There is a huge field of candidates from both parties. However, the media only seems to be focusing on a few candidates. More media time could dramatically improve minor candidates chances of winning. These candidates, such as Gravel, Kucinich, and Ron Paul, are largely ignored in debates, and rarely invited to debates. These candidates are extremely qualified to lead the country, but are dumped in favor of more widely recognized candidates. The only place these candidates seem to have support is the internet.

She always has to speak up or speak out for him. He seems very timid. She seems to have a bigger set of walnuts then him. I bet Hitlery would hate that with a passion. What say you.

Considering how well spoken our President and Miss South Carolina are, perhaps she can find a job in the Bush administration?

Gosh, there's so many to choose from! Personal advisor, press secretary, Attorney General, speechwriter, vocal coach ... the list goes on and on.

What job do YOU think she is best suited for? Answer quick!

...and then pick it apart, connect the dots and through reasoning form a conclusion?

Or do you accept it at face value?

At a joint press conference with Australian Prime Minister in Sydney earlier today 5 September, 2007, in response to a question from a journalist named Susan, President Bush insisted on her calling him ‘cute’! ‘I am cute and I want you to call me cute!’ Wonder if Laura Bush was around listening to his suggestion!

At the same press conference, looking at the Australian Prime Minister standing next to him, President Bush said ‘I am a beef person’ and added he was looking forward to tasting Australian beef!

As if I were a 2 year old...

I will be entering at the bottom of the corporate ladder. I have noticed a lot of libertarians are for both the gold standard and the abolishment of a minimum wage, as well as a free market system. If this were to happen (hypothetically) how can you promise my corporate bosses wont eat me alive?

Appreciate it.

Answering another question gave me the thought to ask this question. What would you say are the 10 most powerful countries, in order influentially, or overall. By that I mean a combination of their diplomatic status, their wealth, their military force, their trade relations, their production, their influence over other countries, their resources, all of those things and anything else you can think of.

Thinking about it, I've come up with a list of countries which would be logical without any order. Just some of the world's more powerful countries in my opinion.

USA
Russia
China
India
Iran
Saudi Arabia
Israel
Britain
France
Germany
North Korea (who supposedly have the 5th largest military on Earth)
Japan
Pakistan (Nuclear Capabilities)
Canada (Oil reserves)
Nigeria (probably the most powerful country in Africa)

This is just speculation on my part though, I don't have any facts supporting it. I just want to see what you guys think.

So I find out that an old friend of mine has used my name while being arrested. Now police are trying to say that I have an alias of his name with his extensive criminal record. After speaking with the police department that made the initial arrest, they told me that nothing could be done and I would have to get a card or something that states the name mix-up. Thats the most bull I have ever heard. There has to be some type of legal action I can take against them for being so incompetent to let someone use someone elses clear name with no ID to prove it, and I know there has to be a way for this to get cleared up. This is all in Michigan if that matters.

My girlfriend wasnts to be a nude model for the softcore porn site suicidegirls, which I feel breaks the intimacy of our relationship. Don't get me wrong - I want her to follow her dreams, but I just dont agree with this choice. Im not going to try and stop her, this obviously isnt something I can support her in.

you are considered to get out with honorable discharge in this case. or what about Convenience of the Government were they let you go when they want you out but dont have a reason to kick you out. both are honorable discharges so would you still have to pay back the bonus money? or do they say no because an honorable discharge is like saying you fullfilled your duty and were a good soldier. i dont know and am asking.

If Kennedy shot a jew would that mean it was alright for Bush to shoot one? Do you not understand eugenics and who supported it in this country?

Why do people (usually the same people who insult "bleeding heart liberals") insist on saying that those who dont support the war are unpatriotic? Since when does wanting our soldiers home safe mean we are unpatriotic or not supporting the troops? I just dont see the rationale behind this, and I have seen plenty of people here on YA saying mean things about liberals, I would just like to see the reason behind these sayings.

He said today he's considering un-resigning, along with his plan to un-plead guilty.

Is he also planning to hunt down the guys he met, and un-do what he did with them?
