TA Pilot:
Maybe we'll take TA's advice and pull out of this messed up union.
Take CA with you.
Goz:
Can someone help clarify one of the false generalizations that are associated witht the republican party.
I am constantly hearing that Democrats are for the working man and that Republicans are mostly comprised of the upper income earning croud. If that's true then why have the elections been so close this year let alone previous elections? I mean the last couple of elections have been tight races. Does this mean that more than 50% of the population are out to hold down the working man and that approximately 50% or so are upper income earners?
I know this is a generalization since the hard working man / unemployed are influenced by scare tactics such as issues like the draft (Democrat proposed) but spun to look like a Rep thing and other such nonesenses

Think about it:
- We're not landlocked (Ocean access via both Great Lakes & Mississippi River)
- We produce our own food (in surplus)
- We run our cars on our own "corn gas"
- We're not overcrowded
- We have great natural resources
- We already have a tremendous amout of international exports: http://www.exportminnesota.com/PDFs/qes04q2.pdf
What else does a country need? We're nearly self-sufficient. Nothing else, we can always merge with Canada. ;)

given the growing amount of outsourcing i assume republicans are more worried about the working man in India

56 million Americans agree with you, 53 million do not. We're a diverse people, please don't lump us all together.

The Majority of American Voters think that they have a batter chance of things being better 4 years from now with Bush than with Kerry.
