What I'd like to know is why she chose to list these countries specifically. Did she just recall the names of all the countries she had memorized for her other answers?
I can't read the contents of the top right of the table. Despite watching the stupid ads. There is no place to click to get rid of the ads.
I can put up with watching the naked butts in the "welcome page" for a whole minute everyday. But please let me read the content after I get past that, or else I don't see a reason to visit your website anymore.
I agree that the candidates' kids should never be an issue during the campaign. I did not grow up in the USA and have always wondered why the candidates bring their entire families-- grandmothers, uncles, and preteen children-- to all the rallies and conventions. Why should the public care what their families look like and what illnesses the children have? Sure, we need to know about the candidate's values and positions on social issues, but we should not encourage them to use their families to gain brownie points. We don't need to see the candidate smooch his wife onstage to understand that he loves her. We don't need to see his brood of kids to know he is a "family man." No other public office drags personal life into the spotlight like this. So please, lets just stick to the issues and leave the kids alone. We should be mature enough to make a decision on the next president without needing a picture book to help us.
