Post Next President

Anyone care about who will be our next president? John Mcain seems like a good possibility. Last election I was very disgusted by the choices so I din't vote. Terrible I know, but that is what I did.

Personally I was hoping for Trump. I am tired of the old school politicians and think it is time for a change. Get someone from outside the political arena. Someone from private business.

I think Bush is the lesser of the two evils. But either of the two is fine with me, I just want a new president.

Cool

Al Franken wrote a funny book "Why Not Me?". He runs and wins over Gore on one issue, ATM fees. A total fiasco ensues.

Speaking as an Australian, I dont mind who gets the job as long as they dont press that button! We're all having such a great time down here that it would be a shame to end it all before the natural big bang. Whenever that is. Cheers peter

Anyone see Larry King the night he had Ambassador Duke on his show. I'd vote for him in a heartbeat! He'd be the greatest president the US has had in years! (By the way he is a smoking, womanizing, pro gun computer animated creation. One of the funniest things Larry has ever done. After Duke's interview Larry actually got a whole panel of polical anaylists together to discuss how great duke was) But really, I am so disgusted by the choices we have had in the last few years. It is time for a change, time to destroy the old parties who are into this for their own gain only. The GOP and the Dems need to be disbanded or at the very least reorganized. Anyone who believes that our government is for the people any more is fooling themselves. Our two party system is flawed big time. They are secure in the fact they they will be in power the only question is will they be number 1 or 2. They don't care about the common man, they care about the lobbists and the corportations who support them. They have no fear, because they are the only game in town. Give some power to a few more parties and I think you would see a whole new government more concerned about the people who vote them into office, us, the common man/woman. Thanks for letting me rave!

Pete brings up a common frustration (or outrage)...I just wonder why the candidates from the "3rd parties" seem to be way out there. Buchanan and Ventura type guys that just seem to be loose cannons at best.

We only have two real parties in the USA. And while it may seem that they are all the same, you have to admit that philosophically the republican leadership and the democratic leadership are 180 degrees apart. They disagree totally on every key social issue facing our nation: welfare, taxes, abortion, gay rights, etc...this list goes on.

So even though we only have two choices, at least they are clearly distinct.
