This cartoon is the funniest to me.  Its like the little boy or the man is saying to Santa Clause, that he has Bush of the naughty list and that Gore is on the nice list.  The ballots were not all the way punched through, and it is clear that the voters voted for Gore.  It just made me laugh when i looked at it.

The students of Richard Byrd Academy did a good job on their project citizen project.  They really presented their issues in a way where you could see that they need a new school.  The set up of their website makes it easy for you to see the reasons why they feel they need a new school.

My perfect candidate would be a woman.  She would be of African American desent.  This woman would be a mix of conservative and liberal views, because I would want her to have the same views as me.  I would want a candidate who had overcome some obstacles in their lives.  Someone possibly from the streets, who had grown up to understand christian values, and the human race as a whole.  She would not put all her trust in her cabinet, or any other influence around her.  My candidate would be single.  I believe in family values, but I also believe in the independent woman, able to stand on her own, and be strong by herself.  I would want my candidate not only to be single but to be a mother.  Mothers have skills that the male species does not have.  She would be seen as a figure to model in later years.  This woman would not be afraid to step into the male dominated industry and take her stand.  Her name would be Tasha Mack. :)
