Are Hillary and Edwards right? Is socialized medicine the answer to America's rising health care costs and problems? I have to admit that I don't like the idea of the Government being able to tell me I have to go to a doctor or do...

mkirby624 Well, after watching the debate last night, Obama's health care plan sounds better than Hillary's. His is a voluntary one, and quite frankly, if people say "We don't want insurance" well so be it. When they go to the emergency room, tax payers shouldn't have...

To my dear Ron Paul supporters I know that you are out there I have a few questions for you all. First of all let me tell you that I am in need of a candidate. My state will vote Tuesday, and I have no idea how I will vote for. I...

mkirby624 And remember, a vote for the candidate YOU believe in, is never a wasted vote. Voting for the candidate you think will win, even though you don't agree with them...that's wasting your vote. I'd rather vote for someone that will probably not win as a write-in,...

It seems like every election, especially Presidential elections, there are many people who speak of voting for the "lesser of two evils" or even of not voting because they feel that's what their choices would be. How do you feel...

mkirby624 I think some people mistake his personal beliefs for something that he will implement in his presidency. Yes, he is personally against abortion and, as an Ob/Gyn, has never performed one, nor ever seen a situation in which having an abortion was something one...

I can't believe Ted Kennedy has snubbed the Clintons and endorsed Obama! This could cause some fighting within the Democratic party! I would think the Clintons might hold a grudge later on. What do you think is the idea behind...

mkirby624 We had electronic machines for our local voting process, and we got receipts. However, we had to hand those over to the poll workers, but at least there was some paper documentation of our votes.

mkirby624 Except that his step father was a radical Muslim. But that's beside the point. I do agree, though, that Obama is not like Jesse Jackson, etc. That is a black president that I most certainly would not want. If anyone is racist, it's Jesse...

mkirby624 jormins, Obama is not the only candidate who has voted against the war to begin with. Ron Paul joins him in that. I agree with Adoiah, I don't think Obama is anything like JFk, and the Kennedy's endorsement means nothing to me. Ted seems like a bit of a...

mkirby624 What I love about his stance on abortion is that his stance is a personal one...he's not forcing it on other people. He wants to overturn Roe Vs. Wade, not because he's pro-life, but because he believes that those are states rights, and that states should make...

mkirby624 I agree with you mehale. It's not about him being Muslim, it's about him not being able to decide what he is. Being Christian is the popular thing to be as president, so is he playing Christian to get votes?? Plus, the fact that he was raised by a radical...

mkirby624 I don't think the poster meant anything bad by saying "retarded man" I realize that that word is no longer "PC" but only because people began inappropriately using it. The poster wasn't using it inappropriately or in a mean way.

mkirby624 I agree. I'm not a Romney fan at all, but he doesn't get that much press coverage. However, neither does Ron Paul. I find that pretty interesting. He wasn't invited to the Fox Republican Forum, yet Thompson and Guiliani, who trailed behind him in every...
