I keep hearing about the lesser of two evils, but there is a third option. Ralph Nader is running yet again and I don't think he's evil all all . Why is the independant always dismissed as a serious possibility?

Dual citizenship is not a RIGHT of everyone. Indonesia at the time when he lived there did not grant dual citizenship. If a US citizen ever takes the citizenship of a country that does not allow dual citizenship they loose their American citizenship.
Also releasing an electronic copy of any document is not as impressive as releasing a hard copy. I can make you a document pretty much when ever I want. I am sure a good majority of us could do it.
The big point about that whole thing is this. The media will slant the story any way they wish. Now answer this honestly. Did you see the story about the ACORN worker who went to jail for voter fraud? It was on CNN yesterday morning, then gone from the airways. He spent time in prison for registering 2000 people who did not exist. It is estimated ACORN has registered 5-10 million fake people. There have been stories in the media about this. But they quickly fade away.
Sunday on ABCs morning news show George Will stated the media will report the stories they want based on $$$. He even went farther and stated that because John McCain did have the money to compete he could not get his ideas out. Obama has bought as much time as he can to silence McCain. In the final push you will probably see a 4-1 average of Obama ads to McCain ads. Not because McCain does not care, but because he cannot get ad space.
In the governors race in North Carolina there was a town hall meeting. One candidate did not show up for what ever reason. The other candidate had the meeting. The next day the candidate who missed the meeting held a news conference, but never mentioned missing the meeting. They also began an ad blitz that same day. Some media in NC stated this candidate was the winner of the town hall meeting. Very little of the media reported the candidate missed the meeting.

Candidates can only loan themselves money. They cannot directly use their own.
But that is not the point. Every candidate signed and said they would use the public campaign system. The Obama back out, changed his mind, flip-flopped, reneged, or how ever you want to say it.
I know this is going to go over really well, but too bad. Who cares if Obama is running ads in Spanish. I am one of many who feel, if you cannot speak English, then leave. Why doesnt he run ads in German, Italian, Russian, Arabic, or even Irish?
Is it wrong to request an American citizen speaks English? When I travel to other countries I learn the local language. I might not be good at it, but why should I expect a person in Germany to know English if I am traveling there?

I had a feeling you would say that.
Obama is spending $750 million to buy the election. Where did it all come from?
Who cares about a candidate that decides they can buy an election?
Who cares that a system put in place to help make an election fairer it only used by one candidate?

I'm pretty sure you all know I'm voting for Obama, but no one else in my family is. Not a single one. WHY, because they are all rich and want to cry about their Taxes. Well Boo Hoo!!! It's all about Me me me me. Most of them have more money then they could possibly spend in 2 life times. But to hear them talk you would think that they were dirt poor.
They all think Obama is the Anti-Christ. (I'm not kidding, they do) I've been hearing about the end times from them for the last 10 freakn' years. Before Obama it has "Those dang Clinton's" I still hear that. Everything that has gone wrong under the Bush administration is some how always Bill Clintons fault. OH and that poor Goerge Bush has to fight those dang Democrats that are always up to no good.
OH PLease!!!! Enough of that CRAP!!! And now you know why I live in Michigan. Far, Far, away from them. Perfect examples of a distorted reality that they want to live in. I see the same kinds of people at every GOP rally. It's so Sad!!!
