Political meanderings continue....Can the world's financial markets be manipulated by a few wealthy individuals\corporations\political factions for political gain? Are there safeguards in place to prevent such manipulations?Does the mass media have more power than the government and corporations? Who acts as a check and balance for the mass media?Are fat British guys allowed in this country without restrictions?Is Boo Rock Oh Bomb A a manipulator who uses people (Rev Wright, Colin Powell) when they are useful, and drops them when they are not(Rev Wright, Bill Ayers)? Does this make him an agent for change or a typical politician?
More political meanderings...POLLS OR PROPAGANDA?Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby PollsMcCain vs Obama 10/23/08http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20081023/ts_nm/us_usa_politics_poll*******************************************************************************************Clinton vs Obama (New Hampshire Primary) 1/07/08http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/nh/new_hampshire_democratic_primary-194.html*******************************************************************************************Note the Numbers of the New Hampshire Primary+13 ObamaActual Results+2.6 ClintonThe new poll gives Obama almost the same lead over McCain as he had over Clinton.The new AP poll has the race almost a dead heat. Something to ponder.
Well at least McCain won your daughter's election.
Ok, I was going to open a new thread about this but, within the last two weeks my oldest, (who is 8, and in 3rd grade) has been telling me that they are learning at school about Voting. (ok, fine in my op.) Anyway, my daughter has been telling me that at recess, the kids are all talking about this election and who they should vote for. The school is going to have a election and the kids at the school are going to have ballots etc.
McCain slaughtered Obama at my kids school.
West Virginia has 1 vote in the bag (at least) for Bob Barr.The choices of a fake Republican and a real Socialist didn't appeal to me.
