Lyft is not as bad imo, if local govts tell them to shut down they listen, and they've been much more proactive on driver vetting and rider safety (eg lyft has a much higher % of female drivers and actively matches female riders w them, and their inspection processes are much more rigorous)

japan's fascism is more institutionalized but also lazier and more lethargic. korea's is vibrant and popular, and less institutionalized only because there's less of a governmental institution to begin with outside of the Park family

What should I read about Obama as a great campaigner? I think someone said in this thread that Obama is uniquely good as a campaigner.

Or something about Howard Dean's career as the head of DNC.

He never made a mistake. And he's also the best orator in a generation. And his campaign apparatus is the most effective one seen in decades, to the effect that it has acted as a blueprint for every serious candidacy going forward.

He also was the first national campaigner to really grasp the potential of "new media" and modern data management as important compliments to his strong traditional ground game, and managed to integrate them successfully without any of the hilarious mistakes we saw from his opponents in 2008 and especially 2012.

Clinton is already dominate and a shoe-in for the nomination and more importantly is the candidate that most of the Democratic voters want in the general election.

Trump is not a shoe-in for his nomination and is actively inflicting damage on the entire GOP the longer he stays in the race.
