This is so awesome about the US elections. It's a two party system and instead of focusing early on, on beating the republicans. It starts of by mudslinging with in the own party. I wouldn't do it that way. It makes the process pretty interesting though.

It is sad. We are 18 months off from this election and we're already having debates ffs! And the biggest domestic political issue I have with this country is your point about a two party system. It's a fu*king scam, and once you realize that, you really start to feel pissed off about getting the shaft in expressing your opinion in a country of, by and for the people.

Are you talking about Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas? That's not GTA:4. And if I remember correctly, I believe that Clinton only wanted to restrict games such as GTA😖A to children (which already have an M rating). What's so bad about that?

Now that's just embarrassing. 😮. I was talking about the wrong game.

Which is already done by the fact it is a M rating. She took out her aggression on the video game industry when it's the parent's faults they let their children play this game. That tells me she has a lack of common sense or logic.

Two finals, a final essay, and my normal antagonism.

Heh, well no complaints here then.

Back on topic, Democrats will not win the election. The two major Democratic candidates are a black man and a woman. Once we know the Republican representative we know the winner.

The Reds will lose this election unfortunately.

America is far too bias still

Its less so than you think.

I mean the top brass will not allow it as in they will throw lots of smut @ them i.e. Kerry

John Kerry was running in 2004. It's 2007.

As profound as that sounds, not a lot has happened in the interim.

Again, the "blues" will loose if they run a candidate based soley on their gender or colour. But, maybe they won't.

The sad part about all of this is that it's a "corner turning" point.

Pay more attention to their thinly veiled political points, and less attention to their gender or race.

Logic is cute and all but we all know the majority of voters do not base votes on issues.

that's why I said "thinly veiled".

and thank you for quoting me before the 15 minute rule, otherwise I would still be saying it was 2006.

Cheers

But I am saying that race and gender will play a big part in the politics of it all regardless if how it should be.

Are we agreeing?

Not completely, but for the most part.

And I absolutely agree that there are aspects of race and gender that are going to supercede the real issues. And I find it sad that such is the case, in America...of, by and for...et all.

Said with all due reverence, but executed with all due laughability.

Kucinich '08...and I'll leave it there.

I bet it will be a non-issue in debates. The media will make a circus of it, but thats what they've always done.

And what do you expect of the real issues? Race and Gender won't be addressed, despite the fact that they're what it's all about.

Neitehr candidate is running on a platform of "I'm black" or "I'm female"
