"I hope that people will see that we don't have to sit by the sidelines and watch as the two major parties limit their choices to slightly different flavors of the status quo. It is, in fact, possible to join the fray, stand up for principles and offer a real alternative." - Gov. Gary Johnson

Depending on one's interest, it is very debatable whether Trump's policy on immigration works or not. In particular is the building of the wall between Mexico and the US.

This project is not new, in fact it was always a major concern of the government whoever is the sitting president. I remember when Clinton was the president and carried on when Bush took over that this project is of utmost priority. There was billion of dollars allotted to carry on the same intention as Trump is doing today. The difference is, he wants the Mexican government to shoulder the responsibility of which makes me wonder, why should Mexico do that. First of all what benefit would it do for them and second where would they pluck the money to do it?

Anyways, as far as I am concerned, it is to the best interest of our country, the USA to build that wall and properly vet everyone who wishes to come to this country whether through the land borders, ocean and or on air.

Immigration laws are created to protect the interest of any country. But I personally think that it is the burden of the country that wants to control influx of illegal entry. Asking Mexico to take care of this expensive and major responsibility just baffle the hell out of me.

What do you think? What is the success let alone chance of this project to be done?

I have to admit, the President of the Philippines way of treating the President of the United States take a lot of guts if not pure courage.

I was surprised to read about how he swore at him and considering the needs of both countries to be concerned of the same problems like fighting the ISIS, it looks to me it is not a united effort to deal with this issue should he treat him this way.

I am aware he is cleaning up the country of drug dealers and bad elements that seems to slowly destroy the Filipino lives now and the future.

Philippines is sovereign and independent and therefore has the right to do whatever it takes to run it. It is a little bit surprising though, to treat a powerful leader like that specially now that the Philippine's problem of radical muslims is escalating.

My personal opinion is that if this is what it takes to direct his focus in improving and serving for the goods of the majority, I can't question him. However, there has to be a justifiable and legal reasons of doing it and procedure that proves the guilt of these thuds. I know for a fact that illegal drugs is a very serious crime in the world today. Philippines according to record, is one most besotted one with this problems.

The approval of the Filipino people to their president is very high and it does seem to be working for the benefit of the majority.

"World leaders have reacted with anger after North Korea carried out its fifth and reportedly biggest nuclear test."

So does this mean that any country now can test nuclear weapons without regard to our environment ? More importantly how will it impact humanities' future? Anyone?

Which country is next? I'm sure if Korea can do this, the rest of the world can, right?

For some unknown reason huge numbers of people see the EU as cuddly , a bit like the teddy-bear you had as a child, always there when you needed it......... get real

The EU is a project to acquire complete undemocratic federal control of Europe, always has been from day one, the British people were duped into joining it back in the 70's by being told it was a common market. Most of the world's population isn't interested in what the EU is up to as they think it doesn't\won't affect them.....think again

Britain has been a pain in the arse for the EU for decades, vetoing there excesses, soon Britain won't be there anymore to do that, already the EU is forging ahead with plans for an EU army, that will of course be a nuclear power, this will of course mean the collapse of NATO as many NATO members are also EU members. NATO has kept peace in the world since the last war by the principle "You attack any NATO country you attack them all", in addition Trump has said if he's elected, which looks highly likely as Clinton is rumoured to be dying, he will withdraw the support of NATO from countries not spending 2% of GDP on defence, that's most of them, so either way NATO is a dead organisation walking

The EU is controlled not by elected MPs as it appears, they're there to rubber stamp the decisions made by unelected commissioners, a shadier bunch you wouldn't want to meet , but ALL the unelected hierarchy have one thing in common when you look at there backgrounds, they have all either worked for or have connections to Goldman Sachs, the last retired President of the commission has just taken a directorship at yes you guessed it Goldman Sachs. Sachs is bank, It's for others to decide what there interest is in controlling the whole of the Europe, and indeed who's behind it

Hidden from the public by Mrs. Selective Forgetfulness and her campaign organization alike for a week. Honesty in politics. What does it really matter what the meaning of "is" is? anyway. The Donald is ascendant. He may wind up facing vapid Joe VP. Keep watching. Tootles. Aa.

I knew it all along. When she disappeared in public for more than 5 weeks followed by her absence of more than 30 minutes during the second Democratic debate. She is not physically fit to run for office, let alone be a president.

The question is, who will carry the democratic line. Will it be Biden?

I wasn't at all surprised when all these health issues were dominated by the news last night.

Congress passes bill letting 9/11 victims sue Saudi Arabia, in face of veto threat.

Why would a president veto a very legitimate claim if we can prove that the respondent is guilty of this massive terror inflicted upon us?

Any ideas?

Origin of ISIS

A very interesting topic that invites discussion for the political junkie like me.

It is very clear that it is the poor judgment of the US to not continue on the cleaning up of the scum bags in the area. But let us go further, it is not like the current occupant of the White House was in support of eliminating these terrorists, now is it? It serves his agenda that US will be toppled down and therefore remove himself from the responsibility of finishing the job by keeping them in check. So yes it is the fault of the US for not monitoring the growth of these suckers but leaving it to thrive so that they create a powerful army of blood sucking terrorists.

At least that is what I understand from the video. Not like US created them directly and made all these scum bags to terrorize the world.

Question is how would it be undone and who benefits?

Elimination of ISIS, I mean.
