    Of course it is a joke.

    You could probably find one for Germans

    Of course there are some humorless groups that would certainly not be allowed

    You see these for football teams too.

    Nothing against it, just that the value density is much lower.

    I don't know how current it is, but if you're interested in a detailed breakdown, go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Democratic_Party_vice_presidential_candidate_selection

    There you will learn that two of the candidates are/were Elizabeth Warren and Maxine Waters.

    NNTTM.

    Oh, and Nancy Pelosi. Which should give you an idea of how reliable this list is.

    Do any of them past the sniff test?

    @Horace said in Would the country be better off if....:

    Maybe nobody wants to own it now, but in fact the other side of the discussion has always been about hand wavy notions that Presidents have random, undefinable, or no important effect on the economy or voters' money in general.

    Why do you think it is that the stock market has performed so much better under Democratic administrations?

    Overall trends don't necessarily track minority contributors to those trends. But the discussions we've had about this originated in opinions about Trump vs Bernie or Warren. We don't have legitimate historical precedent for that comparison, even though you'd see that statistic trotted out by Dem voters every time the subject was broached. I don't anticipate Biden will be as drastic as those two would have been, at least by intention.

    Miranda might be our only hope. Instead of destroying all the statues, we might be able to sneak by just by giving them wider noses.

    Wait, what did leaving have to do with getting this guy out? In what sense was it a sacrifice?

    Also how did this guy get 50 years?!?
