In this current political landscape. I say yes a lot of the blue collar people who went for Trump and stayed home would have come out for Bernie. The DNC problem was and is one of strategy. The thought they could focus on the disaffected Republican voters at the exclusion of the core Democratic voters.They felt they were entitled to voting blocs to the point they ignored their concerns during the campaign and when those blocs did not turnout in sufficient numbers they now want to blame those blocs which is fundamentally wrong. As it relates to Bernie the voters who stayed home and some who went for Trump in the working class would have gone straight to Bernie.the midwest would not have gone red the lack of passion that plagued Hillary would have not affected Bernie.

Would you make voting mandatory in the USA?
According to this website, 22 countries make voting mandatory. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/...ing-mandatory/ You can vote white, crap or... your candadite. That put everybody in front of its social responsability. |

In opposite to the US or France our Bundes-Präservativ (for the Engish: [=condom] cacography of word Präsident in German ) is more an ambassador ("a nice to meet Uncle") than the head of the Government. The head of the government is the chancellor. (I personally don't like this guy because of the role he had during the government with former chancellor Schroeder ). One word to Macron: If he fails, the country is straightly going to Le Pen, I fear. He is convicted to have success.

I used the wrong term. That's true... In documentaries they mention :"Le chancelier... Hitler". |

http://avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/jack01.asp Once again, the drafters of the U.S. Constitution purposely bypassed the state governments in the ratification process to avoid carrying the cancerous notions of states having supremacy over the federal government forward from the Articles of Confederation. Naturally demagogues continued to try to assert these bogus states rights, which was to lead to the death of some 625,000 people during the 1860s. Another Andrew Jackson quote, speaking to Lewis Cass, December 17, 1832, "If I can judge from the signs of the times Nullification, and secession, or in the language of truth, disunion, is gaining strength, we must be prepared to act with promptness, and crush the monster in its cradle before it matures to manhood." Kentucky in particular didn't have a leg to stand on. All states, except Texas and West Virginia, admitted after the original thirteen were formed on federal land. Its very existence as a state was a privilege granted to it by the federal government. It should be noted that Kentucky was one of the slave holding states that did not join the Confederacy. So the earlier confusion had been recognized by that state. |

This may be a question that is separated by political beliefs which is something I'm hoping can be avoided. How is Chelsea Clinton regarded in the U.S.A. I ask this because I am currently watching a report by Tucker Carlson(kneels in praise) talking about how she is being accused of plagiarism over a childrens book she has written. Carlson derides her achievements pretty hilariously to be fair but I wondered if it was a commonly held feeling or if nobody really cared or gave her much thought.

This. Only worry about if she will be forced on the voters like her mother.
