I only listed those that announced they are running for President. They are in no particular order and please be respectful of each others thoughts. Let me know if there is any I need to add to the poll.

Brethren, Donald Trump made a great economic speech at the, "Detroit Economic Club," in Detroit, MI I rarely watch full speeches by any politician, and, personally did not care to hear Trump in a full speech, but, after hearing what he had to say initially, I decided to watch the full speech. I thought it was a great speech that is worthy of our attention. August 31, 2020 Note: The "Detroit Economic Club" link was removed (for whatever reason), so, I decided to replace it with the "President Trump's RNC Convention Speech." I would suggest to watch the full speech. It starts out with an introduction by Pence (which by the way would make a gr…

I've decided Herman Cain is my man. I read his 999 plan and so far I like everything he stands for. The only thing...has he explained how his 999 plan is supposed to work with state income and sales taxes? In and of itself, his plan is awesome, because it pulls together the flat/fair tax people. However if States are still permitted to use their old taxing, it still may be too much, as some states have overwhelming property, sales, income, etc taxes. Also, has he said anything about Social Security? I've missed most of the debates.

Secretary Sebelius, stop hiding behind bureaucratic rules and save a child’s life "Many are calling on Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to allow Sarah Murnaghan, a 10-year-old girl dying of cystic fibrosis, to be allowed on the adult organ transplant list. According to current federal policy, the minimum age for her to be included on the list is 12. Currently, Sarah cannot receive an adult lung transplant until the available organs are offered to adult patients first." What is the right thing to do? Of course it will be hard to decided because prejudices will be in our mind. We probably all have the image of this 10 year old in our mind & …

Have you seen that now the election is over the McCain staffers are beginning to speak out on the selection of Palin and how she was during the campaign? Fox News has been reporting on this. It seems hardly anyone other than McCain wanted to select Palin, and he only wanted to select her in order to stir things up and go for a "hail Mary". According to staffers, she didn't meet the requirements that had been set forth but McCain decided to risk it all just to go for the maverick, shock and change value. McCain staffers say Palin was so uninformed on things that she didn't know Africa was a continent (she thought it was just a group of countries) and she didn't know wh…

WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER GEORGE W. BUSH August 11, 2011 NewsWithViews.com By Chuck Baldwin Last Saturday, Texas Governor Rick Perry unofficially launched his 2012 Presidential candidacy in Houston (in my opinion). Speculation is he will officially announce his intentions this weekend in South Carolina. If he does declare his candidacy, many election-watchers say Perry will become the GOP frontrunner, due to an extremely weak field of declared candidates. If Perry does declare his candidacy, everyone will know that the Houston event was staged for the purpose of launching his Presidential bid, rhetoric to the contrary notwithstanding. If Perry declares his candidacy (…

Supreme Court Justice David Souter's Clerk informed Philip J. Berg, the lawyer who brought the case against Obama, that his petition for an injunction to stay the November 4th election was denied, but the Clerk also required the defendants to respond to the Writ of Certiorari (which requires the concurrence of four Justices) by December 1. At that time, Mr. Obama must present to the Court an authentic birth certificate, after which Mr. Berg will respond. The rest of the article:http://texashillblog.blogspot.com/2008/11/scotus-requires-obama-to-show-birth.html Apparently the SCOTUS would like to know for sure. C

Below is what I have found. You can do the math. Sorry about the looooong post Globally, crude's reserves-to-production ratio has hovered between 40-55 years. The 1P estimate is an estimate of proven reserves, what is likely to be extracted from a well, 90% probability. Probable reserves are given 50% certainty (2P) and possible reserves a 10% certainty (3P). https://tinyurl.com/yd7cfczq https://tinyurl.com/yd7cfczqv Overall, global supply fell by 720,000 barrels per day in August, .2017 https://tinyurl.com/yctnaj3f our forecast horizon we will be in a 104 mb/d market and the call on OPEC crude and stock change rises from 32.2 mb/d in 2016…

I think its interesting that Hillary's mouth says "Vote Obama" but her actions show she is hoping for a miracle in the nomination. They say she is symbolically putting her name into the nomination but that she is telling everyone to vote for Obama. There is something weird about that.
