| After reading many of the political posts it astounds me how many Hillary supporters there are on this website
For you that are going to vote for crooked Hillary Unless you are extremely wealthy I hope you realize the luxury of having horses and barrel racing will not come easily. It will be a different dynamic when she takes office. Not a good one. Your freedoms and Liberty will come at a much higher price. You folks need to seriously pay attention to the monetary ramifications of your vote. In addition I would hope you are savvy to the ramifications of your children's/families future. |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | No doubt a Hillary presidency will be profoundly impactful on all aspects of our lives....not just our hobbies. That's the least of our concerns, as I see it.
First and foremost is the makeup of the Supreme Court.
She will be the accelerant toward further propelling our country into Statism. The 65% inheritance tax looms as the most direct, grotesque threat to family farms and ranches. We all know a lot of farmers and ranchers who own land worth a lot of money, but are struggling to get by, pay the bills and operating costs, and still keep the operation alive. Few of these farmers and ranchers will be able to come up with the money to pay this inheritance tax, and many will be forced to sell it off.
Most people are witnessing the financial horrors of the grotesque escalation of premiums due to ObamaCare. It's no secret how Hillary plans to remedy this........single payer.
The list goes on.....open borders, a "New World Order", and so forth.
But let's stick to the most critical issue, as dictated to us by the establishment and liberal MSM......35 years ago he was too horny in an airplane. We mustn't allow him to be president! |

You are right. The majority of BHW folks are conservative. I did read some posts that went the other way and that's what prompted me to initially do the post. One Hillary supporter is one too many!
Vote Trump  |

In my part of the world the farmers are decidedly democrats - many are still planning to vote for Hilary.
Surprisingly, the biggest, richest Mexican-American family in our area is also democrats and even though they have kids in the armed forces, they will still vote democrat, even though I pointed out Bengahzi to them.
My son's employer is an oil field company and many of the M/A were going to vote for Hilary until my son and his boss pointed out that under Hilary, they probably would lose their jobs. Now they say they are going to vote for Trump. |

Location: Kansas | Never ceases to amaze me how many people fail to vote, then gritch and moan about the administration. Evidently Hispanic "stars" staged a show yesterday on the border urging their countrymen to vote for Hillary unless they want to lose the benefits they so love here in the U.S. Funny how they wave the Mexican flag here in the U.S. but don't want to go back to the country they need to build on and support. That's the way it works folks.

Location: lone star state | I don't think barrel racing will be anymore if Hillary is elected. I'm concerned that basic life as we know it will be very different. We will become a third world country. The electoral will vote for Hillary because they are worried about their own interests and are being paid by Hillary for their votes. Popular vote really doesn't matter at this level. With that being said I do vote every single election. I think America will soon be focused on basic needs; not luxury or entertainment. Russia is ready for Hillary. I think they will make a move very soon in 2017. Of course our media isn't reporting on things going on in the world right now because they would rather ignore real life and focus on made up drama! |

Location: Florida | The fact that Russia is hacking emails to try to sway the election to their BFF Trump should make every American sit back and wonder why. It is not Hillary Clinton who will turn this country into a dictatorship. I do have one question: when Trump loses by a mile and his supporters call for a revolution, who exactly are you going to attack? |

Help me here. My brain has a hard time grasping liberal.
How do you excuse the treason of your candidate , but because she isn't Trump?
Not attacking just would like to hear an explanation |

LOL You wish, the D format didn't even exist when I was winning rodeos. But to answer the previous question: How can you call the actions of someone hired, by someone appointed by someone advising Clinton treason? Under your rules every president would be in jail. A reality check is in order. As far as emails, same thing. Do you think that Cheney should be guilty of treason? He did the same thing. I am voting for what is best for this country in my opinion.

| Warning. I have lots of time to fill the next three days.
Liberalism and the notion have invaded every aspect of American life. So many on here are set to condem the government, but are all for buy backs and equal pay out. I have witnessed things on barrel racing this year that would have previously been beyond belief. The sad fact is that most cannot see the forest for the trees. Free everything sounds so good, just like people winning as much on a slow horse as one that is two seconds faster. You cannot condem one and support the other without some degree of hypocrisy. Soon we will be a nation of equals just like the libs want. Equally poor and hungry.

Boy, you got that right! There are some on here that I really disagree with about certain things or find them morally compromised, in my opinion, but you know what, I seem to agree with them on other things and look for their posts. They make me think and move me out of my comfort zone. I learn a lot on here and I find other peoples' viewpoints educating, insightful, disturbing and/or eye opening. We are a pretty diverse group of people, and I am glad we don't agree on everything.  |

I could care less about the e-mails, it is a diversion. I do care about the fact that the Clintons have stole MILLIONS through the Clinton Foundation under the illusion of "Humanitarian Aid." Check out the Haitian President begging for an audit of the Clinton Foundation-----they never saw the millions that ON PAPER, supposedly went to them. People talk about character---granted, Trump sure has his faults, but capitolizing on anothers misery is about as low as it gets. Then you throw Uranium One into the mix and the whole Clinton Foundation is such a sham----just a way for them to filter money for political favors. |

Location: OH | Furthermore, it is not one person or one party, it is the whole system that needs fixed. Until we fix a sustem where public servants can write laws without feeling all the heat from the people who give them money for reelection---nothing will get solved. TERM LIMITS---that is the ONLY solution. |

Location: Florida | When Talmage Green first came down to Florida in the 80's with the idea of the D's format I said, this will ruin barrel racing. Why would anyone work to get better when they can make money being mediocre? Equal money in the divisions is just plain wrong. If you want to win more money get faster.
