1. I think that
the case could be made that he would be a better presidential candidate that John Edwards, based solely upon house size.

No Carbon Footprint--- Small House---

Yep---the perfect Democratic Candidate.

Then again---he did use the US Post Office which uses trucks for delivery. That might have bumped his Carbon score a bit.

4. My concern is that
some republicans and others will point out that he was transported to prison in gas-guzzlers. Does he have the consistency to meet the delicate needs of the American voters?

6. Damn---if we keep bumping his carbon score up,
he'll become ineligible.

I'm thinking that we may have to turn to the animal world for a proper candidate.

11. The animal world .....
it's an option. Flipper? No, for obvious reasons. Rin-tin-tin? Or would his law enforcement background turn-off democratic marijuana addicts? Perhaps we need to consider a cartoon character -- it worked twice for the republican party.

23. NO, Rinny would split the democratic-pot-addict votes...
Edited on Tue Feb-27-07 12:11 PM by ms liberty
Some of us democratic-pot-addicts also have German Shepherds, so I think that would be a wash!:evilgrin:

edited to add: I've always said my German Shepherd is smarter than this President!

8. How Many Would Run For President If This Were The President's Digs?
I like the idea of the President living in a humble abode. Just 2 electrical outlets, running water, and a few creature comforts.

I bet we could get a deal on three of these, that way we could allow our House and Senate leaders to 'experience' the same thing.

Do you think it might help them identify with the people who work for a living, and reject the millions offered by special interests?

people who have nothing and then all of a sudden have the access to millions provided by special interests might have their judgment clouded...ya think?

15. 2 Electrical outlets? 2? Why not just use one? Don't you want a president who will be a LEADER?

22. Running Water?
I hope that by "running water", you mean a flowing creek nearby.

Interior plumbing wastes water terribly.

Outside wells and outhouses should suffice for anyone.

Certainly the president.

18. Kaczynski Bombed.
Kaczynski bombed.

He killed people.

Why would you think he would make a good spokesman for any cause (other than the "cause" of bombing innocent people)?

19. Edwards is throwing a 500,000 a plate
fundraiser and he needs a few dishwashers. Apply at the back door only.
