Barack Obama will win the nomination!

[Ralph Nader] was the main reason gore lost in 2000, so im sure he isnt too popular with dems.

The main reason? So you see the electoral fraud as having only a minor role in Bush's "victory"?

lol. thanks jesse jackson.

there are essentially two differences between the gop and dems, and that is that gop is for lower taxes and the for the war, and dems visa versa.

first off, there were a few reasons gore lost that election. The main reason was a horrible campaign strategy where he distanced himself from President clinton and his glorious economic record over his 8 years in office. when it came right down to it, noone cared about anything else since they were all getting rich.

even with this horrid strategic blunder, he was still in good enough shape to pull it out, until he ran into florida and it's corrupt officials, one of which shortly after calling a halt to the recount process got a sweet job in the Bush government. hmmm.

On to the second topic, everyone always says that the GOP is for lower taxes and smaller government, and they are conservative so they must be for fiscally conservative policies. But that is clearly not the case. The last two times that a republican president has been in power, after 8 years the economy has been in the shitter. this is not a coincidence. their policy of reducing taxes on the ultra rich and the corporations, while ballooning government spending on useless and needless things destroys the economy.

their policies of removing regulations on corporations while removing freedoms from individuals is bad for society. they are only in favour of lower taxes on them and their buddies, and only in favour of more rights and freedoms for them and their buddies, not for the average citizen.

I am not saying that the democrats are any better, just saying....
