Corrupt in China ==> shot by firing squad

Corrupt in Australia, UK, USA ==> get rewarded with estate home, yacht, private jet, yada yada

The popular presidential vote elects a “Superdelegate” (republican or democrat depending) who is sent to the capital to vote. The candidate DOES NOT need to cast their ballot in line with the popular vote. Secondly, we have a winner take all system where presidents are elcected on a state by state basis. If a 3rd party candidate has an overall majority of the popular vote over the whole country, but no majority in any single state, they will not receive a single superdelegate representative. States have a variable number of superdelegates that cast votes depending on their number of repressentatives in the lower house of congress (which is itself determined by population). If a candidate wins a state, all of the superdelegates are chosen from that candidates party to cast votes.
However, none of what I just said applies to state govenments some states allow the people to elect senators and house reps directly (both federal and state). The only way to generate enough interest for a 3rd party candidate would be to build it at a state level. But even if you could build interest at the level of state governments, you would need to have interest in MULTIPLE states before you could break the 2 party duality. Unforunately, the 2 parties also have a lock on most media outlets (Read about the commission for presidential debate), so we generally never even see the names of other candidates until we literally go into the voting booth.

I love how Americans still think two-party terms (Republicans vs Democrats) when voting. Hate the one? Then you must vote for the other. Look folks, it’s only a matter of time before these two start forming coalition governments, and you will bang your head against the wall for have been so naive to believe the are “enemies”.

You do understand that Obama is a millionare too? And he receives juicy “donations” from all kinds of dubious groups and companies too?

Basically the Northern Europeans had sniffed the fake rivarly years ago, that’s why they were the first to have coalition governments, and citizens are starting to vote for alternative parties like the Green Party or the Pirate Party, which unlike your Den/Rep vote, their vote is going to make a difference.

Oh…I don’t know. I suppose U.S. Citizens might start by not electing spoiled rich preppy greedy idiot morons like Romney who made his millions shuttering U.S. businesses and shipping the jobs formerly held by U.S. Citizens overseas. That just might be a good place to start. Just an idea. (ya think?)

(or for grins and giggles they could just go ahead and elect a Fox to run the Hen House. I’m absolutely sure now that he is a multi millionaire made wealthy from earlier Hen House raids he has completely changed from his old Foxy ways. Just ask him….. )

There are an infinite number of questions that could be asked. She did alright. It was rather strange that she spoke up for Obama at one point but she had heard the speech in the Rose Garden September 12 so she had personal knowledge. At one time or other both candidates challenged her management so it was a difficult task.

The journey of repaying the accumulated deficit begins with the first step of balancing the budget. As long as USA runs a bunch of wars and floats boats and planes all at the same time, it’s hard to see how a deficit could be avoided. If they had left Iraq’s military in charge of cleaning up the mess and left promptly after deposing Sadaam and left Afghanistan after a few months of killing they would have saved a bundle of dollars and many more thousands of lives than 9/11.

In 5-10 years time the human assembly lines will become automated.

She should have asked the following two questions.

“The USA is financially broke with $222 trillion in unfunded liabilities. How would you correct this?”

“Under The Federal Reserve system, the U.S. Dollar has lost 90% of its value since 1913. What is your solution to fix this?”

US software companies are either there because they have been there for years (MS, Apple, Adobe etc), when the US was actually a good place to start a business, or offer cloud/internet services or cloud apps, where the software is typically hidden and noone can scream “patent infringement” at you, because they don’t have a copy of your software to examine it.

Chip companies are gone because Obama AND Romney are both financed by the same Rotchilds and megacorps, and they are both too cowards to implement an “inflato-tax” to counter China’s currency games (aka a tax slapped on goods imported from countries that purposely undervalue their currency), because that would risk alienating the Rothchilds and corps that fund them. They have invested big in China and their investments are worth only if Yuan stays undervalued.

But hey, happy voting. And don’t vote for a third party, it’s what eeeviiill people do (sarcasm)
