HI everybody. This is my prediction on how the electoral map will look like in the 08 election. The first picture is what I think the map will look like when Obama goes up against McCain. I'm not factoring in vp on this map. Obama would be leading 313 to 225. The second map I had an Obama-Clinton ticket. Now Clinton here Clinton is able to bring her voters from McCain to Obama or from not voting

Rapid City is taking its presidential theme to extremes. First, there’s Mount Rushmore, of course. Then there’s the City of Presidents, a project to place bronze presidential statues on just about every downtown streetcorner. The newest presidential thing is the Festival of Presidents, which takes place among the bronzes June 27 and 28. It’s more about the [...]

Abraham Lincoln genuinely was born in a log cabin. The fact that he went on to become president, and to lead the country through the most difficult period of its history, is truly remarkable. Most successful people started out with all the advantages. In 1832, Lincoln was defeated in an attempt to become Speaker of the Illinois legislature. In 1843 he was defeated in an attempt to win nomination

Obama, in Montana, responded to McBush's failed "cowboy diplomacy". Why shouldn't we have the courage and the confidence to talk to our enemies? That's what strong countries do, that's what strong presidents do, and that's what I'll do when I'm president of the United States of America."read more | digg story

PolWatchers report that the university presidents didn't say much after their meeting with Governor Beshear...but it sounds to me like they said a lot.This from PolWatchers:University presidents say little after meeting with BeshearThe presidents of Kentucky's public universities and community and technical college system said little Wednesday that revealed the specifics of their one-hour meeting with Gov. Steve Beshear.Beshear himself declined to comment as aides whisked him into an official vehicle outside the Capitol. "I'm 30 minutes late for my next meeting," Beshear said.The presidents had requested the meeting, apparently to discuss their proposed tuition increases and disenchantment with the way the state Council on Postsecondary Education is organized and operates.The presidents la

William Howard Taft Taft was not only the fattest President of the United States; in 1909 he became the first one to ride in an official presidential limousine. In fact there were four official presidential limos: a White Steamer, a Baker Electric, and two Pierce-Arrows. From this selection, it’s obvious that Taft was an early proponent [...]

Jimmy Carter says dictators speak for all the people  ”In a democracy, I realize you don’t need to talk to the top leader to know how the country feels,” he said over the weekend, responding to a question from an Israeli journalist who noted that Mr. Carter had been snubbed by most of Israel’s top leadership [...]

5. George W. Bush Many people are seen differently through the prism of history. President George W. Bush is no different. Indeed, President Bush has faltered from time to time (border security, Medicare Part D); however, his successes have greatly outweighed those blunders. George W. Bush has proved to be one of history’s strongest Presidents on both [...]

5. James Buchanan James Buchanan is often remembered amoung the worst United States Presidents.

History~~Yesterday's Old NewsAs you undoubtedly know, today is President's Day. Lincoln celebrated (well actually he's dead, so I doubt he did much celebrating)his birthday on February 12, and Washington is scheduled to do the same on February 22. Sign up for lessons on all our presidents at the American History blog. If a little history lesson about how President's Day came about is of interest to you, there are answers to be had at the US History Site Blog. I filched their picture today too!Also, Daily Kos links us to Joseph Cummin's book, "Anything for a Vote: Dirty Tricks, Cheap Shots, and October Surprises in U.S. Presidential Campaigns" and some rather funny slams aimed at a number of our past presidents during the campaign. Things today, in comparison are not so bad. Today, in 1967

Little-known green factoids about US presidents throughout history Presidents come in many different shades of green, much like the dollar-bill green, sometimes puke green in times of national emergency. But never mind that. Let's enjoy these choice factoids: George Washington—first president, 1789-1797•    Washington was the only president ever to be elected unanimously. No campaign trail to speak of—imagine the carbon savings! The cancelled FOX and CNN election specials alone probably could have powered every home in the nation! •    Also, showing extreme patience and willpower, Washington had his men row him across the Delaware. Not once did he rev up the outboard engine.•    As a boy, little George (of the famous cher

As a business owner, I've met challenges and rewards that have enriched my life. I have learned about leadership. That it takes courage to step out of our comfort zones. That one must have compassion for others and what they do. And have learned some other wonderful lessons on the way.This month Presidents day is celebrated. They too had their great challenges and reaped reward. They also learned in the process and formed some great thoughts on Leadership.The following articles includes 15 qoutes on leadership from our Presidents.

