Our elected officials are supposed to be acting in the interest of the people. Our elected officials are supposed to work together, and if can't agree on an issue, at least come up with a compromise that will benefit the PEOPLE. All I see is Dems and Reps more interested in getting the issue resolved to satisfy their party lines, and not to the satisfaction of the people.
I think we need to abolish parties, and start voting for the individual based on his stance on the issues, and his voting record.

Since illegal immigrants to the U.S. are most common in Southwestern states that were once part of Mexico (and Florida, which was once part of Spain), could we simply rescind the treaty(ies) that made those places part of the U.S. and return them to Mexico (etc.), thereby making the Mexican persons in those places into "persons in their own country" and the U.S. citizens in those places into "aliens"?

Marijuana is far less harmful a substance that tobacco, yet someone can light up a cig and expose me to second hand smoke that causes cancer in a bar, but a substance that a Harvard Study found that helps cure cancer is illegal?
Something doesn't seem right to me.

THIS oath: "and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

When he called the Constitution a "God Dam Piece of Paper" he lied under oath (same thing that they got Clinton for) and furthermore, isn't that TREASON?

Please, forgive me for I am not militant in any of the political parties, since unfortunately I don't vote yet. But I believe all true Democrats could feel as much wrath over Kerry's ineptitute and unwillingness to really defend himself back then, as they all did in the 2000 elections' 'irregularities"!!!

Isn't this salt poured over injury? Even if he were the only Democratic candidate capable of winning the Whitehouse, I believe he does not deserve it. He let so many people down back then. I couldn't believe his posture whenever those boat guys came up with their stories, and this man would not move heaven and earth to try proving them wrong?!!!

I'm seriously considering voting for a third party next year. I'm not voting republican, and probally not voting for a democrat depending on who gets the nomination. I also don't think its throwing my vote away, but rather voting to show both parties they don't represent me.

So anyone else feel the same? What third party are you thinking about voting for?

I believe that it should be, there should be specific debates, and a certain amount of ad time given to each candidate. They should not be allowed to buy more time, or be given more time on television. If they want to run around the country stumping they should still be allowed to do that. Also, the news should not be allowed to talk about on candidate more than another, if one is talked about for 5 minutes, they all need to be discussed for an equal amount of time.

They have accepted the terms of my insurance up until this point in my pregnancy, now they are saying that my insurance does not pay them enough for their services and may or may not see me through the full term and follow up care. Aren't they obligated to see me through to the end of this pregnancy and follow up before dropping me?
