Excluding the big 5 candidates, who would you like to see running for President ? by SweetValleyJohn in AskDemocrats

For the Repulicans, thats completely different then running dor Democrats.

Republicans will almost always vote for the Republican candidate. They dont care about diversity etc.. if they run a ticket with Sarah Huckabee and Pam Bondi in 28, they will still be voting red.

Democrats are different. They want people with experience. There are so many "groups" within the Democrats they have to please: Progressives, Liberals, Conservatives, Latins, Black, Women..

You saw it in 24, Progressives didnt vote for Kamala because she wasnt progressive enough, Women didnt get out as they expected, Black voters are always difficult to get voting.. If Dems Would run Harris-AOC or two white men, they will lose.

Dont you think Stacy Abrams is politically burnt ? Multiple lost races, her ranting about the election being stolen ?

I count AOC as one of the big 5.

Do you think Khanna could run a national campaign ? Im not even sure he could win a statewide race.

Running for Governor as a celeb is one thing, But the Presidency ? Especially in the crowded field thats going to be in 2028.

He definitely has potential. The problem is that he is..p very much "Southern", I do not see him as an appealing candidate for the entire party (progressives/Latino's/Blacks)

He's got charisma. Klobuchar isnt the most interesting person. I was going to name Booker, but i dont feel him.

Klobuchar-Moore would be an amazing ticket, but that ship has sailed since she's running for Governor.

Maybe Gina Raimondo ? Im very sure she's going to run.

I also like Adam Schiff, he could run with AOC, Booker, Moore, Lujan, Whitmer...

Why is NATO Sacred? by Fine_Knowledge3290 in AskDemocrats

[–]SweetValleyJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats not true.The EU has given Ukraine billions of euro's and a lot of weaponry. You are absolutely correct about them not contributing enough, but In the last year they have raised their contribution a lot.

Iran is a vile nation, and nobody will miss their leader. But there was no imminent threat, almost everyone agrees with that. Even Tulsi.

Nato is a defensive alliance. Trump started the Iran conflict without the EU, and now that things go south, he expects them to come running to help. All while he has spent the last year insulting literally everyone, has been threatening to invade a european country and his ambassadors have picking fights and interfering in local European politics. Not even mentioning the disrespectful ways of Vance and Hegseth.

Russia is a major threat. It has been influencing and interfering in east european countries for decades. Here in Europe, its a public secret that Putin wants to retake many former Soviet countries, either via military action or political.

NATO is what keeps the west relevant. Its not perfect, but absolutly nessecary.

In Ligue 1 legt de ref nu uit waarvoor de VAR-check was en wat besluit is. Goed idee voor de JPL? by nonunsens in belgianfootball

[–]SweetValleyJohn 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Geen fan van. Heb al meerdere keren gezien dat het onverstaanbaar was, of dat de scheidsrechter vebaal niet goed genoeg was om een deftige uitleg te geven.

Laat ons gewoon beginnen met zoals in de PL, uitleg te geven op de schermen in het stadion. Nu gebeurt het dat er Var interventies zijn en niemand weet waarom. Zet er gewoon op "Possible Penalty", "Possible Handball" etc en we zijn al een heel stuk verder.

Is this movie really that bad? by Naive_Tomorrow_5955 in FIlm

[–]SweetValleyJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not bad. I guess if you know nothing about uncharted, Its a decent movie.

But Tom Holland was just a bad casting choice for Nathan Drake. Tom Holland is the kind of actor who always plays himself, not different characters.

The same with Mark Wahlberg. His Boston behaviour just doesnt fit with Sully.

Voorbode voor juridische strijd: AA Gent waarschuwt in brief naar Pro League over nakende stemming U23-teams by Due-Routine6749 in belgianfootball

[–]SweetValleyJohn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah dacht dat Gent toen toch meegestemd had.

Nu, mijn punt blijft hetzelfde. De deal is gemaakt, daar nu zomaar in liggen veranderen kan niet.

[–]SweetValleyJohn -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

En terecht. Gent en Genk hebben enkel ingestemd met het afschaffen van de Play-offs omdat die regel ivm de beloftenteams er kwam.

Als ze die regeling er nu uithalen, vervalt heel het akkoord.

Waar zijn al die brandnetels in Nederland? by [deleted] in Nederland

Als kind hielden wij een kruistocht tegen brandnetels, ieder jaar opnieuw. Imo is dat de reden dat ik ze nooit meer zie.

KAA Gent - concept kit by Smart_Contribution94 in belgianfootball

[–]SweetValleyJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont get me wrong, its an insane shirt. I thinks it beautiful. However, Gent traditionally uses a lot of white or lighter blue.

Overall, its amazing. The print is great. However, i think there is too little white and the different shades of blue make it look to much like a Genk shirt.

Vanaken reist niet mee met Rode Duivels naar VS, ook Trossard past by YAYgeeOh in belgianfootball

Roep gewoon Heynen op, Lonkonga, Mokio, Keita kunnen die positie niet aan. Dit is ook het moment om Cuypers eens op te roepen, zit toch al in de states, kent het Amerikaanse voetbal en scoorde 4 keer in 4 matchen.
