That's certainly true :( It's such a stagnant system XD One of my friends once said that the political system in the US was designed by a group of people that were too smart for the rest of the population - perhaps it's true. It's just a political game over the population :(

Fair point XD Still, it doesn't help Barak Obama's image (world-wide, although I imagine it's helping him within America) as a bringer of change - more like a speaker of change, and a man of limited action :(

Well, looks like I was too soon to be optimistic - Mr Chief Republican Banker gets to keep his post :P Same old same old indeed... :(

XD! Under which administration? Reagan, possibly? He did quite enjoy cutting taxes at the expense of the American working classes :P Looks like Obama's actually getting fairly serious, which makes an interesting change. Wouldn't it be glorious if he actually implements serious restraints...

X3 Ah, so it's open like here then ^^ I took Chemistry, Physics, Maths (and then took Further Maths for just this year, and took Geography last year). Fairly similar subjects (well, in Calculus and Physics), and I did want to do Politics XD We can only pick four subjects, though, and...

^_^ Awh XD Still, how does it work subject wise, in the US? What do you study, say, in the year before University?

Pre-Medical route? I'm not sure I follow ^^;

Yup - crazy and rather... poor, really XD For a group of people so well-off, they're so ignorant :P XD And aye! I'm in my final year of sixth form - off to Uni for me, come next September, provided I don't fail all of my exams XD Have you got any plans for after High School?

Oh no... XD The Christian Conservatives have started to air their opinions more strongly again, now XD Always a bad sign, I must say :P Even the Presbyterians are at it XD Hahaha - quite possibly XD Or maybe, he's a dem plant in the GOP XD I'm glad to hear it! :D I've not had anything yet, but...

Is that woman ever out of the news? ¬_¬ XD ;) :D Hahaha - true! XD But still, s/he was the only one to go against alllll of the other Republicans o_O That's pretty brave XD Maybe they were trying to rub-up a Democrat that they liked XD Awh :( Better now?

XD! Oh dear... Still, I guess, it *could* be worse. I think... Oooooh ;) Good ol' Other Trivia :D Very exciting ^^ And XD! Are you surprised, though? One thing did make me laugh - whilst it was, obviously, mostly democrats who voted yes to the Heathcare Bill, one solitary Republican did too. I...
