No, this is FAR from accurate and not even in the ballpark of the whole story. Hillary is a woman yes, she is also a the armpit of the political spectrom when it comes to integrity. Ben Carson used to be a doctor....yes. i challenge ANYONE to research Dr Carsons background for a little bit an then find a canidate with more character and integrity than him.
Hahahaha! He lies about the stupidest shit. He lied about stabbing somebody, lied about getting a "scholarship" to West Point, and ironically lied about being named Most Honest at Yale. It's actually pretty damn funny all the things he's mightily dishonest about.
These things he lied about (you didnt put a source for them but i dont feel like looking them up whatever) arent really related to politics at all and shouldnt be accounted for in the voting. He probably isnt the absolute best candidate, but he is better than clinton, sanders, and trump by thousands of times more
guest, carson didn't really 'lie' about getting the scholarship to west point. someone offered him a sponsorship to go (which means they will pay for it) LIKE happens to most graduates of west point. so what if he rephrased it? who gives a crap? the media just LOVES to point out any bad part of every candidate, and that goes for everyone, whether it be hilary, trump, or rubio or whomever.
To anyone still reading this: Carson didnt lie about anything. Take a closer look at the headlines. EVERY headline/story was based on Carson's stories being "unconfirmed". EVERY story is holding him guilty until proven innocent. Since those stories broke, people involved in Carsons past have voiced confirmation of what he said. The Democratic party and media want so badly to make Carson look bad, but the only thing they can find "fault" with is his conservative views.
Sadly, that's the part of Sanders' platform that got out. His biggest push (of which marijuana is a part) is to try to wedge some of the government) out of corporate pockets.
His biggest push is for the working class! He is for righting the trickle-down effect which at the moment is ONLY the trickle-UP effect! A lot of successful people are BORN into it, they didn't earn it, and they're getting more and more tax exemptions, getting government handouts, seriously, Bernie Sanders knows what's up!
Murder is relative term. If you became pregnant at a young age with no way to care for the child or yourself, would you want to be forced to bare said child? These "babies" as you call them, are nothing more than a bundle of cells without human thoughts. Although I agree that abortion should always be used in extreme cases, sometimes there is no other option. You should really think of how other people's lives can be ruined before you go judging them on their decisions.
Personhood begins after a fetus becomes "viable" (able to survive outside the womb) or after birth, not at conception. Embryos and fetuses are not independent, self-determining beings, and abortion is the termination of a pregnancy, not a baby. A person's age is calculated from birth date, not conception, and fetuses are not counted in the US Census. The majority opinion in Roe v. Wade states that "the word 'person,' as used in the Fourteenth Amendment [of the US Constitution], does not include the unborn."
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
This includes much more than citizenship.
Hey man, I'm gonna agree with "thatoneguy". Even if you can't afford to take care of the baby, you can still put it up for adoption. I just don't think that any child, born or unborn, should be denied the chance to live. And honestly, the "personhood" thing is kind of stupid. That isn't a very good definition. Personhood, in my opinion, means that you are a living, thinking being. I believe that from the moment you are conceived, you are a person, and no one can take your personhood away from you.
Ok, listen here. Half of women who have abortions were using safe sex methods. BOTH my dad and his brother were conceived while their parents were using condors and birth control.
phoenixsenshi, if a girl is raped and impregnated do you still think she should be made to have the baby, even if she gives it up for adoption after? you think she should spend 9 months against her will (if she's willing to carry the baby then obviously thats great but that can't always be the case) knowing she's carrying the child of her rapist? knowing that whilst the actual rape may be over, technically the rapist is still inside her, since they share DNA and every? do you think she should have to wake up every morning and relive the trauma and not be able to get over it because she's always aware that the father of her baby is her rapist?
Well, let me ask you this. If you had a child, would you love them any less if they were the product of rape? There are some circumstances where it may be difficult to go through with having the child, but do you honestly think any child should be denied the chance to live? I would hope that any girl who has to go through that receives love and support from all those around her, and that no one would force her to give up the baby.
On a slight tangent here, I think anyone looking to have an abortion should first have an ultrasound. It's not so easy to carelessly throw away the baby's life once you actually see it. Just a thought.
And I'll tell you right now, I will not judge anyone for having an abortion. I may judge their action, but it is impossible for me to know all the circumstances that led to their decision. I love you FunSubsters no less for your thoughts, and I hope you have a good day :)
I definitely agree that no one should be forced to give up a child if they want it, and also that they should get an ultrasound. I also think, though, that no one should be forced to keep a baby they don't want.
I think this issue seems split between those who value the mother's emotional state, and those who value the life of the baby. Neither of those should be neglected, but it seems that you can't have both. I feel I come from the side where I would hope that the joy that comes from having a child would overcome any emotional torment. However, I can still see the rationale behind never putting those emotions at risk in the first place. But I think we can both agree that anyone thinking about having an abortion should have a good, long think on the matter, and not just immediately decide the baby needs to go.
Lmao, you don't think that anyone even considering having an abortion hasn't already thought about it every waking second? Come on, give people more credit.

It's a fucking fetus, if the person who is pregnant decides that she doesn't want a fetus inside of her then she should be able to get rid of it with out stupid ass people such as yourself telling her that she's killing a life/baby. It's a FUCKING FETUS!
korozco then we might as well kill you then, seeing that you have the mental capabilities as a fucking fetus

Haha that's hilarious coming from a middle schooler, what was the last science class you had earth science? Because if so that would explain you're retarded confusion between a fetus and a human being.
I don't know how the hell you get the idea that an unborn baby isn't human. You think that it's life doesn't matter until it comes out? They're the same dude. That's the dumbest shit I've heard in months.
It is genetically a human, but it doesn't start to have any mental capacity until about the third trimester. Again, I may be wrong so don't take my word for it. I am pro choice in that it is a choice. And it's not like there aren't other pregnant women out there that want to definitely keep there children, because there are more of those than women that want abortions. In the end, women have the choice to keep their bodies the way they want them. We should respect their choice like how we respect the choice to not take organs from non-organ donors or religious reasons to not perform an autopsy
True that. Arguing with thatoneguy can be a little annoying as I have a very blunt and intense personality. Retaining my anger and attempting to remain respectful takes a lot of work.
I think you did a good job on the whole. You cited sources and used reasoned arguments while thatoneguy was just being a disrespectful blabber mouth with no true rebukes other than sarcasm and foul language. It's like that one picture of the shouting man with a tiny brain versus the calm man with the large brain. Don't raise your voice, raise your argument
On behalf of a friend of mine that works at planned parenthood, it's called that for a reason. Plan ahead with your pregnancy, or plan to prevent pregnancy. Abortion is only one part of a whole that helps many women with how to work with their situations
Morally Bernie sanders had the publics best interest. Regaurdless what you believe, the president is a public servant, atleast he's supposed to be. Yes he's still a democrat so no he's not going to be pro anything republican, but the man has heart. His only true downside is that he doesn't have much in the terms of economic policy which is kinda scary
If people use crap like this post to make their decision for the presidential vote we are all in trouble. Do your homework! Think for yourself! Ingest all spectroms of the very biast media, especially the ones that oppose your views. Think conceptually.
Hey guys. What about Rand Paul? Why do most of you not even consider him? He's against the NSA thing; and also supports the withdrawal of American forces from war zones where it is only investing in countries falling apart.
Bad fruit salad, murdering babies is not nice.
It all depends on when you think someone becomes human.
This includes much more than citizenship.

I should hope we are not those people.
