Listen my friends, if you want Puerto Rico to vote for the President of the USA, I will join you in that effort. I would love to have PR vote in the Electorial College and have 2 Senate seats and however many Congressional seats they would be entitled to. A great idea because about 90% of them are DEMOCRATS and the ones that live here will vote for Obama anyway. I am not even worried about that. John McCain can change his name to Juan McCain and they still will not vote for him!
And I fully agree with you on the states you mention but they count because people live there

I'm not sure what I find more humorous. The irony of a person presenting themselves as against prejudiced thinking painting an entire state as nothing more than backwoods and useless....or the fact that WV is the reason this person is able to have the electricity to use the computer the above message was typed on.


God bless stupid people.....

Of course if you actually think any one of the viable candidates running in this election are any better or worse that their competitors, you are just gullible. As such, said people shouldn't be calling ANYONE out. They are all incompetent politicians. Just like every president since I've been born. You should all read the WV forum. We are having fun laughing at all of you. Politics is such a waste of time and effort. It's the same **** every four years, just slightly different shapes and sizes...

Woot
Hillary

Get real. There is a reason those states are very late in the process. They don't matter. I believe all selected Bush in '04, so therefore it is incredibly foolish to follow their will. They always choose the WRONG CANDIDATE.

In your very narrow-minded opinion.

That is funny considering probably most of W VA doesn't have electricity itself!

What the hell are you talking about? This isn't 1937. Are you seriously that nescient of the world around you or are you just trying to get a rise out of people?

When has there ever been a "right" candidate? Wouldn't that prerequisite have to exist in order for one to chose the "wrong" candidate? Really, what are these candidates? Bizarre caricatures of human beings whose entire job surrounds around deliberate creation of a publically palatable facade? At least Bush was honest. He's a dimwitted idiot that likes bombing people. Oddly he was able to win the votes of people with said facade...but, whatever. It's not like those doofuses Kerry or Gore would have done any better. It's huge, regrettable failure vs some other huge, regrettable failure. You have one group consisting of a hundred million people that can't think for themselves voting for one guy representing their chosen group versus another hundred million who also can't think for themselves supporting the other guy from their group. Every 4 years. Like a never ending cycle. I'm not even sure what the point is.
