The next debate is on Tuesday and it is in town hall style format. That means that the audience, not the moderator, ask the questions. If you could ask any question to either candidate what would you ask? I would ask:
|
Senator Obama: Considering the immense deficit that the country has in terms of revenue, do you still plan on putting 18 billion dollars into Global warming research and stem cell research?
|
Wow awful lot of democratic votes, aw well it makes sense considering most of the people here are under 18.
Too bad you guys cant vote, Mccain 08 |
At this point, I'd like to ask the question. Forget the policies on abortion, guns, healthcare, and everything else.
I'd like you guys to answer how you think EITHER of them can solve the economy, which is rapidly falling back to the depression age. Because, though I still support McCain, I seriously think neither one can do anything to stop the inevitable, and we'll just have to let history repeat itself, and recover naturally. Mooshykris |

Sure our economy Isn't in its prime right now, but that whole depression talk is ********. |

Actually, my worry is not with the big business. My worry is with the effects of this on the lower middle class people like my family. I don't see this all powerful bill stabilizing anything for us.
I used to be quite optimistic about the economy, but I don't see anything changing. I'm just concerned for people like my family who struggle already. Mooshykris |

Yes, I agree.
But yeah, that's why I'm worried. I'm worried for our own sake, not for the big businesses. Mooshykris |

Ok I agree that the Middle Class must be protected....That's why I support the Democrats....But you have to admit, just because were under 18 doesn't mean we don't know what were voting for...

I want to know what the frell they're going to do about these ridiculous gas prices. It's an imminent problem for me. Are they going to let us rot until newer energy technologies come out, or what?

We could start drilling for oil in the humungotastic reserves we have right here on American soil, but Congress obviously thinks that's a bad idea -_- |
The oil companies have gotten too used to 100+ dollar a barrel oil. I heard on the news that some oil-producing nations were going to cut supply because of falling oil prices. =_= Never mind the fact that it's still higher than it was just a few years ago. At any rate, there's very little the government can do to cut oil prices without going all communist and demanding that the oil companies lower their prices, because it's all decided by supply, demand, and the situation in the Middle East. Any kind of oil speculation, whether in the Gulf of Mexico or in the suspected gigantic reserves or Alaska wouldn't have any effects for many years, so there's really nothing they can do to lower gas prices in the immediate future.

Wow...Were in the Last month of the US Campaigns...This is the Home-Stretch folks...
I thought that this was going to be "New", non-partisan, and "Positive" politics. Both candidates have "stretched-the-truth" (Eh...I'll stop it with the euphemisms BOTH OF THEM ARE LYING IN THEIR ADS) Seriously...The Up-to-date American People are tired of this negative mud-slinging. It just pushes a lot of people away from listening to your "Official" campaign platforms. Essentially "Stupid campaign distractions" whatever happened to the Issues? The economy is in a crash. Europe is now in a panic like us a couple of weeks ago...Seriously both candidates should get their acts together. What I'll ask the candidates if I could in the Town Hall Debate: (HealthCare) Sen. McCain: The Obama campaign has accused your $5000 tax-break healthcare plan (Buy-insurance) as being funded by massive tax increases, Please extrapolate on how it would truly be funded and work to benefit Americans. Sen. Obama: The Healthcare plan you are proposing provides base-line coverage to all Americans. Now with the $850 Billion Federal Bail-out Plan has passed, How are you going to fund this massive Government Healthcare insurance plan? (Not the Universal Healthcare I wanted, but it's a start and we could always expand) |
Meanwhile, we have the "W" movie about George W. Bush coming out on October 17. :P
Anyways, any kinda of talk about having a mud-free, higher-level campaign is just that: Talk. All the politicians end up just throwing stuff at each other and hoping something will stick. People might say they hate negative ads, but the fact is: They work. |

In the mean time, I'll just take the bus... although bus tickets are starting to go up too. :( |
I actually like T. Boone Pickens' plan a lot. But neither candidate seems to support it in full.
As the campaign goes on...I've come to the conclusion that I dislike both candidates. XD I liked McCain eight years ago and he should've gained his party's nomination then. But, he's just not the same now and I dislike Palin. With Obama...Hillary would've been a much better choice. And I just don't see him as having the experience. He said so himself before he started running and Biden (although he won't admit it now) and Carter say the same. |
McCain supporters: what have you to say about McCain's judgement regarding the Keating Five scandal?
I think this kinda holds more weight than Obama being a casual aquaintance of Bill Ayers, btw. |

Same thing with McCain. Poor judgement, although ultimately it was found that he was not responsible for anything...and he isn't continually finding himself in the situation. sims796, and well...I wouldn't be voting anyway XD I'm Canadian. I just keep up on your politics because you affect us so much. Canadian election is in a week and I know who I'm voting for. |
Well, I was speaking for the both of us. (Apparently not, lulz)
Obama's inexperience is frightening, but I am tired of seeing Republicans in office. Anything to sti=op the George Bush jokes, I suppose. |
Haha what amazes me here is how it seems there are some people here who debate dirtier then the candidates themselves :P
