**Cameron** , if you haven’t already read it, I suggest getting a copy of “Dark Money”. It’s a revelation as to not only the money laundering that goes on, but also about the infiltration of our universities by those who wish to push the “free market” economic model; a model that has been repeatedly been shown to be a complete failure. Along with this, there is a concerted effort by those same donors to make sure that higher learning institutions teach the most egregious of right wing politics. This is not wild-eyed liberal screed; this is well-researched and footnoted writing.

For the last several years, **Grrr** , anyone who posts anything remotely conservative on this board immediately has a target on their back. Age does not matter.

I don’t condone being jerks to conservatives simply as recreation, but let’s also keep in mind that the last few years have also seen the rise of Tea Party conservatism that is pretty much insane. To the extent that posters line up with total idiots like Louie Gohmert and declare proudly that they want to be considered as one with neonazis, Klanners, and so forth - as you did for reasons that still elude me - then you get what is coming.

Even guys like **adaher** who occasionally fabricate things, but generally know how to use his noggin, deserves a lot more respect than you.

Trump is still a birther.

Trump has tweeted over two dozen times in the past few years linking vaccines with autism. All tweets available online for the world to see.

So tell me. Is he lying? Does he really believe there is still some reason to push the notion that autism is in any way linked to vaccines?

This is why I wonder how people just dismiss this sort of thing from Trump. he’s our president and he’s concerned with the vaccine schedule and it’s relation to autism. I can believe he’s not lying but that makes him stupid (he’s had ample opportunity to rectify his ignorance). You are either able to accept this idiocy, you think he’s right or dismiss it as not a big deal. It IS a big deal though. How do you justify this behavior? Is it because it’s not an issue that really matters to you? Maybe this is true but it’s still important to ask yourself, “Is he lying or is he stupid?”

How do you justify it, new poster?

Well, if we’re voting (and a bit of this thread seems like we are), my two cents:

It’s very obvious a troll. Extremely obvious.

Would a troll back up his assertions with citations and links and fact-based arguments?

Don’t assume I’m a troll because I support Trump.

Yes, the rumor was indeed started by rogue, left-wing [Hillary staffer during her 2008 primary.](http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/sep/16/clinton-08-campaign-manager-admits-birther-connect/)

Mod believes it’s a troll. A step in the right direction. So should we start a pool for when the troll will be banned?
