I think that extreme conservatives are ruing America because they promote bias notions and further the polaritzation of the United States.

It seems odd to me that people say (even anti-illegals) that the blame is on our government or Mexico's government or Large corporations. I am not sure that we should blame anyone. People that come here know what they are doing and do so voluntarily. In my opinion, we need to amend the laws here in the US to allow more immigrants into the US each year and have them be of all social and economic statuses. So why are people still playing the blame game? Lets just fix it.

Do you think guns kill people, or people kill people?

I personally love shooting guns.

I act rather masculine for a female, but it's only to protect myself (from my dad, originally), and I feel guilty when I dress feminine. My co-workers think I'm a lesbian and ignore me, make overt religious statements, and/or just treat me normal. My supervisor thinks I have a crush on her, but I just ask a lot of questions. If anything, I'm an attention-seeker. How do I deal with the hostile types to the paranoid. I straight, and I'm secure with that, but some co-workers sit around and pass judgement. How do deal with them? How do I protect myself from homophobics who feel threatened without putting myself in an even worse position?

Right now I live in Oshkosh, WI and will be finishing my undergrad degree this next school year and I was wondering if either of those branches would make it easier for me to move south. Right now its not really possible because I would never be able to go on a job interview.

Be Honest

I think there would never be a black president since u.s is divided and simply because the country is full of racist and predujiced people.

To be Optimistic since colin powell and condeleezza rice (hope i spelled it right)were basicly 3rd to the president..

when i was younger I always wanted to be a president but now "If I was president,I'd get elected on Friday, assasinated on Saturday,
and buried on Sunday"

Some of us have to go to work now. Even though it's hot as f**k and it's Saturday night, happy to be going. Been out of work for 2 years due to illness, makes you real grateful. Later, don't wait up and don't hog all the best questions. :)

Has anyone over 25 out there gone through it? Do you find that it is harder than say if you went in at 20ish?
Is it co-ed?

All the Southern States like California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Colorado and up to Montanna was stolen from Mexico by the Americans through wars and ethnic cleansing. No ofense but America was founded by criminals don't they teach history in school(The real History),and know the problem is since the land was taken from mexico illegally mexicans know it's their birthright and that their indigenious to the lands,and it's not fair to kick mexicans off their native lands even if they crossed illegally because the lands were stolen from them illegally.

Mexico didn't recognize the indepence (and annexation) of Texas until it was forced to do so under US duress. the US did pay for it. Pennies an acre, and again, Mexico was forced into doing it due to the American occupation of the capital. And all of this after an invasion brought about by Polk on false pretenses.Alot of people think is right to say they should get out, Get out of were? They have more right than you and me.after all lets not forget this was their land.

Instead of voting(which can get rigged sadly) we do this:

All candidates must enter a chess tornament. The one who wins will go to round 2. The one's who have at least one once can also go to round 2. Sorry everybody else goes home.(this is in the likelyhood there are more than 2 candidates. If so there is no chess. Just the activity in round 2)

Round 2:

There will be a computer program that they must use. It'll be like SimCity only it'll be the entire country. There will be many natural disasters, problems that need to be fixed, terrorist attacks and how they should get sorted out, and also a budget.

The one that wins must be a good leader. The difficulty must always be on extremely hard as that IS how life is right?

There is no sure shot way to know a candidate is really all that good but this could be better than voting.

Of course voting does have it's advantages.

I had a tragedy occur in 05. I stayed living where I was despite not really belonging and I had no job. I took care of everything. Cooking, cleaning, driving everyone everywhere, etc etc. I did what a housekeeper or someone like that would do. I demanded no payment at the time. I was just 'helping out'. I had put 2 bills in my name, but the owner of the house was paying them.
I got kicked out for reasons that are still very unclear(the person just wanted to get rid of any ties to the 'tragedy' I think). But, the problem is that the 2 bills that were in my name(had them shut off as soon as I was able to) are way high. Both of them add up to about $2000. I do not have the money to pay. The person had said he would pay these but thus far has not paid a penny. I have it in writing in some rather mean notes. I was wondering if this would hold up in court.....?

The news says Israel is using chemical weapons the news says that Israel has killed more children than Hezbollah or soldiers the news says Israel refuses a cease fire the news says Israel knew the UN soldiers were there and ignored phone calls asking them to stop The news says that a percision bomb killed them and then killed the resuce workers

Finnally the Canadians coming home form Lebenon are telling us the same thing and worse.

Why is it that the US makes exscuses for Israel and why is that the US citezens are so pro war that they don't see the headlines.

What is going on here ............ Israel isn't looking that good and they don't seem to be able to stand up to any sort of srutiny so WHY is the US supporting them ----still?

It almost seems that way because most Iraqis did not care if the Candidate they voted for Won or Lost, they were glad they at least got to have a say in the 1st place.

However in America there are those (especially Liberal Democrats) who whine that elections were stolen when their choice of Candidate loses cause they cannot get over the fact that there are many people who didn't like the loser (a good example is Gore and Kerry were both unpopular).
