Sarah Palin is not qualified to be the President of the United States.

Parental Notification should be required in the abortion decision of a minor.

Al Gore should not run for president again. He can stay true to his principles if keeps out of public office. I like the role he's playing right now.

General election debates should include third party candidates. Obviously there should be some kind of cut-off, the line has to be drawn somewhere. But I think maybe 3 or 4 candidates in the debate won't take away from it too much. Maybe the last debate of the campaign can be limited to just those candidates that are

The U.S. should not use a flat tax system.

Joseph Biden was a good choice for Obama's vice presidential candidate.

The Russia-Georgia conflict will not lead to another Cold War. Hopefully Russia comes to its senses soon. I'm not saying this conflict is their fault but its certainly in their hands to keep this from escalating.

Barack Obama's remark about small-town voters was not elitist. In any part of the comment did he even imply that somehow he was better than them? no, he identified a legitimate problem and guessed at the cause and was so honest about it that people couldn't handle it.

Denying or trivializing the Holocaust should not be criminalized. how do you decide that someone is trivializing it?

Political officials should not boycott the Beijing Olympics' opening ceremony.

Iran does not pose a significant threat to America's national security.

The District of Columbia should have a seat in Congress. I'm not sure what the argument is against this?

The U.S. government should not subsidize corn-based ethanol.

Obama's foreign trip will have a positive effect have on his candidacy. I dont know how much it will help at home, but he is one of the few politicians America should feel confident about sending on a trip like this

Company-mandated random drug testing is an invasion of privacy.

KBR should be held responsible for the electrocution deaths of American soldiers. Yes, but I imagine there is more to it. We shouldnt generalize all of these outside contractors in Iraq as being bad or corrupt. I'm sure the US military has some responsibility for this as well.

Gun owners should not be allowed to carry guns in national parks.

The EU should not accept Turkey as a new member.

Undocumented immigrants who file income tax returns should receive tax rebates.

The Second Amendment permits restrictions on an individual's right to purchase firearms.

Congress should not suspend the gas and diesel tax from Memorial Day through Labor Day 2008.

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama should run on the same ticket. Yes, but not before an extensive PR campaign explaining that they were just kidding about all the bad things they said about each other

A presidential run in 2012 is not part of Hillary Clinton’s strategy. Perhaps its a stretch to say that it is part of her strategy but I wouldn't be surprised if its in the back of her mind. Right now HRC's biggest concern has got to be money. An issue that has not received enough coverage is the extent to which she will be

Relations between the U.S. and Cuba will improve now that Fidel Castro has left office. Whether or not relations improve between the US and Cuba is not unilaterally in the hands of the Cuban leader. Lets not forget that it is the US that has imposed all these sanctions (diplomatic, monetary and otherwise) on Cuba not the other way round. The

President Bush will be a liability for John McCain in the general election. As we have seen from recent interviews of high level democrats, they have made it a primary focus to align McCain's policies with those of Bush every chance they get. While this is a good idea if they don't tone it down people will catch on to the tactic

U.S. citizens should be required to pass an exam to own a gun. Gun ownership is a tremendous responsibility and while an exam is not a cure-all solution it can certainly provide some level of cushioning from just anyone owning a gun.
