Stop asking dumb questions that do not need to be answered. I'm not asking you if you're inline with the sheepdog and herder, am I?
Dumb for you maybe. Some people may not have any background to what you are talking about. That's what the video link is for.

Then it doesn't matter who wins according to you and if it doesn't matter it might as well be Obama. The only thing that matters to me per se, is how much national policy will trickle down to my way of living. So far it's mostly entertainment. If it gets too bad, well those new Slider type items from DP may be the way out of this reality.

Change is a great thing, but sweeping change? It's great talk at the podium, but this is not, "Mr. Smith goes to Washington." Working with congress is an entirley different animal. Barack is a freshman senator having not even chaired a commitee, and suddenly he thinks he'll be able to wheel and deal with congress?
Socialized education and medicine has to be paid for by someone. Barack and Clinton say it (taxes) will come from corporations. And how will the coporations respond?...moving jobs overseas resulting in layoffs here and charging much more for their products, etc.
Every canidate in history claimed on their platform "no cowtowing to special interests and lobbyists." It's the special interests and lobbyists that put millions in their campaign funds to start with. I guess the canidates all think that Americans are "stupid."
Democrats in office are already planning a 683 billion tax in increase over 5 years "if" they get the presidency. Hell we already have to claim the stimilus package from Bush on our taxes and "if" the republicans are voted out of office then all tax cuts by Bush will be erased. That's a real "smart" stimulus package put forth the the Dems.
My wife lived in England for a while and can tell you straight up that socialized medicine does not work like they say it will. When she lived there, those that could afford it would carry additional insurance since the gov't insurance covers only basic care. If you need surgery then you will have to go on long waiting lists since the entire public is on the same insurance. _________________ Evolve or Die

It's not that Americans are stupid. It's that we don't know how the government actually works. The government takes our money. We don't get an accounting of how it is spent, what it was spent for, or even how much each item cost. We don't know who contributed what, and how that influenced buying decisions.
If we had that information, we could open a dialog with out elected leaders, and maybe even vote on special items of interest while elected officials are in office. For sure we could raise the issue and have a meaningful dialog about how the company is being run.
I don't know how to bring something like that to fruition, but I do know that something like that needs doing. Or maybe I just need to go to that reality... _________________ Quotes ≠ Knowledge.

He's a puppet just like Hillary, Bush and McCain. His one of his advisors is Zbigniew Brzezinski, founder of the Trilateral Comission.
Yes. ^^
He is amusing to watch, though.
Much more so than the other one.

Honestly, if Hillary gets the Dem nomination she will absolutely lose the election. Obama has been able to draw some people who have would have ordinarily voted for McCain. Hillary can't claim that. And she doesn't inspire enough people to go to the polls to vote for her. A lot of dems are lukewarm on her, which is dangerous for her on election day because of lot of them just won't show.
Remnant naiveté... ~To consider her noteworthy at all.
I stated quite some time ago [in the Shoutbox] that The Powers That Be would prefer a male [liaison]; this is a theme which consistently holds true.

I would argue that as the very definition of stupidity.... But then, perhaps I am unfairly looking at the world through rose-colored glasses. _________________ I Change My Dream Into An Ideal,

Wow...look at you, digging in the stacks.
Thanks for reviving this. I just think Sarah Palin is such a ridiculous woman. As a woman, she makes you wish to have someone like Hillary back in the race.
I'm voting for Obama. Nuff said. _________________ "May I be the doctor and the nurse

Good luck to you and your country for voting for either Obama or Mc Cain. Two idiots who wanted the bailout plan passed at any cost, and look at the consequences with the economy now. Although, without the bailout it would eventually go downhill anyway, because it is based on fraud.
