Americans Only! If The Election Were Held Today Would You Vote For McCain Or Obama?
 

Americans only vote

McCain.... Voted!

I don't like either candidate but I can't vote for the party that wants to teach our kids the Earth is 6000 years old. I'd rather pay more in taxes than live in a country that is too stupid for words.

You left out 2 other options - write in, or will not/can not vote.

I'm voting for America!

Fair enough, but do you think liberalism as an idealogy has really done much to increase the education of our children? Or do you think its spawn of womyn's rights, MTV, liberal attitudes towards alcohol and drugs has actually helped dumb down generation after generation? That one isn't limited to one party.

Obama all the way. If it was McCain from 2000 running in this election I'm pretty sure I'd vote for him hands down. Unfortunately I don't even think McCain from 2000 would vote for the 2008 incarnation.

i'm conducting research - i want to see how big the difference is between American GFYers' attitudes and non-American GFYers' attitudes is when it comes to the two candidates

I'm socially liberal (as I'd imagine most people who work in this industry are) and do believe it's better for the long term development of the country. I'm not exactly sure how liberalism is to blame for MTV. Nor why giving women rights is somehow dumbing down our country (I feel the opposite in fact). I'm also not sure on what you mean by attitudes toward alcohol and drugs. Deaths by both per capita are higher in red states by nature.

It's always open to debate what is best for the education of our children. It is no secret though that the blue states have a higher IQ per capita as well as larger median incomes. The red states are the ones that are near the bottom of the country in educational statistics and highest in poverty.

My biggest issue is that of teaching religion in schools. Countries like China and India are pumping out scientists and engineers at much higher rates than us. We won't be able to compete for long in a global economy teaching our kids fairy tales in school while others learn real science.

liberal attitude twords alcohol and drugs? You thinking that liberals are the cause of the above proves YES it has dumbed down generation after generation, and you are a perfect example.
