What is the biggest threat to the United States?
I believe the biggest threat to the US is the government. A lot of people like to think that businesses control the government because the businesses supply the government with money. Well, a lot of people supplied the mafia with money back in the 20s, but were they the ones in control? What makes this threat even more serious is the blind partisanship on display so frequently by the citizens of this country. Divide and conquer at its finest, in my opinion. For example, when Bush was president, Democrats said it was patriotic to disagree with him, even in the face of the worst terrorist attack in history. Republicans characterized any criticism of Bush, especially against the war, as unpatriotic. In this case, I have to side with the Democrats. Questioning your president and your government is always patriotic. But now that Obama is president and we are facing what he describes as an unprecedented economic crisis, the Democrats say we all need to come together and do whatever the president wants, without question. Conservatives are being called unpatriotic because they criticize Obama's policies and are accused of wanting America to fail because they don't believe in what Obama is doing. What do you think?

Well I don't think we are in danger from another country. We have the power to take over the world if we wanted to.We are a lot like the Roman Empire. The Romans were awesome....never defeated by another army,strong government, but they were destroyed from within. Corruption, too much government power,multiple other reasons. The same thing is happening to America .

I'd opt for the blind partisanship myself. For the most part those in government come and go. But party politics over the greater good of the nation can only divide. Just my take. Have a nice day.

that's right - govt. The bigger the more dangerous it is. We all know the Dems are tax, spend, big govt & more regulations. Unfortunately, The Republicans have shown to be exactly the same.

Government. Socialism and the blindness of Hussein's followers. Hussein admits it in his books and they still either don't believe it or like it.

I know of nobody that voted for Obama who would call you unpatriotic (or a traitor as many Democrats were called during the Bush years). There are always some people on both ends of the spectrum who do not believe in freedom of speech for ALL. However, there have been several key Repubican figures who have said they hope Obama's policies fail. If they fail, America fails and our economy sinks into a depression. Obama is the president...he will implement his policies. You can either get behind it or continue the lame criticism since election day. Say what you want...I have no problem with that.

Is there a true CONSERVATIVE candidate that has a REAL chance to become President of the United States?
Is there a true CONSERVATIVE candidate that has a REAL chance to become President of the United States?
Someone who will close the borders, deal harshly with illegals, be tough on foreign policy, make America safe again in the inner city... Can this happen? Or is America just doomed to vote pandering Republicans and open border, spend my tax money liberals? Saying "Ron Paul" might make you feel better and he might be great.. I don't know. However, he has no chance. I am looking for a candidate that I can get behind that really could win and make a difference. I don't know enough about Fred Thompson. It looks like he is jumping in.. is he somone to support?

When a president of the united states promises New jobs, and 300 Walmarts and 500 Starbucks open for buisiness
When a president of the united states promises New jobs, and 300 Walmarts and 500 Starbucks open for buisiness
Does that count? If so, isn't that great!!! Don't you just love the new jobs created in our economy when $20-$30 per hour jobs go over seas? Isn't it great how the government then blames the housing market and lenders for giving loans to people who can't afford the loans. Isn't it great how those people now have to work 32 hour days to make the same amount of money they used to make in an 8 hour day? Isn't america great!!!!

Why do Democrats say it is OK for "illegal labor" to cost America money as long as they do not have to pay it?
Why do Democrats say it is OK for "illegal labor" to cost America money as long as they do not have to pay it?
It is stupid to claim "illegal labor" is productive when it costs America as a whole way more in costs than in benefits. A few greedy businesses make money, but the rest of the community is worse for it in all kinds of ways. There all farms all across the United States that do not use "illegal labor" and they produce just fine. Democrats do not see the overall cost of "illegal labor" and the worst harm is done to the "illegal workers": By the time they are 40 there bodies have been destroyed and they have no insurance or retirement. They are then uneducated, not hirable and still illegal. It is not right to use people in this manner, AZ and Republicans are protecting people by stopping "illegal labor"

5 :
the basic issue that CONFOUNDS the libs is... the illegals are TAKING American jobs... here are a few examples: One well-documented case of displacement happened in the tomato industry in the 1980s. A group of unionized legal border crossers picked the tomato crop for many years in San Diego County and were making $4.00 an hour in 1980. In the 1980s, growers switched to a crew of illegal aliens and lowered the wage to $3.35. Almost all the veteran workers who were unwilling to work at the reduced rate disappeared from the tomato fields. Sometimes, recent immigrants themselves are the victims of displacement. In the raisin grape industry of California, Mestizos (the Spanish-speaking population of Mexico) were laid off and replaced with lower cost Mixtecs (the indigenous people of Mexico). According to a study of the industry, the Mixtecs "have driven the Mestizos out of the market." Agriculture has many other instances of employers' switching to immigrant workers (legal and illegal) to increase their profits. For example, Hispanic migrants have displaced native black workers in the Georgia peach industry, and migrants have replaced natives and previous immigrants in the cucumber and apple industries in Michigan. The melon industry slashed its mechanized packing houses in favor of manual packing in the field, eliminating unionized crews of mostly native workers and assigning their work to lower paid Mexican field crews. In the furniture industry, competition from immigrant-laden plants in Southern California closed all the unionized plants in the San Francisco area and removed natives from the workforce in favor of underpaid aliens. In the last 20 years, the meatpacking industry has completely reorganized around the use of immigrant rather than native labor. IBP, the nation's leading meatpacking company, now recruits workers from Mexico and directly along the border. As a result, the proportion of the labor force protected by union contracts and the share of natives in meat processing has dropped dramatically. in short SUPPORTING amnesty for illegals... is BAD GOVERNANCE... and WORSE business logic... edit: God, you libs sure HATE FACTS (more thumbs down!!! prove my point!!!)

