They're all republicans and democrats. They're American parties. I can't vote for either of them.

Just think of the men as king and woman as queen.

"Well I didn't vote for you."
"You don't vote for king!"

I picked Mr. D by the way.

Candidate A isn't Bush, he can't be elected three times, can he?  And the Muslim guy can't be a Muslim Bush, since he wants to solve the immigration issue. 
The idea is to show nothing.  I don't think Americans are racists.  Obama will probably win the election.  And he is black.  So, get your conclusions right.

Don't be cute. It's obvious that A is a parody after Bush. Sure, he wasn't a congressman and doesn't have just one daughter, but everything else is modeled after him. "Bad student," "daughter with drinking habits," and supportive of the Bush Doctrine? Come one, you have to be a little more subtle than that.

Why else would you put Bush and the two main Democratic candidates next to a Muslim man? It's obvious that you're going to try to use the results to show that "Americans won't vote for a Muslim at any cost" or something like that.

Curriculum: Two years on city council
Foreign Policies: Where diplomacy fails, shim supports the use of military force to repel/redirect threats from shis country and to enforce economic well-being; supports allied nations.
Domestic Issues: He supports a small government with low taxes, is concerned about the immigration problem, pro-life, pro-gun rights
Global Warming: an issue that is not fully understood
Personal: Single, one clone, desire to invest in space lasers.

The one with drinking habits is the guy, not the daughter, lol.  It doesn't matter anyway.  And regarding the Muslim guy, do you think Americans would vote for a Muslim?  Some people maybe.  But most people would not.

Whatever, it's a jab at Bush's prior alcoholism, then.

I don't know if Americans would vote for a Muslim president. Most people I know wouldn't, but that's hardly a cross section of society. That said, if a black president seems like a strong possibility, a Muslim candidate can't be far behind.

if candidate E was available s/he'd get my vote just for being a jedi.

Well, seeing as how candidate C expresses quite a few conservative beliefs (<3 Obama),  I'm going to have to say he has my vote...

I'm not so hardcore conservative, but I do have my interests.

My point stands, peace is a reality. ATG is thoroughly incorrect when he implies that peace is a fantasy.

What?  They don't attack anyone ever yet allow terror to set up a base of operations to launch terror worldwide.  Eventually it will bite them in the ass.
