Computational Types in C# and F#Whew! The world is safe...!...? Anyway... According to BBC, Hawaii has 4 votes and called Democrat, but no one voted. Is there something special about Hawaii, or has BBC slipped up?
Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike... me...

If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

I am one of "those foreigners coming over here and stealing our jobs". Yay me!

Computational Types in C# and F#On the other hand... is the democracy worth $3.50 from every US citizen every four years? That is less than one dollar a year, per person. I sure agree that it should be possible to do it for a lot less, but I wouldn't be willing to sacrify very much democracy to save, say, fifty cents a year. Actually, if another dollar a year could give me more democracy, I would be willing to spend it. (That is an "if" - I think the "else" part is quite essential here...)

But it's not a democracy - candidates other than the R. and D. candidates simply cannot compete with the levels of money poured into advertising by the candidates themselves and even more so, by the super-PAC's[^]. And then you have the media, that almost completely ignores third party candidates. And then you have the American people, too uneducated to realize that Romney can't do anything about the price of gasoline at the pumps and his promise to do so is absurd, and too sentimental to ask "ok, so what exactly is your spending / taxing plan?" Democracy relies on education, intelligence, and equality, which is something our political system and the voting body simply do not have any measurable amount of. Marc
