The Next President: Pick One.

[Sagesound]

Who would you vote as the next President of the United States of America?

• A white man.
• A white woman.
• A black man.
• A black woman (under the extreme odds that such a candidate would exist for 2008).

Step right up and vote today…

I voted black man, thinking of one in particular.

…

That’s right.

Samuel L. Jackson.

[neonizer]

In reality, a black man who probably won’t run.

I meant Colin Powell, not Samue-L Jackson.

for the republicans, we have: a divorcee (giuliani), an old man (mccain), and some other guy who is a mormon who wont get it;

for the democRats we have: a “black” ex-muslim now christian, a white woman (clinton), and edwards i think? anyway…

in my opinion they’re all weak candidates… i’d be interested to see if Obama supports stem cell research or not. that topic (stem cell research) is gonna be a big’un next year.

Oh wait not Samuel L. Jackson.

Barak Obama.

Although if Jackson was president there’d be no terrorists releasing snakes on commercial planes.

You know, I had the same thought when I first saw Samue-L’s name. There wouldn’t be anymore “motherfuckin’ snakes” on anymore “motherfuckin’ plane”(s). That thought saddened me for a good 2 and half seconds.

Pity, I guess.

my mistake; his father was ex-muslim

…I was not raised in a religious household. My maternal grandparents, who hailed from Kansas, had been steeped in Baptist and Methodist teachings as children, but religious faith never really took root in their hearts. My mother’s own experiences as a bookish, sensitive child growing up in small towns in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas only reinforced this inherited skepticism. […] My father was almost entirely absent from my childhood, having been divorced from my mother when I was 2 years old; in any event, although my father had been raised a Muslim, by the time he met my mother he was a confirmed atheist, thinking religion to be so much superstition.

The current vote to this date favors a black man in office followed closely by a white man… What is most remarkable is that the majority would rather see a man rather than a woman run the United States.

John McCain announced he’s running.

I think it would be cool to have a bi-partisan white house. A President and Vice-President of two different parties would shake things up good.

[thezeus18]

I think the electoral system needs to be rewritten. The tail is wagging the dog, more obviously now than ever before.

I think we should all go live in the forest and forget about the electoral system.

this is kind of how sweden does it. In the US, if you win, you wipe the white house clean and build up all folks from your party. In sweden, whatever percentage your party gets, gets in the main cabinet or whatever, and they all have to work together, you know… like democracy or whatever…

representative democracy is weak democracy! I’m sorry, it just is.

I think romney got a good chance for the republican ticket, mostly cause he looks younger than most. Looks DO matter, think of all the fucken people magazine americans buy. Looks play a big part…unfortuantely.

The dems will try to push hillary I think. The greens will unapologetically steal tickets from the dems. And all the other parties will whine, which is understandable cause no one gives a ripped up cent to non-republican/demy ideas.

It might be a circus this time around, now with the war and the terrorism scare which still seems to be going on.

Tom Cruise for Pres! Wouldn’t that be weird? Can anyone immagine a scientologist for president? Hey, it could happen down the road, I mean, arnold got cali.

good call, too bad they own all the forests that are not private.

Hey I got an idea … Dig a hole really deep in the middle of nowhere, and cover it real well, so no one can tell, and then you can live rent free without the government. You’ll never have to fill out another one of them ballots. Pure Freedom!

or… join a cult. They’ll make sure you know all the answers you need to know about politics, but don’t think they’ll actually give you all the ponnies they promise.

I hear ya though, forests are nice. can’t wait for warmer camping weather.