Photo: Charles PfeilThere have been plentiful posts written by blogger-astrologers about the entry of Pluto into Capricorn which happened this last Friday, January 25th. Reading all the astrological information about this important sign change, I've pondered the many words of wisdom and predictions about Pluto in Capricorn, but it wasn't until last evening as I was listening to Coast To Coast AM and the guest, John Hogue, that I had my 'aha' moment. John was speaking of the possible entrance into the presidential race of New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Listening to John talk about Bloomberg is when it hit me! Bloomberg is so Pluto in Capricorn! Of course!Pluto is symbolized by corporations, big business, and powerful men who already have lots of money and power--all of which fits Michael

Number 528Presidents of the USA"Lump"(1995).Genre:Alt Rockart by LuigiLAmericans don't like foreigners messing (discussing) with anything about their politics. As far as they are concerned only Americans citizens can vote for an American president. Fair enough & reasonable. But since it seems to affect us all worldwide, it is a shame we cant all vote. I'm sure then that Kerry would have won the last election and "Certified Loony Tune" George Bush would have been sent packing back to the hole he came from, PDQ. But imagine this, if the democratic countries of the world could vote, who would be sure to say that Ron Paul would be a shoo in? One would only hope commonsense would prevail, as i hope the Americans do next year as well.What makes a good song? Well its really simple, you have to go no further than listen to whatever song the Beatles made early to mid 60's or even today with songs like "Hey Ya" by OutKast or "Catch my Disease" by Ben Lee.

Office of the President of the RepublicThough the President of Greece is the Head of State of the Greek nation and holds the first place in the Greek Order of precedence, he holds very little power and is largely a figurehead. The Prime Minister of Greece is the active chief executive of the Greek government. The current president is Dr Karolos Papoulias.The President of the Republic is elected for five years by the Parliament (not through direct popular vote). To be eligible for the presidency one must be at least forty years old and a descendant of a Greek father or mother. She or he can only be reelected once. In urgent cases when legislation is needed, the President of the Republic, following a Governmental proposal, issues acts of legislation (Praxeis Nomothetikou Periexomenou), again

By: Kadence BuchananIn an effort to keep the citizens of the United States in shape and healthy, the presidential fitness challenge has been created. As an effort to enthuse both children and adults alike in matters of exercise, in this article, we'll be discussing in-detail the president's plan for fitness success.When it comes to the fitness of children, the presidential fitness challenge has a wide scope. It urges children to perform the following steps: choose an activity, get active, track your activity, and order your award. Children are encouraged to take part in any physical activity that they desire, including such low-intensity workouts as long walks or highly intense sports, such as basketball. The goal that the president's challenge has set is for children to exercise 60 minutes per day for at least 5 days of the week for at least 6 weeks. For those who cannot fully dedicate for a six-week span, however, 8 weeks are allowed in which to complete the required 6. Next, chil

Unfortunately due to the difference in the time zones between Canada and Australia I didn't get to watch a whole lot of the presidents cup live, but I did enjoy what I did get to see.

John McCain’s efforts to pander for right-wing Christian votes reached a new level when he told the nation of his belief that only Christians were qualified to run for the presidency. He claimed the “Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation.” McCain said, “I admire Islam. There is a lot of good principles in it. But, I just have to say in all candor that since this nation was founded primarily on Christian principles, I prefer someone I know who has a solid grounding in my faith.” There is NO mention in the Constitution of the United States of America about God or Christian principles. The men who wrote the document were quite clear they were NOT establishing a nation based on Christian principles. Actually, the Puritans regarded the Old Testament as of equal importance to their religion as the New Testament. I guess McCain believes Senator Joseph Lieberman had no right to run for the vice presidency. McCain has insulted

The Presidents Cup ExplainedThe presidents cup is upon us and the US team will go into the event as favorites. For those that don't follow golf closely or are new to the game the presidents cup is a team golf tournament between the USA and a team made up from every other country (except European countries). The tournament is very similar to the much older Ryder Cup between the USA and Europe. Each team consists of 12 players and the teams play singles and doubles events, which consist of both alternate shot and best ball formats (also called "foursome" and "four ball" matches).There is no prize money for this tournament and any money the this tournament makes goes to charity.How they qualifyMembers of the U.S. Team are selected based on earnings from the 2005 World Golf Championships until the 2007 PGA Championship.International Team players for The Presidents Cup 2007 will be chosen on the basis of the Official World Golf Ranking through the 2007 PGA Championship. The International T