Dont laugh please, but i want to become President of the United States?
Earlier, I asked a question of what in a president would make people happy. I soon noted that answer number 5 described me in the bestest way possible. I have been sick of relying on the Middle East for oil, tired of giving all the money to the United Arab Emirates for their oil. I for once if would be elected, would ask congress to pass a law or act that would fund scientific studies on coal. You see, in America, there is tripple the amount of oil found in the Middle East. I dream of having my country depend on our American energy, coal. Why? Because coal can be converted into a substitute for natural gas. It is also very goof for our enviorment, as it does not cause pollution like gas. It is also able to conduct electricity. This would create a cleanier , oil dependant free America. Without all this oil in mind, we wouldn't have to be going into all these wars and depend on Middle eastern countries. So, what do you say, do i have your vote? * very good for the enviorment, sorry typo! Thanks to everyone for the positive encouragment! I do ignore rude comments, as my father says, people in life will always try to put me down, but in the end, it's the other way down. i keep making typos, oo I'm not good at typing lol I agree coal has a limited supply, but did you know we have a 250 year supply? yup

Coal. America has it. No Money... but lots of Coal. Use it?
Coal. America has it. No Money... but lots of Coal. Use it?
Is it OK to Burn Coal? Should we increase our reliance on Coal? The most abundant domestic nergy resource in America? The United States is Broke. We are, face it. Why send more dollars overseas to buy foreign oil? Our environment is precious. But our the state of our technology requires us to be heavy energy consumers. While we promote the development of very expensive alternative energy sources, what will we do to sustain the current cost of energy? Oil below $40.00 a barrel is just a temporary thing. The average price of oil over the last 2 years has jumped from 60 to 90 dollars a barrel. We forget the gas madness of this past summer. At what point do we realize that we cannot afford to ignore one of our richest resources? Coal. We have it. Why not use it? Coal for electric cars. Homes. everything..... Is there a way to make coal an acceptable energy source?

My opinion of our Government is called butt backwards. If it will make them money I think they would consider it. But money is what makes the world go round. I think we need the Countries that we get oil from as allies. So America will always be an oil dependent Country. "Coal gasification is a process converting coal partially or completely to combustible gases. After purification, these gases -carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, methane, and nitrogen which can be used as fuels or as raw materials for chemical or fertilizer manufacture".

> We are, face it. Once you make assertions like "America is broke" everything else out of your mouth is as suspect as if you said the sky is green on a sunny day and the moon is made out of cheese. You can't start your argument, which may be a fair positon to take, with such a fallacy and expect to be taken seriously by anyone with an education beyond 5th grade.
Is it OK to Burn Coal? Should we increase our reliance on Coal? The most abundant domestic nergy resource in America? The United States is Broke. We are, face it. Why send more dollars overseas to buy foreign oil? Our environment is precious. But our the state of our technology requires us to be heavy energy consumers.

They do not dislike the US. They dislike some of our policies that they perceive is not in their favor.
2 :
because the inmigrants think that we are very disrespectful with them.
3 :
The media and the democrats, actually they are no longer democrats but rather socialists, are the only Americans that hate the US and they actually only hate it when the republicans are in control so I think you could say that it is jealousy whether talking about foreigners or US socialists.
4 :
It is funny to realize that the answer to this question is related to the question "Who was the best president of the world in 2005?". Check the answers and you will notice that only U.S. presidents are named (because U.S. citizens seem to think that U.S. IS the world and because late presidents are acting as if they were the world's messiahs). It is a very good place to live when opportunities round-up, but is not heaven. Immigrants go there to find BETTER chances, not because they like there.
5 :
They may say they have other reasons, but I think it boils down to JEALOUSY!
6 :
Jealousy is absolutely correct!
7 :
When you lead, you are watched, judged and critiqued with a greater pressure than others. This is true if you are the US, Microsoft or the local neighborhood watch. More power is followed with greater responsibility and higher expectation.
8 :
we do not dislike usa we love USA because american people have given a present of 400 bilion dollers and 2000 of their sons to iraq which is liberty and democracy. and have made us in IRAN hopeful to be able to move towards liberty faster.
