Would you mind voting for my grandson?

My daughter's college roommate lost both of her parents on Flight #93 a month before her wedding. Truly said even though we did not actually know them. My daughter has kept in touch with this roommate. They live close to one another and their kids go to the pool together a lot. When my daughter was watching some of the 9/11 memorials yesterday she became a little teary and her son asked her what was wrong. She tried to explain things to him on his level.& ...

By Stephen C. WebsterMonday, February 22nd, 2010 -- 9:47 pm For someone who once generated a national hysteria by claiming socialized medicine would bring about government-run "death panels" that would kill the elderly and children with mental defects, Sarah Palin seems remarkably calm, what with her grandson now facing the very same allegedly tyrannical construct, that is. Yes, that's right: Sarah Palin, Alaska's former governor and a millionaire thanks to sales of her book, has a g ...

learn he knew exactly who he wanted for president. I'm not surprised. When she was about 7 a study reported that children form their political personas early. I guessed what each were (one conservative, one liberal), and then asked them. Sure enough! Except, our conservative-trending small daughter grew up in a liberal household and eventually married someone who once traveled with the Clinton presidential campaigns as a documentary producer (guess his affiliation) . Although ...

I'm not asking for your opinion on who is an idiot or why they're an idiot (if you want to chime in in that matter, you can visit pretty much any other thread on the board). I am only asking who you are voting for in the presidential election. Just for funsies. ...

and if we choose to not vote, we can't complain about who is in office. ...

Trump is disgusting, and we all know why. He's also had many failures, despite opportunities 99% of us didn't have. In these failures, he's screwed over the little guy time and time again. He doesn't care. He's a jerk. His opinion of women is clear. He's a fool. He also knows nothing about government. Hillary is untrustworthy, and we all know why. I don't think she would be honest with us about ANYTHING, and her husban ...

on the Motion to Concur in the Senate amendment for the First Responders. There are 0 minutes remaining in the vote time. ...

My 18 yo son has registered to vote and I would like to take him today to do just that. However, my quandry is, he is developmentally disabled and his disability is such that he receives SSI because of it. I would like to point out that he did graduate from high school this June and I believe would be able to understand the mechanics of voting (with my help perhaps), but I know that he would have no idea who to vote for. So, I am questioning whether it is responsible of me to let him vote (perha ...

Check out this literacy test given to black voters in Louisiana in the 1960s! ...

Went to vote this morning, and Fiorina, Rubio were on the ballot to vote for. I asked why, they mumbled something about printing ballots long ago. What if some numb nut votes for them, what happens to the vote? They all looked at me as I had sprouted two heads and 4 arms. UMMM, don't know. Okay, what do you know? WOW, and it comes down to Indiana. If it is any forecast of things to come, I don't know who is going to get the votes from Indiana.& ...

Ohio voting just got a little harder, not because early voting has been cut down, and not because of new ID restrictions. That's right. Republicans are doing everything in their power to ensure a win in Ohio. The latest tactic works on a county by county basis. County by county it is decided whether or not to extend hours at the voting sites. Each county has a commission comprised of two dems and two pubs. You would think this would be a good thing to extend hours in this state right? ...

The winner gets to be President. Simple as that. ;p ...

Not cool. See link. ...

I just came across this Fox graphic and thought some of the posters on this board might find it interesting. Oh, my goodness. Interesting. Fox's own takeaway is that the more educated the citizens of a state are, they voted for Obama. ...

It is painfully obvious that President Obama used the tools he had available in order to do something. Unfortunately, the only thing republicans (the ones in control of congress) know is dictatorship - they know nothing about real life and how one has to compromise. I do it all day, every day in my life or I would not have a job let alone a husband or relationships. When you lose at a game or an election, you then have to play fair. They have acted like spoiled little losers and it makes me asha ...

I heard on Mark Simone's NY radio show today that the 4 groups of people who put Obama through to the presidency were (1) African Americans, (2) Hispanic Americans, (3) young people and (4) single women. Those 4 groups of people are also the ones most negatively impacted by this current economy. Isn't that just wonderful? The ones who helped put him in office are the ones reaping the least reward for doing so. What a guy! The most recent unemployment numbers are higher than the natio ...

It's apparently the same problem as last week in Illinois, changing republican votes to democrat votes. Draw your own conclusions. ...

Because I use my head to research and find out what candidates really are, not what the lap-dog media wants me to think. Because DT has more women in executive and managerial positions than any comparable company, which tells me he is not a misogynist. ... Because he pays these women the same or more than their male counterparts, which tells me looks for capacity and skills in people, not color, gender or race. Because he fought the West Palm Beach City to be able to open his newly purc ...

Now you all can flame me, but having lived through the 50s and 60s when Communism was a threat to our country, I cannot fathom anyone voting for Bernie Sanders. Socialism is too similar to Communism and eventually turns to Communism. You mean to tell me you would like your life being paid a specific salary and if you were luckily someone who made more than average salary or was an attorney or doctor or someone educated, how would you like someone coming in to take your money after all the sch ...

Just Google Communism, Socialism, Marxism and Capitalism and decide if you want to vote for Bernie Sanders or any Democrat. The only Democrat I ever liked was Kennedy. I wish that they had not assassinated him. I wonder what our country would be like now. So, get your mind off of me getting hung up on the hearings. All I know is that we have fought Communism in other countries like Vietnam, etc. We don't like Communism or socialism. I would check out on each one the way that they ...

Madison -- A low-level state employee was fired Thursday after he sent an email to his fellow employees telling them about the state Department of Transportation’s policy on giving out free photo identification cards for voting. Chris Larsen, who had worked in the mail room at the state Department of Safety and Professional Services, sent an email Thursday morning to all employees at the agency’s headquarters explaining that the DOT would provide photo IDs to people only if they specific ...

There is one overriding consideration in our family, and that is the urgent need to break the strangle-hold that the "elite", the "insiders", the "establishment" have had on government for too long. In other words: The "old-boy" (or "old-girl") network. Money, and its illicit influence. Back-room deals and corrupt arrangements. Had Sanders not sold out and broken off an independent candidacy, our family frankly would have been split, but unfortunately Sanders proved to be just another P ...

Well I got my absentee ballot in the mail today and I sat and stared at it for awhile and thought about playing eeny-meeny-miny-mo....both of you are bad so I really don't know. What scares me about Romney though is his whole deal on banning abortion (I realize he isn't as extreme as people are making him on the issue) and the planned parenthood cuts. Um sounds like a mathematical equation of No abortions + No birth control for the poor = Increased welfare cases. &nbs ...

Romney: Abortion legislation not 'part of my agenda' By Elise Viebeck - 10/10/12 08:10 AM ET Mitt Romney is in hot water after appearing to flip-flop on abortion in an interview. Speaking with the Des Moines Register on Tuesday, Romney said "there is no legislation with regards to abortion that I'm familiar with that would become part of my agenda." The remark contradicts Romney's past commitment to ensuring U.S. ...

Wow...first it was vote like your lady parts depend on it and now we are losing our virginity when we vote for Obama. Can democratic women think of anything besides their who-ninnies? I find that much more offensive than binders of women. At least those binders helped women get jobs. Losing the V-card by voting for Obama is disturbing to say the least. If voting for Obama was like losing her virginity....her first time must have a big disappointment! ...

Would you mind voting for my grandson?

Ok, I voted, but I have to tell you - sm

I voted!! - yochana
