Sick.

So far I've spent $37 dollars on the Doctor Ferro For World Dictator Party.

It was on sunglasses so I look cool. Trust me, they are awesome sunglasses so I will win.

The End

My vote goes to you, Ferro.

Thanks. That brings the vote up to two! Just a few more!

The Doc

I'll vote for you if you promise to change the national anthem to Margaritaville. :p

Outrageous. And I dont particularly care for any of them.

As Tony Montana would say : " A bunch a whores!"


Don Cardi

Seriously, DC, you and I are hardly ono the same side of the political spectrum, but who do you see from either party as presidential material? I really don't care for any of them. Maybe its time to look for someone who is outside of politics...some University President, someone from the Business World

How about Arnold Schwarzenegger im sure he would do a better job than Bush

Last Action Hero President? Hell no.

Seriously, DC, you and I are hardly ono the same side of the political spectrum, but who do you see from either party as presidential material? I really don't care for any of them. Maybe its time to look for someone who is outside of politics...some University President, someone from the Business World [/b][/quote]No one right now, from either side, shows me any promise at being a Presidential candidate.

As I said ; "A bunch of whores!"




Don Cardi

Amen, DC a bunch of whores all of them.


Well it looks like Joe Lieberman may have time on his hands!

Actually DT, I have a lot of respect for Joe Lieberman. He may be one of the most upfront and real politicians out there. You have to admit that the man does not seem to put his political party affiliation in front of his own convictions.


Don Cardi

I like how DT calls politicians swines at the trough

There is only one candidate that I see as a leader, and that would be Rudy Giuliani. I'm pretty sure that if the elections were held tomorrow, a Giuliani/McCain ticket would be fairly unbeatable.

Obviously

Also, a guitar and piano in every living room. Three bottles of rum at all times in every booze cabinet. Bongos for those who wish for them. (guitar and piano not optional, must have at all times)

The Doc

Make mine have some Jack Daniels and Captain Morgan next to a brand new Gibson SG Standard and I'll vote.

Also, we must outlaw MTV until it has been reformed to it's former greatness.

I would like to see Russ Feingold, Joe Biden, or John Edwards on the ballot. Don't think they'd make it to the White House, but it's a nice dream.

Ralph Nader

Bobby Knight

I even have a good slogan for him:

Bobby Knight- A troubled man for troubled times.

Rudy Giuliani is my personal favourite at the moment. But I wouldn't mind Clinton, McCain or perhaps Warner or Clark.
