  1. again,Nobody is going in your refrig and throwing food in the trash.Its simply just prevention.I was always told,If you know better,you do better.
  2. yes, I agree with your points, but alot of times they are exceptions to the rule.A fat person is far more likely to have diabetes,hypertension, and heart problems than an skinny person. Yes,somethings are inherited,but you decrease your chance of getting them if you eat right.If you have a family history of diabetes,it wouldn't be smart to eat doughnuts all the time.You need to be more careful than the next person because you are at higher risk.Doesn't mean you won't get it,but you may get it at a later age therefore adding more yrs to your life. And just because you didn't listen to prevention advice doesn't mean people should stop giving you that advice.Young teens don't listen and have sex anyway.Should we just stop telling them the risks?NO!!! we still should give them prevention advice. Its alot of things I didn't listen to too,but that doesn't mean they shouldn't have given me the advice.

    Well can't explain huckabee,but both liberals and republican have both turn the other way to illegals.Liberals do it for votes,and republicans do it for cheap labor. Now here are Ron Paul liberal stances: 1.Against both wars 2.For seperation of Church and State 3.For legalization of Drugs 4.against American total support of Israel (lines up with some liberals,not all) 5.voted to end trade restrictions with Cuba 6.prayer in public schools should neither be prohibited nor mandated at the federal or state level 7.for gay marriage 8.for the repeal of "Don't ask Don't tell" 9.Opposes "No Child Left Behind" 10.For Stem Cell research 11.Pro-Life,but believes the federal government has no authority to legalize or ban abortion 12.Against Death Penalty Now that lines up very well with Modern Liberals.And it should because Libertarians are Liberals

    I understand the primary system,but my point to you was in response of you saying that the past White presidents,never faced any blacks opponents to become president.I was saying to you that is untrue,because the faced Black opponents in the primaries.And we both know you have to go through the primaries before you go through the main election.
  5. well I see your point.But why do you think Health care is high.Because we have bad prevention on health.We don't tell people to put that 3rd candy bar or 3rd piece of fried chicken down.Then they end up with heart problems,high blood pressure and diabetes.Then because of health problems they can't work,so now they need medicare/medicaid to pay their medical bills.If we would have stop them earlier in the life,it would pay dividends on the back end of their life and save tax payers money. Its funny how people preach alcohol prevention,Abstinence to prevent STD and babies,drug prevention,but we shouldn't preach dieting.You know how many people die from heart problems and diabetes because they simply eat bad.And these habits usally start at an early age.I find nothing wrong with telling kids to eat apples instead of snickers.The Gov. isnt putting a gun to anybody head telling them they better eat the apple,but simply making suggestions to prevent future problems.It would save all the tax payers money on health care if we do more prevention in all unhealthy habits.
  6. never met a person who choose to be obese on purpose.Usually happens because of health reasons or bad dieting.And I never met person,if given the choice,would choose to be Obese,if given an easy way to lose weight..Now I understand its hard to lose weight,but I bet every Obese person would rather not be overweight.If a obese person could take a magic pill that would make them skinny in one day(without any consequence),I guarantee almost every Obese person would take that pill immediately.
  7. thats a contradiction.How can you treat a slave humanly.If they are slaves,then you are holding them against their will.That itself is not humanly.Would you like to be held against your will.NO!!!!. Who volunteers to be a slave.Who volunteer to be held against their will.So I guess the children of israel volunteer to be slaves.I guess black people did too. you entire post is a contradiction.

    thats what i was referring to,the primaries.He hardly get any votes there either.
  9. ok,but if he in the primary,then he is in the national election.So to say white candidates didn't go against blacks to become president isn't true.But they go against them in the primary to win.And Alan keys was not a third party candidate to first two times he ran.He was in the Natioanl Republican primary.And the people chose Bob Dole over him.BOB DOLE.

    by the way,Keyes hardly gets in votes at all,and I find on this board 3 members who voted for him.Thats why the sarcasm.Get it. He hardly gets in national votes,but is one of the leading vote getters on this poll.
  11. telling someone to eat healthy so they won't have health problems is taking over someone life.I think its just great advice.Obesity is not healthy.
  12. how is treating others the way you want to be treated, not clear. This is repeated many times in the bible.Sorry,but you wouldn't volunteer to be a slave,so if you are involved in slavery,then you are not treating a person how you treat yourself.This is plain and simple as it gets.Sorry,truth hurts.And the truth is the word of God
  13. Wrong!!!!!!!!! You do know that you have to win a primary first,before you get the nomination.Well Alan Keyes (96 & 2000),Jesse jackson (84 & 88),Shirley Chisholm (1972),Al Sharpton (2004) All ran against White opponents in republican and democrat primaries.Which are in every state.And they all lost,Although Jesse won some states. You can't tell me Alan Keyes wasn't a better candidate than Bob Dole. But he lost.Did anyone say,whites only voted for Bob Dole because he is white.NO!!!!!! But yet,blacks are reduced in that way.Whites have won in majority black districts alot of times.So you guys got it wrong.Blacks voted for him because he is a democrat,not black.Either way,doesn't make it right.
  14. Not everything the founding fathers did was evil,but owning slaves is evil.Your bible tells you that. (Leviticus 19:33-34): And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him. But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God. (remember they were slaves in Egypt) (Matthew 7:12):In everything, do to others what you would want them to do to you. This is what is written in the Law and in the Prophets. (Luke 6:31):Do to others as you want them to do to you. (Luke 10:25-28):And one day an authority on the law stood up to put Jesus to the test. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to receive eternal life?” What is written in the Law?” Jesus replied. “How do you understand it?” He answered, “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Love him with all your strength and with all your mind.’(Deuteronomy 6:5) And, ‘Love your neighbor as you love yourself.’ ” “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do that, and you will live.”. It appears,that Jesus is telling us that if you don't love your neighbor as you love yourself,you will not receive eternal life. Now I don't know anyone who would volunteer to be a slave.I don't know anyone who would like being a slave.So if you make someone a slave,then you are not treating your brother as you would treat yourself,because you wouldn't make yourself a slave. Also: (Galatians 5:1):It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Very clear hear,that the bible tells us that Slavery is a burden.So God right here is telling us that slavery is bad. So again,If God tells you slavery is bad,and that you can't go to heaven by not treating someone in a godly manner or how you would treat yourself.Then that means you are going to hell.If you don't repent.So unless the founding fathers repented of their slavery ways,they will be going to hell.In my opinion,going to hell means you had evil ways. BY THE WAY,OBAMA MOM WAS FROM KANSAS.AND HE WAS BORN IN HAWAII.(GUESS HIS MOMA KNEW IN 1961 HER SON WOULD BE PRESIDENT SO SHE PUT HIS BIRTH IN A HAWAII NEWSPAPER ON AUG.4) BUT I GUESS BY YOUR STANDARDS YOU HAVE TO BE BORN IN TEXAS TO BE LEGAL.

