Same. Especially since he's not likely to be a crybaby in public... :icon_twisted:

That really set my wife off a bit. She gets a bit steamed over women getting leverage in a professional situation by crying.

I have normally voted Republican in the past, but I don't think I will this year. I don't see any republican candidates that would make a strong president. Obama impesses me a lot because he knows how to deliver very powerful and inspiring speaches, much like Reagon did when he was president. Clinton is very cold and calculating -- she might make a good president too but she is not anywhere near as inspiring as Obama.

I won't if they nominate a RINO. But I won't go so far as to vote socialist.

Okay, here's one. :icon_twisted:

So did Stalin...
Obama like Clinton is a leftist extremist. Obama on top of that is a fundamentalist Muslim.

Vote for him if you want Sharia law in the US, vote for Clinton if you want the US to turn into North Korea.

obama isnt an exremist.

Born in Honolulu to a Kenyan father and an American mother, Obama grew up in culturally diverse surroundings. He"was not raised in a religious household." He describes his mother, raised by non-religious parents, as detached from religion, yet "in many ways the most spiritually awakened person that I have ever known." He describes his Kenyan father as "raised a Muslim," but a "confirmed atheist" by the time his parents met, and his Indonesian stepfather as "a man who saw religion as not particularly useful." The chapter details how Obama, in his twenties, while working with local churches as a community organizer, came to understand "the power of the African American religious tradition to spur social change." Obama writes: "It was because of these newfound understandings—that religious commitment did not require me to suspend critical thinking, disengage from the battle for economic and social justice, or otherwise retreat from the world that I knew and loved"

I don't care how inspiring their speech is I want someone who has the same views as I do.

No he isn't.

Vote for him if you want Sharia law in the US, vote for Clinton if you want the US to turn into North Korea.

People said that about John Kennedy too in 1960 (the Pope would be ruling the nation), never happened.

What does someone's religion have to do with his/her qualifications to be President ? Answer: not a damned thing.

Isn't that exactly how over 50% of Americans are raised ?

this doesn't look like a muslem church to me. And here's another reference to Obama's religious beliefs.

I would respectfully request that you please provide proof to back your statement.

How are you defining 'stupid' and 'senseless'? I'd say that commentary about the candidates is essential. Simply be prepared to back up whatever you say.

I believe he meant to type "if you do not live here...", but I think your point is still valid anyway.

Question: how does America's Democratic party differ from Socialists?

The Democrats are farther left.

Member Avatar for Infarction

The Democrats are farther left.

While I don't have a socialist platform to compare to, I find that hard to believe. Seems like American parties tend to be more rightist than European ones. Being too far left would leave the Democrats with too little support as it would be considered very radical.

Member Avatar for jbennet

yeah, new labour which is centrer-left in the UK would probably seen as extreme left in the US

That's complete nonsense.

both the republicans and democrats are a lot farther to the right than the Conservatives are in the UK

My old aunt is so afraid of lefties, that she only makes right turns in traffic.

Question: how does America's Democratic party differ from Socialists?

Heh. DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS OF AMERICA (DSA)

DSA seeks to increase its political influence not by establishing its own party, but rather by working closely with the Democratic Party to promote leftist agendas. "Like our friends and allies in the feminist, labor, civil rights, religious, and community organizing movements, many of us have been active in the Democratic Party," says DSA. "We work with those movements to strengthen the party's left wing, represented by the Congressional Progressive Caucus. ... Maybe sometime in the future ... an alternative national party will be viable. For now, we will continue to support progressives who have a real chance at winning elections, which usually means left-wing Democrats."

I wonder if an old candidate brings wisdom to the table, or just falls asleep a lot like Ronald Reagan did? Falling asleep allowed the expert members of his staff to do their work.

That's wisdom in action. Try to change what you can and what you can not, well, sleep it over.
