Instead of spending the trillions of dollers on the war for oil over there, why dont we use it to make our country completely independed for energy.. Alaska has the worlds biggest untapped oil researves right now, North Dakota is trying to pass laws to legally grow hemp (waiting on DEA approval), we have the resorces right now, we just need to take the time to develope them, and worry about Iran and North Korea, those are gonna be alot bigger threat then Iraq where we are just sitting in the crossfire of a civil war, the civil war over there is a stratigy by them to keep us from winning, and its working!
And the presidential cannidates now arent much better... We need someone thats going to lead the country instead of being the "first" in office, the 2 major ones right now would be the first woman, or the first black man.. Just a way to attract more votes, not a way to lead a country...
