OK McCain's Speech HAD WORD FOR WORD THE SAME SPEECH AS BUSH in 2000 agrees with him 90% of the way, plus he's nothing but a republican ass whom only cares about his 2% millionaire buddies he has, and his own oil stash for his jets. And Oh yeah Palin shes experienced she has a whole 22 months as governor of one of the least populated states WHOOP DE doo OH did you know shes a woman thats a good gimmick to HEY TONS of foreign experience too Alaska umm its close to Russia WOWy. ALL republicans are doing is creating one hell of a shitty gimmick to this country, how about we see what candidate can sing better or have them dance with the stars woo then we can know what one can run a country. All they are thinking is well they have a black guy we need ummm a woman yeah a former beauty queen. And all the people whom do not look at real facts vote for the old white guy and the purdy lady WOOO WEE Maybe after they are voted in we can have ourselves a hoe-down.
McCains' biggest hero... REGAIN! I see nothing but more penalties for drug use/ possession.

The war on drugs is just another costly war which the government will never win. Fuck why can't they understand!!
Oh, they understand.
But as long as drugs are illegal, then they are about 10,000x's as profitable as they would be normally. Which means that the government can use drug sales in the united states to fund renegade foreign policy.
It works like this: Communism (or whatever) in Country A is gaining ground. Wealthy industrialists in that country don't like this. The US can't must the legal or popular impetus to support the bloodthirsty capitalists and their private armies. So they agree not to bust their drug shipments to the US. For a cut.
Then everybody's happy! If drugs weren't illegal, we would never have a chance defending democracy abroad. You must be some sort of sick America hater. What's wrong with you?

RON PAUL 2008! Bama doesnt deserve presidency AT ALL... and McCain's just not the best choice....
And a draft wont happen. Ever. No person would be stupid enough to start a draft... So quit whining...
no person would ever be stupid enough to start a unjustified war....that depletes our entire fleet and resources....so quite whining
Just because YOU dont think it was justified doesnt mean it wasnt. Im glad we went to war, but we shouldnt still be there. It should be a dead zone by now. And blame congress for being there, not the president; he can only send us for a MAXIMUM of 90 days...
And i wasnt whining... Simply stating the government's not that stupid to draft... like Bimmer said, we would over turn it.
And the reason, IMO, we havent turned the gov because of drug laws is because the whole country isnt against drug laws. So it wouldnt be full force like stopping a draft would...
And saying "i like someone else, but im only voting for one of these two because they have a chance at winning" is just as stupid as not voting. YOU VOTE FOR WHO YOU WANT FOR PRESIDENT! NOT WHO YOU WANT FOR PRESIDENT OUT OF THE TWO MAIN CANDIDATES! GEEZE! Thats just one of the stupidest thing's i hear.

All the members of the electoral college, since the time of George Washington, have considered themselves honor bound to vote entirely the way the state's majority has voted. The votes are all on public record.
There is much discussion about this. Many claim that it disenfranchises voters; Democrats in Texas have basically no vote at the federal level. If you pay any attention you'll realize that the electoral college does NOT in fact decide the election. All members make their decision after the popular vote for a state has been counted.
Whether other people get to decide the election is still open for debate...

McCain has voted with Bush 95% of the time, and has changed his views to meet Bush's

Rather than directly voting for the President and Vice President, U.S. citizens cast votes for electors. Electors are technically free to vote for anyone eligible to be President.
straight from wiki, so really both of us are right, they are pledged,but who trust's politics?

You're right. Logic & evidence are what dictate that it was unjustified due to all reasons publicly given for starting it have either thoroughly been rebuked (e.g. WMDs, ties to al-Qaeda, threat to neighbors), or are based on false presuppositions (i.e. advancing "democracy & granting "freedom") where other examples in the world reveal these claims to be self-serving lies (e.g. U.S. political/business relations with the Saudi royal family, the human rights record of the U.S.-supported 'Northern Alliance' in Afghanistan).

I never said you said dont vote... where do you get this from? But who cares if electors vote whatever way... its still your right as a citizen to vote. In fact, its your DUTY. So technically its not your choice not to vote. As a citizen you have Civil Duties that one should follow as being a part of an american citizen... voting being one of them. But if you dont want to... whatever.

Obama has stated that he is pro-national decriminalization has he not?
It doesn't seem to be a very important issue to him, but if a bill somehow got through - he wouldn't insta-veto it like McCain would.
