Possible Presidential Canidates for 2008

[lordblazer]

He's black...and in this country that automatically disqualifies him for President. Not saying this country is racist...but let's face it, this country is going to have to be a hell of a lot more diverse to give any chance for a black man to have even 10% of the votes.

Yeah I agree but hey I'm black.I can say people like Al Sharptin and Jessie Jackson.People who actually try to run for a gov. office heck even for presidency it has to start from someonewhere and.Yeah i think there won't be any black or female president for a very long time.

edit- not to spam or anything but when I look at bush I see the anti christ himself.Its just scary.I can't trust this man whenever he says a speech.I mean I can tell he's lying nad that hes gonna do things on teh other end of the spectrum.I swear if bush even pulled some stunt to give us our reperation money I would rip my check up mainly because its oil money that troops even some of my family members died for.Hey Doors BTW your more ignorant than a redneck who is apart of the KKK.

[GhandiOwnsYou]

Man, I read the first page of the post expecting the rest of it to run along similar lines, man was i wrong... Now that I read the whole thing....

You know what? Doors? That has got to be the most incredible pile of offensive anti-american rhetoric i've ever come across. I'm quite sure Estonia is the shining beacon of humanity comapred to the US, but really man, come on. America is a Capitalist nation. In a capitalist nation, the whole idea is to build yourself as best you can and enjoy the wealth as best you can. Now I'm sure it'd be a lovely world if all those of us that came out ahead gave all of our cash to the people that don't care enough to get ahead, but that would kind of defeat the purpose of getting ahead in the first p[lace, wouldn't it? America popped itself out of obscurity, worked it's way up the world ladder of power, and sits now as the big fat slob america you talk about. of course, because we would still be sitting high, because we are ALL useless polluting fat slobs.

What exactly are we doing wrong then? We went to Iraq, what a grave sin. You've got a guy in power dictating over his entire country and killing all those who oppose him. Sound like a real charming chap to me, i'd love living in that type of society. Revolution is bloody. That's what builds governments that allow peace and prosperity for future generations. yeah, a nicve chunk of the population hates this idea. so did loyalists, in our own revolution, which were a tidy little chunk of our own population. We are trying to help another people overthrow a ruler that a good portion of the population was dissatisfied with. God forbid, we horrible horrible egotistical bastards.

The cars, pollution, food, etc? like i said, we are CAPITALISTS. this is what you do. you get money, you enjoy money, you enjoy your life. if two cars makes someone happy, sho. lets go with that. he's only driving one at a time anyway, so how does having two create more pollution than having one? oh, his wife might drive it. except that would save pappy the trip to drive wifey around, and it would even out anyway. We can afford food, we eat food, simple as that. pollution? everyone pollutes. the second you start typing on that keyboard you aid in pollution because of the chemicals that were used to form that plastic.

You can have your opinions, i'm not trying to tell you to welcome america with open arms. But do NOT start blatantly insulting an entire country on the generalized opinions you seem so fond of.

[Harvest Moon]

By 2008 the democratic party system will be all but forgotten, in it's place the republic shall create a universal voting option that the whole world can be involved in but you'll inevitably be screwed over anyway. Behold dear readers, the canidates of 2008!

Harvest Moon.

"I rule you."
The communist partician, Harvest Moon has nothing to lose and everything to gain from this election. He promises to make the world a better place IE: We live like the smurfs. Mass genocide against Europe is nesscary for this plan to succeed though. Why Europe? 1: There's alot of people in Europe and communism can only work for small groups. 2: They killed rock music. (David Bowie.) 3: They killed comedy. (Mr. Bean.) Marshal law will develop and it'll bassicaly be every man for themself. Harvest Moon has only the "anyone but Bush" thought pattern to rely on.. About the only good that will come with his presidency is more enviormental regulations (Sense technology and or capitalism is banned..) resulting in a cleaner more productive planet. Also you'll get a cool t-shirt..

George W. Bush.

"I have stradegery!"
Good ol' impirealism, will you ever seice to amaze us?! Turns out Bush DID find those wmds.. there were in the same place as all our missing socks, DIMENSION-X!!! How did a primitive enemy like the Iraquis learn how to rip a hole in space-time to hide thier nuclear warheads there? Beats me, but Bush seems to think they have thier ways.. Bush'es plan to secure the nation once and for all is the destruction of the middle-east. One of those bastards killed Jesus and now it's payback time! You can expect a crusade afterward.. But healthcare and social security will flourish.

Walt Disney.

"KEEP THE MOUSE IN THE HOUSE!"
What's this?! Wasn't he dead?! WAS being the key word. In the year 2006 Walt Disney was unfrozen and rejuvanated. By 2008 his popularity grew by some thinking he was the last scion do to cheating death. Unlike the other canidates who rely either on a strong sturdy military force or black magick, Walt Disney thought ahead and made himself into a cyborg-like entity with an arm that can transform into a shotgun! Walt Disney wants to bring back national socialism. So bassicaly death to everyone and everything that aint white. He believes this was how mankind was originaly intended to be. "Look at primitive culture and theories of the future, in both scenarios the white race is supreme and there is hardly any indication of an outside culture." What Walt fails to tell you is "history of primitive culture" is really taped episodes of The Flinstones and "theories of the future" is The Jetsons on a dvd box set.. However him as Earth's president WILL cure cancer and various other diseases. "We just needed them to get rid of the darkies, now we can live forever!"

Kong the 3rd.

The Korieans managed to keep Kong in power as when his body immideatly died they implanted his brain into a primate's and the dna was compatible with that of a human brain and they succesfuly saved kong. However things were amiss as incase this project had failed Kong was already in the works of developing a clone. Enter the first two-man party: King Kong and Lupin the 3rd. They thought that using these names to differntate the two was somehow clever and funny.. They try to appeal to the young crowd and offer nothing to the political field exsept the garantee that all humans will die so the planet can further evolve as it should. Bassicaly the only party more independant then Harvest's..

