: This doesn't seem to be a campaign issue. Must be because so many of the
: primaries are held before fishing season.
They planned the timing of the primaries rather deviously, wouldn't you say!
: Hey, how come a guy from Canada is even thinking about a posting from West
: Cork (Ireland., I assume) about an election in the US?
Are you kidding...all I hear on the CBC talk shows and regular news casts is Obama this, Clinton that. That said, if I could vote for an american president - I would. What happens south of the border affects us.
: Of course 50 years ago where I used to live (Chicago) you guys could have
: voted as Democrats, as long as you were breathing and escorted to the
: polling place by a precinct captain. This would usually get you a free
: beer or whiskey. They needed to find live voters back then to balance out
: the (quite a few) votes being cast by "permanent residents" who
: were no longer breathing, but had physical addresses in the city's
: cemeteries.
Free beer? Aight, I'm in...got my passport in order. Is there a limit to how many beers I get? This able-bodied voter wants to know, eh!
