Re: Bachmann crazier than crazy.....
What makes me wonder is if it was really necessary to doctor that video in this way? I mean, the rest of the content should show she's a crazy woman anyway.

Anyways, that doesn't mean he can't be president... or does it?
From what I understand from your voting system, it does. First you win the primaries, which basically makes you that party's nominee to run for president, meaning it's basically the party saying: "this is our guy, if you're a republican, vote for this guy". So, if you don't win the primaries, you'll not be able to run for that party. Sure, you could run as an independent, I guess, but they haven't got a hope in hell of winning your presidential elections.

However, if you don't actually vote, you pretty well wave your right to bitch about it, seeing how you don't take part in it.
Sorry, couldn't let this pass . George Carlin disagrees:
