document.write("How awesome is it that we have united in supporting a black man for president?  Just shows that with the right candidate, race is not an issue.  In SA, it's not the race that's the problem as is so often touted - it's the fact that we have a group of corrupt, morally bankrupt politicians vying for the presidency!. Fiona");

document.write("For me the biggest crisis we as a race (humankind) are facing at the moment is the impact we are having on the environment. Market crisis are temporary, not life threatening and can be fixed. The same can't be said about environmental issues. The single biggest problem we have on our hands is overpopulation and as harsh and heartless as it may sound we DO need HIV / AIDS. This is natures' way of cleansing itself and keeping the balance in our planet. By eradicating AIDS we will sit with even bigger issues 10 or 20 years from now ... no food to feed the world, more pollution, more wars and simply just NO SPACE to live. Our earth can only tolerate so many human beings, thereafter it will be disaster for our planet and all life on it. I'm not saying the fight for AIDS should be stopped, what I'm saying is politicians should have some more insight and do something about birth control TOGETHER with fighting AIDS. It's the only logical thing to do. McCain's abstinence policy does have some merit but his proposed carbon emissions reduction appears to be inferior to Obama's plan. Hence neither would get my vote.... Muerte");

document.write("Not only do the people of south africa not understand politics, they also don't realise that taxpayers are paying for all of Obama's schemes and this will lead to South Africa having to one day repay the American government, similar to how Germany had to repay America after the first world war, having dire effects on the german economy, but hey, if you want hyper inflation, be my guest.<br />Whereas McCain offers more logical solutions, and if people would just do their bit and not have sex with everyone they come across, especially if they know that they are HIV positive and just remain abstinent, maybe they won't become pregnant, infecting the next generation or in the case of men - won't infect another person, maybe South Africa can eradicate AIDS and effectively reduce the amount of over population and orphans altogether.<br /><br />Thus my vote goes to McCain, not an over spending delegate who believes in wasting his people's time and money. - Melissa<br />.

document.write("Gimme the politician that instead of promises of aid, rather gives you the tools to get yourself out the dump. Charity is a double edged sword that more often then not just causes people to look for more charity, it's never enough. All nice preaching about utopia, but there'll never be a Utopia because not everyone puts in the same effort. Obama is actually the perfect example, through his perseverance he got to where he is. Now he wants to give charity to the whole world???. Lepper_Messiah");
