    Hillary has probably met with 300 heads of state in her career. She's not going to flutter like a schoolgirl asked to homecoming when the president of fucking Mexico asks for a pow wow.

    And people say I'm just voting against Hillary, and have no reason to actually vote for Trump:

    Correct. She's gonna run it by Huma first and make sure he's current on his Clinton Foundation pledge ...

    She couldn't Dick. You know this. Literally could not without months of notice and planning. It had nothing to do with not being overeager to meet with him.

    You WANT 490K teachers fired?

    It's a joke!

    It's also from the Center for American Progress, whose founder is currently the Chairman of Hillary's campaign.

    I think we should probably take it with a grain of salt.

    So your argument for Trump is based in your hatred for teachers and public education. To be fair, Obama has been no friend to public education and I doubt Clinton will be one, either.

    That would be yours, tony, because you posted delusions that I don't think even you believe.

    This would be YankeeFan admitting that he wants to see large numbers of teachers fired without bothering to ask if those teachers are good at their jobs or not and without even considering the impact of the loss of those teachers on American students.

    There will be approximately 3.1 million public school teachers working this year.

    Since teachers are fired for cause at a rate of less than 1% annually, and the cause usually is related to something other than their teaching ability, do I think we could find 450,000 lousy teachers across America who we could replace with someone better?

    In this economy, when so many qualified people see teaching as a good, solid career?

    Almost certainly.
