Neither Republicans Nor Democrats Deserve The Presidency In 2008


The way things are going in Washington and throughout the nation, neither Republicans nor Democrats deserve to win the 2008 presidential election. There are a few responsible and concerned elected officials in both parties; however, they are the exception rather than the norm.

Boles loved to sing and gladly did so throughout high school. But his parents had their son
