It doesn't matter that private companies own the machines that are used at the polling stations. I'm pretty sure that the private companies aren't sitting their late at night after the polls close adding votes or taking away votes so they can get a certain person into office.

You're not even American so you shouldn't be in this thread anyways.

lol! misombra...i have to say ur persistent

I think America needs a big change so the Democratic party is more suitable. I've seen Obama's speech at the DNC...and i thought it was an amazing speech. If I was an American, I would vote for him.

This thread is about voting for an American political candidate, which non citizens can't do. You're not an idiot, Kiechi. You know what I was saying.

Why does it matter? Seriously.

Private companies own the cameras that catch speeders at red lights as well.

I personally don't give a damn that private companies own the polling machines.

The media circus around the elections and speeches from candiates (especially Republican) are getting more twisted and nastier. The actual policies are getting lost between the lines, the run down to elections is degenerating into who can scream the loudest and throw the most amount of dirt at the opponent. Truth is probably the main victim in all this. I don't understand why McCain is being promoted by Republicans as a master of change when he stands for exactly the same kind of policies supported by Bush.

One of the funniest (and saddest) sound bites I heard was Cindy McCain telling a CNN reporter that Sarah Palin had foreign policy experience because Alaska was the closest U.S. state to Russia, geographically.

The sadder thing is that there is probably a voter out there who buys it.

This isn't about who is more intelligent than who. It's about you stating something and not backing up your opinion. This is the reason I call you a ****ing idiot. You can't spell or type a coherent sentence and when asked to back up your opinion intelligently, you run away.

Thank you for proving my point that you're an idiot.

You're the kind of person that hears people talking about something and that becomes your opinion. You get something in your head and instead of actually researching it or educating yourself, you spew your unintelligent opinion without a base of fact. And then when confronted, you try to run from the situation by saying "I don't have to prove myself."

You're a ****ing tool.

Alaska is eventually going to be drilled, either in the next 10 years or the next 40 years

Personally, I don't want to see it drilled until other oil reserves are used up

I want gas prices to keep rising, I would actually be very happy to see prices hit $9 or $10 a gallon because it will put the pressure on us to finally get serious about alternative energies. The thing about alternative energies is that it doesn't completely matter if the technology is all there or not, because it will take a national effort to replace gas stations with places to charge your car, and build a bunch of nuclear power plants

I think you might find these two interesting:

I liked the second article, finally McDonald's can be used for something good. I agree, there are so many alternatives around, it wouldn't be hard to switch from Middle East oil with so many options, what's needed is a change in culture.

I'm going to vote for the same person I always vote for. Trusty old nobody. Usually I feel that all candidates suck.

WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

You, Cain, of all people should not be talking.

You're the tool of all tools.

If Ecojeanne was a socket wrench, you'd be a ****ing table saw! Ya powertool! *slaps on the back, making you spill your beer all over yourself*

---

Is she sucking you off?

And now McCain's adopted Obama's "Change!" catchphrases.

The circus continues. With Bush endorsing him I reckon it should be "Had enough? If not, vote for me".

Oh, and vote for obama.

Obama is leading in the US opinion polls according to poll tracker

[url]http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_depth/629/629/7360265.stm[/url]

More and more socialism.

More and more big government.

More and more taxes.

Less and less freedom for the people.

Sure, vote Obama.

I don't even know how you get that assumption, considering the republicans started to act more and more like the democrats.

Traditionally it would make more sense for Democrats to spend more because they're taxing so much. Big government needs more money for spending and keeping the "machine" oiled and running.

Republicans, tradtionally being fiscally conservative, were about small government, which meant Big government didn't need so much money to exist, so they against unnecessary taxing. The problem is that republicans as of recent have been spending like democrats without taxing the people so it's put them, and us in the hole. You can't have both, it, it f*cks everything up.

To anyone who is not an American citizen-

Don't ever give your opinion on American politics again, tell us who to vote for or how to run our country

Thanks!

The rest of the world wouldn't have an opinion if America didn't insist on interfering with the rest of the world spreading so called 'democracy'

I'm just kind of annoyed because earlier today I was reading peoples comments on North Korea, and non-Americans were saying dumb shit like "They should have invaded N. Korea but since they have nukes they didn't cause they're a bunch of pussies" and other stuff like that

If America helps another country, we're the bad guys.

If America sits back and lets shit happen, we're the bad guys.

Make up your ****ing minds.

'help' you mean helps themselves

Yeah, that's it.

People will be mad at us initially once we stop "helping" the rest of the world, but eventually they'd forget about hating us and hate someone else who steps up to the plate. We'd just have to give up our super power status. Not that that's saying much anymore.

Just look at Sweden.

It's not something you can just "give up" Fras

I think the bigest problem is that US (just like many other countries today) helps others only when it can get a benefit (ussually double benefit) for self. One of the reasons why nothing is being done in Sudan. That kind of help on many occasions causes more problems than it solves in foreign countries which are not on US soil for people who are not US citizents. There is a reason why some people are not happy.

Alright, that's my "US hate speech" for the day, I'll go back to exploring Montreal now :)

I see nothing wrong with the US helping other countries only when it benefits us as well. We spend OUR money to help these countries. Why the hell should we help and spend our money when we get nothing out of it?

Because that kind of help is often to secure US financial interests only and it creates more problems than it solves. It's a kind of help that starts conflicts and then puts US in a position where they have to intervene millitarily in order to secure assetts.

'helping' is the nice name America uses for exploiting....why does there have to be a catch?
