Elections - September 2007

I know that people say that the more populated areas of the US would have the say on who's President. But can't we just look at the country as a whole. I mean if you take away all the borders and just had a popular vote. Wouldn't that clearly state who more people in the US want as the President?

I see all these wild statements on Y/A! Things like:
"She's a crook"
"She's a Socialist"
"She's pro-war",or, "she's anti-war"

Now really folks, don't you think that after all the millions of our dollars spent investigating Bill & Hill in the 90's, that we know Everything there is to know about their backgrounds, and history ?
Also, since the bad old days of the Clinton Administration, Hillary has been elected twice to the Senate, from New York State ! One of the most politically savvy sections of the country. A place where the politics of personal destruction was born ! I'm sure some Republican opponent would have dug-up any new skeletons she may have gathered to her closet, during these two elections.

A lot of the negativity about her candidacy seems to come from other women,..the one's you would expect to be thrilled that we have the first seriously qualified woman candidate for our highest office. That really surprises me?

So what's Up?, is this just fear of change?

Are black Republicans stupid for supporting a party that hates them? Just like how homosexual Republican is an oxymoron.
I mean c'mon the Conservative party is just that, Conservative. to conserve the racist and sexist white male United States. It is a party founded on not having different cultures and not having equal ground for all races and genders. So, I found it really awkward how Condi Rice would support a party that would be against the very race she is. Shame.

She'd certainly be more diplomatic than Dick Cheny! Imagine it, Obama-Oprah 2008. Do you think he or she would even consider it as a possibility? Only problem is, we have to live with the idea of her becoming president if Obama kicked the bucket.

Most, if not all, are taking a reactive approach to solving problems. I'm going to do this because of this(whatever happened). I realize it's necessary to remember the past for the sake of the future, but I do not see any candidates, republican or democrat, with a vision into the future. Do you?

Americans deserve a real leader, right?

I don't mean the Presidency, I mean the Congressional elections. Thanks to Hagel and Warner deserting the Republicans have to defend 22 of 34 seats in the next election. So again, how will they fair in the Senate and House.

The people vote, the people don't vote; the people get duped while few don't; people sign the mortgage; people do just about everything wrong and I guess get what they deserve...humans, run governments..some nations kill them when out of control,,,,fortunately we have elections to rid ourselves of them but few are informed and many do not bother to vote...the people's apathy is the problem not the governments...too bad many lose sons and daughters because of the governments elected by the people. For the people is not the government we get.

Another prominent Hillary Rodham Clinton supporter is facing serious criminal charges.

Passaic, N.J., Mayor Samuel "Sammy" Rivera, recently named to Clinton's national Hispanic outreach team, was one of 11 Garden State politicians snared in a federal sting yesterday involving school contracts.

It's not clear if Rivera was due to attend Clinton's speech to New Jersey Democrats in Atlantic City today.

A group was given permission to start collecting signatures to qualify a measure for the June ballot. The proposed change would award 1 electoral college vote to the winner of each congressional district with the winner getting the other two votes (total electors is equal to the states number of representatives to the House plus it's two senators).

As with 47 other states (Maine and Nebraska being the exception), California awards all of it's electoral votes to the winner of the statewide election.

Had this been the law in 2004, 22 of the states 55 electoral votes would have gone to Bush with 33 going to Kerry (instead of Kerry getting all 55).
