Poll: WELL!?!

thewake · 09-11-2007 01:02 PM

Would you vote for me if I ran for President of whatever country you live in?

That is my dream. I will be President of the USA and you will vote for me. MWAHAHAHA!

So this is what I'd change in the USA:
I would cut government to where it just keeps people from hurting others. The Libertarian ideology basically. I would probably keep safety and environmental regulations though. I'm also ardently free market (I know, it's a surprise). I believe a truly free market has a level playing field, but during this day and time the market and government are too entangled. I would keep a free education system, but make it totally voluntary while reforming it. There would also be no standing army.

If you have any questions on certain issues inquire in this thread... AND VOTE FOR ME! None

Ahab · 09-11-2007 02:44 PM

Yeah, but how are you gonna get there? You've got the right idea, bud, but no ideas or plans on a transition. We're libertarians, but the last thing i want is poor people losing welfare immediately.

PIMP. · 09-11-2007 06:40 PM

The day wesmummy becomes the President of the USA is the day i will join the Muhajin resistance.

goodusername · 09-11-2007 08:46 PM

i think its funny that more people chose "random answer" than yes or no...

**SoulRiser** · 09-11-2007 09:50 PM

Well, you sound a helluva lot better than the people currently running the country, so yeah, I'd vote for you.

Freak · 09-12-2007 03:51 AM

I does not agree with all of Weswammys political ideologies. So.... no Smile

And just so you know... this is how you become president:
When campaigning... (not for like... the democratic/republican elections, but for the really big one)
Be as nuetral as possible. So then you's get everyone's vote. If a question comes up, like for gay marriage you has to be like "Zomg! well... I beleives... in like... equality... and NEXT QUESTION"
So you does not ouright say I BELIEVE IN GAY MARRIAGEZORG!

Yeah.

Bob Dole · 09-12-2007 05:52 AM

Stance on gay marriage?

Rebelnerd · 09-12-2007 06:01 AM

you've got some great ideas that i think would be good for this country, which means you're gonna lose in a landslide. sorry i had to be the one to tell you this.

Alucard483 · 09-12-2007 06:08 AM

would you promote Youth rights to the point where adults and teens are equals?

HeartofShadows · 09-12-2007 06:15 AM

I think you might get assassinated like kenendy.

I believe those 16 years and up should vote.

I think marriage should be a totally private affair not recognized by the government. I don't think personal morals should take that much of a dictation over a country's laws.
If you do want to know my personal stance on gay marriage: I think it's immoral.

As long as I could be President and change at least a few things for the better it doesn't matter if I get killed or not.

Amen.

Seriously, you'd be a huge improvement over these idiots who try to mold the entire country/world according to their views of things.

No. Voting is an inalienable American right. A RIGHT.
That means there is no age restriction.

If I was prez there would be not laws based on age.

I wouldn't vote for you.... well, maybe. Depends on whos running against you.
But I think we can do a hellofalot better. Smile

Darthmat · 09-13-2007 05:43 AM

But ot doesn't matter what we think.. isn't up to teh electoral college...?

youvebeenthunderstruck · 09-13-2007 05:47 AM

Ageism is, when you truly think about it, discrimination against a certain people. It's true that there are these so called studies where it has been "proven" that a certain age is not able to make certain critical decisions etc... but honestly, you can make a study biased against anybody if you wanted to. But anyway. It shouldn't apply to voting, because while you can argue youth doesn't make the appropriate decisions, what are the appropriate decisions? People much older than 18 or 21 make ill advised choices, on everything, and the entire point behind a choice in any election is that it's a choice, regardless of what the "right decision" any group of people thinks what the right decision is. It makes the entire argument of "wrong choices" null and void.

Freak · 09-13-2007 06:13 AM

Why is everyone so fucking obssessed with 18 anyway?
Why?

Ok, you can get sentenced as an adult at 14, you can go to war at 18, you can only drink at 21.

Most of those have no basis. Because if they did, well first of we are mentally mature by 11 and physically mature by 25, and none of that revolves around 18. People say getting a tattoo under 18 is bad because you're body is still maturing, but at 18-25 its still maturing also.

Well, yes. OK.

Why is 18 important? <Thats main point of post.

Weswammy was asking US what we thought, not the electoral college (whatever that is).

I agree. But if I was in the US, I'd still vote for Weswammy anyway, cause it'd be a huge improvement at least.

Freak · 09-13-2007 07:00 AM

But we can still do way better.

Ahab · 09-13-2007 08:43 AM

I think there should be an age restiction on voting simply because parents are able to mislead young children, or could vote twice as their young child, in order to further their agenda. The age start should be round 14. Even though early teenagers still rely on their parents for financial support and otherwise, they're rational enough to make political decisions IMO. Even if they aren't, chances are they won't vote anyways.

Freak-of-nature14 Wrote:But we can still do way better.

If you had to ask me, a return to true liberalism seems to be as good as it gets, with government. How can we do better?

Freak · 09-13-2007 12:05 PM

No, shut up. And parents already indoctrine their kids genius. If you grow up in an extremely conservative household, whether your 4 or 40 you're probably going to vote conservatively.

And it still doesnt matter. Voting is a right, you cant fuck with rights bitch.

And weswammy has views that I don't agree with, and we can go a lot more liberal then him.
I vote Doc. Doc was and will always be awesome.

09-13-2007 12:09 PM

So I should vote for you? In short: no. Why? I'm an anarchist. Meaning if there is a revolution I just may be kicking your ass.

youvebeenthunderstruck · 09-13-2007 12:12 PM

Or ask him to step down first, violence is not the first step...

I'm an exception to the rule. I live in the Bible belt.

And, you don't agree with my views? Good. We aren't supposed to agree or the world wouldn't be the same.

Ahab · 09-13-2007 01:11 PM

Is it me, or does weswammy come off as John Stossel?

But this still doesn't prevent fraud from happening in a voting system for the youngest of children. Do you think a 1 year old can physically vote? Thought so. Fact is, while children arent pets and theyre fairly intelligent (I uphold Frank Zappa and how he brought up his kids), the youngest of children still have some significant needs. Even back in the days of the framers, there were some limitations. I know you dont agree with him. I'm just trying to start a debate regarding the views beyond "Oh, I don't agree."

Bob Dole · 09-13-2007 01:57 PM

So, how's this, if you can't register yourself, you can't vote.

Yeah, bad comments I made there. I'm forgetting my only beliefs here. Uhoh

Fraud wouldnt be a big issue because people will be bound to catch it anyways.
