    Don’t follow much US politics because yous cunts shoehorn it into every fuckin thread about squirrels, dog food or whatever, but why is that lassie not your president? Instead of the two pish-reeking geriatric cunts you’ve got at the moment

      Technically, she wasn’t old enough to run until this year.

      More practically, we have a center-right party and a fascist party in this country. The center-right party has a few actual leftists in it, but they tend not to gain much power.

        It’s pretty consistent. Black men got the right to vote long before women too. The US has more deep rooted misogyny than racism, and it’s got plenty of racism.

          Blew my mind when I found out women couldn’t have their own bank accounts in the United states until 1974.

      She will not be the minimum age of 35 until next year and this is ineligible to run for the position till 2028

      Also, we have a racism and sexism issue in this country so it would be an uphill battle.
