What will be the driving issue in 2016?

J

Senator
Competence
​
That is the one thing that has been most missing for the past 6 years and it is only going to get worse.

It doesn't matter how bad the world situation gets. The reason it got that way is the lack of competence in the Obama administration.

It doesn't matter that the economy isn't any better than it was when Bush left office. The reason it isn't is the lack of competence in the Obama administration.

It doesn't matter that race relations are at a low not seen for 50 years. The reason is lack of competence in the Obama administration.

If ebola spreads, it's due to lack of competence in this administration.

If anyone evil gets close to the President or his family.............. Lack of Competence.

The man or woman who wins the election in 2016 is going to be the candidate who shows us that he is more competent than the others. We are literally STARVING for competence in the leadership of this country.

"Don't do stupid stuff"
is not a good policy for anything.
 
We need a president that will at least engage in activities. Unless its Race bating or sports our president doesn't want to be bothered. It hard to think someone is that lazy or that incompetent, but the proof is there for all to see.

Those ARE the only two things Barry is engaged in: race baiting and sports. Well, there is one other thing he does ..............BLAME. But that's a side issue.

But that comes back to competence. A competent President would know better than to do those two stupid things out front and make it obvious that they are the only two things he cares about. Both lazy and incompetent.

For 2016 I see the dominant issue being how Obamacare will be able to cope with the tremendous drain on the system posed by required mass surgical separation of lefty lips from Obama's backside. Over the course of eight years, lefty lip has bonded at a molecular level with BHO buttocks. Secondarily, the surge in associated occurrences of lefty hepatitis will also be a major issue.

These factors may just be the 1-2 punch that KO's Obamacare.

But on the bright side of things, if those who have had their lips genetically merged with Obama's back side can manage to get rid of the old and infirm in the population and blame it on the GOP (how can it be Democrats? Everyone can see they are bound by lip to Obama and he knows nothing).................. then they should survive it all and not have to have that lip-separation surgery after all.
 
Propaganda, misinformation, hatred and lies from the Right Wing is the biggest problem for 2016 because it will pollute people into thinking things that are simply not true.

Wow, I'm surprised you didn't blame Obama for the pimple on your arse... Or is that going to happen in your next post??
 
Ask me next spring. Kinda need to see 2-3 more quarters of economic data and who is running for POTUS to see what the driving issue(s) will be. I also think who runs will depend a lot on what happens next month.

Fair enough.
Six years of sheer screwing up prompts me to believe that competency will be a key element.
I can't guarantee that the GOP will put up someone who is competent. The field there is pretty sparse at the moment.
 
if competence is a 2016 issue then the loony left needs to run someone other than Hillary. I don't think she has a single accomplishment in her life. Her inaction kills 4 people and all she has to say is what difference does it make. She failed to take action on Boco Harram guys and didn't put them on the terrorist list. She did nothing or accomplished nothing her whole time as Head of the State Department. Her time as Senator was the same. She is what you call an empty chair.

Of course I agree with you, Fast Eddy, but she will be portrayed as the MOST experienced and ready person there............and if anyone asks for any Hillary accomplishment , they will be called vile names.
 
No president, however competent, can reverse capitalism's inexorable slide toward depression and war.

The election will be decided by the ruling class ... it always is ... and the decision will come down to a question of foreign policy ... it always does.

But the public will be fed a carefully choreographed contrast of personalities and asked to choose which is more "competent," "presidential," etc. Just like Obama won election as the "competent" alternative to Bush's bungling.

So true.

Bush was a "good old boy", "a real American", the kind of guy you wanted to have a beer with. He would restore America's goodness, after that dirty old man Bill Clinton despoiled the White House with his sexual escapades.

It seems some regard the act of waging war as "competent"...even if the "war" was incompetently managed.

Money is the key. Those of us who have argued that the massive money needs to removed are proven correct everyday. If "The American Dream" is dead, as postulated elsewhere on this forum, the failure of our elective system is a large part of that death. One generally must be in the deep pockets of some large contributors to win political office these days. Extreme gerrymandering has also made electoral fairness a less than regular event.

Candidates need to be "managed"...and groomed...and PR floods the airwaves with targeted propaganda spots. I despise the governor's race here in Maryland. The Dem is useless and tells us he served in the military and has a family. BFD! The Republican...is a Republican. He isn't the craziest loon in the asylum, but a Republican none the less.

Regardless, I find it interesting that Obama is literally blamed for every ill in the world by the top poster. A slightly, no, make that wildly, askew perspective, imo.
 
i gave this a like, but i think competence won't be an issue, while it should be. here are my (top 3) predictions for each party's theme issues in 2016:

Democrats -

1 - "war on women"
2 - "the rich don't pay enough taxes"
3 - "republicans are evil racists"

republicans -

1 - "hillary is a liar and can't be trusted"
2 - "i promise to balance the budget, and sell you the brooklyn bridge"
3 - "lets get tough on terrorism"
 
I think the REAL issue - the one that swings the electoral pendulum, will be more social spending vs. less social spending.

The U.S. can't afford guns and butter any more. If we are given a choice at all, it will be between steep cuts in social spending, and steeper cuts in social spending.
 
the same issues that were the driving issues in 2008.

maybe?

8 years. little change.

speaking of little change. americans as a whole have little but change ($) these past years..

With the number of people o welfare and food stamps we need steeper and steeper cuts. It is pure ridiculous how much we pay out. We need to stop money for single mothers and make the fathers pay up and if that means mandatory blood tests, so be it.
