born with that ability.


U'm not a particular fan of either GW or Cheney so it doens't make any
difference to me...or for that matter, Bill Clinton..I'm gonna jump on
the Ralph Nader bandwagon...

Well, that really was just a vote for the Bushco crowd last time.



No it was a vote for Nader. What is with Democrats saying that they
didn't
so much lose to Bush as get screwed bby Nader. If the Dems could have
gotten
a good strong candidate then they would have won the election. Instead
they
choose these non-threatening kind of wussy little guys. Americans don't
like
that. Americans like tough guys. As much of an Environmentalist as I
am I
could not bring myself to vote for Kerry. He is too much of a giant "V"
for
me. I don't think I am alone in this thinking. Democrats like that
sort of
guy and so I will never be a Democrat.


What we really need to do is ditch the 2 party system...I say go back to
a Parliament...with a Prime minister rather than a President...gets rid
of the whole popular vite vs electoral college vote dillema and makes it
so that other opinions can be heard in government..also allows for the
common man to have a chance to stand for his cimmunity...we'd have to
ditch the House of Lords concept and keep the Senate intact but change
the way the House functions..



I don't think I like this idea... you're right about the 2-party
system... we just need reasonable 3rd party candidates... Nader wasn't
one, and in my opinion it was a throw-away vote. I don't know if it would
have made a difference in the last pres. election, but it didn't help and
look who we got. I voted for Kerry/Edwards, but was never highly
impressed with Kerry. The lesser of two evils was my reasoning. However,
now we have a chance to vote for Hillary or McCain. I don't think Obama
is quite ready yet... another 8 years, then.... g


I don't like McCain..he'a an angry person and tires to rule by
intimidation...I do like Giuliani...if you can make sense out of that hash
called New York, you can make sewnse out of almost anything...as much as I
would like to see a woman in the WHite House, as President and not as bed
wench, Hillary just deosn't do it for me...I like listening to er and
think she is an intelligent person and on the private sector, if we met I
would probably like her..i do not like her politics, though...I liked Joe
Lieberman before they made a mess of him but this country would never vote
for a Jew for President...and at this point, that would just inflame the
Arabs to the point of total uncontrol...Edwards is too much in the hands
of money...the guy I really liked won't run...Mark Warner...




She's very middle of the road these days and very pro-military.

I never liked Liberman, and I thought Gore made a mistake picking him as a
running mate. He's too much of a follower in his politics.

"these days"...that's my problem with her..she waffles...
