He could have just donated the money to build a school for the impoverished children in his district.

We understand that he has ambition to go higher in life than just a superstar boxer. He can do a lot of things without going into politics.

Why has he been so naive of his limitations outside boxing?

I'm curious for all parties, if you had to cast your vote, who would you vote for...I'm doing an informal poll for a class. Keep in mind, we could all change our minds before it actually happens, but if you had to vote today from what you know about the candidates, who would it be.

Please keep it civil, I'm just curious.

This woman chasing mean old bald man give's a few speech's after 9/11 and people call him a hero??? oO A hero doesnt take 100,000 per speech he would do it for free. A hero would champion his family not destroy it by cheating. A hero would not try to move his mistress into his home before he was divorced with his wife still living there. This man is the moral compass for the republican party? That is very amusing to say the least. I hope he does get the nod from the GOP so I can watch another canidate rip him to shred's in debate's. If he is a hero im a bearded gnome. TY GG!

Who is Barack Obama?

Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in
Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black Muslim from
Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white atheist from Wichita,Kansas.

Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii.

When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father Returned to
Kenya.

His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a radical Muslim From Indonesia.

When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia.

Obama attended a Muslim school in Jakarta.

He also spent two years in a Catholic school.

Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim.

He Is quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but that he also
attended Catholic school."

Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that Obama's
introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was
temporary at best.

In reality, the senior Obama

People like John Edwards think that our policies have failed to keep us safe, but this seems counter to the evidence that in the last almost six years there has not been a successful terrorist attack on our soil (though recent news about Fort Dix and JFK airport suggest that they have formed plans that failed). Could someone please ask him this question at the next debate? I can't imagine any reasonable answer. He'll probably throw out more slogans like "bumper sticker" and evade the question.

That's what I think. What do you think?

He's going to win. Hillary won't get the nomination and the Republican field looks like a group of pedophiles.

Do you know who Ed and Elaine Brown are? They have boycotted income tax ....the courts could not find where this is legal tax.

Gas taxes pay for our roads, local taxes pay for education, and corporate tax pays for the military. Our government operated just fine for its first 200 years WITHOUT an income tax. Then later the income tax was needed to support the brilliant idea of government taking loans from the private Federal Reserve that can print money out of thin air and then charge our government billions in interest on the money when our government has Constitutional Authority to tender its own money interest free.


We need Ron Paul, that is why he wants to abolish the fed and IRS.

He seems well educated, and he seems like he would make an excellent president, and I definitely would vote for him, however, do you think that him being black will hurt his chances at being elected president?

Okay. By now most of us has heard of the Presidential candidates in pursuit of 2008. By now we all know the heavyweights. Hillary, Barack, John Edwards, Guiliani, McCain, Romney. Now let's look at the scenarios. First of all, Edwards and Romney are running third fiddle. So they are out of the way. Next, McCain agrees so much on things with Bush such as Iraq and illegal immigration that conservatives may not look his way at all(take a look at the recent polls.) Obama has only been in Congress for two years without much of a record, which will hurt him. That leaves Clinton and Guiliani. Clinton will more than likely win the democratic nomination with not many problems. Guiliani will probably win the Republican nomination, although he's pro-choice. He seems the most electable in the GOP. Now, Clinton vs Guiliani. Guiliani will not go across well in the south because of his stand on abortion. Some Republicans may not even vote for that reason(they certainly won't vote for Clinton.)

As you probably already know, Mitt Romney is a Mormon. My question is, do we still have such a strain of bigotry in America that we would let that bother us? If you just don't like his politics, fine, but I've heard several reports that say around 25% of Americans would NOT vote for a qualified Mormon because of his religion. For women, and African americans it was something like 5%.

With so many choices, and some many of the choices not being very different from each other, who do you think is best for America and the American people and WHY do you think so? Please, no unsubstantiated answers, explain your position.
