Doesn't he only care about the poor when seone else is doing along with the funding?

Still sounds like a typical politician anyway.

He doesn't want to destroy the world, he wants China and India to cut emissions before putting major work into cutting American emissions.

It's not a troll, he was planning on resigning in November anyway. I think he's resigning now, partially because he's accomplished his life goal of meeting the pope, and partially because he just doesn't see a reason to take all of the abuse he'll get for stopping the shutdown.

Clinton is worse than Warren but better than whatever Republican might be elected if we don't put forth a strong candidate
#haveyoutriedkasich

srsly though. quash kasich is great.

  • Not gonna be stupid about gay marriage.
  • Give illegal immigrants amnesty if they pay a fine.
  • Believes climate change is a problem. (although, being small government, he probably won't do much about it. Maybe just a little.)
  • He's not against the safety net.

    "I’m concerned about the fact there seems to be a war on the poor."

kasich is not insasich.

Other than his deliberate destruction of educational infrastructure, attempted (and partially successful) annihilation of worker's rights, and massive corruption, you mean.

Source? I live in Ohio, where (Thanks to Kasich) companies are legally allowed to have you strip-searched on a whim as part of a drug test, the schools and libraries are in the toilet because Kasich cut most of the funding, and all our large cities were merged into a couple of voting districts to keep Kasich in power, not to mention that he makes Scott Walker look union-friendly. There is NOTHING good about the son of a bitch.

Sounds even screwier than Jeb Bush. Although the only complaint about Jeb Bush AFAIK is that he screwed the Florida education system.

The guy never had my vote in the first place anyway.

Also, I wonder when the REALLY dirty laundry and the ugliest skeletons in their closets will start coming out in the debates, then again, Kasich hasn't been attacked that much in the debates yet.

Nah, jeb fucked other things up, too. Personally just tend to pipe up about the guy re: his education buggery 'cause that's his screwup that hit closest to home.

The convenient thing about the party system is that all the people with broadly the same views are clustered together.

They're all like that though.  It's true, it's convenient that the party system clusters views but it doesn't do much to foster interesting debate.  All the republican candidates I've seen have the same bad ideas about how to fix education.

John Boehner just keeps troll, troll, trollin' along...

The same bad ideas get really stale after a while.  I think that as citizens we should step up and start voicing some different bad ideas about how to fix education.  For instance, Finnish language classrooms educate their students very well so we should start teaching our classes in Finnish.  Not teaching our students to speak Finnish, but teaching math, history, composition, etc. in the Finnish language.