    no problem,my comment really was directed at you,its for the others who throw labels on you.Ive been called liberal my many posters on here.Just because I disagree with them on some issues.But yet,not one can find one belief that I hold that is liberal.NOT ONE. Im only called a liberal because I don't think Obama is Hitler.But oh well. In their minds,they think calling someone a liberal is BAD.Like I lose sleep over being called a liberal. In my opinion labeling yourself anything other than a Christian and human is bad.And yes that includes calling yourself a Conservative too. oops.sorry I meant NOT directed at you.
  17. true,but alot of the dems who favored those things,became republicans after the civil rights bill was past. Before 1980 the South was controlled by the Dems.Now the south is mostly republican.You do the math.
  18. where did I blame Bush and when did I say Obama was the best president Ever.I just gave the man a D+ grade.And why do you always bring up race on everthing.What does him being half white got to do with anything. By the way,you typed it,so it is your words.
  19. that is such a ignorant statement.Every president in the past has been white.But have whites been accused of voting for them,just because they are white.NO!!!!. Blacks have ran before,and they didn't win.So tell me how many votes Al sharpton got when he ran from blacks.So your statement is false. Such an insult to blacks,to say they only voted for someone because of skin color.Black people are more intelligent than that.How about they voted for him because he was the better candidate.It was a choice between him and MCCain/Palin. Heck even Glen Beck said Obama was the better choice. The truth is that,blacks vote 90% for DEMS ALL THE TIME (REGARDLESS OF COLOR).Go look it up.90% of blacks voted for Kerry,Gore,and Clinton.So what you should have said,is that Blacks voted for him because he is a DEMOCRAT not Black.Now that would be true.
  20. Ok I just read her whole speech.(special thanks to Larry David). Michelle Obama didn't say one thing about the Tea Party.Actually everthing she talk about are problems the black community is facing.And she is telling them that they need to address them.Its actually a good speech.Nothing racist at all.
  21. I do know he aint the worst in history,that would go to the previous administration. I would say he somewhere along the lines of Bush I. Not terrible,not good either.On a ten point grading scale,I would give him a D+ (67) overall.Which is a failing grade (except in some college courses).Sometimes he a C-(70-72) president,and other times he is a D-(62/63),so I will just split the difference. Im curious to know why in some opinion is he the worst president ever?Actual reasons.not just because.What has he done that is worst than any other president? Just wondering.Also curious to know how many of those who say he is the worst,actually voted for him in the first place.

    although I like huckabee,he has just as much of a chance to win as these others.And that chance is very slim.I like Ron Paul,but he is just as much liberal as he is conservative.But not a suprise because he is a libertarian.I think Paul would actually have the best chance of winning because he would bring in more independent,and liberal voters.Remember president of the US is a Nationwide vote.You can't just win with your party votes alone,you have to bring in independents and moderates.Most of the people on the list are hard right conservatives,(except for Newt). by the way LarryDavid,if you disagree with anyone on this board,you will be labeled a liberal.Stick to your beliefs.I don't see how anybody can agree with everything somebody else says.
  23. true.I don't think the tea party has racist agenda as a whole nor do I think most tea party people are racist,but there are some racist signs and elements at these "parties".And as we all know the saying,one bad apple can spoil the bunch.Although I don't think thats fair.But when you see signs comparing Obama to Hitler,thats really going over the top.And then you see signs saying keep gov out of my medicare.It either means some of these people are not informed or they are at these rallies for other reasons. I think the tea party are 95% conservative or republicans,and lets be honest the republican party is at least 90% white.So thats why you don't see many minorities at these rallies.
  24. I do agree with most of what your saying,accept for the part about Michelle Obama having a charmed life from the get go.she didn't grow up rich.But its true that despite all that,she is living the american dream.Great education,great jobs,now first lady.It shows that despite color,you can still achieve.
  25. its so obvious what you mean.But stand your ground.Say what you really trying to say.Don't use code words or percents.
