    He is busy counting his votes - and then looking at those who did not vote for him.

    Then he will fall upon his victims like a shark in a feeding frenzy.

    Its best not to vote - or in this case to vote with your feet and leave.
    O well, seems like 'some' people decide to ruin a perfectly valid threat. Nice going guys... doc bean

    Neither- ME!

    Man, if I was in a position in power- talk about a weekend in hell.

    edit: Oops. Yeah, I should stay away from positions of power.

    Before we put you in power you could at least demonstrate you superior intelligence by spelling man correctly. Really its not such a hard word to spell.

    Lets all stop arguing about who is in power, I am a professional villain, i am going to take over the world from my secret lair that no-body knows about, , and from that i shall use my minions to torture all opposers by making them watch re-runs of Barney the Purple Dinosaur.

    NOW, who's going to rule the world?
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    But Pindar is but a lawyer and a poet. BP is a prince, after all. I hope he ruled by the book, the Prince.

    Okay, admit it. Pindar will establish an intellectual aristocracy that Plato suggested, and we the foolish Plebs will all be doomed. After all, at least half of us couldn't understand his posts without a dictionary.

    But, if you're looking for a powerful royalty to rule over you, I am available. Just make sure there's no Romans around, otherwise I'll beat Alexander himself for it.

    Most of the BP supporters are former Anti-Jamster Crusaders. Interesting.

    Perhaps Pindar is tainted by the ruinous powers of Jamster and we can all sense it.

    This is interesting. I've found myself not understanding certain words he uses too, as I'm sure most of us. Once I have though I have understood though, I find his position quite irrelevent or quite dissagreeable. That's why I don't see Pindar as this all-knowing genius you all make him out to be.

    After he has included a manual in one of his quotes.

    "Then let us again examine whether that is a sound statement, or do we let it pass, and if one of us, or someone else, merely says that something is so, do we accept that it is so? Or should we examine what the speaker means?" -Plato
    I think a lot of us, if not most let things pass, because they sound superior.

    That is false. Pindar is a mormon.

    Could we get a quick summary on what the candidates promise to do if they get to rule the world?
    If you're fighting fair you've made a miscalculation.

    I'm going to try to be unbiased.

    BP: Rid the world of all religions
    Pindar: A theocracy, under the book of Mormon.

    BP: Execute prisoners for fun
    Pindar: Wonder about the prisoner's right through his religious morals

    BP: Form socialist cluster states, similar in size to those of ancient greece
    Pindar: I don't know ask him

    BP: Make kids read hardcore modern philosophy
    Pindar: Make kids memorize the book of mormon.

    And Pindar has stated this where
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    That is deciding it. I am not so sure about book of Mormon, think it is may be a little silly or at least strange, but Pindar is making sense in other ways.

    Maybe we should ask Pindar,whatkind of looney he was when he was younger. BTW where is the Master of Horse?

    Topics like this one prove there is no justice in the world.
