Qualities for President '08

[Blueblaze]

What do you guys regard as the most important qualities/opinions/views/beliefs etc... in supporting a future candidate for president?

For me;

1) Evidence of Christianity
2) Against same sex marriages
3) Against Abortion
4) Willing to defend Christian organizations which come under attack by various groups such as ACLU or willing to help those organizations which suffer unfortunate problems.

What are you doing?

Seriously...you're just asking for it.

Indirectly probably, but I'm seriously wondering, what do you guys look for in a president or political leader. Not some secret agenda, it just so happens those are my standards.

Dear Other Countries of the World,

Would you please take our crazies and zealots? We'll pay you. Seriously. Take them away, please.

Sincerely,
The Ol' U.S.A.

In other words, bluebaze is the only one on this forum that voted for Bush.

Qualities I look for in the next US President:

1) Must dress sensibly
2) Must like Spaced and Green Wing
3) Favourite colour must be royal blue
4) Must take a holiday once in a while, there's a lot of stress in that job
5) English

I am Jewish, somewhat religious, but honestly I'd prefer an overtly Christian president. As long as his background doesn't spill over into his decisions (inevitably it will, but again, this is an "ideal"). My theory is you can distract super-religious Christians into thinking everything's just great with a lollipop in the form of "Our president is Christian, everything will be fine" to suck on. Once they're docile, there's a whole lot less drama in politics. Oh, and... if you don't like gay marriages, don't get one.

EDIT: Btw, I voted for Bush. Don't bother flaming me for it in hindsight of the war(s), because Kerry was someone who didn't belong anywhere near a podium at the time of the elections.

1) Must know how to play Air-Hockey
2) Can't be older than 45 when he starts the term
3)Can't take the internet or videogames seriously
4) Smokes a little weed now and then and isn't afraid to admit it

[ZeUs!!]

Without having previously touched an air-hockey table in about a year, I discovered on boxing day that my skills have considerabley improved

[Liquid Blue]

Aqua, you know that I love you, but that statement is ridiculous. The war was already shit before the election of 04'.

If you said the "hindsight" thing about voting for Bush rather than Gore, then I wouldn't have a problem with the statement.

Depends what he's just taken. I don't want a campaign manager who spends most of his time staring at the lights

[genocidal]

He must:
A.) Hate Christians
B.) Hate Jews
C.) Hate Muslims
D.) Hate Asians
E.) Hate Euros
F.) Hate Atheists
G.) Be willing to go to war for no reason other than sustaining American dominance in the world

you could have said all that in one point.

1)President must be a devoute christian, preferably a catholic.

although i find point 3 interesting, if say a woman was raped, and subsequently discoverd she was pregnant, you would not want that person to have the option of an abortion?

[genocidal]

Of course not! Killing babies is against the lawz.