I watched President Bush earlier tonight giving his speech about Iraq and I had meant to take notes on what I thought were the high points. However, in the end there was nothing new, just the same old rah rah team lets fight the bad guys over there so they don’t come over here. And while I certainly do not agree with the whines and whimpers of the Democratic response (have they an opinion other than opposite of George Bush?) I saw nothing particularly new or positive said by the President. When was the last time America declared war? I mean a full tilt formal declaration of war against another country. How about World War II. Yes, we have been at war any number of times since then but these have generally been “police actions” from the Korean War to the present. Moreover, when did we stop winning decisive victories? Interesting coincidence is it not. If I had the chance, I would ask him if the surge is working so well now why didn’t we do that from the start. For three years, peopl

Through their unbreaking spirit to make the U.S. dollar coin popular, the U.S. Mint is once again releasing the one dollar coin with a new face. Well, 43 to be exact.Hoping to follow the huge explosion for numismatists and grandmothers that was the commemorative state quarters, these coins feature the faces of each U.S. president in the order that they served our country, with 4 being released each year. They have already released Washington and Adams, with obviously Jefferson following this Month.Another hope by this project, in addition to resurrecting this defunct currency, is to educate the public. Only 30% of people in a telephone survey set up by the Gallup Organization knew that Jefferson was our third president, and only 7 percent could name the first four presidents in their correct order. Sad.And don't let me tell you what the rests of the percentages were 2% could name the next 4 . But the U.S. mint is hoping to up this number, with having educational resources on their w

By Steve DiMeglio, USA TODAY Jack Nicklaus added two talented but inexperienced players to the U.S. Presidents Cup team with his wild-card selections. International captain Gary Player added a national hero and a player who has Tiger Woods by the tail in match-play competition.

TULSA — This time, the kids will have to carry the weight. U.S. captain Jack Nicklaus added a pair of newcomers to his 12-man team Monday as the rosters were finalized for the increasingly popular Presidents Cup matches, tossing a pair of rising 20-somethings into the mix against Gary Player’s more seasoned International squad. Nicklaus picked cup first-timers Lucas Glover and Hunter Mahan, who finished 11th and 14th on the American points list, to play alongside veteran heavyweights like more…

Presidents of the United States of America were one of the most unlikely success stories of the post-grunge alternative rock scene in Seattle. Where the rest of their Seattle brethren traded in heavy guitars and heavy angst, the Presidents rejected torment for humor, writing short, simple, and absurd punk songs that relied more on goofy attitude than sludgy riffs and tormented screams. It was a formula that worked, as the group's self-titled debut album became a double-platinum record much to the surprise of many critics, music industry insiders, and the band itself.Childhood friends Chris Ballew (lead vocals, two string basitar) and Dave Dederer (three-string guitbass, backing vocals) played in a number of groups and projects before forming the Presidents of the United States of America around 1990. The duo recorded a demo tape, which began circulating around the Seattle musical community and, in the process, earning them a cult following. Drummer Jason Finn, a member of Love Battery

If the Presidents Cup field was selected today, the United States team would have three rookies (Zach Johnson, Brett Wetterich, John Rollins). Rollins would be the only true rookie — Johnson and Wetterich played in the Ryder Cup in 2006. Johnson’s win in the AT&T Classic all but assures him a place on the squad. Scoitt Verplank, who won this month in the EDS Byron Nelson Championship, is making a late push to make the Presidents Cup squad for the second straight more…

NOTPutting together an energy policy the weens us off oil and onto cheaper, more environmentally friendly forms of energy? Yeah sureEducation? Poverty? Restoring the middle class? Not in our lifetime.Nope, what's really important is banning gay marriage (and for that matter all gay rights,) banning abortion and turning America into a Christian Theocracy.Yep, who needs allies, cheaper cleaner energy, or a middle class anyway, so long as we don't have gays or unwed mothers, and everyone's going to church, we're fine.This is my beef with the GOP.

