The way NY State is being redistricted, you might just get a chance to do that. Unfortunately we will still have Schumer and Gillibrand as senators, but the new congressional lines aren't done yet as NY will lose two based on the 2010 census . Then the state assembly and senate are also up for grabs as we in Saratoga County have lost both current dummies and will for sure have a better assemblyman with the senator an unknown quality to me but well liked where he is currently.

And again Ron Paul - Shine, I'll go 50-50. Unfortunately we need someone who is at least 80/20 or, better 90/10.

what you do is give each one of them 1 term to make changes. if not fire their ass and replace them. first change needs to be an end to retirement for them. let them draw ss like the rest of us.

And that's what I've been saying all along! Too bad I'm in the minority so my vote seems a waste! And I learned this morning that Joe Kennedy 3rd moved from Cambridge, MA ( spell big dollar signs here ) next door to Brookline, MA. (spell tiny dollars here) so that he can run for office in our new districts! Let's see, a gazillionair, announces he'll run for a position that isn't really completed yet but he's already the front runner with a lead no-one wants to challenge!!!

At least I don't have to vote for him or against him YET!

Pink Floyd had it right, all in all, it's just another brick in the wall!

If I'm elected president, I will drive my own car, fly my own plane, my wife can fix me breakfast----

Annex Cental America all the way down to Columbia--We'll get the Panama CAnal back, build a fence between Panama and Columbia--
Consider a joint deal to accept Canada's provinces as states

ID chip/card and drug test everybody, identify who/what/where the drug traffic is to get rid of the drug cartels---

Schools will have new class schedules--spelling, reading, writing(English will be the system, not a course) welding, machining, electronics, carpentry, plumbing, truck driving, cooking (home and resturant/bakery) mechanics(auto/truck repair and industrial),road building, forestry, etc----- there will be less effort spent on suppling people to the NATIONAL football, basketball, baseball leaques(National will mean our Olympic teams)

Start a national project to redo our ports, and construct a new heavy system for connecting cities and ports to get the big trucks on there own system--


My First(and ONLY) lady is saying breakfast is ready----

OK, Jerry's got my vote!! Can't argue with any of the stated projects/processes, but that "annexing" might get a bit interesting

Why should it get interesting---our dollars are the most used money, we use Mexican and Canadian oil, most of our landscapers come from Mexico, Whiskey from Canada---think about how much we would save by just doing away with the borders---no patrols, no trash to pick up on the paths across the lines---

I could also carry my own gun ----

It just might take somebody like Ron Paul to shake things up at the White House--- Unfortunately unless some big changes happened in who was sent to Congress it wouldn't make a heck of a lot of difference!

I'm not sure if your reply was directed at me.?.? If so, I wasn't condoning isolationism! It's just the politicians keep piling it on and on and it's THEM that have become isolated from US! Just IMHO!

Like you, we all just want to take care of ourselves and our families.

It's good to see someone so young understanding what's going on!!

...which is precisely what your post accomplishes, IMO. You are a very talented obfuscator , regardless of the downward or upward dliineation of the dialog, but then so is our fearless leader, isn't he...

No, my post follows right after yours, and you are a master at pulling the wool over people's eyes. Don't sell yourself short.

Sorry Alan, I crossed that line writing on other threads for those willing to be open minded.

#2 A professor at a university told his economics class he was willing to grade two different ways and the class had to pick one. The first way was on a standard 90/80/70 curve with A, B, and C for grades(like a democracy, where those who worked hardest reaped the most financial reward), or the second way would be everybody got the same grade based on the average score, just like in a social system. Most of the students thought that the socialist way would be much better. So the first midterm came and the high achievered studied hard, while the middle achievers worked liked they always did studying enough to get by, and the lazy under achievers didn't study at all. Well the overall average was a B-. So the overachievers were mad because their grades stunk, for all the work they had done, while the average students were pleased because their scores were a little higher than normal, and the lazy students were estatic for this looked to be an easy class they wer going to ace. The next midterm came and the overachievers worked even harder to try and bring up the average to protect thier GPA. The middle average folks slacked off because they knew they would do ok based on the last test, and the under achievers continued as normal. This time, they got a C for a grade. Well now the over achievers were really pissed, so for the final they blew it off, thinking why should we carry the rest of the class. The average students, seeing that studying less was still getting them a C, didn't put much effort into it, and the underachievers continued to do nothing. The final grade for the class was posted with F for eveyone. The professor told them all they would have to repeat the class. He showed them why a socialistic system would not work. When you take the reward away for working, people soon figure out why they shouldn't work too hard. This is a true story, and it simply explains the social movements major flaw...why would anyone work to support others who won't. Nuff said.
