Presidential opinions

[Kiwon]

As bad as CNN is, CNN International is even worse. It's the only English channel I can get and the anti-American slant is 24/7. Just pathetic.

Oh come on Kiwon.....Castro is not running the network....you just think so.

You're right. It's in English, not Spanish.

Definitely liked Huckabee. Thompson is conservative through and through, but just didn't look with it.

McCain lost me at the waterboarding and Geneva Convention issues. We never would've gotten the intel from Khalid Sheikh Muhammed if he knew we wouldn't do stuff like that.

Ron Paul is an absolute idiot. He may be a whiz to cut domestic waste, but to say how great it was after we left Vietnam is mind numbingly stupid.

i was only a teenager when we pulled out of SE Asia, but I remember the millions of refugees who fled and the thousands who died trying. I remember a little crackpot named Pol Pot, who with the Khmer Rouge butchered millions. Remember Pol Pot, Ronnie! This man is inherently dangerous if made POTUS.

Romney sounded better, but still can't bring myself to vote for him.

Huckabee was the most articulate and did the best. But I DETEST his merit scholarships for illegal alien's kids. That bothers me.

Giuliani definitely looks like a leader, but his initial attack on Romney was childish.

CNN is a pathetic shill for the left. The gay ex-general was found to be a volunteer for Hillary's campaign. The Log Cabin Republican questioner has on his blog that he's an Obama supporter. The goofy young woman who asked about who's criminal in an abortion was found to be an Edwards supporter. And finally, the mom from Pittsburgh who asked about lead in toys is a union rep. and an Edwards' backer.

If the GOP had ONE plant in a Dem. debate on Fox, the MSM would absolutely HOWL.

My top 5:
1) Huckabee
2) Giuliani
3) McCain/Thompson
4) Duncan Hunter (very conservative, but just won't make the cut).

Governors have to make practical decisions. Not sure what you are talking about specifically, but the question I've read about is whether children of illegal immigrants should be entitled to attend public school. What is a governor supposed to do? He is not empowered to do a massive deportation. And who benefits from generating hundreds of thousands of uneducated street urchins?

It looks like Romney will win the nomination. The Romney-Clinton camgaign is going to be ugly, ugly.

I'm afraid that Huckabee will finish where nice guys are supposed to.

His English is better than you think.

It wasn't about public education, it was about merit scholarships for college, plus in-state tuition breaks for illegal alien children. The same breaks those legal citizens have.

It's not the state gov'ts. job to deport, of course, it's the feds. It's record at deportation has been horrible for the last 20 years.

I can't vote for Billary. Romney comes across too smooth (sometimes that's great, sometimes it seems like a used car salesman approach). Huckabee comes across as more of a genuine guy, but I have to learn more about his track record and his positions before I vote for him.

By the time WI votes, the nomination may already be decided. The primaries are all so frontloaded in the year we might as well have a nat'l primary day.

The Iowa caucuses start just 3 days after the Packers reg. season ends.

We should have a national election that is either on the weekend or is a national holiday.

Ron Paul. I like a guy with two first names, and the fact that he wants to get rid of the IRS.

Ron Paul? I thought it was Ru Paul running for the Republican nomination.

I am all for that, quite a few people don't have the ability to get out of work during reg. voting hours or have to wait in long lines once they do get there.

I doubt they would make election day a federal holiday since there are already two in the month of November. An idea I heard Dan Rather suggest back in 2000 was that polls would open at 6:00 AM EST and would stay open until 6:00 AM EST the next day. That way, no matter what shift you work, there would be time to make it to the polls.

Hahaha!! Have you seen the little old ladies that run the polls? They ain't gonna be hangin' out at 3 a.m. so that people can vote. Little old ladies rule the world I've decided.
