    He really wasn't my choice. But given A or B.... and A is

    > than B by a huge margin..

    I voted for A happily.

    Stop the corruption, protect our Constitution (especially 2nd Amendment), stop

    the do nothing game playing and cowering in fear of the extreme leftwing marxist brownshirt

    obaMaoTseTongue sombeitch.

    Trump, with warts, was the ONLY choice to save our country from ruin. The mindless left can take their

    glorious vision of world conquest and shove it.

      Would Trump have won the GOP nomination if he hadn't switched his position on abortion from pro choice to pro life? No way.

      Pence proved his worth in the debate with Kaine where he destroyed Kaine in the VP debate.

      No, but when millennials become the majority things will be different.

      If the special snowflakes I see on college campuses today with their safe spaces and PC lunacy are the future of the country we are in deep serious trouble.

      And then this, from the University of Michigan 😁 : "There was a steady flow of students entering Ms. Boynton's office Wednesday. They spent the day sprawled around the center, playing with Play-Doh and coloring in coloring books, as they sought comfort and distraction."

        That you "see in college campuses", or that you read about on right biased websites?

        The burning desire of some on here to paint all of college with a brush of the worst parts of liberal arts in attempt to discredit academics never gets old ...

              I'm not saying it doesn't exist. Just that:

              - you aren't "seeing" it. Sites that know their audience are finding it, making it look a little worse, and getting you to click on it

              - this isn't the norm throughout college academics. Using this to discredit the institution as a whole doesn't work.

              - I'm sure I could dig through those links and pick out what's incorrect or not even that bad.

                  The Reason College Students Are Using Coloring Books

                  The recent antics at the nation’s universities have led people to expect almost anything from academia. There are safe spaces that resemble adult playpens where students can shield themselves from β€œmicroaggressions.” There are trigger warnings to help students protect their politically-correct sensitivities from free speech. And now… there are college student coloring books.

                  That’s right. College coloring books with colored pencils or felt pens are now the rage as administrators scramble to find ways to help students de-stress. Ironically, students who break all the rules at campus protests find solace in staying within the lines. The old-fashioned coloring book, perhaps one of the few undigitized things left, is going viral. Students, who try to pass themselves off as twenty-one-year-olds to drink alcohol, are eager to assume the role of five-year-olds when it is time to bring out the crayons.

                  This is not a marketing fad like the adult coloring book rage. Rather, official university policy is fueling the student coloring experience. These are not isolated colleges but campuses nationwide, including Ivy League schools. While there is yet to appear a Coloring 101 course, university employees are the ones handing out the coloring books and holding β€œcoloring events” on campus.

                  American University, for example, provided coloring sheets on campus, explaining on its Facebook page how coloring β€œcan help with a number of emotional and mental health issues.” The Facebook page of University of California San Diego reported on β€œDe-Stress Coloring Nights” before finals last semester with all materials provided. In 2015, Brown University offered coloring books (and Play-Doh) in all its β€œsafe space” rooms. The University of Missouri handed out an official Mizzou Coloring Book at its student union. The University of Nebraska-Omaha organizes regular DeStress Fests at the university library with large turnouts. All of this is done in the name of therapy.

                  However, college officials have got it wrong in offering this therapy. The purpose of university education is not meant to be therapeutic but formative. The university should concerned with the pursuit of truth, and not the stressful acquiring of knowledge and facts for future careers and debt repayment.

                  The university is meant to form character in students and prepare them for adulthood and family life. Students should be exposed to a philosophy of education in which they are taught to confront reality and overcome obstacles they will find when they live in the real world. The university should be a place of culture where the classic insights of the great thinkers of the past can benefit the present. College should mark a farewell to childhood and childish things. It should be the exhilarating embrace of independence and adult responsibilities.

                  Instead, many modern universities have adopted a philosophy in which the college coloring book is but a sad sign of the times. It is the fruit of a Hollywood culture that resists the natural need to grow up and assume responsibility. Many students aim to live forever-young lives of frenetic intemperance, in which they are encouraged to desire everything, instantly, and effortlessly. They defer major decisions about what they are to do with their lives, and see college as a mere extension of their adolescence… or perhaps now a regression to kindergarten. When young people fail to live up to the responsibilities proper to their age group, they will indeed become stressed. Hence, the recourse to the therapeutic coloring books.

                  However, the coloring book issue is also symptomatic of a university system that has lost touch with its purpose.

                  The chief object of the university should be the teaching of truth and its applications to life. Modern universities have strayed from this great mission largely because so many believe there is no truth. Indeed, truth has become whatever one believes it to be at the moment. Values are whatever one happens to value, and a person is whatever he/she/it self-identifies as.

                  In short: Everything is fluid, constructed, and subjective. In modern academia, there is no objective truth or any applications of that truth. There are only isolated experiences disconnected from truth. Students are immersed in what Notre Dame Professor Brad Gregory has called β€œthe kingdom of whatever.” The university has gone from the search for eternal truth to the pursuit of personal experiences, from the consideration of forever to the acceptance of β€œwhatever.”

                  When education becomes β€œwhatever,” it works against its purposes of character formation and the teaching of truth. It will naturally frustrate and cause anxiety. Instead of finding a divinely-ordered universe bristling with variety and purpose, students are presented a sterile, godless universe devoid of meaning. Is it any wonder that they are offered fantasy-filled coloring books in which they might color their own β€œwhatever” worlds?

                  Of course, the descent from classics to coloring books appears absurd to most people with common sense. It seems like a bad dream in need of a rude awakening. But it is not a dream. It is happening. The tragedy is that students will find out all too soon that the only way to deal with life’s vicissitudes is to confront reality not to color it away.

                    Sweeping generalizations about colleges, college students, and millennials. Great stuff.

                    You know what would happen if someone in one of my engineering courses asked for a coloring book or to delay an exam because of the election? They'd get laughed out of the building.

                    Not to mention, Michigan (rightfully) cancelled their play doh thing.

                      Also look at all the students protesting a legitimate election in a democracy. What are they wanting to accomplish? A do-over? It doesn't work that way. And for all the hand wringing and sky is falling drama coming out of the left with Trump's election in four years he will be evaluated on his record and there will be another vote.

                          The "news" sources you frequent actively look for this stuff to constantly being it up. It makes it look much worse than it is without ever giving time to the counterpoint. You think liberal media made Trump look worse than he is, right? Same principle.

                          And again, the guy you voted for called for protests when Obama was elected in 2008. Just for some perspective

                              Between you, me, ed, cysko, osiris, basically everyone else under 40 that could maybe called millennials, is anyone actually anything close to an arts major? Like, English lit, languages, humanities, anything like that?

                              I took 3 credits of humanities at Michigan. That's it.

                                We needed 16 credits of HU/SS, at least 6 humanities and at least 3 at 300 level or higher.

                                AP credits covered most of it, luckily. It allowed me to work one winter semester for Honda

                                  Did you have to take a foreign language? I forgot I had to take 3 German courses. In hindsight, I wish I had taken spanish. Would help me to understand all of the illegals who have taken over this country due to Obamao.

                                      Exactly, I doubt Woody would know what to do when confronted by a bush.
