who do u think will win US presidential election of 08

[Pygoscelis]

As odd as it may sound, and even though I'm as anti-Bush as they come, I don't see a Republican win in '08 as being horrific. I seriously doubt it will be remotely the same people as Bush's crew. I think during the election the party will distance itself as much as possible from that regime, given the approval poll numbers.

This isn't a president that can have one of his crew run and win the presidency after he is gone.

If it goes back to the republicans as they were pre-Reagan, it may not be bad at all. They were once a decent party.

I could say the same about the Democrats. They used to be a decent party too. You could go a step further and say that American politics in general used to be decent. However, the political parties of today are handicapped by special interests and partisan deadlock. I think the time is ripe for a third party, but unfortunately the American people seem to fear major change until given no other choice.

I had hope for the Democrats, until this "nonbinding resolution" garbage. Talk about spineless. I have no faith in them now. The US needs a complete political overhaul.

I apologize, I was not speaking with a right tone, but...why would you vote for a man who supported the Iraq war and still does? What views both Domestically and Internationally do you feel that he will do right?

Re: who do u think will win presdential election of 08

None of the people you mentioned are Republicans, Edwards, Clinton, and Obama are all Democrats. I don't know who will win the election, its anyone's guess. It seems the Democratic Party is all fired up though and quite popular at the moment. However, their 2006 Congressional victory seems to be based on the fact that the Republican base, Evangelical Christians, withheld their vote due to corruption scandals, Pastor Haggard scandal, and of course Iraq invasion. But if the Republicans use this time to clean up their image and restore their original ideals, they will probably win back the Evangelicals, and therefore win the presidential election come 2008. I think Giulianni will most likely be the next American president. I hope he does get elected, because his hardline and anti-Islamic stance will hopefully make more Muslims realize that America is the enemy, and Evangelical Christianity is the greatest assault launched by Satan to date.

You are aware that this whole America is the enemy thing is just paranoid insanity fueled by the Beber-Wars where Americans had attacked muslim bebers for pirating American Ships. Ever since then, most muslims (and almost all conservative muslims) have seen Americans as that same image seen by the bebers.

There is a muslim representative in the Lower Legislative Branch in the United States. Why would the United States be an enemy of Islam if it is willing to have Islam as a part of its law making?

And if someone is taking over country and not persecuting you because of your faith, then they aren't an enemy of your faith. The conquest of Jordan by Syria should be looked as the same as a conquest of Jordan a non-muslim state. If you believe people are equal before god then they will have no reason to persecute you. And without a reason, their actions will be antagonized throughout the world and so the world shall turn against them. As long you turn against those that don't seek to persecute, you will always be an enemy to the establishment of your own faith. You risk its innocence with blood and prevent the peace of god to be established by their being more blood spilled. Violence only makes more violence. And as long is there is violence, there can never be peace.

With John Edwards wife being diagnosed with cancer again, this will give Edwards a slight jump in the polls, and depending on what happens to Elizabeth Edwards in the future, we could see a narrowing of the margin between him and the rest of the Dem pack.

No one should underestimate him IMO, he's done a lot at the grass roots level just like Bill Clinton in New Hampshire I believe, and Clinton came up the ranks to take the nom. I can see Edwards might get the VP nod again.

Hmmm, sadly enough I think it doesnt really matter who will win the elections, same group will be in power, no I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I still think it's a big spectacle, and it's been that way for a long time.

watch "Money masters" - very nice documentary, the best thing about it - it only uses widely acknowledged facts and could give you food for thought.

I think you mean ballot.

Absentee ballad sounds like an old country song.

It is funny but Southern Democrats tend to make better presidents, well in the common era of the United States. Carter and Clinton are both Southern Democrats. Carter is from Georgia and Clinton is from Arkansas. Both are southern U.S. States. (By the way isn't it funny that one of the U.S. States would have the same name as one in Eurasia near Armenia). Bush is from Texas, but that's really a western state more so than a southern State. They have cowboys and big influence on the wild wild west, that's why it is a western state. Reagon is from California and Bush Senior is from Massachusetts. None of these presidents are democrats and none of them are from the true south.

Now out of the present contenders.

: Democrats:
Biden is from Delaware, not a Southern State.
Omaba is from Illinois, not a Southern State.
Hillary is from New York, not a Southern State.
Dodd is from Connecticut, not a Southern State.
Gravel is from Alaska, not a Southern State.
Kucinich is from Ohio, not a Southern State.
Richardson is from New Mexico, though South of most states, it still isn't a true Southern State.
Clark (Possible contender) is from Illinois, not a Southern State.
Gore (Possible contender) is from D.C., a district between the South and the North.
Sharpton (Possible contender) is from New York, not a Southern State.
Edwards is from North Carolina and that is a Southern State.

Edwards is the only reliable contender for the Democratic Party out of all contenders base on how politics are run for the current era of history.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
:Republican:

Brownback is from Kansas, not a Southern State.
Cox is from Illinois, not a Southern State.
Giuliani is from New York, not a Southern State.
Hunter is from California, not a Southern State.
McCain is from Arizona, not a Southern State like New Mexico.
Paul is from Texas, not a Southern State like Arizona and New Mexico. Texas is in the South, but it is really a Western State and not a Southern State.
Romney is from Massachusetts, not a Southern State.
Smith is from Oregon, not a Southern State.

No other contender matters because they obviously aren't and won't run for office. Especially if Giuliani and Romney where their opponents. Talk about YIKES to be a republican.

Anyways Edwards is the only most definite contender that is from the True South like Carter and Clinton before him and therefore is the only reliable contender. (Carter is gone senile due to old age by the way, but that's because he is over eighty or ninety years old). United States has to rely on true Southern Presidents to succeed in the global world or it will be brought down by future Western and Northern Presidents.

The are in Dark Red is the TRUE south of the United States. Those that are in medium red are considered to be a part of the south, but they really aren't because they have such a mix variety of people from the North and West migrating into that area. Those ares that are striped are occassionally considered to be a part of the South. But they are really a part of the North.

Texas really isn't a part of the South. It is populary called a part of the South, because it was a confederate state. But its culture is more West of a mix of New Mexico and Arizona than it is like Lousianna, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and other TRUE Southern States.

Hmmm, sadly enough I think it doesnt really matter who will win the elections, same group will be in power, no I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I still think it's a big spectacle, and it's been that way for a long time.

The only conspiracy in the United States besides the government being afraid of its own citizens is the wealthy keeping their fixed control over the poor. Edwards is a middle-class person. You can bet your top dollar he isn't a part of any conspiracy. Otherwise he would be paid enough to keep his mouth shut.

[Edwards is a middle-class person. You can bet your top dollar he isn't a part of any conspiracy. Otherwise he would be paid enough to keep his mouth shut/QUOTE]

Edwards is a multi-millionaire trial lawyer who got rich suing corporations. He is far from "middle-class".

 

[Cognescenti]

Anyone who believes that recent American military assertiveness is all Bush's idea is just deluding themselves. Indeed, as Bush has suffered in the polls due to the lack of progress in Iraq, he has turned more to multilateralism and negotiation (Iran, NK). His hands have been tied somewhat. If y'all think that McCain or Giuliani are going to be some kind of interantional push-overs should they be elected, you are sadly mistaken. Even Clinton, were she President would be under enormous pressure to respond to an over act of Iranian aggression, even more so, for eg., than if it were to happen under Bush's tenure. Bush has to prove he can negotiate. Clinton would have to prove she can be tough.
