Maybe this is a strange question....

Does anyone here read the papaer or watch the news? I was wondering if anyone else besides me as following the 2012 elections. Do you consider yourself a Democrat or a Republican? Who do you hope wins?

It's not a strange question. ·W·
I don't. But, what elections are you talking about?

LOL, I just wanted to make. I remember one time Gavin started a topic like mind on Amazon, and no one really understood what he was talking about.

Both. Mainly I meant the President elections, but I've also been watching teh Senate ones which are coming up. It seems the main challenger to Obama will be Mitt Romney. It seems a given, ever since Rick Santorum stopped running.

Oh. You mean the America President elections?
I was confused for a moment, because I didn't know what country you were talking about. :'3

Sorry, I should have made that clear. Are you in America?

Democrat all the way.

It's fine. ^^
Me and Runa are both in Beijing.

Can you guys (Shi & Flame) vote in this election???

Yep, and am planning to. It's looking to be an interesting race! Are you going to vote?

Um...I can't. I am only 14
But by the next one I will be able to!

Lol, me and Runa can't vote, even if we could vote.
It just... Doesn't work like that here. xD
I think it's interesting, how different countries have different ways. Makes the world way more interesting.

I know

I think, though, it would be pretty cool to have a king or queen in charge, like they do in some countries. Those are like the last kingdoms of the world!
If I didn't live in America, then I would either live in England or Australia. I have cousins in both places!

Yeah, it's interesting how different countries have very different governments. England has a king, but the king doesn't have as much power as he had hundreds of years ago. The Prime Minister is the most powerful man in England.

Yesh, talk about politicial stuff is making my head spin.
No, JK.

Yes, as long as the kings and queens aren't like, medival time leaders.
Beheading and stuff.
Ugh, it feel unsafe talking about this for some reason... ^^"

Oh, yeah. The beheading...eh...not so good

I hope I don't offend anyone who supports this guy, but I am really starting to get annoyed by Mitt Romney's style. At first I kind of liked him, but he just keeps changing his mind on important issues too often! He always chages his answer to please the crowd.

Hmmm...I wonder who is going to win.

I personally think it will be Obama.

I also think Obama will win. At least I hope that he will beat Romney if it goes between the two of them. Ron Paul would be a good option as well, but the media really hates him, so it's unlikely he'll win.

Shi, why does the media hate Ron Paul?

Oceanstorm wrote:Shi, why does the media hate Ron Paul?

Because what he plans scares them. He is opposed to the Federal Reserve Act created under the Woodrow Wilson Administration because he believes that its greed has helped to put America in bad economic conditions. The media believes that The Fed is needed in order to maintain economic security, Paul disagrees. Paul os also opposed to the Patriot Act os 2001 because he believes it violates the Constitution.

The media don't actually come out and say that they hate him, instead they pretend he doesm't exist. They write huuuuuuuuuuuuuge articles about Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum, and then they give one brief sentence about Ron Paul. Some people have noticed these tactics, such as Jon Stewart. Jon Stewart proved that CNN was doing a media-blackout.

O.O

Federal Reserve Act? Fed? Patriot Act?
CNN media blackout?

HUH?

LOL
