Regardless of who you'd want to win the U.S. presidential election of 2008, who do you think the Jihadists/terrorists (or anyone who wants to rid the world of the U.S.) would want to become president, and why???

If I were a terrorist, I would want Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld to share a ticket. They have done wonders in bolstering new recruits for the jihadist movement.

Any president seeking peaceful solutions would be low on my list. It is much harder to dupe young recruits when the "enemy" is helping with food, water, sanitation, etc...

Actually, I'd frefer you'd be honest about what kind of stance you think is appropriate on the war-on-terror, and if who you honestly think that the terrorists think is better for them.

Well, call it naive but I believe that we should push for peace as often as possible. In my opinion, the war on terror cant be won. I believe this based on edicts accorded in my faith. To paraphrase MLK, darkness only brings more darkness. It is light that will make this world less dark.

Guns, bombs, WTC attacks, civilian casualties = darkness
Diplomacy, advocacy, relief efforts = light

In case you missed the memo, Bush and Co have dropped this verbiage because it is a fallacy. You cant call something a war if your enemy is not definable.

I think it can be won, and I believe the events of the last couple weeks prove it. People are really getting sick of thier crap. Look at what's happening in France and Jordan. You have a group of immigrants who refuse to assimilate themselves into native society, boy does that sound familiar. Everytime these douchebags blow up a preschool or a wedding they just end up hurting thier cause and streangthening ours.

And what does the "refusal to assimilate" and the war on terror have in common? I didnt realize that the 19 men who flew planes into the WTC towers were disgruntled Americans who refused to assimilate into the Floridian retirement lifestyle of bocci ball and sunset martinis.

What happens when you take a population from Iran or elsewhere where they are taught from birth to hate and kill Americans, and then you let them move here by the millions? Assimilation means a lot of things, including forcing some sane amount of education and liberalism on them.

That is a great example. Do you even know any Persians (Iranians) whoe live in the states? I do, and they aren't too fired up about their theocracy back home.

As far as enforcing education, I have no idea what point you are trying to prove. Statistically, our education system has been in the dumps. Blame immigrants all you want. Remember, though, what political party shafts our ecucations system in local, state, and federal funding.
