We don't need any more socialism in the US, we have more than enough.
Isn't it true comrade Stevens, that you speak Russian and have played the akula in DW?

August may be right..I think the Dems are scratching there asses,,, lol ..looking for someone to put up into the limelight...slim pickings there ...

I think Republicans will move towards someone with alot of XP in office and actually "Served" in the military and is pretty well seasoned now, who all Republicans can get on the same page with...AZ Senator John McCain.

Tee Hee!
I love seeing people overreact to politicians like Clinton that they have worked up to be some sort of demon in their minds as an easy way of venting their anger/frustration towards those that do not share their views. Having reviewed Hillary's political history- I can determine a few things, one she is not a communist, wishing to make all private businesses state owned would make her a communist, wanting to raise the minimum wage makes her left of center on the US political spectrum(note that I said US because by the measure of many other states her stances on most issues would likely be considered right wing) but definitely not a communist. Second, while Ms. Clinton does support stricter gun control (IMO not as strict as I would like), I cannot find any instance where she has declared her plans to completely end private gun ownership in the United States. In short these outburst of emotion directed towards Ms. Clinton seem premature, no doubt if she is nominated (which I don't think will happen, nor do I want to happen because I believe there are better candidates) the RNC and whoever opposes her will do their very best to try to paint Clinton in such a light and may well succeed, but likely at the cost of the fact that Hillary is not a Communist or a Socialist or a Fascist or any other sort of extremist.

There are plenty of Republicans that cannot stand McCain or at very least dislike him for refusing to toe the party line. He failed in his last run for president against Bush for that and many other largely illegitimate reasons. I also think that even if McCain can make it trough the primaries, his base, the center of the American political spectrum may well abandon him for failing to stand up to the administration on several instances relating to the war. In short he may be seen as too independent by Republicans and not independent enough by non party members and Democrats that have supported him in the past (like me, for instance).

This thread regards a specific and current event regarding a seperate candidate with a seperate political agenda. By my estimation, merging is not required. As such, this thread will stand indvidually.

Yea! I vote all moderators to be male ...


I don't want to argue about her beliefs ... I just want to point out one big item and wait for a better choice
to show up Dem or Republican ... That item is simply this:


"America don't need "No" mommy"

Why are people discounting her chances because she's a woman? It looks to me like America has a Hillary problem as opposed to a Gender problem. Or am I being too generous? :P

obama will never be president why?

because 3 reasons

1. hes waaayy inexperienced
2. the issue of him being african american (IM NOT RASCIST) im just saying theres alot of people down south who would rather vote for clinton or republicans then to vote for obama, then again he would prolly get 90% of the minority votes ( hspanic, african american and maybe asian,)
3. he jokes around alot especially on tv sure everyone wants a energetic leader but wut will he do if a serious problem arises like Iran or North Korea wuts he gonna do? joke aorund let the iran and n.koreans get pissed and launch a few nukes and vaporize a few million pple??

thats my 3 cents.
