Hopefully none [2]
I don't think socialists understand how economics work, no offense to any socialist that reads this. |

he's the polar opposite of the tea party republicans who control our congress
if he did manage to beat hillary and get elected, he'd be pretty worthless as a president until at least the midterms when maybe the democrats might make a comeback |

i mentioned this a while ago
either we elect a democratic president and we continue having nothing get passed due to congress acting like children, or we elect a republican president who gets to reverse all progress made in the past 8 years
either way nothing's really going to change. the US will still face most of the same problems and people will begin to realize that whoever replaces obama wont be able to do much about them either, because believe it or not the president isn't the emperor and can't literally do whatever he or she wants |

| UK has pretty significant socialist systems that came out of the 60s. We're doing pretty well minus everybody wanting to emigrate here. |

''Countries with socialist policies are doing far better than us economically @lady''
A majority have much smaller populations, smaller countries.
In short, we're different and require different economic policies
