Would you vote for me for President or even Senate?

Here are some of my stances on issues:

Abortion: Since 93% of abortions are only for birth control reasons, I wish to make it illegal to have an abortion just as a birth control

Gay Marriage: No, unless scientists find hard evidence that homoseuality is natural

War in Iraq: Finish it, but we have to make drastic changes, like going back to the UN and increasing troops more than Bush has, I do agree we should fight the Iranians in Iraq, they are just causing trouble

Economics: Whatever works, liberal or conservative, but I dont like to keep hiking up taxes and minimal wages, taking baby steps seems more sound

I am very anti-corruption, whether in my own party (Republican) or the Democrats, the Foley issue was handled badly

Immigration: Making it a crime for employers to hire illegal immigrants, cut off education, health and financial benefits for illegal aliens, and deport what we can, I also dont think the fenced is a bad idea either.

    Absolutely not

    1) Birth control is legal in this country; the only legitimate stirke against abortion is that its murder. But murder means taking human life; Since there is no scientific/universal/secular line drawn to indicate when life begins, deciding just when a fetus is actually human life is an individual choice.

    2)In a country such as ours, you don't need evidence to keep something legal, only to make it illegal. Homosexuality is at worst a crime against God (and not even all Gods). There is no scientific case for making it illegal.

    3) We need to deal with the Iranians in Iran. not Iraq. Right now, we're fighitin both Iraq's civil war an a shadow war funded by the Iranians. As long as Iran keeps on supporting insurgents in Iraq, we'll never eliminate them all.

    4)Taxes pay for things that we as individuals cannot afford, such as government and public works. I'd definitely go for stricter management of funds, but tax hikes can be necessary at times.

    As for minimum wage increases, a living wage should be part of the cost of doing business. Business owners, small time and corporate, routinely factor in the costs of office supplies, rent, and other expenses that are absolutely necessary; why shouldn't paying their employees enough to support a basic living be one of them?

    5)Corruption is about the one thing I support you on. Just tell us how you plan to do it.

    6) Immigrants are a vital part of economy adn can't be easily replaced. The fence is a waste of money and gives us a false sense of security. Aliens cross the border because their own country doens't have the oppurtunities. Instead of shelling out billions to build a fence, expand the Border Patrol, expand the INS, deport millions of immigrants, and make up for their lost labor, lets invest just a fraction of that money in foreign aid to help Mexico.

    Anyways, judging by the fact that your ideas were quite blatantly extreme, I'm sorry to say you might have trouble surviving in the middle-of-the-road world of politics.

    I believe surely residents could vote it down in a heartbeat. Even men and women who could advertise amnesty for a few, would not opt for blanket amnesty and could nonetheless want legislation enforced, border secured and special issues steady. Too many groups have suffered the in deficient wellness outcome of this to simply supply a quiet....Certain pass ahead....Let em' all are to be had. Again and once more it is secure the border, communicate English and a few honest look at how our approaches are being abused via non-residents. To no longer factor out if anything is not accomplished approximately this "low priced exertions" enterprise.....Men and ladies can't reside to inform the story on minimum salary or even operating folks don't seem to be making sufficient to keep afloat. That are not able to be uncared for ceaselessly. And our tax greenbacks can't keep "making up" for what alternate won't trouble to pay or even knowledgeable folks cannot keep to be bumped from jobs for "inexpensive exertions" replacements who're comfortably coming correct right here briefly to make greenbacks and then return to reside in their countries rich at our citizens rate. There is alot to this snapshot and contributors see it. Alot of lies were advised us and folks see us as a country being purchased out for cash to the bottom bidder. I recollect it's going to ought to pass to a vote. That is that if they is also equipped to get past the artificial identification's and the complete factor to make unique it may be distinctive alive residents vote casting and not illegal extraterrestrial beings stuffing the pollbox's with their fraudulent votes.

    While I agree with you on many issues, you would still need to give me more information to earn my vote. What experience do you have? What leadership roles have you held? What plans do you have in place to get laws passed that are what your constituency wants? Where are you from? What is your background, education, what are your personal values? Where do you stand on education, gun control, sex ed, sentencing for violent repeat offenders, capital punishment?

    You are on the way to earning my vote. How do you feel about the UN? International affairs? National Debt? Term limits? Lobbyists?

    I wouldn't vote for you if you payed me some ungodly amount of money! I would rather vote for a dead person. Homosexuality is so natural! do you think all the gay people in the world would actually choose to be put through what they go through just because of inconsiderate, shallow, narrow minded pricks like you! Never in my life would I have an abortion, but what if you were a girl, let's say 13, and were raped. would you have that kid and give it up knowing that it will probably NEVER see it's parents? I DON'T THINK SO! Increase troops? ARE YOU FRIGGIN KIDDING ME?!?! haven't enough 4 year old little girls lost their dads due to land mines and the like??? Illegal immigrants are probably illegal because tards like you won't let them in to have a better life. It's because of people like you that the woman who cleaned my house's son was pulled over by police and sent back to mexico, never to see his mother again. they had no idea that he was illegal. he was just a mexican driving near the border, and they decided to pull him over. think about your pathetic life before asking a totally unreal question like that. No one that hasn't been brain washed by bush and other republicans would vote for you, bastard!
