Politics! Options

I've considered making this thread for a long time but avoided it b/c not every member is from America and might be left out. Still, I'll go on.

Who are you supporting for the presidential race of 2008 in the U.S? If you want, you can also discuss members of politics in other countries as well if you feel others might follow you (lot's of aussies on the board!)

Also, is there anyone you would just hate to see leading your country? I want to know who the fans of live want to run the country!

I'll look at the overall picture and see what the objectives are. The economy and international policy are the primary factors to focus on. Odds are, based on what I've heard from all of the current candidates, that I will not be voting Republican. It's not that the Democratic platform is flawless, it's that it is way better than anything the Republicans stand for right now.

Politics is a total joke in this country. It is a shame that citizens are so stupid they vote blindly and strictly on party lines, regardless of what the candidate stands for or has done. People also base their vote completely on miniscule factors like abortion, when deciding who will be running an entire country. There are bigger issues for a commander and chief to worry about. Failing to recognize that is dumbfounding.

As a person facinated with history I truely believe that when everything is settled and history is written this current administration will be reflected upon as the most corrupt and ineffective one to date.
