Would he legalize polygamy? How much do religious views influence politics in the USA? -R |

Well, to his benefit, there's an extra 'm'. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Years of thorough research have revealed that what people find beautiful about the Mandelbrot set is not the set itself, but all the rest. |

He doesn't seem like a bad guy. Of course, no one really cares for Bush these days. My vote is for Arnold though... ------------ |

Have they changed that law that requires the President to be born in the US? -- |

Secular Progressives are no longer allowed to lead this country. They're all Satan worshipping gay lovers! |

1890 Manifesto. Congratulations, welcome to 1890. Seriously people, Mormon does not imply polygamous, nor does polygamous imply Mormon (just like Islam does not imply terrorist, Atheist does not imply intellectual, Jewish does not imply businessman, etc.) EDIT: As for Mitt Romney, unless he can give me a reason not to vote for him, he has my vote. (Several reasons; shares my stance on abortion, seems to be fiscally responsible, != Hillary Clinton (Obama could possibly sway me, not that it would matter, as I live in the most Republican district in the whole country), seems to understand that an immediate withdrawal from Iraq could not necessarily be the best thing (as most of the Democratic candidates seem to be pushing for) (well, it would probably be fine for the US, but when Iraq goes to hell due to the Iraqi government collapsing further than it is already, it won't exactly help anyone; We made the mess, we should probably clean it up.) etc.)

What about a puppy? A puppy as president could make America look a little less...bully-ish. Plus, a puppy is more loyal and doesn't make as many decisive choices. ------------ |

http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2006/12/24/romney_left_mass_on_212_days_in_06/ Romney's announcement proclaims him the former governor of Massachusetts. My article claims he spent more time outside Massachusetts than in last year. Do you really want an absentee president? I would rather have a moderate. BTW, I'm from Massachusetts. By reading this sig, I, the reader, agree to render my soul to Bob Keane. I, the reader, understand this is a legally binding contract and freely render my soul. |

Also for a country which touts itself as a beacon of justice and democracy it sure doesn't have much of it |

I dunno about Mitt Romney... I don't think I'd want him as the president.

Quote: And here is the current stance on the subject [mormon.org] Hahaha, so Mr. Joe wrote an addendum to the Bible that said that God authorized plural marriages in some cases (especially for himself!). That is classic. So luckily if I'm Mormon, I can claim that God has authorized plural marriages for me! It's quite interesting that the church got this "revelation" to quit authorizing polygamy during the same time the federal government was saying that Utah couldn't be a state if they practiced polygamy. |

Hehe, I misread the title as "A Moron President?". Couldn't figure out why Phipps raised the question, with the world-wide consensus on this -- |

From this side of the world, Obama seems the best choice to us.. |

Obama has the best chance a non-white has ever had, but I doubt he will win because most of the African-American community don't consider him "black" because he was raised by his white mom who didn't have ancestors who were enslaved by Americans at some point. Also, he comes from a chiefly Democratic state, so that won't help him pick up any easy electoral votes. However, he will benefit from the "anybody but Clinton" mindset. |

I'm not sure I see why people are so against Clinton, the last time she was in office, she did a bang up job. Got the economy up, and didn't start any wars. -- |
