Personally, I don't think candidates should get Secret Service protection. Being able to survive on your own should be part of the test of becoming president.
Before you can take the seat you need to spend 8 weeks during wintertime alone in the wilderness of the Grand Canyon without any tools.
p.s. eating eagles is forbidden

Which is probably why we should have elected McCain.

But he had to take that *** lunatic as a running mate.

They also have to make their own clothes and weapons, and skewer their opponents with a handmade spear made from a stick and a piece of obsidian, last one standing becomes President.

I miss the days when monarchs fought their own wars right on the vanguard. Wait, what were we talking about again?

Back when flying cars were the dream, not the sad reality that the *** Prius is what we got instead.

You really want people to have flying cars? The same people that manage to wrap themselves around guard rails, trees or go up the wrong side of the interstate for miles without noticing?

Ah yes. Today in local news, a grandmother nosedived her 2015 Toyota into a school full of children. Terrorism has been ruled out. Investigators believe grandma had a heart attack when she saw how high off the ground she was.
Obviously, we'd build car catchers over schools and school playgrounds. Who's pay for them? Car Companies!
ftfy

Your joke was bad and you should feel bad!

Sparth, Sparth, Sparth. You're not paying attention.

I don't want flying cars.

I want the dream of flying cars to be alive and well. That sense of hope and destiny of something great!

...what I'm saying is that I hate the *** Prius.

Country could stand to use some inspirational people.

Of late it's just people talking about how everything has gone to ***and theres nothing we can do but clutch our *** real hard, click our heels together three times and say "there's no place like home" hoping this terrible nightmare ends and we're all whisked back to the Beaver residence.

I miss the days where people died from dysentery and gangrene. Built character. And more importantly, made beer lifeblood.

Better yet, each candidate should spend a winter in the great Canadian wilds of Saskatchewan, looking for those great rolling hills they claim to be known for...

And then fight to the death.

I long for the days of looking a horse lovingly in the eyes before you get down to business butchering it for food because the winter provisions weren't enough.

Alternatively, I'd suggest to Trump to attack Russia in winter. Builds troop morale. Also builds a great boot soup.

I said in the thread earlier but the 1950s is what most Americans are waxing nostalgic about when they want 'great' America back.

America just won WWII, the minorities were in their place, women were still getting slapped around and we had factory jobs still!

MAKE AMERICA 1950 AGAIN.
The '50s were my childhood and early teens. It was a much better and kinder time than today. Even the prejudice was kinder and gentler.

One of the things that made it great was the top marginal tax rate was 91%. Of course there were gazillions of loopholes but the vast majority of those loopholes were for things that members of both parties agreed were good for the country. Today's loopholes benefit corporations and the wealthy, not society as a whole.

No, so they freeze to death. Or get apologized to death.
Or succumb to alcohol poisoning and die.

Edit: Or so they can get mobbed and stampeded by a group of frozen, blindingly drunk and apologetic Canadians.

The parasitic hairpiece on Trump's head hasn't been rated for that temperature. It'd have to detach and kill the host. Most unfortunate.

I'd like to say this is serious hyperbole, but I'm only like...80% sure of that. Need to find more coffee to shove in my face.

Seeing as how pretty much everything said about Trump is hyperbole, 80% seems like a safe bet.

This is the end all be all of the matter, you can only cry wolf so many times.

#nevertrump is gonna blow it's load prematurely.

Nah. Each candidate needs to spend 6 months in a depressed town, where they must pay all expenses with income not to exceed minimum wage at 29 hour a week. Will give them a nice perspective to how the other half of the country survives.

And watch that not only do they survive, but also come out in a better position than those who actually live in those conditions.

Because we don't need to have the latest gadgets or vehicles to survive, but somehow those with the tricked out Mustangs tend to be below the poverty level.

Reminds me of my time living in Arizona and seeing some of the people there living in trailers, barely able to make ends meet... but gotta have that HD flat screen, brand new truck, and plenty of beer.
