That's where Larry and I part ways. I think this is basically a hangar flying session, where conversations among pilots range widely across the board. Oh, so you only want to enforce the parts of the charter that are convenient to you. Not surprised. |

flying session, where conversations among pilots range widely across the board. Oh, so you only want to enforce the parts of the charter that are convenient to you. Not surprised. I never said anything about enforcing any "charter". I am, however, opposed to personal attacks on other posters -- as your post so nicely illustrates. Your obsession with this topic seems odd. I suggest flying as an elixir to cheer your tortured soul... It works for me! -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

![]() "John Mazor" wrote The first few primaries are all about money - convincing contributors to put their money on you and not the other candidates. Only later is it about winning enough delegates for the nominating convention. Yes, but if a candidate does not do well in the early showings, he/she will not get enough money, and usually have to drop out, all together. That is what I object to, in the big picture. They are not around to get my state's vote (and my vote) to be a possible choice. I resent that. BIG time. I'll bet in the last 30 years, half of the early primaries have eliminated my top choice in the presidential primary. Some few states have been allowed to make choices for the country, that should be made by the WHOLE country. Simply, it sucks. -- Jim in NC |

![]() "Jay Honeck" wrote Two ideas: 1. Hold all state primaries on the same day, by law no more than six months in advance of the presidential election. (This never-ending electioneering must end...) 2. Make Election Day a national holiday, as is done in many democracies. (Before you think I've gone soft, though, in order to do this Congress must eliminate one other national holiday...) I think #1 would go a long ways toward leveling the playing field, and #2 would help address our absurdly low election day turnout. Possible ideas, not bad. One improvement to 1. There really needs to be two primaries, where the dozen or so candidates for each party are trimmed down to perhaps 5 choices after the first primary, to 2 choices after the second primary, for each party. Again, all on the same day, and not too far ahead of election day. If that is not done, I see a few cohesive minority groups getting their candidates on the ticket, and the moderate, majority voters, split their votes among dozens of non descript candidates. Perhaps not a very good correlation, but I see this type of thing happen all the time in elections in high school for things like student council, and prom/homecoming queens and court. -- Jim in NC |

One could say the same about you then since you see a kook's posting and
automatically decide what party he supports and what that party thinks about. "skym" wrote in message ...
