I am tired of partisan politics and big money controlling elections. It seems to me that we need to elect a president that will stand up for reform.

McCain and Feingold have led the way with campaign finance reform legislation, do you think they would be good presidential candidates?

I'm not trying to start an argument of opinions here, I just would like to hear your thoughts. Are we helping, or making the situation worse in Iraq? President Bush says it would be disastrous to leave now. Do you agree?

Religion shouldn't even be an issue, because we do have diversity in this country and how about respect. Honestly, how does a working gay couple hurt Americas financial status? It should be a legal issue and not religious issue, if it's about morals, what about slutty looking clothing that is adverticed and sold all over the country to girls as young as 10, isn't that a moral issue? If the gay couple want a church wedding, then it should be up to the church and them, not the law. As far as a legal wedding not involving the church, it should be just as it is for straight couples, it is not hurting anyone. Isn't the government suppose to look out for the publics best interest, aren't gays part of this group, aren't gays voting citizens.

Watch this then answer:"The Right of the people" (to be shot at as they) "peacefully assemble." (Video)

What if everyone in this country stopped paying all their taxes because they disagreed with how the politicians etc are spending their money ie wars, martial law, violating your civil rights, lawlessness of legislators, the lies etc? Would that affect a change in the direction this country is heading?

I'm from Iraq. I am an Assyrian Christian. We let the Muslims in our country 1400 years ago and they slowly destroyed it and killed off most of our people. George W. Bush is preventing that from happening to America. That's why I support his actions.

If the President has already served 2 terms in office, can he be elected vice-president? If he can, then will he become president again if the current one in office dies or is unable to perform his duty?

I'm really dissapointed in the direction America is going right now. Ever since Bush got into office, we've been sliding down the hill.

The American dollar has weakened against every other currency, EVEN THE F*CKIN CHINESE YUAN. That's ridiculous. Their money used to be an 8th of ours - now its getting nearer to a 7th.

America still has plenty of people starving and families LOSING THEIR HOMES because of the unemployment rate.
What's worse than the unemployment is UNDEREMPLOYMENT. America's jobs are going to Asia and everywhere else and our people don't have the money to retrain themselves.

Housing prices, energy prices and food prices have hit ridiculous highs and the middle class and poor are suffering everyday.
Unlike the rich class, the rest can't adjust and are only falling further behind.

The war in Iraq has brought America to near 9 Trillion dollars in debt and if we continue this way, I see a very possible 10 Trillion before Bush's term ends.

Israel uses artillery and planes to fire shells and drop bombs on it's neighbor and now America is going to pay to rebuild what the Israelis destroyed? Why are we giving them weapons? Why are we giving them money? And why are we paying for their wars? Shouldn’t that money at least be deducted from the hundreds of millions we send them every year in foreign aid?

PS: Go ahead and call me and “anti-semite.” I know anytime anyone questions anything regarding Israel he or she is immediately labeled a bigot. Funny how that works. Anyone can say anything they like about me and they are simply labeled “a person with an opinion.”

And sense I’m spending five points, how about this: Why isn’t there Free Speech in Europe? Did you know that if you question anything about the Holocaust in some European countries you can be sent to prison?

It’s no joke. Read the news........

BBC World News: “British historian David Irving has been found guilty in Vienna of denying the Holocaust of European Jewry and sentenced to three years in prison.”

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4733820.stm

Actually he didn’t deny the holocaust happened; he argued that some of the numbers might have been exaggerated. And I don’t know if he’s right, wrong or indifferent. I’m just saying that you can “deny” that I exist. That the world is flat. You can even proclaim that there is no God, and nothing bad happens to you. But say a disparaging word about Holocaust; and your a criminal. Ask a question about Israel and your a bigot. Why is that?

Why do most Republicans, Dubya and his GOP are against gay marriages? Is it a reason of morality, if it is, then you should abolish marriage all together because the divorce rate and family abuse in America isn't all that great. Is it a reason of religion, what happen diversity, should we expect Christianity to be forced on everyone from now on? Aren't gay Americans legal citizens that have a vote and their opinions should matter too, so why not let them get married, they aren't hurting you or the government, so what's the deal?

This person has two children. The father of one of the children provides child support each month and this person is employed full time and eligible for health insurance but refuses to pay for it.

The other child is a recent addition and the father of that child lives with the mother and works a full time job, and sometimes a part time job.

State is paying for childcare, health, and providing food stamps for both children and free health insurance for mother (dating back to first pregnancy and child).

Now, I'm aware that the state will help with the childrens insurance and a pregnant mothers, but if someone is eligible for insurance but neglects to get it because they dont want to pay, can't they be denied?

The second child's father has insurance but will not put the kid on because he'd rather spend his money on amps.

They just got a new van, which means they need insurance, their rent is only 675 everything included and they both have cell phones.

Internal peace is an essential first step to achieving peace in the world. How do you cultivate it? It's very simple. In the first place by realizing clearly that all mankind is one, that human beings in every country are members of one and the same family.
