why do people pay attention to debates

Well in other countries, debates actually are interesting.... in america... yeah, dont get it either.

 

i dont know what you're talking about, debates are awesome

american presidential debates are some weakass shit but no one speaks out about it - because, like OP demonstrates, americans dont give a fuck, and the ones that do are a sad minority

no one debates like the british

look at these bad motherfuckers

oxford educated orators going at it like fucking gladiators, i love this

 

Haha, viking, this is awesome.

I wish I could re-find the debate between france, england and some others about wether germany should leave the euro zone. One of the most entertaining and interesting debates Ive seen.


I dont get how so many people can feel uncomfortable with their current system in the US and still noone does shit.

 

if you do, share!

and yeah, USA needs new political parties asap

too bad the whole thing was taken down, only cut up pieces of it are still online, but the thing really was liked by my high ass back then....

anyways their website is pretty nice they seem to put together some nice videos.

A Decade of Debate : Intelligence Squared


Granted, way less action than in your video

 

thats awesome, we need debates like that, maybe some fisticuffs thrown in

 

ENTP's seem to like debates. Not really a debate person but more a ask questions to stimulate mind person.

 

Does anyone else notice that USA is the only country that starts the president race something like a year or two in advance. It's almost like some crazy ass neverending marathon and since I don't really follow that theatre I sometimes wonder if the President has changed cause they are CONSTANTLY talking about these presidential debates. It's like a football game where the players start talking shit to each other and giving interviews daily a whole fucking year in advance. Is this really necessary? You can literaly find every candidate saying every possible thing and then denying it some weeks later lol. I love it when someone makes a video compilation of how presidential candidates contradict themselves. It has to be clear to any free-thinking individual that Presidents in USA and other countries are just theatrical compositions. I felt very sad for humanity's IQ when I saw all those crazy retards all over New York and Washington celebratin O'bummer's election. They were literaly jumping 2 meters in height and yelling and celebrating like they had the greatest orgasms of their lives. How can people be so naive after so many examples in the human history that end up the same way over and over and over again. But they still believe...

 

You know if its just those two parties (republicans and democrats) then its just a bunch of pandering, emotionally charged rhetoric with zero substance.
Meaningless or distracting hubbub - white noise.

 

Would we really want such educated presidents? Craftier criminals with smoother lips...

 

The whole two party thing is messed up to begin with. Two parties can never cover the whole range. For example Id vote for the conservative democrats over here. we have extreme lefties, centered lefties, centered righties, extreme right, green party. Fuck, we even have a fucking pirate party what the fuck.

But since I dont know what way you could possibly change the thing its gonna stay the same. Over all if I see waht my country has been through the last few decades its pretty weird to see american politicians still talking the same shit as 40 years ago (basically).

the US is jsut to static, too few changes, too much of the same bullshit over and over again.

 

Obama was drugged! That is all!

 

True republicans and democrats aren't at all different. The candidates pretent they differ and talk about stupid things like gay marriage and say stuff like " dah economy is bad". But both support NDAA, Patriot act. Camps, and are funded by bbig buisness (some of the same corprations suport money to both the romney and obama camaigns like goldman sacks)

 

What exactly do you suggest we do? The people are powerless.

 

not if you unite

which is why the two-party system owns you, because it's turned half the country against the other half, almost perfectly 50-50

 

Well OP it's that ignorance that has made America the shitty country that it is now. Fucking seriously, go learn some politics man. It's nice to actually learn what's about to happen to the country.

 

It's the illuminati...
