Why The Debate When The Parties Have Not Chosen Their Candidates?!
tvc184 replied to Reagan's topic in Political Forum
The DNC push to install (not elect) Hillary as the heir apparent is what started the chain of elections since 2012. It will finally play out this year. In 2028 we won’t have a bunch of 80 year olds fighting for a spot. Had 2016 been a completely fair primary from the DNC, Hillary would not have been the Democrats’ nominee. Anyone but Hillary would have beaten Trump but they wanted their female president and a Clinton at that. So they installed one of the worst candidates ever. That have Trump his stunning victory which in turn started TDS, ABT, etc. -

I didn’t read your comment before I posted. I thought that Virginia was the test case for at birth abortions but it failed. -

That is because Virginia attempted to pass a law that allowed a single physician to allow an at birth abortion for as little as the mental health of the mother. I believe the current law reads that three doctors had to concur that there was substantial risk of death to the mother before a third trimester abortion could be performed. The change would have made it up to birth, a single physician signing off on it and as little as the mental health of the mother. It failed but the “want to” was clearly out there from Democrats. -
It's Likely Already Too Late To Remove Joe Biden From The Ballot!
tvc184 replied to Reagan's topic in Political Forum
There are so many laws on ballots that it could probably be a degree course. Some say things like, you have to declare your party before January 1 each election year (so in the previous year) and you can’t change. So a potential candidate can’t declare to be a Democrat in December 2023 and then in May 2024 decide to file paperwork to run as a Republican. Each state is different though on dates (including actually different dates on “major” and “minor” parties), appeals, party affiliations, changes to the ballot by any means and so on. The Nevada alone for the 2023-2024 elections season is 9 pages with links to other pages. The states combined might have thousands of pages of election information. The Texas Election Code has about 160…. Chapters. I could understand where a person could read a line or two and say, “Aha! That’s the answer” and ignore 567 pages. -

Maybe you think that the Nevada Secretary of State, who has to certify the election, is wrong? I didn’t notice any links to your Kirk article. Is anything posted to back this up or is it simply a claim? -

This is what the Nevada Secretary of State shows for ballot deadlines on the last Friday in June: June 28, 2024 CHALLENGE OF CANDIDACY - (not later than 5 p.m. on the 4th Friday in June) Last day for filing with the appropriate filing officer challenge of qualification of an independent candidate for a partisan office. SO IT’S THE LAST DAY!! …. to file an appeal of qualifications of an “independent candidate” for any partisan office. I don’t think we are discussing independent candidates. -

The “too late” for Biden or anyone is approaching but in all states likely 6-10 weeks away. That isn’t long but has almost certainly the date to be on the ballot has not passed for any state. -

Fact: The deadlines exist. Fact: The candidate doesn’t have to be named by the deadline. I read the Wisconsin law and didn’t bother with the rest when I posted. It listed the fourth Friday at 5pm as the deadline to submit for the filing of the party. Under the name of the candidate it stated something like (I don’t feel like looking it up again at this moment), “To be determined by the party’s procedures at a later date”. So it says that you have to submit that your party wants to place a candidate on the ballot by the date listed. It goes on to say basically, to be determined by the party at a later date. There are other dates for the party to actually name the person. I believe it was yesterday that I saw a video (unconfirmed by me) that Ohio had to have the ballot complete by August 7(?). I only bring that one up to show that there are definitely deadlines for the actual name on the ballot. Just now I pulled up Nevada. In the OP it shows Midnight on the fourth Friday to remove Biden. This is what I found from the Nevada Secretary of State official website: September 3, 2024 LAST DAY FOR MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES TO PROVIDE SECRETARY OF STATE NAMES OF PRESIDENTIAL AND VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES - Each major political party must provide the names of the party's respective candidates for President and Vice President of the United States to the Secretary of State by not later than 5 p.m. on the first business day of September of the year of a presidential election. So the SoS official Nevada website shows September 3, 2024 (first business day since September 2 is Labor Day) as the final day that major political parties can submit a presidential and vice presidential candidate for the ballot. That doesn’t exactly square with the claim in the OP where the deadline passed last night. -

I will note that you started a thread this week on why the presidential debate when the candidates weren’t know. Correct so how could a state demand an unknown person? -

Thoughts… Nonsense and taken way out of context. There are ballot deadlines but this is not talking about the final ballot deadline for a specific person on the November general election. Those deadlines I believe are for political parties to submit to the state that the party intends to put up a candidate. It isn’t for naming the candidate. So the DNC and RNC have until those listed dates to say, we plan to put our candidate on the ballot in November. It doesn’t require naming the candidate. That date will come later but there are no conventions ever held that early with almost all DNC and RNC conventions being held in July and August. How could a state demand a name when no one knows the name in June in most presidential elections years. So the dates are correct but the context is absolutely false in my opinion. -

Miracle recovery. -
Regulations? Probably. Fees? Probably not. If Congress enacted a fee or if they gave an agency that authority to regulate a fee, it would probably be lawful. It is like if Texas passed a law (which I think they did) that said the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission has the authority to set the length and possession limits on fish, then they can do so because the legislature gave them that specific authority. If they were not given the specific authority, it would be unlawful. In this case a federal law was passed that the inspectors had to be on the fishing boats to regulate the commercial fishing catch. The law did not say who would pay for the federal inspectors to ride on the boats. They were federal employee so you would assume the federal government would pay their salary like any employer. The federal agency controlling fishing however, decided to make the commercial fishing fleet pay the salaries of the federal agents. Nothing in the law said that and nothing in the law gave the agency the authority to force a salary on a private company. Under the Chevron case from 1984, the Supreme Court (stupidly in my opinion) ruled that if there was any ambiguity in the law, a federal agency could basically fill in the blanks. Now they have to use the rule of lenity or strict construction. If a law is ambiguous or not clear, the courts should rule in favor of the person accused. The federal agency can’t make up their own opinion as law.

That was certainly the spin from MSNBC and CNN. I watched both after the debate. Biden looked terrible…. it was a poor performance… BUT he hit hard with facts … blah blah. So apparently they believe (as MSNBC and CNN said), Biden hit them with facts! Really, like Biden closed the border? Does anyone believe the border was ever secured under Biden? Or perhaps when Biden said in the debate, I am the only president in this century to not have troops dying anywhere in the world. Hmm… like maybe the ones killed during the disastrous quick abandonment of Afghanistan where 13 soldiers, Marines and sailors were killed? There were more than 20 others killed including in a recent drone attack. I wonder what the families of over 30 service men and women think about Biden saying that they weren’t killed with several from his pullout orders? Biden, the Border Patrol union supported me! No, they didn’t and went on the television after the debate to dispute the claim Biden, Black unemployment is the lowest it’s been in a long time. No, it’s currently at 6.1%. It was 5.6% under Trump in May 2020 before Covid put a substantial percentage of people out of work. In the middle of 2019 under Trump it was at 5.5% for Blacks in total and Black females at 4.4%. Trump has always been an exaggerator and blow hard narcissist and everything he did was always “the best”. To suggest however that Trump’s comments were lies and ignore the lies by Biden is silly. -

Both MSNBC and CNN are about to have Harris on live. Any chance that she comes in and says what a great job he did? 🤣🤣🤣 Chris Wallace just said, Biden has sunk his campaign. -

Watching MSNBC and CNN, they have pretty much thrown in the towel for Biden. CNN has had a commentator mention “if” someone comes in to replace Biden, he will likely win… So they know that the cards have been dealt but the replacement hasn’t been named publicly yet. -
