Even some extreme evangelicals such as Pat Robertson are beginning to change their opinion about Obama.

I assume your support for Obama stems from his ability to bring people together such as what I mentioned above.

Obama first brought down the formidable Clinton machine and then extended them an olive branch. Now he has turned his attention to the "yet again" formidable evangelical machine, so formidable, that they succeeded in getting someone exhibiting "moronic intellect" elected twice.

I'm reckoning I should, and will, take that as a compliment then. :) still don't know what it means. a triangle has 3 sides. that I know. but they keep changing the length of the sides and adding wierd numbers up to give it some meaning. and I like 11 diminsions. just my preference. purely personal. a big ol huge jig-saw puzzle to amuse the mind with.

and now and then someone puts it perfectly well (and speaks a bit to a question you asked me... why don't I leave the house. perhaps one day I will)

you's allright, Koan.

and you, too, Chinu.

and others, all others

PatB is at his best again. :) gotta say I have an unclely affection for the guy. and he represents someone who can overcome certain rather... ya know... what they call it? "culture war" stuff. he cares about people. all people. I've heard him rip the others for downing Hillary. And Obama. He is a defender. don't always agree with him, but he is a true heart.

this field probably needs further study, but I would bet one's genetic makeup probably has a role in one's ability to think abstractedly.
