Hey the only way not to set off the standard debate is to not chime in. Which
is why I havn't and won't.

I would agree. No one is going to get anywhere debating the issue because for
most people there is only one side to the issue.
Why not debate something fun that I would like to chime in on like how silly we
in the U.S. currently look to the whole world write now and the fact that no
matter who ends up "winning" the election is going to go into the White House
as a damaged president.
I think *now* is the perfect time for a third party to start seriously drumming
up support for the congressional elections in 2 years because right now the 2
current "major" pollitical partys are looking like idiots and someone should be
able to capitolize on their blundering.
