How does being married to a president count as experience?
I mean really, if we were voting for couples then Dennis Kussinich would have 30% of the votes. (have you seen his wife?)

First off, I am a registered Democrat, and proud of it. But as I watched both the Democratic and Republican debates, I was left rooting for a Republican. The Democrats used their time to defend themselves from their opponents and "beat around the bush" when it came to the actual question being asked (some questions were never answered in my opinion)...and every one of the Republicans seemed to give a definitive answer on the question asked...regardless if they defended themselves or trashed another candidate. It's by no means making me want to change parties...but the frustration is overwhelming me. Why the hell can't the Democratic candidates give decent answers to the questions they are asked?!?!

Once again I am that same african american high school student and i highly believ it is not because it at times over rides our vote and our choice for such an important position. I would very much appreciate it if you would share you opinion on this subject and your reasoning as to why you believe that.

Democrats say government should stay out of your private business, yet they don't think you know how to spend your own money. They think the american people are serfs who are ripe for exploitation by the government.
Republicans beleive in freedom and fllowing the constitution, yet they think government can stick their nose in your private business either for "moral purposes" or national security. They rarely follow the constitution... especially concerning this terrible war in Iraq.
It seems like all of them ignore Benjamin Franklin.

"Those who give up Liberty for Security deserve Neither" (paraphrasing)

Senate Bill 1959 to Criminalize Thoughts, Blogs, Books and Free Speech Across America

by Mike Adams

The end of Free Speech in America has arrived at our doorstep. It's a new law called the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act, and it is worded in a clever way that could allow the U.S. government to arrest and incarcerate any individual who speaks out against the Bush Administration, the war on Iraq, the Department of Homeland Security or any government agency (including the FDA). The law has already passed the House on a traitorous vote of 405 to 6, and it is now being considered in the Senate where a vote is imminent.

All over the internet, intelligent people who care about freedom are speaking out against this extremely dangerous law: Philip Giraldi at the Huffington Post, Declan McCullagh at CNET's News.com, Kathryn Smith at OpEdNews.com, and of course Alex Jones at PrisonPlanet.com

This bill is the beginning of the end of Free Speech in Ame

Everyone is taking Hedge Fund (super investment machines) donations but Ron Paul. He is the only one. Hedge Fund Managers are courting the candidates to get them to do what they wish and to not tax them! Ironically the most funded are the Dems, but both parties are taking huge donations and are entertaining them. When in office they will have to repay these exuberant donations one way or another! I guess John McCain sees this as being "outside" lobby restrictions! Hypocrites!

It's these things that go under our noses during the debates!

Happy Holidays!

The ron Paul people have somehow got to get a grip on reality. Ron Paul has one mainstream platform: He's anti-war. So are all the Democrats. Let's pretend for two seconds that Jesus comes down from heaven and Ron Paul actually gets the Republican nomination. Then there's a big problem for the Republicans. Ron Paul is not a Republican. He's a hard core Libertarian. Hard core Libertarians are nuts. Ron Paul is on record advocating lunatic libertarian policies that are WAY outside the mainstream. The Democratic candidate would have a field day with his past. He'd be crushed in the general election. He might not even get 15% of the vote. You people that are so enamored with Ron Paul because he's an anti-war "Republican" need to come to grips with reality and start supporting a Democrat. In America, we elect idiots, but not lunatics....

Is it something that the widespread racism will allow.

I'm a dem who'd much rather vote for Obama than Hillary. But I've also lived in the south and rural America.

Will these people be just too freaked out by a black leader?

What are your thoughts.

John McCain has never been 'more of the same.' He takes heat from both parties and many voters because he doesn't compartmentalize into their platform of ideas neatly. If I want independence, integrity and experience, I'll vote for McCain. If I want canned answers or opinions that result from polls, not principle, I'll vote for any of several of the other candidates.

Paul has the best chance of beating Hillary. Why waste your Primary vote on Giuliani/Romney when it will only get Hillary elected. Besides, both Hillary and Giuliani/Romney are against the 2nd amendment.

The dollar is falling through the floor. The Canadian dollar is worth more for the first time since I've been alive. And there is not talk of it rebounding any time soon.
Our national debt is at Nine Trillion Dollars with no end in site. It has almost doubled in the past 7 years.
This country spends way beyond its means. We are even borrowing money from China to fund the war in the Middle East.

Which candidate can turn it around and how are they going to do it?
