One of the screwiest things about how the Senate works is with the filibuster rule. The phrase "majority rule" is meaningless, and Government is unable to do anything if one side wants to prevent all progress. So true. Personally I am sick of the well organised vocal minorities dictating policy agendas to the generally complacent silent majority. .....the squeaky wheel gets oiled! |

We have enough dumb people voting already, they're called liberals! |

Some truth to the OP, but it doesn't go far enough. There should be a test before acquiring a voter registration-comprised of economics, US history, civics, and political philosophy. Not, because what I consider stupid may not be what you consider stupid so who gets to decide who is stupid and who isn't? Me? I have some real qualifications for ya. Live in an all white neighborhood and ya can't vote. Would be a nice one for regulating out those white racists from the polls. Too bad for those who are guilty by association or circumstance. That would weed out some problems at the polls. Or if you make more than 250,000 dollars a year, no vote. Because you are too biased towards the rich. That would eliminate some problems at the polls. I will classify all of these people as stupid to fit into the stupid restrictions you want. See how easy it works..... It would stop people for voting for someone just because they are black. |

Actually if you read it, it would eliminate someone voting for a president just because he/she is white. But it was to make a point. |

actually it would stop people for voting for any physical appearances
white black yellow skinny fat bald long hair business cut hair one arm no arms or legs even should vote for ideas not looks also negative ads cost votes usually when it comes to my vote....if they have no better reason to get my vote than to bash the opponent then they must be worse prospect for the job but hey what do i know |

Voting for Presidents for looks? Has anyone actually looked at our Presidents? More likely for familiarity and names. Oh gag me are you people serious with the looks thing? Ye gads people. I think this thread just lost all its marbles.

It would stop people for voting for someone just because they are black. or just because they are 'republican' or 'democrat' or just because they were in the military or just because they are smart or just because they are not smart( or what they would say was 'real') ...truly, I doubt many people vote for someone just because of any one thing, and anybody who does does a disservice to their right to vote I bet people vote for the person who seems MOST likely to represent what is important to them,,,,end of story |

The president doesn't have to run any negative ads. He is a shoe in as long as he can keep his believability. His opponents don't have any credibility.

time will tell, I dont think there is any guarantee until the candidates begin to answer questions with their own mouths,,,
then the odds diminish greatly..... |

America was in love with Jackie O. She made JFK......not that America wasn't enthralled with the Kennedy family.......and honestly Geroge W. Won because of Reagan and they were giving his daddy a second chance and for the first time ever in history the electorial college votes beat out the popular vote don't forget Kerry was actually America's fav choice in the end when it was counted bush just got the bigger electorial votes and honestly if this happens I believe the peoples vote should be the actual victor in this.......Clinton won because he rocked the nation....dukakis was just a idiot in the media eye...... |
