  1. No you are allowed to vote in the general election for any candidate you want parties are private non governmental entities and therefore able to determine their own membership as long as the usual non discrimination rules are followed. How unamerican are you??
  2. Actually yes, especially hispanic.
  3. Really? Why should a party let you influence their selection when you have shown no loyalty, done no work in support. Too me this idea is assine. If you want to be part of a party you should be at least committed to its ideals and not be able to use it because it is convenient to a candidate that really isnt in this case a democrat and paid his/ her dues.
  4. [quote name="K-9" post="826216" timestamp="1463682997" As for your thoughts on corporate America, I suggest reading the recent article in TIME about how capitalism has changed over the last 40 years. It was a real eye-opener and has me doing much more research on the matter. Long story short, corporate America has been negatively impacted by the emergence of various new funds on Wall Street and our debt-fueled economy in the face of the decades of deregulation. Corporate America is not the enemy and it has become harder for it to bestow the benefits to the citizenry it once did. Interesting premise, will need to check it out. On the surface, I could see that argument as having merit. Wall Street changes though I would argue is part of a greater change in that the citizenery has greater access to get rich quick gambling without actually producing anything substantively. This is part of the internet generation and Ivam not sure where it goes and how long it lasts as we as a society get used to its effect on our lives and adjust to it till the next big thing comes along.
  5. I hear you but disagree, real Sanders supporters wont support Hillary, just like the right wont wont support Trump. They are true believers and unless you are lock step in line witheir myopic view of the way politics works and how to get things done you are the enemy. While I lean toward the left, there are ways to push the country in a positive sustainable direction without disengaging or mistakenly trying to cut out corporate america... it aint gonna happen... but Trump will lead us in such a wrong direction I cant believe Sanders supporters dont get on board with HRC and work hard toward pushing our country inclusively towards their goals. HRC will listen and be helpful. Despite the political rough and tumble she is an honorable and patient leader who likes results but want coalitions built. Its the only way your goals are even remotely sustainable. Are there bad actors in corporate america sure, and there are good ones too. Just punishing all doesnt work nor does stamping your feet and throwing a temper tantrum work. Get invovled stay involved. Political work is tough work, it requires time and committment for more than one campaign cycle. I know I did it for 21 plus years. rather than shouting threats learn how to make the system work, change what can be changed and realize corporate agendas will always be there and they need incentives to do the right thing not just threats.
  6. Perry has long been known as a pos alfresson like guy with lots of skill but a scum on the ice.
  7. Lol, proud member SEIU 1199 medical professional. Ah Texas, steers and .... remember Santa Anna we can always give it back, just remember us Northerners kicked their once and no we are invading again. So you are called a damn Yankee.
  8. . Lol ps have a buddy who shot 30 years for Pepsico using spritzer bottle against green screens for just the right effect. here is a link to a caterer shoot I did on location. https://fischerwilliamsphoto.smugmug.com/Food
  9. JT Commission visit you recently? Or Union negotiators?
  10. Ah good to hear Judge smell is alive and well... tell him I didnt do it.
  11. I agree, still think Sabres can sign a D, draft more D in later rounds and develop one but they need someone with nice hands Nylander or Keller fit that bill. So including Big 3, Nylander Tkachuk, PLD and Keller any more Euro forwards or Bellows worthy of consideration. I guess I am asking if any D get drated in top 7 before Sabres pick. Liking me some Keller, not sure Sabres need a Tkachuk, maybe but the definetly need a scorer, so I am trying to figure chances Nylandrr or Keller there with eighth.
  12. ok how do you imbed an image from a cell phone? no luck here
  13. Still need cable authorized channels meaning you still have to pay for cable. Screw NBC, NHL and stupid no a la carte high priced kow quality comcast and cablevision they suck Gonna be tough if Sabres make playoffs next year.. gotta figure something out.
  14. PS There appears to be an update as of last night that is going to allow NBCsports mobile app programming to be viewed for free including NHL games... NBC states the update fixes "glitches" in the app that prevented streaming. We will see???
  15. I did the same and couldnt agree more. I get most of my movies off netflix and dont miss ESPN wash rinse repeat news cycle. Cable wasnt worth the ever increasing cost paying for shiite i dont watch or dont need to have on. High Speed internet is fine, I just to watch hockey how hard is that to understand.
  16. Hulu allows it interesting will see how that works next during playoffs
  17. Its ESPN wtf do they know about hockey screw them.
  18. Exactly which one way to get attention is to give them some negative feedback which is why I asked about hockey boards on their websites. Well that sucks that the providers dont provide live streaming or individual a la cart stuff but screw em not paying for till its individual.
  19. So the point is we have to lobby NBC/Comcast or whatever the parent company is to provide live streaming. Are there any NHL discussion threads on NBC?
  20. For some reason I am blocked??? Do you have cable at home, I only have internet thru my cable co. And NBC asks who my provider is and then blocks me because I am internet only.
  21. Ah that explains it didnt realize they owned or vice versa ComCast guess I am in same boat. Thinking i could start it for a couple mos then cancel
  22. Has the lack of peime time playoffs and network TV as well as live streaming killing the game we all love. Me personnally would love access as a package thru the NHL via internet access to the playoffs. I only have internet cancelling my cable because it cost too much and not giving what I wanted anyway. But NHL streaming of games I love, so why not for the playoffs?? This thread was inspired by comment posted on the schedule announcement of the conference finals on The NHLs website https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-playoffs-conference-finals-schedule/c-280638428?tid=280202816 Discuss.
  23. Dumb marketing hits on fan loyalty, no one will care about other events there besides hockey. Eliminates name recognition, irritates hockey fans too. Dumb on many levels. Should call it Peg Place.
  24. Land of my birth, my bro lives in Albany, CA nearby Beserkely.
