Hurmmm for this election, I would pick the Democrats.
Bush is really pissing me off because he is signing the Patriot Act that totally goes against the Constitution because it invades the privacy of the American people because legally it allows the FBI or any other agencies to search and even spy on you if they think you are a possible terrorists. Now, they are planning to rewrite the Constitution limiting the rights of the American people and Bush is agreeing to it. Possibly these events is going to lead up to the movie, Minority Report starring Tom Cruise. Soon, the government is going to accuse and lock away any "potential" terrorists just because some "psychics" foresaw POSSIBLE events that is going to occur. That would be a nightmare come true. Bush is almost against everything these days, except for the Corporations and big businesses. I don't know, I think all politicians are bad these days. Kerry is a fresh face, but we don't exactly know what he attends to do nor do we know what he is saying in his campaigns are what he is going to do. Bush, I just can't trust that man, he seems to think the American people are of low intelligence and doesn't know what is going on so he delivers repetitive information and tries to avoid saying anything. Bush really needs to reach out to all of the American people, he needs to tell us what he and his administration is going to do instead of repeating what he always say, "Making the world and better place by setting up a Democratic Iraq." I don't like Kerry that much, but Edwards I really think has the potential to be a great vice-president. Kerry is too dull, he doesn't try to show America his personality and character. Edwards is really optimistic and knows the hardship of reaching the American Dream, he knows the tainted and dark America and I can really see his spirit and his desire to change the US. If I was 18, I would vote for Kerry and Edwards. |

Well, I think I would vote for David Cobb and Pat LaMarche of the Green Party. I think Kerry/Edwards is my second choice, but nobody really gives the Green Party much of a chance.
I heard Edwards' speech and he just sounded a bit too cocky. He says he's gonna do all these things, but when he gets into office, I really have little faith that he'll do anything. Will this John-John team really accomplish anything that they say they're gonna do? I don't want this to turn into another Bush regime. |

Obama was born in Kenya, wasn't he?
The only way he could be President is through a military coup. |

No, to be President you have to be born here. You can't be a naturalized citizen. A naturalized citizen can be anything in the government, except for president.
It was a compromise plan put into the Constitution so that Alexander Hamilton couldn't be President, because he was trying to raise an army and take over the government. |

QUOTE and vice president No, you don't have to be born here to be vice president. But anywho, there are already tons of topics on this. *Rolls eyes* I'm sorry, I'm just getting sick of all this repetitive-ness...if that's a word.
