Robbie, I just asked my nine year old, "What do they use a bible for in court?" and she gave the right answer, including a little detail about how witnesses place their hands on the bible before swearing on oath. So, even a nine year old understands that the bible is not used as evidence- but apparently, you don't.. Don't you feel a little embarrassed that you got it completely wrong? I wouldn't be able to show my face in here after making myself look THAT stupid. -- Steve O a.a. #2240 (Apatheist Chapter) B.A.A.W.A. Convicted by Earthquack Exempt from purgatory by papal indulgence

This has the effect of keeping independent voter registration under party control. Here in Arizona the parties made the mistake of putting a check box on the voter registration form marked None,(with regard to party preference), and within ten years Arizona had the highest rate of independent voter registration in the nation. The number of independent voters increased from about 2% to 25% before they took the option to register independent off of the voter registration form. I don't think you will see them do that again.
