US Primary elections: Who are you rooting for?

Here we go.. the day has come when US Presidential elections process formally start. As the first step which is called Primary to get one final candidate from the party, polling for Iowa Caucas has begun. Mr. Trump is leading the GOP with majority while Clinton and Bernie Sanders are in tight race from democrats side.

I strongly believe if you are in a democrat society and have a power to vote, not voting is almost criminal. Especially if you are from a immigrant family or minority.

Having said that, who will you vote for? Or if not voting, who are you supporting in primary?

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

Hillary... but Dumb Trump is popular among Americans...

"I strongly believe if you are in a democrat society"

...

Someone has been watching too much Faux News?

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

I really like Bernie Sanders but with half of my family sitting in Hillary's camaign HQ at brooklyn I'll most likely end up favoring clinton.

Also as per the polls even if Sanders win the primary, he'll most likely get defeated by any GOP candidate whether Trump or Ted Cruz. And akkh that would be the most painful situation.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

^ Thats not quite true. I have seen polls where Sanders holds a 1,2 point edge over Hillary on defeating Trump/Cruz.
Being a Clinton, Hillary is most likely going to win, but I am voting Sanders.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

I hope its true and i'll be happy if it does. Just dont see it happening

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

Dont have much choice but to vote for Hillary!

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

Surprise Surprise: Trump lost Iowa caucus to Ted Cruz with Marco Rubio a close third.

From democrat front, Clinton marginally was able to win while Sanders finished extremely narrow. Couldnt be any closer

I am more happy about the Republican results. That is a big blow to the ego of that billionaire jackass. He had the smallest numbers in terms of the crowd gathered to support him. That shows that his other rallys were a big circus where people were mainly coming to see a monkey dance

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

I feel like Cruz is more of a nut job than trump. Trump was just an attention whore. Either way, even if trump loses later on, he will probably run independant ****ing the Republican party by splitting the vote. I really wish Hillary loses - she is just a millionaire, corporate dawg who already got her chance at Secretary of State and her husband at presidency. i don't like politics that run in the family

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

Exactly thats wut he is. He’s a evangelist puppet, total idiot. He was the one who suggested carpet bombing on entire middle east in one of the debates. Full of hatred
Lets hear wut he said tonight in the victory speech:

“I’m a Christian first, American second.” - Ted Cruz, GOP #IowaCaucus](https://twitter.com/hashtag/IowaCaucus?src=hash) winner. Imagine if a Muslim or Jewish person said something similar.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

As per the polls! The same polls that didn't give Sanders ANY chance 6 months ago. What a defeatist attitude by members of the "Democrat" party!

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

NOPE. RACE IS TOO CLOSE TO CALL.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

In fact 3 delegates were won by Clinton by a COIN TOSS. If she lost all 3, Sanders would have been leading by 1.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

This is the problem when we make up our minds based on mainstream media and some polls months before the event.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

ALL of Sanders supporters like him for his policies.
Some of Hillary's supporters vote for her because they have been told she is a shoo in and has better chances of beating the Repubs.

That about captures it.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

This whole election is turning out to be disastrous already.

Ugh.

"Feeling the Bern"???

Hillary is the only one who can get stuff done and reasonably fair.

But I'm afraid of what she might do in Syria. She could quickly escalate things without meaning to. She wanted to mess with the no fly zone over Syria and it could lead to conflict with Russia. But who knows.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

Above post is full of Contradictions. Hilary can get stuff done and is fair. And in next para, worried about how she would handle Syria.

We just have to look at her track record re middle east.

As for getting stuff done, sure, she gets along better with Repubs because she is Republish when it comes to Wall Street and War. Not something liberals ought to stand behind.

Re: US Primary elections: Who are you routing for?

Bernie or nothing! If I wanted a republican in office I'd vote for the actual GOP candidate instead of Clinton.
