People need at least one crazy person for every election. All the idiots and "rebels" who want to be "zany" choose that person and are safely and easily removed from the democratic process. Then the adults are allowed to get on with the business of actually running things.

comedic ability has nothing to do with sensibility, which i'm pretty sure he doesn't have, even though he is rather amusing

yes, but it does leave the chance that you will be voted the most sensible person on these forums, which though obviously wrong, is still a scary thought

so would i, it's just that it has some problems which need to be worked out.
maybe something like in starship troopers (the book) ie. democracy for those who have earned the right/responsibility to look after the country who are therefore more likely to vote correctly

Two too many candidates because about 3 people were nominated in the last 5 minutes. Bastards, they ruined my chance of making any head-way. I'm sure if their was an anonymous poll then one or two people would have been bored enough to click, but no one would ever admit to supporting me.

I was gonna nominate him, but a) the nominations closed before I could and b) I was thinking back to the days when he and Fass would attempt to kill each other (anyone else miss those days?)

Anyway, I vote for Cat-tribe. No one else can make such a clear, concise, well researched post that leaves even people who are on his (her?) side totally speechless and awe-struck. 'tis quite amazing to watch.

You would be a good addition to that list. When one lurks around in those threads that are actually about politics, one finds that it is only worth discussing issues with those who have more than a passing knowledge in economics and moral philosophy. You seem to have both, especially the economics, down.

Personally I think JB seems sensible because he always pulls the "That's true, but..." trick. You think he is going to be sensible, but you find out that the "but" brings a little craziness with it.;)
