alright phi beta kappa man statements like this are too partisan and are the reasons our world is so screwed up. thank you for adding to it.

Yeah more incoherent babble from the bloviating extremist may I join

All the republicrats shall rue the day when Rudy Sharpton takes office and the totalitaians from the left and the communist from the right will pay for their originization of free government.

See,
I disagree with that.
If Hillary would have won the Dem nomination, me and almost all Independent/unaffiliated voters would have voted for McCain!

The ones who didn't would have voted for a third party candidate!

and add this as well

like mccain would be any different. you didn't see joe leiberman switch over to the repubs real quick so he could pull mccain by the nose ring? and guess what? hillary and obama have the same beliefs. they hang out in the same circles.

So what's your solution T2d?

Dont say I never asked!

is that an honest question? or are you just trying to set me up for a driveby emoticon?

That's an honest question!
First you say Obama is no good, and now you say McCain is no good.
You've said many times that our election process is no good, so I ask.
What's your solution?

Umm...I think you forgot about the other ethnic groups that live here and the city folks too.

I thought it was Jesus who left no footprints????

brb

no I didn't...I just said...that this country is center right...middle to upper middle class...white...and...suburbanites...meaning...the majority...

well I guess we'll never know...although I think Hillary would have won by a bigger margin...but...what do I know...as for Obama and his footprints...don't you find it strange...that theres still somewhat of a debate about where he was born ?...I mean...how hard is it to produce your original birth certificate...although I usually stay out of that whole debate...it does make ya' wonder...top that off...with the fact that he never revealed his college transcripts....why ?...listen...I'm from Chicago and so is he...and...I can tell you...that this is the most sneaky...sly...double crossin'...back stabbin'...grease my palm...corrupt...political town in the entire country...and this guy was raised by the Machine...right on these very streets...look at most of his policies...he didn't run on this crap !!...thats the whole Saul Alinsky aspect of his upbringing coming to the forefront...

my theory would be boring to democrats and republicans because they wouldn't have anyone to side with anymore. we as americans have gotten too use to just accepting things the way they are. say for instance, do you really think obama was the best man in the united states for the job? i don't think any of you could trully agree with that statement. in the whole usa there has got to be someone better suited for the job than bush or obama. the only problem is that we have gotten too use to accepting the presidents they put forth for us, and voting for the lesser of the two evils has become the norm. it shouldn't be that way. we should have more say over who gets to be a presidential candidate and it shouldn't matter how much money they can pull together. that leaves a certain wealthy class to win everytime. and we definitely should have a president that has enough guts to get rid of the federal reserve. john f. kennedy did but he got killed a few months later. i can't express it enough how necessary for the good of our country that we get rid of the federal reserve. i think that there shouldn't be democrats or republicans, i think there should be americans not divided by partison malarky. i would love to see for three weeks everything be completely non partison. it would be amazing, but its already been indoctrinated into us.

All politicians suck, period. It is time for this country to stop being divided and stand as one to oust the politician out. A fresh start is what this country needs.

Give Obama a chance?? In first three months he has done more damage than any President in history. Of course no one remembers that it was the Clinton's that thought everyone in America should have a home forcing the banking industry to give loans to those that did not deserve them.

Democrats and Republicans alike have come to represent Socialism. It's time to take this country back towards democracy where it belongs and tell the politicians it's time they stop violating our bill of rights and constitutions amendments. It is time to tell them the American public will not stand for the gross misuse of power. Tell the we will stand as one and not be subjective to their demands against our constitutional rights.

I agree with that so much it scares me.
But in the meantime we have to vote in ways that have a possibility to open a few doors.
Like voting out many of the career politicians!

Obama is the President, and while we don't always have to agree with his policies we should at least give him a chance to accomplish something. Maybe even open a few of those doors.
By not giving him a chance then we are being self defeating.

We are all Americans and our situation, as Obama found it, requires us all to stand together. For the most part with Obama.

If not then we have already failed and America will fail with us!

We have what we have, and you cant impeach the man just because you dont like him!

That's a toughie, the all-too-real kind of situation that can make one of an enterprenurial bent lose sleep at night.

I'll try to give you my best, honest answer, but it may take a little disucssion to hash out the variables. Let's assume the general case, ok?

I'd probably be like Steve Wozniak of Apple fame and when and if it got to that point, try to sell out to someone whom I was fairly sure would have the best interests of the people who stuck with me through the tough times, to leave knowing they were in good hands. Then I'd take the proceeds and look for more opportunities, trying to pan the silt for gold, as it were.

See, I don't think government and taxes are nearly the enemy of business that they are made out to be. Not even unions, and not necessarily creeping socialism. What has done more businesses in has been the relentless parade of change as an entrepreneur we're almost forced to march in as if at gunpoint.

Equally as deadly is the theft of intellectual property. Chances are if you come up with something revolutionary enough to effect a sea change in the economic landscape, the theft of the idea from places like China will do you far more damage than a politician. If, as they say, 'It Lifts All Boats', it probably will wash yours ashore if you're not agile, mean and lean. BTW, that's one venue in which the government can be your ally.

And all this is eminently do-able. I'm working now at a place that survives due to diverity of opportunity and who tries to follow the Japanese inspired principles of Lean Manufacturing. We're holding our own.

All in all, it's knowledge of the pond in which you swim as to the locations of all its opportunities and dangers that keeps you in oxygen for another year.

Like Pelosi!

I have no power to affect her reign. I don't live in Calif and therefore I have no vote to use against her.
Calif does however.

If they would exercise that vote we wouldn't have to see her anymore, and she couldn't affect Policies.

If Americans would stand together and vote out the career politicians from their states, Dem or Repub, then they all would stand up and listen to the people. If not then bring in a new batch!

United we stand, Divided we fail!
