Select a Candidate 2008
11/7/2007Who are you voting for in 2008?
I was sent a link via email yesterday with a series of questions that show where you line up on the issues with the current mainstream presidential candidates (sadly no third part candidates, only republicans and democrats. It turns out this quiz is actually a trimmed down version of another questionnaire designed by Minnesota Public Radio to help you select a 2008 Presidential candidate. After filling both questionnaires my views most aligned with Dennis Kucinich and Chris Dodd (both were the top two in each questionnaire though they switched places). Who’s views do you most align with?
On this same day (yesterday), Kucinich introduced a bill to impeach Dick Cheney. It remained on the floor for nearly an hour before being sent to the House Judiciary Committee where it will most likely die. The democrats were voted in to congress in 2006 because the people wanted serious changes made to the way this country is being run… what have they done? They pass non-binding resolutions about the Iraq war, they fail to overrides Bush’s veto on the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP)… the only thing that comes to mind is an increase in minimum wage.
I applaud Kucinich for at least standing up for what he believes in instead of standing up for what will get him the most votes or money. This is more than I can say for most politicians. Also, Kucinich has a pretty hot wife, have you seen her?
