RkyMtnHigh 0 #1 June 17, 2007 Amazing the number of peeps who claim that they would leave the country if Hillary Clinton is voted in as President. I am far from being a supporter of Hillary...and I do have another nationality..so if all goes to shit I could leave but I'm not thinking that way. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vortexring 0 #5 June 18, 2007 I remember the remarkable level of concern over here in the UK when it seemed likely he'd be the next US predident. 'The end of the world...!' was a more dramatic view. Unfortunately, it certainly is turning into a bag of the proverbial. 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!" But it's "saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot.' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We need to make it a law that anyone who pledges to leave the country if the next dreadful Republican or Democratic is elected....is held to that contract with America.

NCclimber 0 #7 June 18, 2007 Quote Amazing the number of peeps who claim that they would leave the country if Hillary Clinton is voted in as President. You post is the first I've heard about this. Anyone famous making this claim? Or is it just the people you associate with? IMO, these kinds of "throw down the gauntlet" claims say much more about a person's intolerance and emotional instability than their political convictions.

CanuckInUSA 0 #8 June 18, 2007 Is America ready for a female president? Is America ready for a Black president? Is America ready to try something different in an attempt to evolve itself or it is more interested in maintaining the status quo (which does not appear to be working). Besides John McCain (who’s health could be questionable) we still haven’t seen who the Republicans might field. Of course not being a Yank, I am only a spectator here, but I am all for listening to what Hillary Clinton has to say. But if she plans on leading America down a more socialistic path, I think you guys will be making a huge mistake. If she plans on leading American somewhere down the center, then she’s got to be better than the fool currently leading you guys (oh and historically I’ve always sided with the Republican presidents … until GWB came on the scene). But center to right leaning Americans should think again if they want to leave and come to a place like Canada. That is unless of course you like shitty weather, high taxes, low to medium wages, high housing in all the major urban centers, a broken healthcare system and a socialistic society that thinks of itself as a victim and caters to the special interest groups. No if center to right leaning Americans leave America because of a left leaning government, their options around the world are limited. Is America ready for a female president? I say yes … but only if she leads them down the center (we know she won’t lead them down the right). But I would like to see more people step up to the plate. If America truly is ready for a female president, I think a Clinton versus Rice race would be interesting to watch … meow.

rehmwa 2 #11 June 18, 2007 QuoteIs America ready for a female president? Is America ready for a Black president? Is America ready to try something different ..... That's a real problem when so many think that gender or race is really "something different". Cosmetic (as far as leadership or politics are concerned) differences don't equal different ways of thinking. I think America is ready for a good leader that will do what they say. They don't even need "different" ideas, they just need strength of conviction and an honest streak. I only suspect it matters that they are 35 years old or more, and a citizen, and hasn't already served more the 6 years as president already. I'd rather see Congress fit this bill as far as the $$$ are concerned. ...

tbrown 26 #17 June 19, 2007 As much as I hate Bush, I haven't gone anywhere. Let's not forget that Hillary will have to get elected first, and if she does, then a lot of people (not necessarily most of them, as we have seen) musta voted for her. and she'll still have to sell her ideas to the Congress. For all the fellow Bush haters I know, I only know one couple who actually did leave and move to Canada and they only finally just left last month. I'll wait for the next election. I think we've got a pretty good crop of candidates coming up and I know that even the ones I don't like will do a better job than the fucking chimpanzee we've got now.

Is America ready to try something different in an attempt to evolve itself or it is more interested in maintaining the status quo (which does not appear to be working). Will having a different gender or colour really change anything or will it simply be the same vehicle with a different paint job or different accessories. I would not vote against someone for their colour/gender but I would need to see something in their campaign other than the fact that they are not white male before I will asume they will implement significant positive change. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.
