As stated several times over here already, turks and dupes...it's getting annoying :)

Occupy movement?

Occupy Wall Street :)

Has evolved into ppl "occupying" other things as well to demand change on different things.

There is a greater chance of nuclear holocaust than reform in the political system, it is exactly how they want it :P

There are a lot of people that protest, the best thing to do like any government is to just go along and don't be the one sticking out, there is a saying in Japan The nail that sticks out gets hammered down. This is very true everywhere in many circumstances X.X

The only way to change things would be rise to the top and change them when you get there, but we see what happened to JFK, would you want to be in his shoes :X

At least you would be remembered forever in history I guess...

Not trying to discuss conspiracy theories but it is a fun subject when Government comes up lol

I think that if enough ppl stand up and demand change, then things will happen. It's too bad the whole Occupy movement haven't been more clearly defined and more organised. That's the kind of stuff that is needed imo :)

Well what you are to do about it, is to hopefully change it, make reforms etc. :P There must be some ppl who have an interest in that and who aren't corrupt :)

And about Ron Paul, then yes, I wouldn't be surprised if some media ppl has blocked a candidate out.

Whew, long post :)

I agree though, there needs to be major changes but as you said to run you must use 10 million+ dollars on a campaign and no normal person has that laying around.

The electoral votes are in place because the elections were made up ~100 years ago and the technology change from horse and buggy and pieces of paper to the internet and computers hasn't been incorporated into them yet to actually allow every vote to count, nope it is still state by state and that is a huge flaw but what are we to do about it.

Ron Paul is about the least controversial candidate at least from what I have seen but he doesn't have the backing Romney and the others do and is also kept out of the news probably by the same people running Romney and Obama, not that there are hard facts to prove this is the way things are run but the whole system is 99% corrupt and the few men in power behind closed doors run the corporations and the media and it will stay that way until something large happens.

My opinion

And nice video Sbanks :P

its obama bama!

whoooo let obama out? WHO WHO!

I don't like any of the candidates a whole lot to be honest, If I vote it would probably be Ron Paul, he is lenient on medicinal marijuana and wants to boost military pay while pulling troops back so I'm good with him lol

What are your thoughts on the candidates for the President of the US? (anyone)
Obama for president ^^

I think the whole political system should be reformed, cause it's definitely broken imo.
Midterm elections is a bad idea, cause it means (like now) that the president can kinda lose his power. Obama has a hard time getting things done, because the republicans block him. Why do they block him? To me it seems they want to make him inefficient, doesn't matter if they agree on his policy, they just block it either way. Seems pretty kindergarten-ish to me. Try electing some adults xD

Then I also find it hard to understand the system on some points. I obviously don't know that much about it, but the whole delegate thing... It seems stupid that George Bush won in 2000, although Al Gore had the majority of the votes. (And it was definitely stupid to elect Bush in the first place lol, but to re-elect him in 2004, do ppl ever learn? xD) As I don't know that much about it, I don't know how you'd go about to change it, but imo it should be fixed.

And then an important point. Election campaigns should be much, much shorter and not that much money should be used, it's crazy. It also limits normal ppl from running. How many normal ppl runs for President vs. the rich ppl? If campaigning was cheaper, then maybe the system would be less corrupt also. It is commonly said that Republicans are in the pocket of Big Oil and Democrats in the pocket of Wall Street. Well, if they didn't need all that money, then maybe it would be easier to resist being pushed by these money men.

I'm sure there are many other points that could be adressed, no system is ever perfect.

On the current election:
Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum are both nutjobs in my book, and wouldn't stand a chance in the presidential election I think. Rick Santorum also pulled out, but I think Gingrich is still competing?

Mitt Romney seems very upperclass, I think he would have a hard time relating to the regular American. He's a successful business man and that should indicate that he has leadership experience, which is crucial imo, so that's good. He seems to have turned more to the right in order to win over the rightwing of the republicans, but I believe he'll turn more left, when he goes up against Obama (and I do believe he will be the one that goes agains Obama).

Ron Paul I haven't heard that much about really. I think he seems like a pretty good candidate, but somehow he's not very popular. I don't know why, but maybe someone can enlighten me as to whether he has some controversial statements etc.?

Current President Obama. Well well. I liked it when he won in 2008. Gave much hope after the disaster years of Bush. With all that hope he could almost only fail, and I think he has. What I heard about the healthcare reform I was happy for the USA, but when I heard about the details in it, not very happy. It seems to be made in a stupid way, although the idea was good. Then I think he should hit harder against Wall Street. Make that 1930's regulations, that Reagon removed, come back. Wall Street has proved that they can't control their greed and thus they should be controlled considering they have the sole power to basically create chaos in the whole world. I heard a little bit recently that it might get reintroduced little by little, but I'm not sure. I hope he gets re-elected though, cause I think overall he's doing a better job than I imagine Mitt Romney would.

What I really would like though would have been an independent candidate. I think that's needed atm, and maybe it could result in some peace and cooperation between Democrats and Republicans. Politics are about compromises and as long as they can't compromise on anything, then nothing will be done. Take a look at the increasing debt issue of the USA also. It can break the whole country eventually, and nothing is agreed upon to fix it -.-'

@hahaha

Thank you for your demographic description. It is exactly why I would go check out the state of things myself. The media portrays the South as racist, religious, homophobic, gun-loving rednecks, but like you say it is likely more nuanced than that.

On the election thing I'll write a post after dinner :)

Good for you, better yet good for us.

Too bad you consider skimming reading and didn't actually grasp anything said, which your quoted out of context paragraph that you mis read mis interpreted and tried to flame represented very well.

Have a nice day.
