HIgh Schools now banning MAGA hats!!!!

Who knows? The fact is that making unverifiable claims about oneself in an attempt to gain an advantage in debate is fallacious.[/QUOTE

They are verifiable if one cares enough. I doubt anyone cares enough but they are verifiable.
 
"Bad faith speech"? Another made-up concept by LV426. I do not want to limit anyone's free speech--again, you do not read carefully.

Sure you do. You just said so yourself:

Just keep our mouth shut and let everybody freely express their political views without fear of being attacked.

So you want to limit others' free speech to accommodate bad faith speech.
 
Just take a look at this idiot...LOL!

Self-identifying as "an Asian-American" in order to bolster your argument? :nono:

My status as an Asian American isn't crucial for the argument. You can check the exit polls and confirm what I'm saying is true about Asian Americans generally. Every racial group other than whites saw Obama as the stronger candidate, by quite a margin. The whites, on the other hand, did what they ALWAYS do: they voted for the white guy.
 
As you know, you're misrepresenting your subjective opinion as fact again. You know it, and I know it. Try to focus and reread the thread. :rofl2:

The facts are exactly as I stated them. Your racism doesn't alter reality, no matter how much you wish it would.

Democrats have not won a majority of the white vote in a national election since the passage of Civil Rights.

Is that so? That's appalling.

It's kind of interesting when you look around at election results, even at a state-wide level (including presidential primaries, plus gubernatorial and senate elections). The tendency for the white majority to back only white candidates is extremely strong. Even when a black person wins such a race, it's usually despite losing the white majority. For example, in 2012, in Virginia, Obama won, but among white voters, it was a 24-point gap in Romney's favor. Similarly, he won New Jersey handily, but lost the white vote by 13 points. Same in Florida, where his overall win came with a loss among whites by 24 points. In New York, Obama dominated in 2012, but among white voters there, it was a 49/49 split.

There are some exceptions, of course. For example, I lived for a while in Massachusetts, where the white majority backed a black governor twice, as well as Obama twice. But it's interesting how seldom white people can bring themselves to vote for either a black person or a Democrat.

You mean your unproven claim to self-identify as an Asian-American. If it's irrelevant, why did you try to to establish it?

I'll understand if you can't explain, of course.

Polls again?

So you say. As you know, you're unable to cite any instances of "racism" I've supposedly committed. I know it, and you know it. Try to focus and reread the thread. :rofl2:
 
I've never even heard of the Niche rankings. I guess it's a bit of a "niche" offering. Check the US News rankings, which are the ones people actually care about.

I've seen no proof that you attended Princeton or earned a degree. As you know, your pathetic attempt to assign status to yourself is intellectually dishonest. Try to focus, and reread the thread. :rofl2:
 
They are verifiable if one cares enough. I doubt anyone cares enough but they are verifiable.

How would that happen on an anonymous Internet forum?

An argument from authority is a fallacy. I prefer to leave self-aggrandizing claims to others.

I didn't try to establish it. That's not going to be practical here without compromising my privacy. I simply mentioned it. You can take or leave it as you see fit. It doesn't really matter for the argument, since the persuasive force in the argument isn't the reaction of one individual, which might just be a personal eccentricity, but rather than tendency across a broad population. You can see that tendency in the exit polls.

That's easy. You've pushed the absurd notion that Obama owes his election to his race, despite the fact that all of American history stands as a testament to what a big handicap his race is for candidates. It's your racism that drove you to take such a patently foolish position.
 
Yes. What you need to realize about us smart people is that we like to marshal facts to support our arguments. You'll have to take my word for that.

I don't have to take your word for anything. That fact is that exit polls are nothing more than individuals telling pollsters whatever they want to. Nobody knows how individuals actually voted. I know it, and you know it. Reread the thread and try to focus. :rofl2:
