Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

great
now we will only have one option on the ballot to vote for depending on who my state supports meaning sometimes a person will get to vote between one candidate
how is only having biden or trump or both on the ballot dependent on what your state decides democracy
biden had a third party candidate chained to a chair so she could not debate with him

but only trump is a terrible idea
The fact that you're considering voting for an insurrectionist who promised to become a dictator and seek revenge against his enemies speaks volumes. There's no middle ground there.
not allowed to vote like some others because of policies and laws written by politician's over the coarse of their careers such as biden trump obama and many others that helped contribute
and the states now will dictate who is on the ballots now more than ever or not
where is the choice not even an illusion of one anymore
Other Republican candidates may still be voted for unless I've missed something and they're telling you there is only voting for Democrats?
It's a treasonous criminal you're not allowed to vote for because he started an insurrection. Is it that hard to understand?
They understand, they're just concern trolling.
The Republicans were the ones on the union side. Republicans wrote the 14th amendment. Republicans ratified it.
just need to put forward a candidate who is eligible.
Seriously Obama is not able to run again due to constitutional restrictions, where are these people complaining about that? All of a sudden applying constitutional restrictions to candidates is some huge violation of ou democracy.
You linked to someone being arrested for violating the law, by a group controlled by dems and reps, and without any evidence claimed that Biden had her arrested. Stfu with your lies.
That link is over ten years old dude.
He broke a law that says he’s now disqualified. I don’t care if he’s people’s choice he did it to himself.
Start a party. Run yourself. It's not some act of nature that only Biden and Trump are viable candidates
