    I like Bobby Jindal not because of his ethnicity but because of his proposition to eliminate income tax and compensate losses for budget by increasing sales tax. The idea behind it is that you tax what you want to decrease. If you tax incomes you lessen sallaries and profits. If you tax sales you lessen the amount of intermediates between producer and consumer. I think it is not only rational it is actually smart.

    I've watched almoast all Republican Party primary debates in 2012 and Herman Cain was indeed weeker candidate than Mitt Romney. They question him about his tax reform and he says go to my website and look it up there. Good politician should at least make an impression that he knows what he is doing.


    I don't have a slightest clue what his chances are. If you are saying they are low ok then I believe as I don't have any reliable source of information on that. But I don't believe at all that colour of his skin has anything to do with something. Even if he doesn't win anything I'm thankfull to him for championing free market system in time of everybody's love to regulations and more regulations.

    I know very little about Ben Carson so I can't tell. As far as I can judge his main issue is American healthcare which I'm not greatly interested in. But I can say for sure that Obamacare is a bull(*)(*)(*)(*) because no law of thousands of pages can be good.

    Tell me how you came to this conclusion.

    He was amazingly vetted........

    That is a complete fabrication.......how long did the Democratic primary go on?

    Except you have no evidence to prove that........

    Are you suggesting that no one in the press has ever asked about a President's college background?

    Wrong again, you can say it all you want but it ain't true

    People often hate something just because it is radically new. For instance here in Russia many people like crazy critisize United State Exam since the moment it was introduced. But I think that is the best thing that ever happened to our education system.

    Probably not this way but teacher's salary absolutely must depend on his students' perfomance.

    Gorn Captain, it's just a pipe dream of the OP. Bobby Jindal would never make it past the primaries. If he was a Democrat he might have a chance. But as a Republican---no way!

    The problem is that outlaw doesn't allways help to prevent abortions and sometimes even makes thing much worse. But it doesn't mean that abortions should be considered something normal.

    Why did so many Dixiecrats join the Republican Party after LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965?

    Tests can show pregnancy after a week. After another 3 weeks there is a heartbeat. You can look up photos of unborn babies on the web. They don't look like bag of cells.

    Did they? No, I don't know why. Why do you think they did it?

    Mindless, microscopic amalgams of cells are not persons, despite that pretense that some fanatics would wish the State to impose upon everyone.

    At three weeks, you are dealing with something with no brain about the size of a grain of rice.

    If you were to blow up its image many, many times, it would look like this:

    [​IMG]

    At that 3-week stage it is no more a person than an acorn is an oak tree.

    Over time, a person or a tree may develop, but neither happens instantaneously,
    and what might be in the future is not the same as what is in the present.

    1. So apparently there are NO qualified African-American Republicans to be President...since you guys have never...and will not (atleast for 20 more years)....pick one for your Nominee.

    2. Walker could steal your dog...and you'd still vote for him, BD. You'll support whoever the RNC picks to be the Nominee.

    JIndal's chances at being the 2016 GOP Nominee are slightly better than Dr. Ben Carson's.....which means Jindal's are still slightly worse than Charles Manson's.

    I will bet any amount...or any pay-off you want....that neither Jindal nor Carson are the Nominee and probably not even a choice for Veep.

    I said "after another 3 weeks" which means after 4 weeks from the conception heartbeat starts. Even if a woman decides in favour of abortion as fast as in 3 weeks she stops human heartbeat.

    You don't deny that you are referring to a microscopic, brainless entity at that early stage.

    Politicians forcing everyone to pretend it is an actual person is hardly reasonable.

    If anyone wants to believe such a thing, he can. What he cannot be allowed to do is impose his belief upon everyone else.

    Yes, I deny it. Human embryo is more than that. Abortion is a very bad thing at any stage. If it can be avoided it must be avoided. There is nothing shamefull in giving up a baby for adoption if parents can't raise him/her for some reason or even don't want to.

    Yes, I see your point. One musn't pass laws that contain too many words.

    Absolutely! How can you read, understand and remember this monster? It's pure madness.

    No, reading is not hard. Reading is enjoyable. But reading of 2500 pages of the bill and 1000 pages of the law and 20 000 pages of regulations for this law is absolutely insane. Nothing good can come out of this.
