I know noone likes bush, but besides that..
Do you think a woman (Hillary Clinton) or a black man (Barrack Obama) could actually win the presidency in the states?

dunno really.
A lot of the electorate is scared of change really aren't they?
I can see clinton being good for the country though, America prospered under Bill Clinton. Don't know much about Obama.
The scary thought is that arguable, the fate of the UK is as much effected by the US presidency as it is by our own political leadership, seeing that we are so intertwined these days. So really, why shouldn't brits be allowed to vote? :p

The sad thing is, I've actually met some people who DO support Bush. I backed away slowly!! Lol. The worrying thing is these people are intelligent, sensible (on other issues), etc, but still support him.

I'd like to think so, but don't think Hillary Clinton's too popular. Think Obama's got more support, but still... dunno.

Clinton has more of a chance. America is still pretty much a race and class divided society. Even then, the GOP might win the actual Presidency because you know how them redknecks are..White/male/Christain...hell it's the reason why the cunts voted Bill in.

I don't think John Edwards can be ruled out of the race for the Democratic nomination yet... The last two successful Democrat nominees for President were from the South (Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter) - and like Clinton and Carter, I think Edwards could appeal to a lot of people in those states that rarely vote Democrat in presidential elections.
But, whoever the Democrats nominate if Giuliani wins the Republican nomination it'll be a close election.

I just ask out of interest... but honestly, why?
She's lied to the public plenty of times. She seems to want to just annihilate the Mid East... so. A good leader eh?

Condolezza Rice... an ultra neocon, ultra Zionist, warmongerer extraordinaire and oil corporation pin up girl as President of the US...
Mmm...
Fuck. Come back for a third term Dubya, all is forgiven.

:lol:
One thing we could be sure with Condolezza is that the US economy would die in a second, making the worlds current most powerful nation... into nothing.
