Can you give me an example of a question that can't be turned into a debate about presidential candidates?

Feel free to debunk each other.

    Hmm. Guess with bad intentions everything can be turned into either politics, religions or sex. I'll be watching this thread as the replies will drop in. It should be interesting.

    Let me see - how about this?

    When was the last time you observed anyone snatch a volant Dytiscus marginalis out of the air*?

    *without harming it in any way.

  • That reminds me of the independent vote, and how both candidates are trying to snatch it up, from the air without harming it.

  • I actually thought the same thing when I saw his statement. Anything??
    I gave up after a little. Anything, can be turn into a debate about the elections, and we don't even have to be exceedingly clever either.

  • "Who is your choice of the presidential candidates?"  

                         (It already is ... :):) )

  • Probably not. You could turn any topic into a political issue at this point. You just have to work in, "but ______ are trying to take away your right to do that" or "you won't be able to do _______ after ________ gets elected".

    Not as deaf as some politicians that will tell us what one of the presidential candidates did NOT say although it's on tape and shared with the public previously.

    Well, I'll tell you what. It used to be a whole lot easier befor X party took control and destroyed the environment. Now it's like you never see a volant Dytiscus marginalis at all.
