I must say that I also agree with Doggystyle on this one. What can I say, I'm from Texas. I have seen the Bushies in action for far too long. Poplife, you have a right to make your points, and I will listen to them, but I am a teacher, so obviously there a many things more important to me than money. Clinton may be phoney (so was Regan, Nixon, Bush Sr., etc.), but I like him and would have voted for him again in a second. I have never voted for Bush, but because I am a Texan, I have lived under his policies (educational, political, financial, ect.), and simply put, he is a moron. The first rule of politics should be "don't show your stupidity in public." Some things should just be left at home. He surrounded himself with good people in Texas, yet he still showed his moronic side quite often (See if you don't take the advice of those you surround yourself with, you still look stupid. It is clear that Bush ad libs during his speeches, and for him, that is a no no). I truly believe that you do not get into politics without being a truly phoney person. None are more real than any others. Bush just looks stupid even when he is being phony, and sadly he governed the educational policy in the "great state" that awarded him a high school diploma (how ironic). Politics is politics is politics, period. I believe that you vote for the person that you prefer, yet realize that no matter what, everyone running is full of chit.
By the way the town of Selma, which has a huge majority of poor, impoverished blacks and high voter turnout voted for a Republican mayor year after year even though he got on national TV during the Civil Rights movement and called MLK Jr. "Martin Luther Coon," and said that blacks were incapable of governing blacks. That's my example of poor black (confused) Republicans. Fortunately, he was voted out of office last year for the first time since the 60's.
Lastly, the Rebublicans got the Black vote for years because it was "the party of Lincoln" although we all know that he was full of chit with the whole "emancipation thing", so both parties have done their share of pimping blacks. Bush's new twist is to give radio addresses in Spanish (ie. pimping Hispanics). To me it's 6 in one hand and a half dozen in the other. I am just not ready (and don't think that I ever will be), to sport an elephant on my chest (pun intended).
