I also disagree with not using computers at all. EVERY secure system has backup and redundancy built in. I do not believe that all of these problems with voting machines are unintentional. The technology exists to have a secure and valid computer supported national voting system.

I do agree that the electoral college needs to be abolished. One person, one vote. The emphasis on this state or that state is archaic and outdated. It places far too much emphasis on unimportant constituencies. I also think that the lage between election and inauguration is a relic of the past. Inauguration should occur within 10 days of the election. This would allow for any possible recounts or challenges and also provide planning time for the inauguration activities. The transition activities are already going on now (GWB got it right for once!)

Basically, the voting infrastructure needs to be modernized along with the physical infrastructure.

It is the LAW for children to be in school be it public, private, parochial or home school. Besides, didn't hubby say that he would be the primary caregiver while she is stumping and possibly (I pray NOT) being VP?

Having recently lost my grandmother who raised me, I am insulted and saddened by your comments. Obama has stated that he was not able to get back to his mother's bedside in time and he did not want to lose the opportunity with his grandmother. You should be ashamed of yourself. I guess YOU don't have a grandmother...?

I believe that the nation will see that he is we and he is us. Family is first, not country!
