Peter Gagliardi Thanks for your comment and insight. They are already making payments under the PILOT Program. The central question is how do we calculate what their fair payment is? That is the central issue in Scranton right now.

Peter Gagliardi Thank you for your comment, it is very relevant. Your comment reflects what millions of Americans believe. At this point in history, however, we need to go in the opposite direction. The challenge of our generation is to talk to each other and to learn to...

Peter Gagliardi Thanks so much for your comments. I agree that the media needs to look at the situation objectively and fairly, and leave their ideology behind.

Peter Gagliardi @NJChicaa I never said that they visited yesterday. I did not edit the post so I do not know what you mean by the original post.

According to the Washington Monthly Newsletter, voter turnout in the upcoming election is a major problem for the Trump Campaign and the Republican Party. That is why we are discussing it here. The Newsletter states that "Donald...

Peter Gagliardi I think you are right. There are very few undecides that are up for grabs at this point. Voter turnout is the key to success. The party that is most determined to win, will get their vote out. I think Trump needs about a 90% turnout to win, and mobilizing...

Peter Gagliardi Average might be a little low, but I think it is OK for a power hitter. I think it would be exciting to see him play in a hitter's ballpark like Wrigley Field. How many home runs could he hit?

Peter Gagliardi Thanks for the comments, I appreciate it very much. Politics is a strange game and unusual things have happened on both sides of the aisle. They said Presidents Carter and Reagan could not win and they both won. President Reagan won by two landslides even...

Peter Gagliardi It depends on how you define the term. She is holding onto her conservative values and trying to do what she believes is the right thing to do under the circumstances. Whenever a Republican disagrees with the Republican Establishment, he or she is accused of...

Peter Gagliardi Thanks so much for the e-mail. This is the scenario that could propel her to the top. For whatever reason, President Trump does not run in 2024. Now the Republicans are looking for new ideas, new people, and candidates with a wide appeal. They will need...

Peter Gagliardi To answer your question, I think it works both ways. Some people develop their ideology after they listen to the media. I think most develop their ideology, and then use the media to reinforce their views. Then then become biased and do not grow much....
