If this topic has been brought up, then please advise me.

If any of you know me personally, you understand I am not a normal LU student. I am not a republican, nor a theologian, and can often times argue about anything stupid as long as I can get someone riled. But, after watching this, I could never support hardly any of these candidates. The questions were good, but some were just dumb. I loved Johnathon Edwards answers on Faith, but hate his health care plan. Hilary, once had serious consideration from me until she opened her mouth. Every answer was politically driven to hurt our current administration. I watched the debate while I was in Mexico for my honeymoon, and the people there were so happy about a new democratic president, and they all told me they were hoping Hilary could win so they could come to the US.......

I like the idea of having Mexicans coming over, they make our lives easier.....but I am now voting Republican or Obama after all her B&^LS^$#

throw your vote away and vote for a 3rd party. That's what I plan on doing.

Knowing where you've been the past week, I was reading and thinking, "Oh, please, no, don't say he did that..." And come to find out, you answered my question. I'm disappointed, Josh. There should've been a different kind of debating going on.

The YouTube gimmick was awful. But then again, little in these debates is watchable.

But congratulations on the nuptials. Married life is a good thing ... especially when you marry a Texan.

I'll be throwing my vote away as well, LUconn. I've taken the "lesser of two evils" route for the last time.

Before you vote Obama, please direct your attention to the thread entitled, "Sex Ed for Kindergarteners 'Right Thing to Do,' Says Obama"

Even the Republicans are too liberal for me. How does Obama get considered with his Muslum background???? Is there anyone who is man enough to stand up for morals and values, and not eb and flo with opinion??? Will anyone have the backbone Jerry had to speak up????

don't you think you should wait on committing to throw away your vote until you at least see the ticket? there's only a few people running that i would vote for, but i'm not declaring my vote until we get past primaries.

No. Unless Ron Paul gets the Republican nomination, I won't be voting for anyone from the GOP. I won't vote for a member of the modern Democratic party as long as my heart is still beating.

YOUTUBE, TAKE TWO Few GOP Candidates Commit to Debate
Friday, July 27, 2007

Four days after the Democratic debate in Charleston, S.C., more than 400 questions directed to the GOP presidential field have been uploaded on YouTube, as Republicans are scheduled to take their turn at video-populism on Sept. 17.

But only Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) and Rep. Ron Paul (Tex.) have agreed to participate in the debate, co-hosted by the Republican Party of Florida in St. Petersburg.

"Aside from those two candidates, we haven't heard from anyone else," said Sam Feist of CNN, which is co-sponsoring the debate with the popular video-sharing site.

Should we throw our votes away, or should we try and help third party candidates become a viable force...granted, I know hell will freeze over before one wins, but often times it takes a third party to get the two major parties to realize they're losing part of their base and they need regroup and re-prioritize.

With that said, I declare my candidacy for president. I'm 100% pro-life, 100% for our military, I favor increasing the strength and value of the dollar, reducing the trade deficit, begin the privitization of Social Security, reforming welfare so it helps the people who want to work instead of penalizing them, and being single so the press doesn't have any distractions from the issues :P

And no, I will not pardon Michael Vick or Lindsay Lohan if either one or both are found guilty.

Muslims are not always heard or seen in the best light....look at Morocco, a Muslim country that tries to express in every way (other than violence) to christians that they want to be peaceful.....There are extreme Muslims just like extreme Christians....Don't profile people....

You know why Obama said that about kindergarten sex education, because nobody tells their kids about sex.....

I think there's enough people who just simply won't vote for Hillary that she won't win no matter who she picks as her running mate. The "dream team" would be Obama with Clinton as his running mate.

her ego is way too big to take a VP nomination. no chance she would take that. i think the best chance is Fred Thompson, I like what i've seen so far from him

That's not the dream team. That's a black and a woman. Nowhere on that ticket is a white man. America's open for change, just not that fast.


The dream team is Gore/Obama if they can get Gore to run.
