Opinions
The NSA surveillance program is not constitutional.
Israel should negotiate with Hezbollah.
It is not appropriate for candidates to accept donations from minors.
Hillary Clinton should drop out of the presidential race.
A naturalized citizen should be allowed to run for President.
The U.S. should implement a guest-worker program.
California's electoral votes should not be divided by congressional district. Not unless every other state does it, too.
Ron Paul should win the Republican nomination for President in 2008.
The Department of Homeland Security is not necessary.
The federal government should subsidize Amtrak.
The U.S. should intervene with military force if Iran attacks Israel. But only if use of nukes by either side is imminent.
Relations between the U.S. and Cuba will not improve now that Fidel Castro has left office. Maybe after his brother leaves office.
Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama should not run on the same ticket.
The most appropriate term to describe the U.S. led military action in Iraq is regime change.
The U.S. should not set up permanent military bases in Iraq. Not the way the agreement stands now.
President Clinton should have been impeached. He perjured himself.

MoveOn.org's "General Betray Us" ad was not appropriate.
Congress should not fund a troop surge in Iraq.
The U.S. military should increase troop levels in Afghanistan.
John McCain receives more favorable press coverage than Barack Obama.
Changes to the Social Security system are necessary.
Executive privilege should not apply to White House aides.
The U.S. should allow dual citizenship.
The government should not be able to engage in secret searches authorized by a secret court without public knowledge whenever the government alleges foreign intelligence is the basis for the search.
The U.S. should not use military force to disarm North Korea.
The Second Amendment permits restrictions on an individual's right to purchase firearms.
Preemptive military strikes cannot be justified.
Racial profiling should not be used in security screenings.
Democracy is the most effective political system.
President Bush should be impeached.
The U.S. government should not allow privatization of federal roads and highways.
Roe v. Wade will not be overturned.
Regulations on campaign contributions do not violate the First Amendment.
Vice President Dick Cheney should be impeached.
The invasion of Iraq has not been successful.
