i swear to the flying spaghetti monster, before you even spoke, i was going to say you look like my ex-girlfriend's sister. that was THE FIRST thing that came to my mind. is that my biology or is that the result of my environment? paul/kucinnich 08. keep kicking ass, connie's sister's lookalike.
It's too bad that you assume that men and women will ask different questions of the candidates. In a perfect world, and in a republic, I'd hope that people could set aside self interest at least a little and ask questions for the good of the whole country.
One comment on filming, this video would've probably looked better if you had not had sunlit windows behind you. Instead, set up so the light coming from the window lights your face instead of putting your face in shadow.
I think that you are incredibly evocative and you draw me in. Excited about what you're saying here, I would love to participate in any debate you have in mind. Your presentation of ideas are logically sound and convey meaning on many levels. Your Independence? Simply delicious!
Nice insight on male/female response focal points. I think that it's unfortunate that the world buys into stressing the aesthetic value of women. Also, with Anderson Cooper - Youtube and CNN need to watch this video before the republican debate.
Anderson Cooper was seriously annoying. While I'm not a huge Kucinich supporter, I was really uncomfortable by Cooper's biases whether intentional or no.
I don't think Anderson Cooper dramatically re-framed your question; "How will your policies get Americans to do THIS*", is not unfairly summed up by (to paraphrase): "How do you get INDIVIDUAL Americans to conserve". That is essentially the dilemma I *think* you are describing; the only difference is by omitting the word "policy" Obama is given a little more leeway in answering the question (probably with meaningless platitudes) than you were hoping.
"transparency in the process" ...I want to give you a hug. I don't think Cooper did it on purpose, but that doesn't stop it from sucking. As far as where the candidates stand, I don't think they'll ever change it, and Anderson's joke about no one being able to stand to the left of Kucinich at the end of the debates displays that almost perfectly
firthian, maybe like the buzzers The Simpsons used during family therapy. Too many buzzes means owies. Or even physical challenges! We know Edwards can throw a football, but can he throw one with his eyes blindfolded?
You are very smart; keep it up, women like you are of a great value to the human race, (not joking)
Here is my question for you, how do you get people to change behavior in our society (bad behavior)? Obviously bad behavior is a very generic and subjective term but what I am speaking about is how to get people to use common sense behavior away from any influences (i.e. culture and religion)? Let me know.
I've always thought debates like this should put Jeopardy-style buzzers in the hands of audience members, and they get to use them whenever they think a candidate is dodging a question. If the number of buzzers activated reaches some intolerable level, then that candidate automatically loses the debate.
Perhaps some kind of "stop reframing the question" buzzer is also in order. One for each hand.
But, then, it would be kind of awkward for the moderator to officially lose the debate.
you are a very intelligent well spoken woman. but it's not gonna stop me from saying ur hot!

Very Impressive! It's great to see someone who is an average citizen respond with great comments and suggestions. Anderson Cooper, are you listening?

Women want to be taken just as seriously and still be worshipped sexually. You just can't have it both ways.

Wow, hit all of the important points, most notably the amount of time given to each candidate and the positioning of them on stage. Bravo!
