    Who Cares?!?!

    I care more that our next President will be competent, compassionate, capable, honest and insightful and less that he might be a Muslim, smokes or chews his fingernails.

    End the war in Iraq, repair America's infrastructure, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, house the homeless, create jobs, fix the break with America's traditional allies worldwide, engage our enemies in peaceful dialogue, help end our over-dependence on foreign oil, stop global warming, encourage green technology and return America to the fair and honorable place in the world where it was prior to the bastardocracy of George W. Bush.

    THAT'S what I want in a President!
