With 20+ running is won't every candidate stick it up until Super Tuesday just 30 days after Iowa? Top 3 (Biden, Bernie, Pete) then drag it out to June. I'd say some will probably drop out before 2019 is even over. Even though they don't need as high a share of the vote to win, if you're not going anywhere, you might just count your losses early.

SaysWho? Posted May 9, 2019 Author Share Posted May 9, 2019 Tapes from Sanders' 1980s public access show have been released. Noah's right: if I went back in a time machine and the first person I saw was Bernie, I'd be like, "Huh, lemme try PoS again." Look how he talks to the kids about two minutes in. "I disagree with you. I think you're dumb." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather Inslee be in the debates to really make climate front and center. On his platform, all the other issues circle back to climate (immigration and the economy are affected by climate). His voice is important for that. Gillibrand is under 1%, which is surprising for me. I figured she'd get around the same as Booker or at least more than someone like Hickenlooper. 21 minutes ago, b_m_b_m_b_m said: I hope inslee makes the debates at the very least.

Quote The second source, a former energy department official also advising Biden’s campaign who asked not to be named, said the policy will likely also be supportive of nuclear energy and fossil fuel options like natural gas and carbon capture technology, which limit emissions from coal plants and other industrial facilities. Holy fucking shit, there's so such fucking thing as CCS.

Jason Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Quote Plame will likely face questions about accusations of anti-Semitism that came to light in 2017. Plame tweeted an article in 2017 that accused "American Jews" of "driving America's wars." Written on the fringe site UNZ Review, it stated Jews "own and run the media" and recommended Jewish supporters of Israel like Bill Kristol be labeled as such when they appear on television: "That would be kind-of-like a warning label on a bottle of rat poison." She initially defended herself against criticism about sharing the piece, at one point tweeting "many neocon hawks ARE Jewish" before eventually apologizing and claiming to have not read the article carefully. Because of the controversy, she resigned from the board of the Ploughshares Fund, a left-wing nonprofit that aggressively promoted the Iran nuclear deal on behalf of the Obama administration. The Washington Examiner reported that over the course of thee years she shared nine UNZ articles, including one titled "Why I Still Dislike Israel" and another about "Dancing Israelis" on 9/11.

You're gonna have to link a source on that one, but the process of creating concrete is a massive CO2 emitter (heating CaCO3 into Ca, CO2 and O2) so it would have to be a different formulation that I'm not familiar with.
