John McCain's timing to announce Sarah Palin as his VP running mate was definitely successful at quickly turning the media's attention to his campaign after the big Barack Obama acceptance speech at the closing of the DNC. But the question that came up most was "Who is Sarah Palin?". Was she...

Here's another poll that asks the same question. http://www.votenow2008.blogspot.com" gives you the chance to vote for McCain or Obama according to your state of registration and calculates the Electoral Votes based on the responses. By the way ineligible voters such as Americans under the...

If you're interested in participating in an online vote, I would like to invite you to http://www.votenow2008.blogspot.com" which is a fairly ambitious attempt to predict the electoral results based on visitors' votes. I don't think it's an accurate representation of the nation's votes, but...

It's the 10 year anniversary of the OJ Simpson trial. The controversy over this historical trial's outcome has not yet subsided and I wonder if it ever will. Frontline on PBS recently revisited the issue providing historical footage of the broadcasted trial, revisiting the evidence, and...

I don't really see the purpose in this question. The senate gives each state an equal say on federal laws and federal issues, which is necessary since each state has an independent right within the nation to approve or disapprove federal laws. The congress' members are representative of each...

Personally I think if we have the ability to count individual votes accurately, then the electoral college should be dropped. This will increase value of a vote and should drive more people to the voting polls. As it stands more people voted for American Idol last summer than the election in...

The idea, of course, is that banning hand guns would keep it away from criminals. I imagine this is a high expectation, but making guns very difficult to acquire makes me feel safer. I don't agree with your philosophy. The legality of a concealed weapon (very few states allow it) does not...

To be fair, I should have added a fifth poll choice -- Current Gun Laws need to be revised -- as it is the poll does not consider many aspects of the current gun laws that I find disturbing. For instance, the law requires one to registered and be licensed to own a gun, yet there are no...

San Francisco is proposing a law that will ban handguns for its residents excluding, of course, the police, military, security and other jobs that require one to own a handgun. I can find no reason for anyone to have a handgun at home or even carry one around. I know this is a hot topic...

I am a meat eater and mad cow discoveries are a growing concern for me. Over the past decade, cases of mad cow (BSE) has been discovered in England, Thailand, Canada and the USA. With the desease found in different parts of the world, I can't help but wonder how prominent this desease truly...

Put simply, I would like to know what some of you think the future will bring in five years. What do you think the world will be like in the year 2009? What will the population size be? What will the latest gadgets and electronics do? How much will we rely on oil, alternative sources of...

In short, yes. Although I prefer to believe in a life after death, my fears of death are most certainly based on the idea that there isn't one. Therefore, subconsciously or consciously, I have visualized a death with no after-life based on my true fear of no longer existing. Sure...

anthropomorphic basically means: giving human qualities to animals and inanimate objects. Sort of the same as personification in the literary field. Polytheism means: many gods. So I would conclude that anthropomorphic polytheism means: many gods created in our (human) own image...

The suggestion you're making is that choosing to eat meat is ethically/morally wrong. I beg to differ. I think carnivores and omnivores are making an ethically correct choice to eat meat. It is all part of creating a balance in nature. Obviously carnivores and omnivores serve as control...
