Discussion on US Presidential election

Agreed. I'll be 18 when voting day comes along, so I'll actually have to follow elections this year.
Obama seems like a guy who hasn't been corrupted by politics yet (like Hillary & the rest of them). Who knows though, it may be all show.

I can vote for Obama but never for Hilarty Klinton. A new pole today says her approval rating went down the crapper and is now only a few points from Obama.

Don't PM me with questions -- you might get a nasty PM in response. If you have a question then post it in one of the forums.

I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough. -The Notebook

As for the war, I completely agree with you. It seems that every day the death toll rises significantly. Why the hell can't the world's best armies quickly take out these damn insurgents. At first, I think most Americans were very supportive of the war; however, where has it gone in the last 6 years? I truly think the only reason we are in Iraq today is b/c of oil.. If the decision was mine, I would recall all of our armed forces and just let the Iraqis kill each other in a civil war.. How is their war our problem?

They're going after the populace as well, which makes it even that much more difficult to guess where they'll come from.
