SCENERY FOR THE PUBLIC.

If people followed the Constitution, there wouldn't be this political division that we see today. The blogging world is extremely partisan in their views, I'm guessing since it's anonymous they're brave enough to really spout off.There needs to be a compromise.

this is all bullshit, this is all contrived. they should just use the popular vote,the majority wins and thats it, but that would take out all the fun out of this circus, wewant to make it entertaining...we don't want the american public who has been conditioned to the tabloids to get stressed out.

that's because normally here in the u.s.a they dont want the candidates that are too smart, they don't want to feel intimidated.they want someone they can associate with, like dumb and dumber.

Berek Obama is getting all the support for committing all his energy against Islam and Muslims and in favor of Jew Community. If he turns vice versa, I'm sure he'll succeed in getting more votes. Jews are wealthier of course but have been declared as people who will enter Hell on the day of Judgement. Berek Obama is going after the wealth and not the piety which is the greatest force. Islam is spreading at double the speed just because of this principle of piety not the wealth.

Eliminate manufacturing jobs that sustain the lower end of societyMake higher education unaffordable so lower classes never advanceTie credit histories to job qualifications so that they can't increase incomeModify judicial system so that lower classes are flagged "felon"Young in poor towns, having no alternatives, signup & die or get legs blown off for profit, hoping to live to cash in on tuition promisesWhen Corporate henchmen are criticized for killing, they can say "They volunteered"

what the fuck happened to ron paul? Listen, if the case is that we still have the power to elect our presidents (and that its not fixed), then I just can't fucking believe how no one did their homework and realised that ron paul was the best one to get us the fuck out of this mess.

This is the worst presidential field, ever! We have Billary, McAmnesty, and Curious George. They are all crooks and I recommend leaving your ballot's "president" space blank. If enough of this do this, they might be forced to come up with better quality candidates in the future. It really doesn't matter who we elect because they are all just different masks on the same face. After all, the president is really just a figure-head and the shadow government runs it all!

Shrillary, here's your chance to be the opportunistic political garbage bag you are and win the White House! You still have a chance to turn America into a 3rd world socialist banana republic!

Do you know WHY academics tend to vote liberal while the working class vote republican? Because they've gotten an EDUCATION on the issues, and realize the folly of the conservative agenda. Is it a coincidence, then, that that same agenda often stiff-arms funding FOR education? Keep the stupid stupid, and they're easier to manipulate. Case in point: YOU.
