I think "DRAWN" is inadequate to describe...required for high school completion. I do remember guys working at VA hospitals and candy striper girls for their college applications. There will be no place for that anymore as everyone will have it. Unfortunately the young people that will be drawn into this if he were to win are the 14 to 17 year olds of today.

Survey: shows McCain beating Obama in Israel The Associated PressPublished: October 30, 2008 iht.com JERUSALEM: An Israeli pollster says that if the country were on the U.S. election map, it would be bright red. A survey of Americans in the Holy Land released Thursday found that absentee voters supported Republican John McCain over Barack Obama by a three-to-one margin. The survey interviewed 817 Americans who have cast absentee ballots for next week's presidential election. It was conducted by Vote from Israel, a nonpartisan group that has encouraged Americans to vote. An estimated 40,000 Americans living in Israel are expected to vote. Pollster Mitchell Barak said there is no formal list of American citizens living in Israel, so it's extremely difficult to find a random sample of voters. Nonetheless, he said his survey was a good indicator on how people are voting this year. He said roughly a quarter of American voters in Israel cast their ballots through the Vote from Israel group. Barak said most Americans in Israel are observant Jews who tend to have conservative social views and hawkish attitudes toward the Mideast peace process. Such voters are drawn to McCain, he said. In contrast, most Jews in the United States are not religious and tend to support Democrats.
