Where were you in 2000?

In 2000 people who thought Gore was not good enough to be president voted for Nader and get of all us Dubya. Hope this time it's the other way round, people vote for Johnson instead of Tramp.

Hillary was 45 when Bill became president, 53 when he left office and 69 now (born 1947). It's been 15 years since Bill left office, oh my how quickly time passes.

CNN is getting heat about the accuracy of its poll showing Trump leading. That's OK, people have to grasp what a Trump win would mean in order to vote for Hillary.

If Remain had

Now that the ref is done and over with, it is worth doing an evaluation of the Pro EU - Remain campaign.

I remember debating hordes of Eurosceptics - Kippers about the EU all the way back in 2005 in the European Commission's Online Forums.

Where were pro EU Britons then?

It is evident the ref was going to take place as many as four years ago. Who started campaigning then, especially online?

Much like the Swedish Euro ref, the pro EU - Euro side started way too late to win.

In the UK, the pro EU camp relied on the offices of the European Commission and the European Parliament to do "PR" for the pro EU side.

The other reason, was complexity of the messages. The Leave side spoke to the hearts, the Remain side to the brains.
