Candidate A

Associates with crooked politicians and consults with astrologists. He's had two Mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.

Candidate B

He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C

He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian. He doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be your choice?

I'm sorry I have a life and haven't seen every bit of email on the internet yet.

Sorry for presuming you have one as well.

I'll not make that mistake in the future.

It depends on where they stand on the issues. Seriously. That's all that's relevant. Excpept for the guy who was kicked out of office twice. I'd have to get to the bottom of that story.

By the way, I think the same thing if a candidate has ever run a company a hair's width from bankruptcy (cough... cough... bush).

I'm guessing that the first two are celebrated American presidents and the last is Adolf?

I know. It stopped the repeated spam from your mom appealing to me to watch web video of her and a horse.

You know, the funniest part about those mass emails is how they prey on the truly ignorant. For instance, anyone out there who graduated high school want to explain to trumpt why hitler never cheated on his wife?

Hmmm maybe because he married her on the evening before the allies entered Belrin, and then the two committed suicide the next morning and their bodies burned. AH had a pention for the little girls if I recall correctly though.

I haven't seen this before, and I like it. It shows that "character," at least how it's defined narrowly, isn't what is important.

I'll tell you what giant. I'll gladly let you be an expert on Hitler. Obviously you admire the man and have studied him in depth. It explains why you do what you do with the puppies and neighborhood children.

Why the hell can't you let someone enjoy their own threads. No one told you that you had to vote, respond or anything else. If you thought it something stupid, then ignore it. Your little personal obsession with deriding all things I post is getting a little creepy and weird.

The poll I created is only five days long. It was to share some information, and have some fun. Apparently some people can't tolerate that. If you don't care to vote or state why you are voting as you are, then please don't post in the thread.

Good.

We all learned from Clinton that you can be an excellent president no matter how you handle your private life. In the piece there is nothing about what policies they are gonna have. So I have to agree with Tonton. Only thing that got my attention: Not good idea to have a president that sleeps untill noon. It would be a hell to schedule_meetings.

I wouldn't mind someone from my school board dropping by at all. I'm an adult conversing with other adults. What I do on my off time, especially since I'm not even working this entire month, is my business. You prove a point though. You expect any one you disagree with to conform to some sort of sexual correctness.

Hey Gilsh. I wonder how many teachers have tried pot? I wonder how many have had an abortion since elementary teachers are 95% female and one in four pregnancies ends in abortion. I wonder how many party on weekends or sleep around before they are married, or gasp, act entirely human.

But then again, since no one knows anything about you and what you do. I suppose you can hide in the dark and cast stones.

Now, care address the thread?

Experiment closed.

If the world didn´t offend and got offended as easily as this thread indicates things would be much smoother.
