Either Kerry or Bush will win. Regardless of which one you vote for, or which one you wish to win, which of the two do you believe will become President?

According to the local news, Bush is winning, but almost all of the local news is biased, and full of feth.
im too young to vote, but personally i dont like either of the canidates :(
I like how you think yer actually voting for Bush or Kerry when it's the College Electorate that will decide....
Thats what I said from the beginning.Quote:

i explained this earlier remember that your vote dicides the representative to the electorial college and they are pledged to vote for the chosen candidate of that state except for in extreeme circumstances i dont think its as bad as you think it is but yeah it is still outmodedQuote:

BBC News is uneven at best...for every good thing they do...they have one that is so blatently political and opportunistic one just has to laugh. They are no worse or better than Fox News in ANY respect...and while that may piss off a few BBC fans...well look at it through diffrent eyes for once. It's not the bastion of objective and fair journalism...it has it's agenda like any other news organization.Quote:

It's also funny to hear how some markets will not carry it...that's such hypocrisy on their part...Freedom of Speech so long as you say what I want to hear at it's best.
Plus I just can't help lovin a channel so hated by those losing the ratings wars...that's just beautiful. It's like a grade school playground fight. It sobers up the rest who think they are so above us all when NO ONE listens to them.
I'm pissed that Al Jazeera does not have an english subtitle to it...cause the few times out of the week I get it on the International Channel ( I dig watching news from other nations) makes it nearly impossible to follow.
They are working on an English language channel. Watch that space, because I'll bet you it won't be carried in some areas at all ...Quote:

Of course, I'd be very suspicious of a voting system where the votes cannot be checked; I don't count it as being democratic at all.
