I get your point, and i dont disagree. but tell me this. do you have more power to vote out your mayor or your president? I believe the former is the correct answer there which is why keeping it local is the better option (in general)

I do NOT believe that to be the case with vital infrastructure. which I consider the internet to be.

id prefer local corruption, which is easier to remove and affects a handful of people comparatively speaking, over federal corruption, which affects 400 million people

well a limited government type would not want the GOVERNMENT to provide services that can be provided by the private sector so it actually does fit the mantra

the federal government SHOULD be doing as little as possible. Keeping politics local means less oppression as mission creep seeps in

also - term limits

dang coyote and his wacky acme schemes!!!!

i live in an area that is being bombarded with thee ads daily, and yet i havent seen any new businesses pop up in the hudson valley

are we REALLY going to start with that garbage already??? disagree with hillary and all of a sudden SEXIST!!!!

Grow up

we have that now in obama, no we dont need even more of it

i generally dont bother responding to ACs with comments like this but I will in this case

the other poster specifically said he wouldnt answer the question only because it was posed by an AC.

therefore I came in and asked him about it (not the AC he was responding to)

Give me proof of something that she has done that is worthy of praise, ill give it. im not blinded by partisanship like some others here.

As I said above, living in NY while she was our senator, having met the woman (believe it or not in 2004 I was a fan of hers) I simply dont see a single good thing she did for NY as senator, nor have I seen anything good from her time as SoS.

the difference being that they were not running their own servers, having access to wipe it without government oversight.

if you can show me any of them (or anyone else) who was running their own mail server, and keeping it away from government oversight, im keen to listen and change my opinion, but based on those links, there is a HUGE difference between them and hillary

did you even read those links???? Because there is a big difference legally between not wanting to release publicly, and hosting and scrubbing your emails. the one about jeb bush even points out that they know what they know because the emails were made public.
having said that, not one of your links says that any of them broke any laws, while it is clear as day that clinton did in fact break the law

nothing???

it is strange as usually there are a lot more libertarian minded people here. i guess they are all out doing things with their lives this weekend

a presidential runner is news for ALL, yes that includes nerds.

or hes playing the game that his father wouldnt play to get ahead

remember all the crazy things obama said when running?? being transparent, and no continuing the ways of bush??? we all see how that happened....