The Buffalo Sabres’ 2-0 shutout of the Washington Capitals clinched the Presidents’ Trophy.  While Detroit creamed Chicago  7-2 and is tied in points with Buffalo, the Sabres have more wins.  Buffalo still has one game to go tomorrow, against the Flyers, but Detroit has wrapped up their regular season. The Sabres’ franchise-record 53rd win was enough to lock up the team’s first Presidents’ Trophy title and home-ice advantage throughout the Stanley Cup playoffs that begin next week. Buffalo will wrap up the regular season Sunday at Philadelphia. As a bonus, Tim Connolly scored a goal in his first game back since sustaining a concussion in last year’s playoffs.

wanna be presidents ( http://www.wannabepresidents.com/ ) is an aggregator of blogs for US 2008 presidential hopefuls. built with feevy (http://www.feevy.com/), wanna be presidents aggregates all presidential bloggers (currently 16 by their count) into three categories: republicans, democrats, and independents. wanna be presidents is an easy and effective way to view different campaigns on the same page.because feevy is built upon RSS, wanna be presidents relies on candidates' RSS feeds. in building the site, david de ugarte and i were quite surprised to discover that many republican presidential candidates, including john mccain, duncan hunter, and tom tancredo, have not integrated RSS into their web presences. no RSS?!? - who is advising these guys?

Hey, it’s Sunday Morning Reading time! And we’re doing it in a very quick way because I’m a little pressed for time getting ready for this week’s Secret Circus! So, let’s roll. This week, RightWingNews.com took a poll of 63 conservative bloggers on a couple of issues of the day. Two quick items from that: 4) Do you think mankind is the primary cause of global warming? Yes (0) — 0% No (59) — 100% 6) Which of the following Democratic candidates do you think would be the toughest opponent for a Republican candidate in 2008? A) Hillary Clinton (38) — 63% B) John Edwards (9) — 15% C) Barack Obama (13) — 22% Not unrelated, I’ve added a few new blogs to the links on the right side of this page. Included is Oh-Ate, which aggregates all of the blogs of major presidential candidates (with a couple of exceptions, for example Bill Richardson’s blog can’t be stripped in the necessary way). It makes for an interesting bir

Today is President's Day in the US. Presidents Day (United States)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Presidents' Day (United States)) Presidents Day (also styled President's Day or Presidents' Day) is the common name for the United States federal holiday...

In honor of President’s Day I have researched America’s Top Three President’s . What characteristics propelled them to the top of the greatest nation in the world? What does their personal development genius consist of? Who are considered America’s Top Three Presidents? George Washington Washington, a great war general, was also a man of conscious, a generous one at that. He lived by the philosophy of giving and said to “let your heart feel for the afflictions and distress of everyone, and let your hand give in proportion to your purse.” Washingston also believed that descipline is at the heart of success. Discipline is the soul of an army. It makes small numbers formidable; procures success to the weak, and esteem to all. While he does speak of the benefits of discipline in war, it is a metaphor for everyone, not just soldiers. When emotions and motivation wear thin, what we have left are acts of habit and discipline.

I wish I could take credit for this one but that goes to Mrs. Sims. I declare today National Hug A Teacher Day in her honor.The audio feed goes out of sync about half way through and I've tried everything You Tube suggests to remedy but you'll have to ignore it as best you can because I can't fix it--GRRR!! It cuts off his voice before he's finished with that stupid one-second delay. Are you listening to me You Tube?? Technorati tags: Alaska, motherhood, U.S. presidents, teachers

I am so sick and tired of these issues being considered in Presidential Races. Why can't we focus on the issues concerning American citizens and this nation rather than judge these people based on race, gender, ethnicity, religion, etc.I'm not a fan of Mitt Romney, but I will defend his right to NOT be judge based on the fact that he is a Mormon. His religion does not make him less of a better choice for President. Clearly, he is not Warren Jeffs and Massachusetts did not turn into an isolated LDS cult. We are doing a disservice to our country by ruling out potentially great leaders because of something stupid like their religious choices, their race, their gender, etc. Perhaps our best leaders may be women, Mormon, Jewish, African-American, Latino, Atheist, Homosexual...but we'll never know if we are willing to eliminate them for that reason.This is how idiots become Presidents...we limit our choices to Alpha Male White Anglo-Saxon Protestants. We should have learned by now that a

I couldn't believe of what I had read.  Bush borrowed more money than the amount of money that borrowed by the 42 presidents of the pasts combined.  Based on U.S. Treasury, from 1776-2000, the combined borrowed money of the past 42 presidents added up to $1.01 trillion, but from 2001-2004, Bush had borrowed $1.05 trillion.  Just remember this though, the wars of Iraq and Afghanistan are still ongoing, and the costs are continue to rise for these overdue wars.  Are we going for Iran too?  I hope not!  I bet most of the money that U.S. borrowed probably from China.  More at house.gov.
