Howard Stern May Run for President


Great news! He wants to make America fair. One vote per person. He will get rid of the Electoral College. He will also get rid of the religious kooks on the Supreme Court since three were appointed by someone who most Americans didn't vote for.

Will you vote for Stern?

reply

I dont think democrats are (all ) dumb enough to vote for populist figurehead moviestar celebrity types.
So he'd probly just split the vote and lose

reply

He's an Independent, but I believe he'll run as a Republican especially if Trump runs. When he ran for governor, it was as a Libertarian which is really a Republican.

Democrats are too passive and mainstream Republicans too cowardly which are the reasons far-right extremists have taken over the GOP and dictating policies that most Americans don't want.

Stern is intelligent, aggressive, outspoken and knows how to handle the media. Even if he isn't the final nominee, he can do plenty to help with a clear message and refocus direction.

reply

Really?

They voted in a roided up Austrian as Governor of California.

reply

good point .
i wasnt sure which side Arnie batted for .
i retract my point

reply

Arnold is Republican , Democrats help vote him in , but wasn't the majority

reply

Did he happen to mention how he was going to accomplish this? Does he know the President isn't a King?

reply

"Adding justices only requires a majority vote in both houses of Congress and the president’s signature. If all are controlled by the Democrats, the apparent conservative majority in the Supreme Court could very well be erased."

Biden could add judges now unless Manchin and Sinema get in his way.

As for the Electoral College, the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is the best option. Democrats are dragging their feet with this. Stern could make it a priority.

Biden has made it clear he's against adding justices to the court and it wouldn't even remove any that are already on it, as Stern wants. And I don't see getting a majority in both houses as realistic. Even with Sinema and Manchin in favor, it would be an endless uphill battle.

And the abolishing the Electoral College would take a Amendment, also not realistic. Stern is full of shit, making promises he could never keep. I guess it doesn't matter though because he's not going to run. He's a shock jock with far too many skeletons in his closet to run as POTUS. It's almost as stupid an idea as The Rock running.

reply

The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact isn't an amendment and is doable. We're 75% there. A few more states need to sign on.

There are no skeletons in Stern's closet. He's said pretty much everything on air. Stern wouldn't be passive like Biden. I like California Gov. Gavin Newsom as a candidate, also.

Anyone can run for president. Stern doesn't have to win. He can bring certain issues to the forefront and create support for his agenda. He can also hurt Trump or other candidates during the campaign. Stern, like Trump, understands media and how to use it to his advantage.

Jesse Ventura became governor.

Trump's 2016 run was a publicity stunt to get more money from NBC. He didn't expect to win. Never say never.

reply

If you're just trying to open dialogue into these issues, fair enough, but Stern is without a doubt full of shit if he thinks he can accomplish these things because they're incredibly far fetched. Him running would be a clown show and we don't need anymore clown shows. We need serious candidates for 2024, preferably a non-celebrity who isn't in their 70's. Just my 2 cents...

reply

Stern said he will run only if Trump does. It's clear that Stern's goal is to ensure only serious - and sane - candidates run for 2024.

BTW, anyone can run for president including you if you're American and over 35. Usually, there are over 100 candidates, but they don't get any publicity. I remember Gary Coleman running one year.

I disagree that those goals aren't achievable. Good leadership and strategy are everything.

reply

Baba booey for VP?

reply

Stern is like an too ugly for tv version of Jerry Springer, he is best known for being a soft core pornographer paying hoes to ride dildo machines for his radio show. nobody cares what this libturded jew thinks and nobody will vote for him

reply

"libturded jew"

He's not a Liberal.

You're an anti-Semite.

He was doing pretty well when he ran for governor. He didn't have a serious campaign yet won the Libertarian nomination and later polled at 20% and growing when he quit the race.

reply

getting 20 percent in a fringe party means nothing when ur a famous celebrity

reply

You misunderstood. He won 75% of the Libertarian vote to be nominated for the party.

But, in the governors race, he was polling at 20% without campaigning. He had three very modest goals and was going to step down after doing them. One was not having work done on the highways during rush hour.

reply

who cares he is a slimy pornographer, not a good person representing our society in politics

reply

"he is a slimy [pornographer], not a good person representing our society in politics"

Take 'pornographer' out and you've got Fat Donnie Trump.

reply

Donnie might have his flaws but at least he did a lot of great things like filling the supreme court with pro life God fearing patriots that reversed the evil Roe v Wade ruling and saving millions of future unborn lives. Godbless Donnie he is a flawed but heroic man!

reply

The U.S. is not a theocracy.

reply

its a human rights issue, it has nothing to do with religion. the laws in place to punish first degree killers have nothing to do with religion. it has to do with making a far and safe society for ALL PEOPLE! it doesnt matter how powerful you are, if ur a human you deserve basic right regardless if your inside or outside a womb. a woman killing her own kiddo is worse than a woman killing their husband or friend and should be punished accordingly to prevent and dissuade future murder of innocent babies

reply

"It has nothing to do with religion."

