This is mainly for Americans, but I think it's important that those of other nationalities take a look at this as well.

Those of you who've been around here for a while pretty much know of my disgust for the mainstream media and how they present the "news" (note the quotes) these days.

Late night TV host Craig Ferguson, who recently became a U.S. citizen, spoke about this particular election season in a very honest way. It's a non-partisan, humorous, yet very truthful and blunt look at what's going on this election season.

For a guy who was not born in the United States and did not grow up in this country, I truly believe that he gets this country better than most Americans I know do. I've never seen his show before but now I'm big fan of Craig and his very intelligent words of wisdom about this election, the media, and voting.

I advise ALL of you to click the link and spend the next 9 minutes getting a good reality check from a late night personality who holds far more merit and presents more intelligence than most of the mainstream media sources the rest of America is watching (not including me - I gave up on the media years ago).

This being a political season and political subject, please watch your comments. This ain't about who's voting for who or why. It ain't about the left or the right. It's about why you should vote and what you need to do to educate yourself about the candidates. So please don't turn this in to a political debate thread. My intentions are to enlighten folks about the big picture, not to start a discussion about the candidates or parties or any of that other crap that always gets would-be friends in to hate-filled shouting matches.

Don't make me have to lock and/or delete a thread I started, k?

That is true. I've said that before on my blog on MySpace. However, we also have Bob Barr but I really don't know that much about him yet other than seeing him on Glen Beck.

I believe that everyone should seriously vote, but not to take all the political crap too seriously cause otherwise it's just going to start fights..

A little word from your friendly neighborhood Irishman... :P


Oh.. and I'm running for president now. I'm running on the Recognizer party. I haven't chosen a running mate as of yet... but if you vote for me, I will make sure that everyone will have free pet grid bugs and I will cut the cost of fragmentation and virus scans and provide easier living for old programs living in retirement zip files.

So vote for me. Qix77 of the Recognizer party. Not the other program from the MCP party who wants to cattle prod you before forcing you to play in the game grid. I'll do the same without the cattle prods. Lol..

Yeah, seriously if we took it seriously, it would cause a reality bubble. And we'd all be auctioned off to the government. Qix77 Wrote: Oh.. and I'm running for president now.

I will also provide more ICPs to bad sectors and increase redundancy in clubs for 10 years. I'll work to format the corruption, and make pure energy one of my top routines. I must compliment you on your speech Qixx, you're a very foreward thinking User.

Jademz.... We really should do a mock campaign here on the sector just for giggles.... I think it would be fun... :P

We should joke around about it... I'll see what type of photo stuff I can come up with and I'll send you some stuff on MySpace...

You can help me host the game. I'm the primary host, so I can't run. If you wanna run, then post in the thread. Be sure to read the rules!

Now that's a good campaign. Fun games, without getting cattle proded from the guards!

Sounds like you're ready to clean up the system and put an end to all the corruption.



There are some interesting posts in this thread. I think I like the TRON-Sector campaign a lot more than the real one.



I wanted to do a series of Weed Killer for President gag videos, but didn't have the time. Was thinking about it seriously back in 2006. Some of you may remember that the great Max Headroom did the same in the 1988 election season.
