I want to draw as broad a sampling as possible between now and Tuesday.

War (on drugs, agriculture and people) is our primary export. War depends upon widespread fear, which only the media can produce. The same Wall Street that owns the military, agriculture and drug industries, also owns the media . . . they call it smart investing.<br /> </p> Re: Introduce Yourself Here http://mimbck.gaia.com miriam tag:gaia.com,2008:Gaia-227246 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 13:54:09 GMT http://groups.gaia.com/presidents/conversations/view/109127#227246 <p> Hi. Ron Paul has good points about getting us out of Iraq and it&#39;s good to see his energy around that. I don&#39;t agree with him, however, about domestic issues. He&#39;s against things that i think are really important like universal health care,&nbsp; education funding, social services, etc. because he believes all that should be handled by private enterprise. We&#39;ve seen what private enterprise has done to our country and how allowing them the rights to support our citizens offers a few huge pocketfulls of gold, and hurts the people who really need the services.&nbsp; I&#39;d be happy with non for profits that are mandated by the government, but in some way controlled by the people... maybe in some kind of collaborative/cooperative model to do those jobs, but not profit making private enterprise. Kucinich is the only one that I have read about that cares passionately and has acted passionately for all the things i care about...labor, civil rights, education, universal health care, standing by and protecting&nbsp;the bill of rights, stopping corporate abuses and takeover of our government and world, etc.&nbsp; He&#39;s a little guy with a lot of conviction, strength, and action that has historically and consistently proven himself. </p> Media influence http://uhhh.gaia.com Ekaterina tag:gaia.com,2008:Gaia-227037 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 00:34:09 GMT http://groups.gaia.com/presidents/conversations/view/227037 <p> Ron Paul was denyed by FOX to participate in the debates in New Hampshire. (As if we need ear muffs, because we cannot handle such a change??)<br /><br /><br />Why does the media have so much power over the elections? And as citizens how do we spread the messages of those ignored to the people?<br /><br />Also, kind of on the same lines. Many candidates jump to the sight of money. Which candidates are disregarding the effect of money and are out to support those in the low income strata? <br /> </p> Re: Introduce Yourself Here http://uhhh.gaia.com Ekaterina tag:gaia.com,2008:Gaia-227036 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 00:28:05 GMT http://groups.gaia.com/presidents/conversations/view/109127#227036 <p> Hi my name is Ekaterina Ivanova, <br /><br />I am surprised this pod is not more active considering the presidential debates have began. <br /><br />If I could vote (I am not a legal US Citizen) I would vote for Ron Paul. His ideas are fresh and a good way to get this country THINKING again. <br /><br /><br />I am here to learn more about the upcoming elections and hopefully get some good debates started of our own. <br /><br /><br /> </p> Re: Sex Race for president? http://AnthonyODonnell.gaia.com Anthony tag:gaia.com,2008:Gaia-226791 Mon, 07 Jan 2008 13:37:01 GMT http://groups.gaia.com/presidents/conversations/view/226105#226791 <p> Discrimination on the basis of race is unconstitutional. Should that therefore be the basis of discriminating between candidates? Why not judge the candidates on their platforms, and of course, as was famously said, not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character? </p> Re: Sex Race for president? http://mimbck.gaia.com miriam tag:gaia.com,2008:Gaia-226125 Sat, 05 Jan 2008 23:33:36 GMT http://groups.gaia.com/presidents/conversations/view/226105#226125 <p> I don&#39;t know how much it has to do with the sex issue. I would love to have a woman president...and I would love to have a black person as president. &nbsp;I would vote for Obama over Hillary merely because his politics are a little more progressive than hers.... but actually the one who i plan to vote for in the primaries is neither black nor a woman.... it&#39;s someone who has the purest history in Congress of voting for everything I believe in without being corrupted by corporate influences, personal greed or party politics.... Kucinich.&nbsp;&nbsp;Kucinich may be lilly white male, but his&nbsp;voting record in Congress is the best in terms of human rights, civil rights, education, labor, environmental issues, environmental racism, anti corporate abuse nationally and internationally, single payer universal healthcare, higher education, women&#39;s rights, etc. He&#39;s proven himself to put his votes&nbsp;to back&nbsp;his words and to me that matters more than getting a woman or a black person in. </p> Sex Race for president? # Jhana tag:gaia.com,2008:Gaia-226105 Sat, 05 Jan 2008 22:00:45 GMT http://groups.gaia.com/presidents/conversations/view/226105 <p> <p>Ok..its early days yet, but sadly it really will come down to this issue. Does&nbsp;America prefer a woman or a black man in the house. Forget the politics its&nbsp;all the same spin.. I am going with Obama. I sense an evolution in consciousness.
