Additionally, even if all the Stein voters had voted for Clinton (or vice versa), Trump still would have won. Neither of our votes ended up mattering in the end.
Actually, that's not true. Stein had more votes than Trump's margin of victory in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.

Why?
A vote for the Green Party presidential candidate is a vote trashed. Such voters often cite 'purity' as their justification for throwing their vote away. He's not targeting the Green platform in any way, though he may well disagree with it. But these two comments seem consistent to me for his argument for voting pragmatically rather than idealistically.
You don't see how Savage is doing the same thing of ostracizing people who aren't in his camp?
You are making a pretty giant leap to conclude that a Green vote is a trash vote. By that logic, can't I say that a vote for Clinton was a trash vote because she didn't win?
And if you are truly a practical voter, then shouldn't all the practical liberals join the "pure" voters on the left as that's the best chance to win? That's what being practical means, right?
Even if all the voters that preferred the Green candidate to the Republican candidate voted for the Green candidate, they still wouldn't win. I'm pretty far left and I probably wouldn't vote for Jill Stein over someone like Romney.

I'd rather take the sociology of crime class. I'd probably rather teach the entrepreneurship course if most of the material already exists as it'd probably be a lot less than work than if you had to create your own material from scratch.

Who in America worships government?

He can't fire Mueller, right? He has to hire a new AG to get rid of Mueller?
He can't fire Mueller but I believe whoever takes over as acting AG can.

81% of America lives in urban or suburban settings. We are not a rural folk, and we need to stop pretending to be. Gerrymandering has artificially controlled how people get elected, which in turn affects our laws.
Rural America is a huge place. There just aren't a lot of people living there.
The democrats need to focus on suburban voters more so than rural voters. Suburban voters (which Trump won) are more likely to swing than rural voters and they comprise nearly half of the total population.

I believe both solutions should work. The first solution would only require temporarily disabling EFI boot sources to install windows and then reenabling it after it is installed so the fact that it uses UEFI shouldn't be an issue. If it were me, I'd probably try that solution first since it would preserve your files.

You might try running the system file checker utility to try and repair any corrupted or missing boot files if you haven't yet. Here are instructions on how to do that from a recovery cd. I don't have any ideas on how to fix the shrink size error you are receiving though.

Theresa May will likely stay on as PM, but her position has been considerably compromised.
If they weren't in the process of negotiating Brexit, I'd just about guarantee that she'd be gone by now. However, holding a leadership election at the same time that Brexit negotiations are beginning is not a good position to be in.

Quick question.... how do people find old tweets like that?
I normally just use google. But there also is a searchable archive.

And at the recommendation of Sessions who had said he wouldn't play in this sand box.
Also at the recommendation of the Deputy AG who has been on the job for about two weeks...

I want Tammy Duckworth but she wasn't born in the U.S. She's not technically ineligible but it would be brought up.
It was brought up for Cruz but didn't really seem to hurt him.

One of my problems with all these candidates is that the discussion is about them and their personality traits. But what policies do they support?Ok, so many of us feel that the 2020 election can't get here soon enough. It is never to early to start speculation.
This article throws out the same of California Sen. Kamala Harris. Could she be the savior of the Dem party - a new generation, a female and daughter of immigrants from Jamaica and India.
She is making all of the early moves to get noticed while politically denying any interest (sure sign she is interested in DC speak).

Vito Chiesa, a registered Republican who chairs the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors in California, said he tried to get a meeting with Harris in Washington.
“She’s in such demand,” he said. “She’s kind of a chosen one.”
Harris is the charismatic daughter of immigrants from Jamaica and India. Obama called her brilliant and “by far the best looking attorney general in the country” (he later apologized for what was deemed a sexist remark). She seemingly has the ingredients to energize the Democratic base, and her next tasks if she runs are centered in two places: Washington and the rest of America.

Unfortunately, personality seems to be more important than policy when it comes to electability.

Dems Rebuild

I believe these are the official results from the Pennsylvania Department of State and they show that she would have won Pennsylvania with Stein's votes. The NY times results match those results and were more recently updated than Politico's results.
