ahh so thats what I should be focusing on public advertisements... all this time I had it wrong thought it was the issues? laugh

thanks Becca, but dont follow me I'm lost too waving



no, what i meant was if you DO find out anything positive as to who is the best candidate you should let everyone else know by displaying a public ad...that way it wont be such a big secret, :smile:


I'm sorry I misunderstood

thats what I'm trying to find out, but notice how one pleads the fifth, another finds humor, you include ridicule in your answer. Oh well maybe I should just start a why me thread? laugh


Don't get me wrong. I'm not pleading the fifth. I just hate both parties. (And no, I don't consider Bob Barr a viable option either.) ohwell


Thanks Wiley - thought you opted silence vs response. respect your decision.

thank god!

say it with me! "Federal Republic!"



I hope you don't think my response was ridicule?


I don't think it even matters. The electoral decides the President/Vice President so contrary to what you may have heard, "every vote" does not count during this election.



Yep. Which makes me laugh at everyone toting their candidate trying to get those votes that don't count.

To be honest, it may or may not. The rules for the electoral college vary from state to state. It all depends on whether the electoral votes in your state are decided based on your vote, or by the elector. They're supposed to be decided by the votes in your state, but that isn't always the case. ohwell

And no problem with that. I just wish they'd quit toting the "every vote counts" each election when clearly every vote does not count.

And the electoral voting against the will of the states isn't checks and balances. It's a perversion of the intent of the electoral college. But hey, as long as your guy wins, right?
