Doesn't being ineligible for president also make you ineligible for VP?

It's kind of scary to think that this man could literally die any day and there'll be nobody to take his place.
I guess reality is stranger than fiction.
Because both of these groups are non-combatants in most of the world, particularly so in this conflict because Hamas is an Islamist organization. 70% (this seems to be the accurate number) of casualties being women and children implies 70%< of casualties are civilians.
Where have we failed?
You know how Europe is mostly ethnically homogeneous? Well thanks to European and American escapades into the Middle East they're becoming less ethnically homogeneous, and because of that xenophobic right wing rhetoric works on them a lot more than Americans. Add the post-covid economy and other legitimate issues where those immigrants can be scapegoated and Europeans welcome far right parties with open arms, because unlike Americans they're not inoculated against these ideas.
Someone might point to the result of this election, to which I say there's a reason people are angry at the DNC and it's because they could've won if they were actually trying. It's completely different from Europe where young people are shifting right.
Anyway what I wanna say is that this outcome was basically inevitable because in a parliamentary system like in most European countries the government will be too moderate to stop it.
Huh? He entered the primary twice so he was definitely trying to get things done but there's only so much you can do in a corporate-controlled senate.
Are you just looking for something to get mad about?
Still might be enough regenerative braking from just the weight of the truck though.
In that case no, because it'd be bringing the weight of the truck and the ore with it.
Huh? What the actual fuck?
Just in case anyone is wondering, this is a fringe right-wing party with one seat in Japanese Parliament's lower house.
Yeah the article explains why not going was also part of the no win situation.
Because all their parents (for good reason) hate their guts, and because Israel likes to pretend they're a European country.
That's only for presidential election (and even then it's a debatable position); there's definitely a space for established independent senators and representatives. See: Bernie.
I mean literally read your second link.
Yeah why tho?
But, from the videos available, it seemed like the explosives had very limited radius, where even people standing next to the targets were not hit or even knocked over!
It's not about being knocked over; these explosions created shrapnel and that shrapnel created tons of injuries. We don't have numbers because nobody bothered to count, but these were still bombs. There was no way they were not going to harm hundreds if not thousands of innocent civilians.
So I wanna point out that while mathematically with FPTP a two party system is inevitable, which two parties aren't decided. They can and do get replaced.
These people should indeed be paid a livable wage, but that's only half the problem. If they're gone nobody will take their place. This is backbreaking work that your average American for good reason simply won't be willing to do.
Uh... This is California.
Yeah I'd argue it was the most precisely targeted attack possible on such a scale.
Maybe, and then the conclusion is don't attack anything on such a scale.
By that logic nobody would be allowed to run on foreign policy.
And I thought I was extra for using a rooster sound.
I don't know literally anything about Waltz but is he that progressive? This is the "Israel has a right to expand its borders" guy so that's unexpected.
They're trolling the US because why not.
Why? I've heard a lot of bad things about the Taliban, but being heavy polluters isn't one of them.
Oh yeah my bad there. I've seen enough "there was no problem with Harris's campaign" takes that I kinda default to that.
To respond to the actual point you made, let's first forget about any comparisons to Republicans because that's just not the point here. After that I wanna establish that Biden's administration is, by all means, an exception. He ran on an explicitly left-wing platform that Bernie had a role in creating, and despite still being a corporate democrat did things that actually helped the working class. Compared to his campaign Harris ran on "nothing will fundamentally change" and straight up said she didn't have anything in mind that she'd do differently from Biden regarding the economy. That rejection of change, which shaped her campaign as a whole (the economy is just the most egregious example), is abandoning a working class who desperately needs change. Add in how Harris explicitly tried to court Republicans and we have reason to believe the DNC intended to shift to the right rather than the left, again abandoning the working class.
Haven't seen one of these in a while.
If you think the DNC is doing what it can to improve people's lives then you either live in a different universe or haven't been keeping up with politics the last few decades.
I mean it is the status quo. Israel's current move will only make the "facts on the ground" official.
Well... Shit that's concerning.
I won't speak to his personality because again I don't know anything about him, but I don't think being a woman had much to do with Harris losing. If she was a good candidate she'd have won because her opponent was Trump; and if a man with the same positions and attitude had run they'd have lost for the same reasons she lost.
Uh... Am I the only one worried that proto-slurs are being upvoted on the Fediverse?
I mean to be fair it probably wasn't necessary until last Tuesday.
And wages might be growing, but are lagging far behind inflation.
To be very fair real wages grew during Biden's administration, but probably not enough and definitely not for everyone.
These union workers don't have an economic anxiety
My man I'm sorry but this is the stupidest take I've seen this month. The whole country is anxious about how they'll pay their bills and the Democrats offered nothing to help with that. Trump made (false) promises about the economy and that's how he won.
Um... Union workers voted for Harris. Like seriously look it up before speaking.
most importantly creating a culture shift away from violence that comes from within the Israeli population.
Yeah probably not happening. Remember that both Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan needed to be occupied and forced to undergo this cultural shift.
America have now twice ran a female candidate against trump, and twice lost. People forget that trump did not run for president 3 times. He's run for president 5 times.
Uh... He literally didn't, though. He participated in two primaries before 2016, but he never actually ran as the presidential nominee for any party. Trump won twice and lost once, and coincidentally that once was the one time the DNC ran a serious candidate with a real platform that appealed to voters against him. The similarity that the two times they ran fucking jokes they were both women is simply not anything more than correlation here.
Uh... That's not really the point here. There are people hunting FEMA workers there for... reasons, so while we don't have the whole story I doubt this was a politically motivated decision as much as one made for self-preservation.
Uh... Seriously look up what political scientists have to say about this. Israel uses too much, well, everything compared to what they can produce themselves.
And how is that a bad thing? Israel wouldn't be able to do this shit if the US wasn't protecting it from its neighbors.
