Ok, there's been alot of talk about the elections, and I personally believe that this wouldn't be the case if Gore had run for president. he would have walked from state to state collecting all the delegates.
After discussing the political minds of my area, we have come to the conclusion that if noone ends up with enough delegates by the convention, after the first vote, Gore will announce his candidacy for president. The delegates will flock to him, and the ticket will be Gore Obama. then after Gore's 2 terms, Obama will have the experience people claim he doesnt' have now. and he'll run in 2016.

Tell me what you think

I think I probably would have voted for Gore at the time... but if I had known all that I know now, probably Obama.

GO CLINTON!

Let's elect the first woman president!
Let's make history!
She has experience & new ideas, the perfect combination bundled up into one wonderful woman!






Note: Come this fall, I will be voting for moderate McCain. ;)

ill admit it...i find it kind of funny that in another thread you lament about important services that you wish the gov. would spend money on to help alleviate certain issues, and yet you seem staunchly ready to support the candidate who is probably the least interested in any of the issues that you mentioned in that post.

She may have exerperiance but do we really want a president whose a condenscending, lying. conceited, stuck up, uptight, worn out woman?

The only thing about her i approve of is her healthcare plan.

Gore totally should have run. He's the only one paying attention to some of the imediate global warming issues. I mean sure he exagertes them but the people in DC need that exageration to encourage them to act up. but yeah go Green!

Gore has some pretty extreme ideas though. Most of the people I know don't believe in global warming.

I'd support a Gore/Obama ticket. But I'm not so aware of what Gore's policies were the first time.

Much as I disagree with the Clintons, Hillary would be better than Obama or Gore (man is he ever a hypocrite on global warming!).

By the way, according to the GOP, Obama has promised to spend $850 billion, and Hillary has promised $880 billion. Have the Democrats kept track of how much McCain has promised to spend?

It was a long time ago (a few months maybe) but i remember seeing something in newsweek magazine that had obama's numbers much lower than that. I think the notable thing was that they were all spending fairly similar amounts (when you consider the size of the amount) but that there were pretty different ways in which that money was spent.

More importantly, is there also someone who keeps track of how much the candidates promise to save? Because as McCain will stay in Iraq for ever, any promise of not spending a lot should be adjusted for the amount of money he is indirectly promising on spending.

Aye, I saw Hillary at 300bn and Obama at 800bn, with McCain lagging at 200bn.
