First Black President Or First Female President? This should be good:)

Hilary Clinton for 2008...yes or no...why?

2007-02-20 13:26:32 · 16 answers · asked by Nataℓie 2 in Politics

No double entendres, please.

It occurs to me that I know many conservatives - me being one - who disagree with some of Bush's actions while still believing him to be a good President overall. For instance, I really dislike the way he's handled the budget, and I'm not happy about his approach to illegal immigration.

I can't, however, think of similar issues where liberals have expressed disagreement with any of Clinton's policies. So, libs - educate me. Was Clinton your idea of the perfect President? If not, what did he do wrong in your opinion?

I am a U.S. citizen. My fiance is not. After the wedding we want to visit the U.S. but live in her country. Do you think we should go through the immigration process even though we won't be living in the U.S.?

I'm an extremely brilliant 8th grader and on my way to high school. I want to get my undergraduate's and study law at columbia university. I come from a poor family, so I need a scholarship. what should i do in high school to get it? I know it's kind of too much to hope for, but I have mostly A's in school and I think I might have a chance.

I would really appreciate any advice that anyone could offer to me; I know I am a little too young but I think it is good to get a head start on things.

I was married in June of 2006, as of Feb 20 th 07 we still have not received our wedding video. We paid up front 2k. Every time we contact him he says he is "backed up" or " a couple more weeks" He did not even respond to our last phone message. Contract does not specify date of completion, but does state we can purchase master video after 6 months. I think This would imply that video would have been done at 6 months. Are we screwed because contract does not specify date? Do i have a case to threaten him with small claims court? Even though no date is specified, would the courts hold him accountable? What is to keep him from taking 2 years!

Do you agree with republicans that the American people can be spied on and searched with out warrants? Or do you agree with democrats that it is clealy breaking the constitution and your personal rights?

The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 or Patriot act was strongly supported by John Ashcroft, who was the United States attorny general under George W. Bush in his first term. This act is also supported by republican senators and representatives. It was signed October 26, 2001. I could explain what all this did but that would take way to long so here, It stated that the United States goverment could spy or track anything from computers to phone calls, it also said that the United states could search you house with out a warrant, which clearly breaks the constitution. Research to find more on it. So do you agree or disagree?

They come and harass family members hoping to be attacked so they can sue for insurance money the family receives. I heard about this today on the radio!!! I should not be shocked; but I am. There are some unbelievably scummy people on this planet. There is a group who goes out to the funerals and creates a circle around the family to protect them from these people. Check out the web site. A lot of the members ride motorcycles but you do not have to ride to be a member.

I've seen many instances when someone is put in prison longer for stealing than killing.

Isn't killing way more condemnable than stealing?

Is the government sending a message that there is a price to human life?
