@TriggerJunkie If you really want change in gov't you are focusing on the wrong problem. Congress, 535 people between both houses, have a much bigger hand in the problems than any president. Vote for whomever you like, it wont change much without changing Congress as well. I think it was Twain that said, "Politicians should be changed like diapers, often and usually for the same reason."

@EverybodyStalfos Funny thing is the Democratic Party is the same and I'm a liberal saying this. I think GW put it best "However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."

@kingachybraky ron paul is a proven racist :P tho i do like his words on most things, they are probably just words, better then the rest as a bet but who knows until its too late

if there is one thing in america that aint as bad as some wants to think, its unemployment. here in Sweden where i live the norm currently is between 15-25% which is horrible, and this aint just because its highly educated jobs, its because we have so few factories and uneducated work places, me being one of the uneducated people, atleast in any kind of boring straight laced suit education, did go to collage to study game design. Factories are the life blood of countries.

The republichristian party of America is an episiotomy gone wrong. Now it is just an open wound causing the rest of the body unbelievable pain and embarrassment.

We need a obstetrician to get in there, clean it out, and sew it up.

@fonkymaster Exactly that is what I am trying to explain to this guy.

[dagrimmreepa]

@5heneverlies Well, seeing as how I don't live in your backwards-ass country, I really could give a fuck about who gets elected. But facts are facts.

@ShatterNWO the gains that somalia has made in some area's would i think be better if a properly funded liberal democratic republic was operating.
