It is said that this candidate would be a doctor, a mechanic, a scientist and a warrior but he is all rolled into one. His intellect and power are second to none. But further, he is truly a compassionate and kind individual whose wisdom knows no bounds. This candidate is well listen to him introduce himself.

Welcome to the campaign Optimus Prime. So just what makes Optimus Prime such a strong candidate for being President in these tough times? Let us turn to the issues.

Economy – Far from the failings of mortal men driven my lust of money and power, Optimus needs not these things and he possesses the wisdom and knowledge to produce precisely calculated solutions. This is not a guarantee all will like the solutions, but the best possible outcome is what he will produce.

Freedom - His words say it best. “Freedom is the right of all sentient beings.” There is little doubt this would extend to the unborn.

Gun Control – Optimus Prime would make Ted Nugent proud. He fully understands the need to be armed for self-defense and the defense of those who are unable to defend themselves. After all as the photo shows, he’s always packing heat with or without a permit for the hidden variety.

Self-Control – He is the definition of cool under pressure. You would not find him breaking down in tears.

Commander-In-Chief – There is no candidate more qualified to be Commander-in-Chief as this is a position he currently fulfills. Additionally, casualties to our men and women will reduce as his Secret Service Autobots will be able to roll out at a moment’s notice. He is also more than willing to take a bullet for you and me. War is something he knows all too well and he strives to prevent collateral damage and casualties.

Civil Liberties – He is so steadfast in the protection of Civil Liberties he is willing to lay down his life for them.

Political Experience – With an untold number of years of experience, Optimus is in Prime shape to tackle the challenges of taking on the deceptive ones. He knows just what lines to use to lay down the challenge and move in for the final defeat.

He definitely cannot be accused of being too robotic or wooden. To demonstrate his charismatic side and connect with the youth, Optimus Prime has proven he can dance far better than current President George Bush.

There is no question of torn allegiances. He is here to protect and to serve. Patience is a forte and part of the wisdom he has been granted. He knows how to wait in this his home.

So as a picture of the future for all foreign leaders to prepare for and attempt to negotiate with let us look to the future:

For many people, this election for the next President of the USA is turning out to be a collection of bad choices. It is time for other potential candidates to be reviewed. Perhaps one of these two natural born candidates can be the best option to write-in as the next President of the United States.

Let me introduce the first of two contenders complete with his running mate. Welcome to the stage, The Brain!!

Now The Brain’s credentials are quite impressive even though his physical stature is not that great. He may not look the part of a President but he has the prerequisite intelligence we need in one to lead us into more prosperous times. To demonstrate his mental prowess and his impressive skills at diction, please review the next exhibit.

At the very least, The Brain is a viable candidate for President of the USA in the light that he is honest in speech and in his campaign music that his goal is to take over the world. Honesty in a politician is a rare treat.

As the debate continues to rage about global warming, some of the most fundamental aspects of any study are being ignored by the greater media (surprise, surprise). One of the leading contenders of global warming has been tagged to be the sun. But there is greater proof that the increase in reported temperatures is truly man-made just not in the manner Al Gore and company would have you believe.

Boiling it all down, it is well known much of the hype is full of hot air. Basic science requires one to follow the data. However, that assumes if the data is accurate. If the data is inaccurate, then it is time to go back to the scientific drawing board and do it over. Especially before we do something foolish as have the Congress make rash decisions and implement fixes to a non-issue.

As is being documented by a number of volunteers, there are 1221 weather stations that gather data used to determine changes in temperature and weather. They have visited 502 sites so far with many more to go on a shoestring budget. To demonstrate their findings, a number of sites have been put up such as Watt’s Up With That? archive, the newer version found here, and Surface Stations which is upgrading due to heavy traffic. The basic standards call for any weather station to meet a set of standard specifications with one of the most important of being 100 feet away asphalt, concrete, buildings, vehicles and the like.

Quite simply, the devil is in the details to use a phrase. If the data collected is in error then contorted even further by politicians and enthusiasts, it all adds up to a much greater problem. Once again it falls to the populace to become educated about real science by itself and keep all of these various interested parties honest. This starts at home with the parents correcting erroneous information pressed on the kids at school.

Oh, minor detail as well. That data shows no warming since 1998 which can be found at most valid scientific sources. Additionally, much of the data cited by Al Gore conveniently has only been done within my lifetime. So to make long term projections out of short term recordings and potentially inaccurate recordings is folly.
