If we're going to elect a Texan, vote for Neal.

Imo he's no better or worse than anyone else that is running.

Anything is an improvement over the incumbent sitting in the White House now.

I don't know if I could support that. Would he have time to run the country and Subsim.com?

McBee's subsim the musical 2016:




Sweet jeebus, think of what Jim's post count would be by then! Do they make servers big enough to store that size of a number!

He's kept his sanity and his sense of humor keeping all of us in line, he's raised kids and kept Cavalla looking good... Aside from the fact that we like him too much to punish him so, I can't imagine anyone better for the job, except maybe McBee's menagerie of pups.

Think on it... Defense secretary 'buna, secretary of state Steve, homeland security secretary McBee, treasury secretary Reece... Okay, on second thought, let's not go to Camelot, it's a silly place.

Rick Perry? Isn't he some kind of rock and roll personality?

I personally like him - tho that is a tentative statement. Him, Bachman, and Pawlenty (sp?) are my top 3 so far.

Well... I'm from Finland which when I last time checked wasn't part of the United States of America (thank God!) and therefore I wasn't aware of these. I'm also little bit too young to remember anything about pre-WWII time... I didn't exist yet.

I dislike republicans guess why? Two reasons: 1. George W. Bush - one Republican warmonger, no thanks to another 2. in my opinion excessive presence of religion (this applies in some extent to dems too). In last election I would have voted (in unlucky case of being American) McCain if Palin wouldn't have been Vice President candidate.

P.S. I don't have anything against citizens of United States of America, but since 2003 I have not trusted in any extent to U.S. federal government.

Well then how about this, I dislike democrats because of lack of morality and Lyndon Johnson, FDR, all the Kennedy's, John Edwards, Bill Clinton, the (mainly) democrats that tried to stop the civil rights movement, Woodrow Wilson, Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Jimmy Carter, Tim Geithner, pretty much everyone appointed by the current admin., the EPA, the ACLU, and trust me I can list hundreds of people and groups I have something against (also can think of a lot that I don't have much of anything against).

Can't make the face of a group someone who isn't influential anymore.

And Bush did a number of good things, especially during his 1st term.

Oh, war mongers, FDR and LBJ
