Old Mittens?

I would vote for zombie Kennedy or zombie Reagan before any of the current candidates.

The last few elections seemed to be more about who I disliked the least rather than who I liked the most. Not sure if it's them or me, but it sucks.

Who?

As far as Trump, I can at least appreciate the fact that he doesn't pretend to be the consummate politician. The honesty is refreshing.

Yes I was there , and of course in the movie they shoot the best looking spots of Bruge but need to say in person it looks good also .
You know that Belgium is as country really old and so there are lots of historic places also from BC ( before christ )
Here some pics from Bruge actually written "Brugge" over here => https://www.google.be/search?hl=nl&s...62.HpsEon0mcF4
But the town where I live is the oldest town of Belgium even the Romans were here to battle with Ambiorix .
Here you can see remainders of the old Roman civilisation , but before we were hit several times by the Germans and the Franken that's why you can see remaines of the old Roman city defense walls and shooting towers dating from 15 BC all over my place .
But one thing is/was for sure "Ambiorix" was the man because he kicked lots of Roman asses !
Here my home town => https://www.google.be/search?q=hoe+o...n+van+tongeren
And here => https://www.google.be/search?q=hoe+o...ngeren&imgrc=_

Here is the man who killed 3 Roman legions under Ceasar , this man was no joke and I still feel his blood in my veins ...
I present to you "Ambiorix"

I often find it fascinating how others around the world perceive our politicians...

A man like that with that amount of capital can never been honest ( From my life experience )
Most people that swim in bucks are never refreshing...

If you tune out the din from the extreme right and left, the silence of the moderates is deafening. What to do about it? Is this the new norm and we're just crotchety geezers pining for the "good old days." Who knows.

What I do know is that I despise the primaries, especially because of the pandering to each party's base, the platitudes and sound bites, and the eventual drift to center during the generals, trying to get my vote and pretending they give a shit about something other than themselves.

This is where my vodka bill starts creeping up.

I'm not claiming that everything he's ever said is the truth, but given some of the things that come out of his mouth, they're not exactly intended to curry favor with most people. And I'd much rather have that, because at least then, you know what to expect. 99% of the rest of them just say whatever's popular for the five minutes that they're saying it.

And perceive us. I once told a French person back in 2008 that I wasn't a fan of Obama, only to be met with a nod "because he's black." ...no.
