DNC & Trump

I know he didn't get much into politics but a lot of things are reminding me of him.

Senator Amy Klobuchar of MN even gave him a shout out when casting her states' votes. I busted out in tears.

Apologies if this is misplaced. All of the sudden it's feeling like April 21st again and I just miss him.

It's not out of place. Remember the "lost interview" in Rolling Stone, published after his death?

Prince talked about having a woman President, saying (paraphrasing) "haven't we men had enough chances"?

I think he'd love tonight. He got a shout-out last night from the MN delegation, also.

I'd wish Prince would talk about politics (i knowww he's JW and doesn't vote blablabla shaddup) more when he was alive, I could see him giving some props to Bernie Sanders since people like Cornel West, Danny Glover and even Rosario Dawson supported his campaign. Sorry i'm still sad over this. Personally tho, I'd take Jill Stein over Hillary as 1st female president. don't roast me pls.

Just know, if Prince wasn't a JW and has a political view. He would be a Republican /or Libertarian. idk since isn't he 'supposedly' anti-gay marriage & pro gun control? confused

I thought I read somewhere that Prince didn't vote? Don't think he would appreciate all the divisiveness going on now.

Cool of the MN politicians to give him a shout out. cool

Weird, I read somewhere in the org that Prince donated $2000 to a Minnesotan republican senator Rudy Boschwitz in 1990?

He's a conservative even back then. while i do agree that he wouldn't approve of whats going on in this shitty election year...

No. It's from a company in Mexico city. Not Prince.

Like everyone, his politics were a mix.

Someone should never be elected just becuase of their gender. It's values, policies and competence that counts. In fact we all know how highly trustworthy the Clinton's have proven themselves to be LOL.

.

Afterall, the outgoing president was voted in for the wrong reason and he failed and achieved anything and now he has left a huge mess behind. Surely we have learned our lesson!

.

Maybe the voters are to blame. People who don't understand politics should not be allowed to vote as they vote for the wrong reasons.

The OP wasn't asking about your beliefs. This is about Prince's. BIG difference.

But you couldn't be more wrong. So there.
