Presidential Candidates

Submitted by Lunchtime on Sun, 01/13/2008 - 21:21

What are your thoughts on the idea of having a female president, Hillary is right up there, hanging tough with the boys. The only problem that I have with her being president is her husband. I don't want to hear about Bill's private parts for the next four years. I think if she makes it, she better cage that monkey up. That is what I think about when I think about his time as president.

Who ever we get in office, please let my paycheck alone. Do something with the money that you already have taken out, I swear the working man is getting poorer and poorer, it does not pay to go to work any more, when they just take, take, take and give it to those that choose not to work. I think as a working person, we should be able to make them answer for this. If you are able to work and you are on welfare and you live where I live, guess what there are plenty of jobs. GO GET ONE, or don't complain about the mexicans taking all the jobs. I am all about helping people, but I like to give a hand up not a hand out. I see too many young people making this a life long thing. Get real, sanction these people, we have training money and they choose not to use it, we buy them cars and they quit their jobs.

I am sorry, but as a taxpayer who is tired of you abusing my tax money, we need some one in office that is going to say to the heads of welfare, get these people working or we are subcontracting your work out.

If someone came to your house and charged you to remodel your kitchen and two weeks later your cabinets fell off the walls, would you not hold the contractor accountable. Same deal, the department of welfare is not doing a good job in my state, this work needs contracted out to some company that can make it work and have positive outcomes. This lifetime on welfare is a crock.

i couldnt agree with you more lunchtime i went though that work certified class with welfare people and i was ready to slap one of them all she did is complain how they were wasteing her time and acting like she was dumb there just wasnt any good jobs and she wasnt working minimum wage. well get in the real world pick up your lazy butt and go looking if you can do better. then she would rub it in how much free stuff she got. she got incentives to go to class and paid on top of that and all she could do was complain and criticise the system. i was always taught you dont bite the hand that feeds you, and i think there should definately be a time limit on how long a person casn be on welfare. another thing is these people who keep haveing a new kid every other year for a bigger check and wic and all the other freebies. after two kids they should be on their own, if they couldnt find a job by the secound one they shouldnt be still haveing them. also the children and youth should start getting into their job ive seen alot of abuse and its convienitly over looked. these kids didnt ask to be born and didnt have the choice so butt heads with parents if thats what you want to call them. sorry but this is a sore subject with me.

sorry i got off the subject when i get in politics it ticks me off. as for hiliary no i wouldnt vote for her she had her chance regardless of what any one says when bill was in she called the shots he just took the credit thats why he had so much free time to fool around.and dont forget they were involved in some shady things before the white house . i think we really need to sit and listen to them all ive heard things from about all of them i dont like it will take a long time for me to decide because our country cant afford another bush or we will be in a world war all over again. i hope everyone decides carefully not just because they are a woman or black or senate rep think and listen closely.

There isnt a person on either side that I could vote for....

As for a female person.. I have no problem voting for a female. However, Hillary is to arrogant for my tastes...

Anyway, unless we get someone in there real quick who is out for the best interests of our country and NOTHING else, we will soon be the leaders of the third world nations.. Our country is in serious, serious shape.

I don't care for Hillary either and I really can not stand Bill either, I am with you on the four years of Hillary being about Bill and his escapades, I can live without that, that is for sure. His whole presidency was based on him and Monica, frankly it is very embarrassing for someone in such a public office like that to act that way. It is sickning. Pretty much ruined the young ladies life, She was young and in a position. I know that she should not have done it but can you imagine the position that she was put into, sad. If that was my daughter...........................................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am not much into politics though but I really feel the urgency of some iron hand to take over. Something for sure is wrong with this country. There should be someone to support law and order and quit all this dictatorship.

Hillary running is essentially Bill running for a third term.

I'm personally behind Romney right now. He's got a great platform, has his priorities straight, is a great public speaker and would be an asset to the white house. Now if only Nute would run with him we'd be set.

I am so unsure about who I would vote right now, have to have a lot more information.

As long as they quit taking money out of my paycheck and doing absolutely nothing with it.

I have no idea yet, they are all still full of bs and lies at this point, they all make promises and don't keep them.

i dont believe any of them at this point but i definately wont vote for hillary who does she think she is critisizeing obama when she has a worse reputation than him. the american people better wake up and pay close attention to what these people are saying you know some things just cant be promised and its foolish for them to stand and say im the right person to get this done huh wheres old peroe?

I am really curious on which website has the correct information on Obama, I have listened to what he has to say, and things sound good, but some state he doesn't even salute the flag, that he turns his back to it because he is Islamic, I am just confused and would love to know the real story

It is tough to decide who is full of bull right now and who is just saying what is need to be said to stay popular and win the votes right now. I don’t like the fact that Hillary is stating that it is a miracle in America that an African American and a woman are actually in the polls, she isn’t on the ballot yet.

I guess I would say that whoever makes it needs to come up with a better way to handle this war and get our troops home. It is time to hand Iraq over to the people now and let them have the helm. We are just a phone call away and I am sure they will have a military base there for years to come. The Americans never really leave a country that they have been at war with.

As far as the election, I don’t want to hear about what they would have done differently, we have not had an attack since 9/11, so something is going right. We somehow seem to forget that 9/11 initiated all this, and if we had more attacks that we would be supporting the hell out of this war. We have made leaps and bounds over there and I do believe that we are making forward progress, I guess it is just not happening soon enough for me. We needs some results and need to get our troops home.

What Obama says is fine but the problem would be hi drug abuse reputation that might put his position at stake. The hullabaloo caused within the party can rip apart the oppositions stand. I really do not know who to trust at all. Everyone one is up and talking against another.

i just dont like all the political crap of degradeing each other like good nature said they should be saying what they can do for us now not in the past or future now is the critical time. all this garbage about cost of barrels of oil is a lot of hot air also. the whole us is in a poor state right now show us dont promise us thats all we heard for years.

i think its all a bunch of political bull show us now not what they could of done in the past or what they can do in the future we are in a sad state of affairs now what can they do now. dont tell us the garbage on the other canidates its show and tell time now. i dont believe hillary can do any more than she did when her so called husband was president as far as im concerned she ran the country then and she should of kicked him to the curb if she really cared . like i said if he was doing his job he wouldnt of had so much free time to have an affair.lets get down to reality and hear what they think they have to offer and what they can actually get done read between the fine lines and they are fine.

Obama is a Christian, not that it should matter.
The flag seems to be a lapse in either judgment, or awareness.

I have used snopes as a starting point for fact checking 6 times, and it hasn't been wrong so far. I always avoid politically oriented blogs and websites...they are often full of erroneous information:

"Dissent is the highest form of patriotism."
"It is impossible to govern without God"
Two "famous quotes" where proof of their utterance by the founding fathers cannot be found.
