wasn't 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...



As opposed to Bush? As opposed to Lieberman who ran on Gore's liberal
ticket? Almost all politicians waffle.



Like I've said before, I am not a fan of GW Bish...Gore needed Liebermann
on his ticket becasue he (Gore) is so liberal that moderate Dems needed
something to convince them of the ticket...it wasn't enough and look what
happened..Gore is way, way too liberal....




Not for me... and, if the Supremes hadn't installed Bush, we wouldn't be
spending $100s of billions in Iraq, we would be safer, and the world
would be better off. I'll take liberal any day of what has transpired.


And besides the World Trade Center, the capitol building, the US Postal
Service, the SuperDome, the Statue of Liberty, and Amtrak would no longer
exist and we'd all have anthrax or worse...



This was all on Bushco's watch... while he was on vacation probably.
