2. I can understand if you’re an animal lover, but understand that humans are animals that aren’t stupid. The smartest a non human can be is about as smart as Curious George, or in short, a non human cannot be smarter than a 4 year old human.

How do you know this? We can’t judge another animal’s intelligence based upon our own because other species of animals have different languages that we do not understand, different brains, and different lifestyles all together. Are you really capable of judging the intelligence of other species of animals with your biased and pseudo-superior mind?

And to the other two points you made: you made it seem like two of the reasons you liked Teddy for president was his music taste and his dislike of non-human animals. Sorry if I misunderstood.

I’m almost glad that I can’t vote this election, because I don’t have to choose between these two goons.  

There is always third party. I think if anything should change it is the whole First Pass the Post system so that people can vote for whom every they want and not feel like they have to vote strategically, like we could switch the presidential election to Alternative voting so third party would have a better chance.

Here’s a scenario. Let’s say there’s an lion and a hunter, the lion is locked up in a cage but there’s nothing but dirt below him and the hunter is sleeping in a house made of wood and there’s a puddle of gasoline and a box of matches right next to his house, when the hunter wakes up, the lion’s getting shot. The animal (even ones with human like hands, like monkeys) does not have the capacity to realize that if he digs under the ground to get out of his cage, light the match, and throw it, the house will explode and the hunter will die, not him, whereas if I replaced the lion and hunter scenario with a female hostage and a threatening male, then the human would be able to do that. Point is, humans can  strategize a hell of a lot better than animals. Also, you should read about Ted Nugent, here’s a link to the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Nugent. I’d like you to form your own opinion on him and decide for yourself whether or not he’s a good person, as it’s your opinion not mine. What I like about him is all the stuff you said, he wants to live the American dream, and he’s a well mannered, well morale, respectful, man while he does it.

Maybe you should try posting more.

What they should have you do is write in who you want and the person who wins gets the option to become president and if they refuse, they go down the list until someone says yes.

That would be a mess, that would invite trolls to write in really bad options for president. Like if a troll movement got Bamboo Harvester elected in to office or a talking bird.

Considering people would probably vote for Little Wayne or some other gangster rapper if they ran, It can’t get much worse.

You’d end up with someone called Boaty McBoatFace in charge :/

To be fair Boaty would probably be a better president than the two muppets in the running.

Joe can’t be, which is why I think @Zig for president is best, he is already good at giving middle of the road responses that cause few waves.

I’m thinking about what to do for Halloween, as if you didn’t know, it’s been a family tradition to keep our kids out of school on Halloween.

Because Nevada Day(A Political Holiday) is on Halloween, the weekend of Halloween is usually a 3-5 day weekend here.  Unfortunately, we don’t always get Halloween day off(Like year), since Nevada day is celebrated on the last Friday of October.  It all depends on the day of the week that Halloween lands on.

That is one very specific scenario, but what I think you were trying to say where I bolded is: some humans can strategize much better than some other (because, remember? Humans are animals too) animals in some specific situations, but with that being said, other species of animals, in some specific situations, are much more capable of human animals with strategizing.
