Obama or Romney?

[Simon Cowell of the RR]

We have to use what is available and practical, which is not so-called green energy. Until something comes along that is as effective as fossil fuels, we need to keep using them.

Except green energy IS as practical and available. Hydroelectric dams are already in use, and power, for instance, pretty much my entire city (Las Vegas).

Wind farms are popping up everywhere, even in remote areas.

They ARE Practical, ARE available, they just take time to replace Fossil Fuels.

Sans your token example, can you pull nationwide statistics?

From an Australian perspective, based on the news available, my own research on the internet and many forums discussion...

Obama would get my vote by a huuuuuuge margin.

The Republican candidates this time round have, by varying degree, come off as terribly backward (and crazy, mean spirited etc). Jon Huntsman interested me briefly, but alas, the republican base isn't particularly interested in reasonable modernity and moderate thinking.

After that it leaves Romney as the best of a bad, sad bunch.

Niether, they both suck, we will all be fucked over anyway and by the 2040's China will be dominant.

You know China's entire economy is based on bubbles that will inevitably pop, yes? They'll be powerful, maybe as powerful as the US, but they won't overtake the US.

It still doesn't matter my point is America is doomed anyway it doesn't matter if it's from within or the outside, so just enjoy life while you can.

December 25th to be more precise.

Oh, that. Yeah ... no. And it's a few days before Christmas, isn't it?

No the aztec calender ends december 25th 2012.

No the aztec calender ends december 25th 2012.

According to Wiki, "The 2012 phenomenon comprises a range of eschatological beliefs according to which cataclysmic or transformative events will occur on 21 December 2012.[1][2][3][4] This date is regarded as the end-date of a 5,125-year-long cycle in the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar. Various astronomical alignments and numerological formulae have been proposed as pertaining to this date, though none have been accepted by mainstream scholarship."

All that means is that the far-right coup d'etat that establishes the Republic of Gilead will happen on December 21st.

I mean, like that would be the end of the world... honestly...

EDIT: Four days after the Electoral College votes and five days before the ballots must be delivered to Joe Biden (as President of the Senate) and the National Archivist. Tell me I'm wrong, go ahead. I dare you...

There isn't going to be a coup...

Yeah, that ancient Mayan shit is REALLY scary now, isn't it?

NOTE: Edited my original post. EV's are cast on December 17th (first Monday after the second Wednesday in December, by law) and must be received by the President of the Senate (IOW, the sitting V.P. if there is one at the time) and the National Archivist by December 26th (the fourth Wednesday in December).

[The Divine Imperium]

All I can say is that I'm happy only one of them can get elected.

Having spent quite a bit of time studying alternative energy, in there current form they are not implementable on a widespread scale.

Then why is coal shrinking and renewable growing?

No, I don't know why Wikipedia graphed the years in reverse.

Edit: damn, did I ever fuck up, ignore this post.

It was scarier before Palin made it clear she wasn't running, but just sucking money and attention.

Bump.

[Laneige]

Since Romney has pretty much won the republican nomination with Santorum out, i thought i would see who americans(and non americans) support in the election, Mitt Romney or Barrack Obama, so which is it NSG? Who do you support and or who are you going to vote for in the upcoming election? Me? I support Mitt Romney, he is not the best candidate the republicans have ever sent out, Eisenhower was one of the best republicans, but Romney is a hell of a lot better than Obama will ever be. What about YOU NSG?

I would definitely want to question on your decision. I personally think that Obama had been doing a great job! I mean, look at what he had given us!

Is there any need to bump this? I mean, you've had 47 pages worth of responses.

No, I don't know why Wikipedia graphed the years in reverse.

But renwable is still a tiny portion of the market and Nuclear and Natural Gas are rising faster than renewable.

[Maurepas]

I don't particularly want to support either. But I'll end up voting for Obama, as there aren't any viable third party alternatives, and Romney is incredibly unlikely to give me financial aid of any kind, which is the most important quality in a President.
