I'm voting for Ron Paul, so I'm not undecided.

I'm undecided on the candidate I will support, but I'm clearly decided on NONE OF THE ABOVE.

Might vote for the green party candidate. Maybe do the usual and pick some obscure third party candidate purely as a protest vote against the major parties.

This kind of does it for me. Obama won't even put his hand over his heart during the national anthem, nor would he say it. How can a presidential candidate not show full respect to the nation they are trying to run?!?

Once again it is the a choice between the lesser of 2 evils.

I don't relly think a man who won't say the pledge deserves to be on the ballot... that and if he is elected don't expect to have any $ to buy parts. It will all be going to the government in increased taxes!!

McCain/Palin ... she is a bit of a cougar. Plus McCain's wife is a drifter.

If ron paul made the ballot I would be totally for him. But I cant legitimatly support the republicans anymore. So Im going democratic. 4 more years of bush's policies but simply carried on by a different person just seems rediculous to me.

Obama Biden for sure.. For many reasons.

But at the very least, who among you thinks Palin is ready to head up the country if anything happens to the 72 year old(with health issues) running for president?

No less ready that Obama... I'd rather have inexperience in the VP seat.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...
 
It's time for change in this country and I don't think you're gonna see it with the McCain ticket. MCcain didn't start this whole change things until recently when he was down about 10% from Obama. I'm olded enough to have voted since Ronald Reagan took office and I've ALWAYS voted republican. This time it will be different. People need to get into politics a little more to know who they are voting for. Voting for McCain because he wife drifts is just wrong. McCain will be just like bush if not worse. The guy was a POW for 6 years. Who would have more of a grudge with the world than McCain? Listen to his speeches. Foreign policy is almost always at the top of his priorities. We need to solve things diplomatically, not being so eager to go to war like Bush. This thing with Georgia & Russia is getting hotter. If Georgia becomes a member of NATO and is attacked by Russia, WE WILL goto war with Russia under the NATO policies. Did anyone listen to the one on one speech with Sarah Palin? She was awful when interviewed. She didn't even know what the Bush Doctrin was. She was just as eager to goto war with Russia. Between the commericals of McCain videos of him as a POW & Palin's hockey Mom crap, i'm sick of it. When this woman is unscripted without a teleprompter in front of her with a speech written for her, she scares me. And this who thing about Experience is just crazy. McCain has experience, but experience making the wrong decisions. He's voted with Bush 90% of the time. If you like the way things are now, vote for McCain.

Understand who you're voting for before you do it.

Thats your prerogative, but Obama is far from inexperienced.

Here is more to chew on about Palin(there are many serious issues with this person and her history, it will all come out and it will boggle peoples minds why they chose her):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7Coy1OAQXY


And I'm sick of hearing the "Experience" thing thrown out there. It's just a cover for some deeper issues people have for not wanting to vote for Obama(I'll leave that alone, but I think the point is clear). Here is some info on Obama's "Experience"(I'll choose this person over any other we have to choose from):

http://www.obamapedia.org/page/Does+...dent%3F?t=anon

If you say it's biased.. well yes, it should be, it's factual information about a candidate for the presidency of the United States of America. So if there is good factual info regarding the positive "Experience" from McCain/Palin.. let's see it.

john 09-12-2008 07:53 PM

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...
 
I cannot imagine if Palin was in office. She has been a governer since 2006! That is it. I guess you can count her experience as a mayer also huh...

She has no international experience and just seems stupid IMO. There is a reason that she won't take on one-on-one interviews. The McCain party doesn't even think she is ready.

When you are in a position of even governer, you should answer questions that the public has for you. We are paying your wage, you should be able to answer some questions.

As far as McCain goes, he is a horrible speaker. There isn't any power behind his words. He seems to have the "feel sorry for me" campaign going on trying to secure votes. At the RNC, all they talked about was him as a POW and that he has served in the armed forces. If you like a poor economy and a country at war, vote McCain.

Obama is giving alot of false promises, such as "ending nato" when then he called the pissed off foreigner's and told them he was saying it for votes, and to not worry.

His "uncle who liberated auschwitz in WWII" theres 2 things wrong with that.

I recieved an email from my mother a couple weeks ago explaining the increased taxes everyone would face under obama, and yes, it effects EVERYONE from $20k a year to $2mil a year. they will be damn near doubled on the $20k-$60k people.

McCain.

I didn't say anything about "Experience" in particular. I just said is she ready to head up this country? I am questioning her intelligence, general truthfulness, her trait for abusing power, her religious beliefs, and more, but along with the rest, yes, I will question her experience as well. If you look into this person, it's just plain scary to say the least(this is all on top of McCain's same old Bush policies.. it's amazing they are getting soo much traction).

Matt Damon agrees with me. :P

And just to throw this out there, Sarah Palin tried to make herself look good and lied to the country when she told everyone she sold the Alaska state jet on ebay for a profit. She put it on ebay 3x. #1 it sold but not on ebay #2, they actually lost about $500,000. They eventually just sold it to the highest bidding person.

That's the one on one interview that I was talking about. The whole country needs to see this video. She is so terrible in this interview it's pathetic. She's in a high class job interview that's gone wrong. Is this a woman that's ready to lead the country in the event that something happens to Mccain?

I'm watching CNN right now as a matter of fact and their talking about Palin being very uncomfortable and struggling bad in the questioning. "She may be a good governor, but she's not ready to take on VP" Is what was said.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...
 
It scares the shit out of me to hear someone say we "must not blink" even in reference to who we target in the 'War on Terror.' Even worse is she said we must EXERCISE all options in the war on terror. How about we must weight the evidence and choose the most appropriate option(s)? That's really a bold and frightening statement.

Honestly I've never had a big problem with McCain. I won't support him, but he hasn't seemed like a completely unreasonable guy. Palin on the other hand seems like a black and white world view zealot.

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This woman is playing a video game here with the world.

This is a VERY important voting year. For those members on here that are newly eligible, Go out and VOTE in November!!! Know who you are voting for. Don't vote one way because your family and friends vote for that candidate. Do what you think is best for the country.

Re: I just want to take a quick poll...
 
Just a couple of questions.

What experience does Obama have again? I think we can skip community organizer as being any sort of resume builder for the big chair in DC. And 2 years in the Senate while putting together his own campaign might be a stretch. How is it allowed that voting in the senate includes a "present" option and not just a yea or nea ?

Why will he not answer any questions about some of his friends, collegues etc? And why is he still friends with some of them? Examples. Rev. Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers and Bernadin Dohrn.

How does Biden's 30+ years in the Senate fit into the "change" campaign?

My favorite is when somebody says you should go out and educate yourself before you vote but then quotes a big news network or bogus poll. First look at who owns the network or media or poll and then check out who they are endorsing.

Oh and for those who look at the polls for any sort of factual data...who is it that is not 10 points behind anylonger?
