Lucasbalo:
I was surprised how magnanimous and humble Obama was when the racist elements in the Republicon party were calling him and Michelle monkeys

I know, right
He never called the likes of Fox News and Breitbart "fake news" every other week too.

I didn't support everything Obama did whilst in office (the indiscriminate drone bombing of Afghans, the ousting of Ghadaffi etc), but he had enough class to steer his White House in an orderly, professional way.
At the very least, people took his words seriously. Now, we have to double check and triple check whether our president meant what he said.

Who knows?

These voters still defend the Iraq War and blame ISIS on Obama. Let's see how they will twist and tweak this story.

I have to give it up to the GOP messaging teams. They did a particularly good job between 2010-2016 scaring people that Obama would confiscate their guns, and turn the US into a communist state.

Yes, Obama was re-elected, but the GOP cleaned other elective posts during his term of office.

Mindfulness:
I can only forgive remorseful people. Have you seen any of them here on this thread show any of it? I haven't.

Next time a caveman like Trump shows up, they will do exactly the same. But I am grateful nonetheless because Trump helped Europe unknowingly. His acts of of.olishness prevented many European countries from voting in demagogues. Brexit has done the rest.

Who would have thought that the US of A would elect such an anti-democratic mo.ron into the highest office? A country that fought Hitler and freed not only a country but a continent? A country who took pride in the upholding of democratic values? And who thought that Bush would look like a genius and meek sheep next to this lunatic?

What a shame!

Yet, someone was saying it's impossible for Democrats to gain control of Congress in November 2018. The numerous GOP Congressmen/senators that have been heckled at town halls is proof of a big political earthquake that would occur next year.

Trump has already damaged the GOP for years to come.

I'm ashamed of being nigerian. They'd soon come here shouting "Racism!" Stupid people, thieves.
I was in the bar yesterday and overheard 3 boys boasting of a successful scam. Everyone, yes every single nigerian, desperate and evil. They would do anything for money.
Nigerians are so shameless, everything written up there is correct. Even the "begging for money" stuff. We see them parading nairaland everyday displaying their shameless begging proclivities. The other day, it was a Nigerian that went to Richard Quest's twitter page begging for 500 dollars. Just imagine.
Enter american forums, you'd be seeing stuffs like "call (+234..)" Nigeria numbers full there looking for who to scam.
I wish i could strip myself and my kids off this Nigerian nationality.

I just shook my head when I read about the Nigerian who was begging Richard Quest for $500. Even if you wan beg, do am codedly via DM.
But some students are really in need of financial help, and their situation has been worsened by the fact that the Naira has, according to the New York Times, lost 70% of its value in the last 2 years. So, when some students are asking for N20,000 or N50,000 to complete a project or pay tuition, it's genuine most of the time.

To be the numero uno military in the world isn't baloney ! Massive respect to the U.S. military.

The US spends over $100 billion annually on its 800 overseas military bases/forward operating bases. That is money that could be used to fund infrastructural projects across the country...

All these come at a huge cost to American taxpayers though..

It reportedly costs $206,000 per hour to operate the 747s that serve as Air force One.

Politics › Re: Inside The E-4B 'doomsday' 747 Plane That Follows The US President Around by PDPGuy(op): 1:12am On May 17, 2017

The planes are outfitted with special equipment including a wire antenna that keeps the president in communication with the nuclear submarine fleet, even if ground-based communications are destroyed.

The E-4Bs were first operated in the 1970s during the Cold War. And through to the end of the war, one of the flying war rooms was kept constantly on alert at Andrew's Air Force Base, ready to lift off with the president in just 15 minutes.

It was believed that these planes were the best way to keep the president safe in the case of nuclear attack.

In 2006 there was talk that the E-4B fleet would be retired in 2009 when then-Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld announced his plan. Instead, just one of the fleet was retired in February of 2007.

When Robert Gates took over as Secretary of Defense, he reversed the decision in May 2007 and the plane returned to the fleet because the planes have such unique capabilities.

The planes also have in-flight refueling and are able to remain airborne and operational up to 35.4 hours. Though it has been designed to be able to operate in-flight for a full week.

