Anyone else noticed how America is headed for some serious internal troubles?
Apparently 50 percent of the countries population cannot afford medical insurance. How long is this going to be tolerated?
How long is the corruption in the government going to go unchallenged?
Basically what i'm saying is the country seems to be eating itself up from within. I predict a lot of violence and unrest in the future.
Basically what i'm saying is however i try to imagine Americas domestic future all I can see is violence.

Ack. We aren't talking about Romans any more. How frustrating.
ERM? I thought each party holds sway with quite a few different networks?
A network is going to pander to whomever it's viewers are going to vote for.

And Light sidesteps the thorny issue of attempts by certain networks to ensure Gore got it... as I said, promoting your cause is hard without a loud mouth college dropout.

Pre-election the Democrats proposed to tighten up gun licencing laws. The Republicans wanted to extend them.
It doesn't seem like such a big leap to infer that Gore perhaps wouldn't have been so trigger happy when facing terrorism.
Plus I figure Gore must at least have had a higher IQ than Bush.
Of course, he's probably not from such a different mold. But a slightly better one. IMO.

Read Stupid White Men, then comment on it. I realise that last time this was raised with you, you tried to avoid the subject by saying that 1 magazine article that you thought you may have read said Moore was a liar. If you want to just ignore the evidence that shows the election was stolen, that's fine. But saying that it's nonsense when you don't even know the facts behind it...well, that's very you,

Out of those polled...for the record, I don't actually tend to place very much worth on polls. I only find the fact that his approval rating is falling in much the same way as his dad's did (and in the same circumstances) hilariously funny.

~sigh~ See above; I don't rate the polls at all. I just thought it was funny. Especially as you had a mini-argument about Dubya's approval rating not so long ago. It's strange how you suddenly lose faith in something when it goes against you.

Rubbish, there is ample evidence of television networks being manpulated euring the election in the USA of trying to fix the result in Gore's favour. It's just the Republicans don't have a college dropout to promote the idea...
And, even if it were true, which it isn't, then 54% in favour is still high as it would be more than voted for him in the first place.
And then we could have the discussion how any poll can be carried out by the information collectors so as to conform to a desired result. What is the soure of your polling information Light ?

Incidentally, he wasn't voted in; the Republican party stole the election. That's by the by to an extent; Gore would probably have been just as much of an ineffectual figurehead.

I suspect you're thinking of Socrates; he drank hemlock on the orders of the Athenian leadership. This was Pre-Roman Republic.
