The only reason Goldwater lost to Johnson was because of people's reaction to JFK's assassination.
That, and the extremely effective scare campaign that the left-wing propaganda machine mounted to convince the public that Goldwater would start a nuclear war. Pierre Salinger was a scumbag.
Starting with this bullshit from someone who's never worked there:
“Apple’s culture is one that’s so negative, so strict, so harsh,” said Knight, a talented 27-year-old coder who left a job at Google for more lucrative freelance work. “At Apple, you’re gonna be working 60-80 hours a week and some VP will come yell at you at any moment? That’s a very hostile work environment.”
I've worked at Apple three times, starting back in 2002, and nobody ever yelled at me. VPs are too busy to go around doing that shit. As for the 60-80 hour weeks. that's a myth. We put in long hours when a deadline was close, but it was never a constant grind like that.
Tim Cook has fucked Apple up since he has been in charge and he needs to resign.
You're an idiot. Tim has done a brilliant job of leading Apple, and they've grown at an incredible pace for a company their size. I remember people like you saying the same thing about Steve.
(no XSan, no XServe, no rack-friendly models [1].),
FYI, that whole market just isn't big enough for Apple anymore. When they stopped making the Xserve and Xserve RAID, they were already the #3 storage vendor, and they were about a year and a half away from becoming #1.
The scarce resource for Apple is engineering time. When the same guys could be developing an Xserve or another iMac, it's not a hard business decision to put them on the product that sells in million lots instead of the one that sells in the low thousands.
A lot of groups at Apple used the Xserves themselves, and they're sorely missed, but it's just not possible to justify diverting the people to make them now.
Glad to see one of the benefits of market pressure. Yellow Cab has been a lousy vendor for decades, and they were protected by the medallion system. Hats off to Uber for blasting that cronyism business model to pieces.

Alphabet is catching fast as AAPL goes down in price.
Apple could pull the rug out from under Google anytime by making any other search engine the iOS default.

Apple needs to become much more price competitive if it is going to succeed in today's marketplace.
What does the word "success" mean to you? Where I come from, a company that's making more profit than any other company in the world is successful.
Got any more idiotic comments to share?

Either Trump or Cruz is the next Goldwater,
That's highly disrespectful to Goldwater, who was a man of principle.

I can think of worse labels to get.
You seem to have missed the fact that "George McGovern" means "loser".

What's your next guess, you tragically obvious Hillary campaign minion?
Read and learn.

There is no evidence.
The denial is strong in this one. Not to mention ridiculous.
-jcr
The only one that will profit from this is Bernie Sanders.
Nope. If she gets put away, his chance to be VP does, too. If he gets the nomination, he'll be the next George McGovern.
he hasn't been touching the email issue, probably because it's contaminated.
He's treating her with kid gloves, because he wants something from her.

we see so few of them at Reddit
You must not be going to the same Reddit that I do. I see no shortage at all of trolls on reddit.

My own leading suggestion: no more AC posting,
Fuck you.

So, does that mean an end to the SJW bullshit we've been seeing lately?

So basically you've just said he's right and no-one was buying it.
You fail at comprehension. Try again.
A product that's making enough money for a smaller company to keep around is not the same thing as a product that's worth Apple's investment.

Apple has development groups in Pittsburgh, Paris, Cork, and somewhere in China, I forget which city.

People like you said the same thing about the Apple CEO from Pepsi
Nope. I gave up on Apple when they canned Steve, and I became a NeXTSTEP customer in 1989.

Spoken like someone who has no idea how much effort Apple puts into recruiting.

XServe died because it was useless and nobody was buying.
Incorrect. Xserve was a great product line and it made money, but it just wasn't big enough for Apple to keep around.

You can't be thoughtful or educated if you really believe that
This is what's known in rhetoric as an ad hominem argument. What it proves is that you yourself, are neither thoughtful nor educated.
Basic literacy precludes
And for all of your posturing, you don't even know what "literacy" means.
The proper response to an "argument" like yours, is "Go fuck yourself: my right to self defense isn't negotiable, motherfucker."

A gun has to work when you need it.
The real purpose of the "smart gun" push from the leftards is to get people to accept unreliable weapons. Fuck that noise.

I didn't call you a liar, I called you intellectually dishonest.
What a thoroughly weasely excuse. Are you a lawyer, or a less specialized asshole?
Fuck you, and the bitch that whelped you, too.