The E-4Bs are operated by the First Airborne Command and Control Squadron of the 595th Command and Control Group, are coordinated by the United States Strategic Command and are stationed near Omaha, Nebraska, at the Offutt Air Force Base.

One of the planes is kept running at all times, with the engine running 24 hours a day at the Offutt base when the president is in the US. If an emergency happens, the plane is ready to meet with the presidents almost immediately.

If he goes abroad, the E-4Bs follow and are known to the crews as 'Air Force One When It Counts', according to Politico.

Politics › Re: Inside The E-4B 'doomsday' 747 Plane That Follows The US President Around by PDPGuy(op): 1:09am On May 17, 2017

The planes, also called 'National Airborne Operation Centers' when they are in-flight, have special equipment and have the capability to communicate with anyone from anywhere in the world and support analysts and strategists on the flight.

The design of the plane is meant to survive an electromagnetic pulse with all the systems intact, even down to the fact that they still use traditional analog flight instruments because they are less vulnerable.

It is capable of operating with the largest crew of any aircraft in US Air Force history, at 112 people, both flight and mission personnel. The planes all have three decks

from top to bottom: former US Secretaries of Defense, Leon Panetta (2012) and Donald Rumsfeld (2004) address reporters on board.

Politics › Inside The E-4B 'doomsday' 747 Plane That Follows The US President Around by PDPGuy(op): 1:08am On May 17, 2017

Wherever Air Force One is in the world, an E-4B Doomsday plane isn't far away.

There are four E-4B 'Nightwatch' planes in the fleet that are made up of specially modified Boeing 747s that follow the President of the United States, particularly when he goes overseas.

The planes are outfitted as complete command centers for the president and his top officials including the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the case of nuclear war or national emergency.

These aircraft have unique capabilities that cannot be duplicated by any other aircraft that the Air Force use.

I think it will be best if the other 4 Associations, and some other existing parties merge with APDA to form a big, truly progressive party. If that happens, the likes of PDP, APC, AD, Accord Party, and Labour Party may be the other parties left, hence, there would be only 6 parties which won't be a bad thing.

It didn't sound right that a new party would be requesting N50k/month as membership fee.

Even with a N300/month fee and the N2,500 plan, the party could realize up to N30 billion per annum

Politics › Re: APDA Members To Pay N3,000 As Membership Fee by PDPGuy(op): 9:15am On May 16, 2017

TonyeBarcanista:
This is highly malicious and gross misinformation.

APDA Members are NEVER told to pay membership fee of 50k.

Firstly, every member is to pay 5k registration fee.... That applies to everybody.

The STANDARD Membership category is N300 per month or N3000 per year. This allows people who wants to seek election at local government level and Ward level participate, but also allows people here to participate in participating in voting their candidates in ALL elections.

Student membership is absolutely FREE OF CHARGE save the N5000 registration.

There are other categories of membership but apart the privilege of contesting for a higher office than those lower, it grants no other special privileges. Everyone has ONE VOTE during primary and convention. Everyone has strong stake in the party, and there is huge discounts for youths and women.

For instance, I am under the diamond category, my membership fee is N25k annually or N2k5/month on basis that I am a youth (youth age is 18-35). Meanwhile, Men are to pay N250k annually or N25k monthly and women to pay 50% of it in same category. But I have equal privileges with people within this category though I pay 10% of what they pay as dues.

The said 50k monthly or 500k annually is for people in the highest category of membership, which is platinum.

You see, this party take cognisance of present realities and tries to ensure that members irrespective of status are part of ownership and finances. He who pays the piper dictates the tune. Unlike PDP and APC that depend on Yams from government ans moneybags to be funded, APDA depends on members so that nobody can hijack or forced to steal from public purse to sustain party.

Please see me on membership on www.apdanigeria.org

I'll correct the OP

An unregistered political party is asking prospective party members to pay N300 per month or N3000 per year as the Standard membership fee.

Under the Diamond category, membership fee is N25,000/annum or N2,500/month for youths (youth age is 18-35). Meanwhile, Men are to pay N250,000 annually or N25,000 monthly and women are to pay 50% of it in same category.
