Mexico, dont they realize they all are related and that all Indians of the Americas were descendants from the Clovis Culture and other ancient Western Hemisphere Indians?

Also why do some mestisos attempt to distance themselves from Mexicans saying they are descendants from Spaniards or Native Americans from the U.S.

I say a Mestiso is a Mestiso regardless if the white blood in him is from English ancestors or Spanish ancestors, same goes for the Indian part, regardless if their Indian ancestors were from North or South America.

I have heard the rhetoric from U.S Native Americans, and many Arizonians and New Mexicans. What they fail to understand due to their ignorance is that Bloodlines cannot be denied

I'm a dual UK-USA citizen and am curious to know how one can go about changing one's name. I have an American and a British passport. I know that theoretically, all Americans have the right to change their names at will, and in England common law allows you to adopt whatever name you want whenever you want, but what about the practical details? Is it possible to go by one name as a British citizen and another as an American? or does one have to change one's name in both countries at the same time? How does one go about changing passports, etc. I'm not necessarily going to do this. I'm just very interested to know how this is done at the present time.

President Bush's G.P.A. at Yale? Is this also why his "botched joke" excuse for his anti-troop slur made no sense?

Is America ready for a man called Obama for President? (Try changing the b into an s)
Is really important to have a man (or a woman) in the White House, to face crucial future and imminent decisions?
But...Do we have a better choice?

I moved out of my apartment in December, and now my former landlord is trying to get me to pay $1500 for new carpet, new paint, and a bunch of other things that really didn't need to be done or that weren't damaged by my fiance and I. She sent the bill to a creditor, so now I have them breathing down my neck too. In Wisconsin, I thought legally the landlord needed to do a walk-through with the tenant before the tenant moves out completely. We were not given any walk-through and that seems quite fishy.

thats right DCA could be a miracle cure for certain types of deadly cancer but you and I can't get it. For one thing it can't be patented so no drug company wants to manufacture it.
The government won't let even terminal patients have it and it still has about 2 yrs of clinical trials. Why can't the government consider these terminally ill people as the clinical trials?

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16776882/site/newsweek/

If I had cancer, I`ve got to tell you, I`m not waiting the two years for the human trial. If this has killed these things, lung, and breast, and, what was the other, brain cancer, if it`s killed these things in test tubes and in lab rats, what`s going to stop somebody who has nothing left to lose from going and finding some of this stuff and taking it? Well, since DCA has no patent, that means it can be made generically from day one. No exclusivity equals no value. You know, I heard that today, and I thought, you know, once in a while, maybe capitalism needs to be reminded of the value of human life.

You can respect Rich, McCain and others as they open themselves to hostile questions.

Does Giuliani think he is going to spend 2 years just talking to his friends in the Fire Department? Typical Republican would you say?

Suppose you're an Afghan farmer. Your name is similar to but not identical to that of someone on a Terrorist Watch List. A nasty neighbor turns you in for the reward money.

The US has you in custody for five years now. You protest your innocence and demand a trial. But they do nothing. They let you rot.

THIS IS A TRUE STORY. There are more.

Liberals in America call for Due Process for ALL-- even terror suspects/ For thuis thy are accused of being pro-terrorist by right-wing oafs and clods.

I say, TRY THEM OR RELEASE THEM! PROVE they're guilty, don't assume it beforehand. Any other way is unworthy of America. (As are right-wing sphincters.)

Does anyone know about the requirements for SWAT? I have 9 years military experience, and I heard some departments require you to be a normal patrol cop for at least 2 years before trying out for SWAT.I was wondering if I could go straight to the try-outs I want to get some personal advice from someone that has actually done it before looking at the police department websites.

How do military protect themselves from hearing loss when shooting a gun(all kinds), both during training and combat? I was wondering because I would imagine it would be loud when a shot's fired. Are they allowed to use ear plugs during combat?
