so if he got elected.....

[DREDIOCK]

and dred.. I vote in every election that I am allowed.

lazs

Note I said "most" Not all.

You do. But how many of the people you know also do?

And of the ones that do. How many just close their eyes and just vote for the party?

Here in NJ we have a State Gov that rivals only Louisiana in curruption.
Yet people just close their eyes and vote for the party and the same people in over and over again.

Ahhhh...you are the CEO of a huge corporation...you brought the company outta ruins....you are a true leader....you make millions and millions of dollars...why oh why would you want to be president??? ego? Could be the only thing....what great corporate leader would want to be president...you would have to have a hole in your head.This is why we have no good candidates for president!!!

It's funny to see the limited-liability corporation held up as the standard for the job that carries ultimate responsibility.

[Kaw1000]

The ultimate responsibility is to run the country like you would a good sound business.
 Instead, we see waste in the government every day. Waste that is ruining the country.

Absolutely not.  The duty of the president is to defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.  Everything else is secondary.

I'm not saying that some business principles can't be applied to government, but we must keep our priorities in view.

Our government has been trashing the constitution for decades, if not longer, and hence the jab about "limited-liability."

[Kaw1000]

Good point...We could have a long chat about this...but it would make our heads spin.  lolol
But our enemies are killing use in other way besides blood shead,,,,they are killing use financially.

Why we don't see it?  Because Government attracts the corrupted.


The solution?  Conscript random people to run the country for a little while.  People who don't want to run the government, and don't want the government ruling them would be the best at the reigns.

You Republicans have done this to yourself, ya know- and now you're trying to scare people that eight years of Obama could possibly be worse than the eight years we suffered under Bush, so we're better off with four more years of the Bush surrogate, McCain, in charge?

That's a tough sell.

Yea that's the funnest part of it all. Obama would have to be pretty damn bad to do worse than Bush has the last 8 years. The second post was saying something about the economy tanking under Obama. Ummm hello the economy has already tanked under Bush. You can't send all the jobs over seas and run your entire budget on borrowed Chinese money while waging a war that has cost us insane amounts of money and not have the economy go to crap.

BTW Larz you say Obama will break promises? Well of course he will all politicians lie to get elected. Bush is no different, he promised all kinds of crap to the Religious Reich that he never followed through with. He also didn't fund our schools after he promised he would.

Sorry Obama would have to be pretty bad to be worse then what we already have and McCain has already shown his true colors by flopping on everything he stood for to say anything in order to get the Republican nomination. It's funny how you guys forget how much McCain has flip - flopped since the beginning of this election campaigns.

That's pretty much how the ancient Athenians did it.

So if he got elected..... Mossad will put him down right away.

USA will be sucked in another war at the end of this year.  Zionists in DC will make sure USA gets involved  Get ready guys, you gotta adjust quick at post Bush 2.0 era

Even McCain is better than Obama.

[SD67]

You guys better hope he gets a decent VP.
He'll be lucky to last 12 months.

[ZetaNine]

Even McCain is better than Obama.

scary thought, that....and here is the main reality why...
many republicans feel VERY disenchanted with the offering (McCain) of their party...and feel that McCain does not deserve their vote....ie: they will be sitting this one out.  thus... Obama by a landslide.

if you think obama has inertia going now...and you really should if you pay attention to the signs...wait until he makes his acceptance speech in an outdoor stadium.........that move was pure PR genius.

[crockett]

Ahh maybe two years ago I could have agreed with you, but McCain has caved in on what he believed in and shown that he will do and say anything to get elected. That means he will just be another puppet just like Bush is now.

Even just a year ago, when he was the underdog in the Republican primaries. He's certainly changed since he won the nomination.
Still like him better than Obama, though.

[moot]

Crockett you really think Obama's no puppet?
