Al Qaeda has a better imagination than the leaders of the USA, by the admission of the highest levels of the USA presidency. Al Q could imagine a multiple hijacking, the USA couldn't. Not the airlines, not the pilots, not the aircrew, not the CIA, not the FBI, not the aviation security people, not Norad, not the National Security Advisor, not the President, not the NSA, not anyone. Well, I could, but I wasn't about to tell that crowd of nutters what I was thinking. I like staying alive.
I believe there was a female cop in the Philippines who figured it out several years ahead of time as well.
The USA figures that spending money is what life's about. How much money Barack, Hillary and co have raised seems to be the main issue. As though the one who raises the most money wins.
Though I'm not a big fan of the French, the French electoral system might be an improvement in the old USandA
Understand each candidate gets to spend exactly the same amount of money (not much)
Each candidate gets the same amount of TV time (45 minutes)
and
There is a blackout on rallies, ads, etc. prior to the election. |