Heh, I know.. I'm morbid..

[Resha]

Well, I always thought that Hillary Clinton would be the perfect choice...
I mean, mainly because she's Bill's wife and I think everyone liked Bill.

But people tell me "NO WAY! Americans hate Hillary!" and I really want to know if that's true. I mean, wouldn't she have Bill Clintons support and advice if she became president? And wouldn't people LIKE that?

Since lots of you are Americans, clue me in. Why do people hate her? *If they do!*

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

I don't really have a problem with Hillary Clinton, so I can't really say.

[Jebus]

Hillary Clinton gives off a REALLY bad vibe. Just look at her when she smiles. There's something behind that that scares the hell out of me.

I hope McCain gets the nomination for his party in 2008, cause unless someone like Barak Obama gets the Dem ticket, that's the only person I can see myself voting for.

That or Jon Stewart.

[nik0tine]

Everyone around here hates both Hillary and Bill. I personally, think that Hillary is the Democratic parties last chance at gaining any sort of political influence ever again. The Republicans have the christians marching blindly in line with them. If the Democrats can't pull it off in 2008, it's over. I don't know what i'll do if that happens. A republican reign is going to end up killing alot of people, and destroying America's sense of freedom as well.

[Jebus]

Not if McCain gets the nomination. He's more centrist than most Republicans.

But seriously though. Hillary is not their last chance. Once he gets some experience, Barak Obama is going to have a LOT of support. Just about everyone I know likes him, and I live in a predominantly conservative area.

Still, I hop Hillary doesn't win. She scares the hell out of me.

[The Captain]

Thing about Hilary is that I wouldn't put it past her to actually have a fair shot at winning. She somehow won the NY Senate Race by showing that she had real ideas and ways to fix them, and has for the most part.

"I personally, think that Hillary is the Democratic parties last chance at gaining any sort of political influence ever again. The Republicans have the christians marching blindly in line with them. If the Democrats can't pull it off in 2008, it's over. I don't know what i'll do if that happens. A republican reign is going to end up killing alot of people, and destroying America's sense of freedom as well."

I wouldn't worry too much about this. Politics is very, very cyclical. For the first 60 years of last century, Democrats essentially ruled this country in the House and Senate. Then, the power became more balanced for a while and now it's shifted more to the Right. As is probably the case, there will come a time when the Republicans will either make a wrong move with their policies and turn off a lot of voters, or the Democrats will find a strong enough candidate to shift the power back. If the USA continues to alienate the rest of the world, this shift back to the middle will occur soon, unless everyone in this country wants the US to decline.

Though I'm happy to see the elections in Iraq went well, I'm still not at all convinced that democracy will flourish there. As I heard someone say on the Daily Show last night about the Bush Administration:
"One good day does not make up for years of blunders."

I think sooner or later one of these old blunders, or perhaps a new one if they continue to use their same policies, will come back to haunt them and the country will shift back to the middle instead of being predominantely conservative.

For now, the Liberals will have to roll with the punches, but not give up the fight. Continue to get your voices out there, your opinions on issues known and I fully expect the country to balance out again before long.

Take care all.

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

I do hope balance is acheived soon, I've been hearing frightening things about the appointment of justices that are conservative, which bothers me greatly.

[Dignified Pauper]

I don't understand what people's problem is with Hillary R. Clinton. So what if she is a Clinton. If people would read her biography, they may not hate her so much. They've nothing to hate about her anyways. People feel empathy for her, it was her husband who committed a personal crime, not her. (Besides, Clinton was one of the greatest presidents of all time. People claim Bush Sr.'s plans on good economy, they really need to look into the facts. ) If you read Hillary's bio, you'd realize that she's an impressive resume, one that rivals Condoleeza Jemima Buttersworth Rice (XD). Condi would be an excellent choice for the Republican nomination for president, if Hillary is selected. It would be historic, and much of America loves Rice. (NOT THIS AMERICAN).

Hillary Clinton gives off a REALLY bad vibe. Just look at her when she smiles. There's something behind that that scares the hell out of me.

*points to a photo of Rice and Bush*

Kerry still holds a chance in 2008's election.

Gore, not a chance, after people got tired of his rantng in florida, even though he was right.

Jeb Bush, a VERY likely candidate. You know Condi would still be in power under him, and the corruption of the Bush family would have another 4 years to stew in the profits of controlling America for their personal agendas.

Rudi Giuliani, another good candidate. He did a lot for the city of New York, a lot of good, that is. As President, I think he'd restart the country on a good track, so long as the next presidents follow him.

[Jebus]

I'm not saying I like Bush and Rice. *shudder* Just that I really don't like Hillary.

Plus McCain is one of the few Republicans I'd consider voting for, since he's more moderate. That's as close to liberal as the Republicans get by the way.

...For some reason that reminded me of Ann Coulter. God I hate her so much. "Liberals are the cause of everything that ever goes wrong. If it weren't for liberals we'd live in a perfect society" [/paraphrase] Yeah, if it wereb't for us it'd be a "perfect" world were women's only use was cooking food and spitting out babies, and everyone with any power would be rich white Christians.

Not only that, but every argument, with her involved, degenerates into childish name calling from her side. God I hate her.

Sorry about the rant. I just got angry for a sec.

[Dignified Pauper]

Does anyone have a REAL reason to not like Hillary....

what's that i hear... a pindrop?

That's what I thought.

[Resha]

People don't really seem to have a substantial reason to hate Hillary. Excluding bad vibes.

[Jebus]

Yeah. And I've learned to trust those vibes. I got the same feeling from Kerry and both Bushes.