"God fearing"
"Godbless Donnie"

You already admit that it does y contradicting yourself.

If it were about saving lives, then you would support banning military weapons and allowing fleeing immigrants from terror to enter the U.S.. You would support more housing for the poor, more social services and national healthcare to keep people healthy and alive.

You would support paid abortion when a woman's life is in danger.

reply

just because i thank God for the restoration of a moral good society doesnt mean it has anything to do with religion. like i said once before this is a human rights issue not a religious one. murdering people is illegal, murdering kids is the most evil form of murder yet libturds love it for some reason. liberal commie governments can genocide millions of people efficiently once the citizen lose their GOD given right of the 2nd amendment. taking away gun rights is infinitely more deadly than having a pro gun FREE society that the government fears. once u become an unarmed peasant ur in complete subjugation of the elite running the show. my grandparents survived the Ukrainian purges and lived their whole life in fear and terror of their own government. my parents sacrificed a lot to immigrate here and give me the 2nd amendment right of being born a free man. u can come for my guns, but u best be ready to fight to the death. i will die a free man, i will die an Murican!!

reply

No freedom exists when you want to turn the U.S. into a theocracy and refuse medical care to millions of women based on your imaginary friend in the sky beliefs.

reply

murdering a little tiny kiddo isnt medical treatment its pure evil. the scumbag piece of shit doctors that do this evil are devils who serve satan, their time will come one day when they face God and have to answer to their sins! they will stay in the deepest, darkest, most devilish ring of hell for all eternity. u might be a sad Godless soul who thinks u are above it all and can do whatever you want without consequences but God will cut you down one day too!! repent!! repent before it is too late, for the sake of your poor wretched soul...

reply

I knew you were a gun nut who supports killing schoolchildren with military weapons.

reply

by that logic u support the genocide of hundreds of millions of victims of communism including countless poor children

reply

You can't preach about innocent lives and support gun culture.

BTW, thou shalt not kill! You should be a pacifist like Jesus.

reply

its a sick world, pacifism is nice on paper but this is a world of scarce resources and much greed and evil. if u give up ur guns u give up ur life and liberty

reply

I don't see the Amish making excuses. You're a hypocrite who doesn't really care about saving lives.

You only want to control women's bodies.

reply

no i want to control the evil society that normalizes and celebrates the murder of poor innocent kiddos simply for the sake of convenience. its up to the woman to control her own body and keep her legs closed if she isnt ready to procreate. i want to control the murderous doctors that have no regard for human life, not women, it is their responsibility to control themselves not mine. murder is murder, regardless how weak and insignificant the victim of the crime is...

reply

Fat Donnie was an illegitimate POTUS but at least he is a legitimate POS.

reply

OY VEY YOU BETTER SHUT IT DOWN.

reply

GROSS.

reply

Definitely! With Beetlejuice as Vice President.

reply

LOL Props to anyone who knows who Beetlejuice is.

reply

I knew you were not living in Slovenia.

reply

I do. Slovenia has Youtube you know

reply

Nonsense! You're American.

Btw, Bradley Cooper will be Stern's running mate

reply

Ne nisem Američan ti levičarski idiot. Slovenec sem.

So how can I prove it to you?

reply

So you want a liberal kook who will shred the Constitution through unconstitutional acts of treason? Got it.

reply

Stern isn't liberal.

"kook who will shred the Constitution through unconstitutional acts of treason?"
That's your cult leader Trump.

reply

He is a fucking liberal and he's a piece of shit without morals.

No, dumbass, everything you outlined in your OP would be an unconstitutional act of treason.

reply

Obviously, you've never listened to his show, therefore you don't know anything about him.

You've clueless about the Constitution.

reply

I watched his show 30 fucking years ago. You millennial Googlers, you're so funny.

"You've clueless about the Constitution."

Said the person who suggest a whole slew of unconstitutional measures.

reply

You watched a radio show? LOL!

reply

I guess you're not old or smart enough to know that his radio show used to be on TV. Thanks for proving you're just a dumbass kid.

reply

His radio show wasn't televised 30 years ago.

And then heavily edited with only highlights. I know you didn't "watch" his show for 5 hours every day.

He supported both Dems and Reps candidates. A real fan would know that.

reply

Uh, yeah, it was. A real fan would know that.

I'm not a fan, because he's an immoral douchebag. I watched him because it was funny. Not someone to be taken seriously.

reply

"I'm not a fan"

I wrote that at the outset, but you wanted to argue.

Like I also wrote, you know zip about him including his political leanings.

reply

I knew everything I needed to know about Stern before you were an itch in your daddy's pants.

reply

He's an amoral, piece of shit, reprobate, liar. Just like you. Delete your account.
