I thought you did a nice job. You presented your views simply enough and I generally agree with you. As far as Sudan and Darfur, which runnerxc17 has decided to single out, you're right on. The US has to stop trying to be the world's policeman. Supporting a UN peacekeeping force is fine but waltzing into any country we please, expecting everything to go our way, is simply arrogant.

We Gave land away in the Balkans, that wasn't theirs, and wasn't justified... Look at what is happening now... Do you really think that we did anything? We are back to ground zero... however now we have pissed off China, and Russia in the mix. That is Yugoslavian soil, and the "Ethnic Albanians" now control it. They cannot even run their own country.

2500 American troops along with NATO troops as well.
This has not been happening for 50 years sir, the genocide has only been happening for 3 years, and it is unconscionable that we haven't acted.
We did so in the Balkans, we can do so now with far fewer troops.

Well put.

You Do know nobody is going to vote for you!!!...you a gona loose bad!
You are totally wrong on the Issue of the Sudan and Darfur...you have no business in the White House sir.
2,500 American troops could stop the GENOCIDE that is occuring in the Sudan...we could take out the Janjaweed almost immediately. What happened to America's conscience?
Iraq and Darfur are two totally different issues and have no viable way of comparison at this point.

2500 US troops would do nothing to stop the Sudanese backed troops other than be a "trip wire" for increased US involvement after they are killed. There are already 7000 AU troops in place and 26,000 UN/AU troops on the way.

Well, that is why you are wrong. Our military and NATO have already concluded that 2500 US troops would be able to stop the Janjaweed. Here is an article that points out how many troops are likely to be needed and does note that about 5-10 thousand troops from the US may be needed however, Joe Biden, Leslie Gelb, Dick Lugar have all talked about the need of just a No-Fly-Zone headed up with a ground force of a few thousand troops from as little as 2,500 troops to 10,000...

Your article was clipped by YouTube, but you must know you cannot believe everything that is written. Stopping over 50 years of violence with a mere 2500 troops is simply naive.

So i was wondering what you think about Immigration...
Would you want a wall to be build up along the Mexican/Canadian borders?
would you give Driver's license/social security/citizenship to illegal immigrants?
And last..
Would you declare English the official U.S. Language?
