A favorite rule of schoolteachers (but curiously absent from the tradition of usage commentary) is that a sentence must not begin with because. Sometimes, however, because is perfectly appropriate as the opening word of a sentence, as in the beginning of one of Emily Dickinson's best-known poems: "Because I could not stop for Death?/He kindly stopped for me." In fact, sentences beginning with because are quite common in written English

2000 - Absolutely. Voted, campaigned, donated the max, fundraisers, dinners, etc etc. I cringe when I think what the country would be right now if Gore/Lieberman won. Ugh... now that is a warped ass nightmare. I was born and raised in Massachusetts... one of the largest liberal cess pools this side of the Atlantic. So when Kerry popped up... I knew he would lose anyways so I was not too concerned not being here to vote. To imagine... John Kerry and John Edwards in office right now. Now that would be a warped ass nightmare having those ass clowns in office. Have you been to Massachusetts? This is not to say I am pleased with the wars and how the Bush presidency has turned out... During the 2007/2008 primary season I donated and campaigned for Ron Paul. He was the best option for the country for those that have truly read (and understand) the Constitution. |

I am going to attempt to be somewhat of an ambassador to the English language and remind you of some key primers there in. When you begin a sentence, you rarely start with "And" or "Because". It is considered to be somewhat incorrect. However, do not get me wrong; the word "and" or "because" is used in the beginning of some sentences. While informal it is used. Proper English never begins with the word "And" or "Because". Also remember that when using statements such as your "... About how much a field worker gets paid too." This statement should read: ".. About how a field worker tends to get paid." The addition of "Too" to the end is actually quite pointless and serves no purpose. :pimp |
