I went to their website. Aside from my prior objection that a
presidential candidate is not the way to go, it seems to be attracting a
fair share of the kook population. A quick glance at the questions asked
by "delegates" gives:

"How do you intend to verify that you are a "natural born citizen"?"

"Will you declassify all documents from Area 51 within your first 100
days?

"As a means to solve the unemployment problem, would you precipitate
another world war, much as Roosevelt did when he placed an embargo on
Japan?"

You get the idea. Yes, there are quite a few sensible questions as
well. But as you have to become a "delegate" to ask a question, their
count of supporters is inflated by those who just want a place to hang
their tinfoil hat.

Ah well.

"How do you intend to verify that you are a "natural born citizen"?"

A. First, I'll have to consult with my attorney, then my mother. Can
I get back to you, on that?

"Will you declassify all documents from Area 51 within your first 100
days?

A. What's Area 51? Regarding 100 days, is this time-table to include
weekend days?

"As a means to solve the unemployment problem, would you precipitate
another world war, much as Roosevelt did when he placed an embargo on
Japan?"

A. On days with precipitation, we won't anticipate engaging in or
waging war. Furthermore, unemployment offices aren't open on
weekends, so we may not know, for sure, what the empoyment status of
the unemployed may be, and especially on days with precipitation.

I wouldn't be adverse for any president, or any presidential candidate
to express consideration, to giving a pardon, postumously, to Bobby
Fisher. Asking this of a president or presidential candidate might
give some indication of what may be his/her general mindset, in some
capacity, as opposed to the mindset one may reveal when they pardon
real criminals and such.

well the first question you quoted here is certainly a legit one. It
was never answered (and can't be) with the current admin.

I was going to make the same comment Doug, but figured it was a waste of
time :-).

Quick trick quiz:

About what percentage of the population of London is African-American? (see
below)

Probably less than 1/100th of 1 percent. Blacks in the UK would more
properly be called African-Anglos. Of course most Britishers simply call
them "colored."

That would be Native American.
Even they are immigrants from Asia.

According to the inhabitants of the reservation just up the road, it's
American Indian. Native American was invented by the (attempting to be)
politically correct white man.
