Bernie won all the focus groups and online polls — so why is the media saying Hillary won the debate?
The same reason that Ron Paul won all of the Republican debates in 08 and 12 but was never credited for it.
People who have true passions and beliefs are so often .. well.. ignored.
The mainstream wants who they want.
And they don’t want Bernie, the same as they didn’t want Ron Paul.
The true match made in heaven for America would actually be the libertarian free wheeling Paul vs the man of the people socialist Sanders. That, really, would be a ‘choice’ ..

A brutal ritual where girls as young as 10 are forced to have their breasts pounded and burned with hot stones to disguise signs of pubescent development could be on the rise in Britain, campaigners warn.
Breast ironing, a process which involves using stones, hammers or hot spatulas to mutilate breast tissue, is often performed by mothers intending to prevent their daughters from being sexually harassed or raped.

THE PAST IN COLOR!
1928 AS IT WAS.. PHOTOGRAPHED BY A CLIFTON R. ADAMS FOR NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC IN AUTOCHROME..
And seen now.
IN the 21st century..
The past is amazing when you see it as it was..
History is funny like that. It does not seem real until you see it more like it was.. in real ways.. in color. As it was to people then.
Then it seems real.
Very real..

'Phubbing' is ruining American relationships
According to a survey of more than 400 individuals by Baylor University, 46.3% of respondents said their partners snubbed them by taking to their phones, or “phubbed” them. And 22.6% said it “caused issues” in their relationship.
I never heard this term until today.
I’ve been phubbed before and may have phubbed back..
It hasn’t ruined my relationships but it apparently can be a killer of them.
Unless you’re in love with your phone.
Phub away.

I hate fish tanks, except this one
I hate fish tanks, except this one
I dislike the work and hardships that come with fish tanks. Not only the dead fish who wash up to the top, but the endless cleaning.. endless power eating.. endless work. But I would make a sacrifice, as would my wife and son, if we could get this amazing fish tank: The work they put into it was tough. So tough I wouldn’t do it. But I’d buy it.. The video here:…
