice between the 2, I'd pick the lunatic you dislike.
Hillary believes things like this:
"In another published commentary, Root speculated that President Obama attended Columbia University as a foreign exchange student, citing his "gut instinct" as evidence, and that President Obama was indoctrinated into Marxism while attending Columbia. Root was specifically referring to the fact that Obama's childhood years spent with his mother in Indonesia. In response to Senator Harry Reid's speculation about Mitt Romney's tax returns, Root offered speculation on Obama's college records.[23][24][25]
After being audited by the Internal Revenue Service, Root wrote a column in May 2015 calling the audit "a political conspiracy coordinated by leading Democrats to either destroy me, bankrupt me, or silence me."[26]

In a Twitter post reacting to the Supreme Court's upholding of Obamacare, Root said he believed that Chief Justice John Roberts is also being "blackmailed or intimidated," which he added is "like John Boehner"[27][28]

During the Ebola epidemic, Root said that President Obama must be impeached "before he kills us all" with terrorists who have the Ebola virus.[29][30] Root accused the Democratic Party of massive voter fraud, saying President Obama only won reelection because “Democratic voters across this country are voting four times, five times, 10 times each for the Democrats.”[31] Root wrote a column that said Obama was using the Ferguson protests as part of "his plan to destroy this country."[32]"

I don't like Hilary at all, but seriously?

Hey Rev,
One must remember if one is not a liberal or progressive one must be a lunatic.
