No (explian)
and said : I do not think it should be taken out. The Pledge was founded by people who were in a time where religious diversity wasn't an issue. I do not believe in God, so I typically do not say the Pledge. Or I say it and just skip the "under God" part. Like in school, we are not required to say the Pledge, but we must stand as respect to the American Flag, which I will do.

No.
and said : I've never gone. There is no way I'm waking up that early on a Friday, especially since I have no money to spend! My mother and sister always go. But I don't think they are going this year. We've been really tight on money and my dad got laid off work. Plus my mom has been buying presents year round since it is easier that way. I just hope she hasn't lost them!

Why do people go around saying that Obama is the Black Pres? He is half white ! Is everyone in denial of his white side or what?

If they admitted that he was half white, then he wouldn't be unique!
and said : Because we don't see the white, we see the black. He is the first president that is visibly black, so of course people are going to notice. But the color of his skin does not justify whether he will make a good president. Though if he fails as a president I'm sure people will blame it on the fact that he is black, and in return, ruining it for any future candidates of another color other than white, that could possibly make a fantastic president. So hopefully that doesn't happen. We can only hope.

I think...
and said : I'm kind of iffy about it. I'm a McCain supporter, but I figured Obama would win. Either way I had my doubts and worries about whoever became President. No matter if you supported Obama or not, all we can do is hope that this country gets a major turn around. I wish Obama and everyone in America the best of luck!

...days
and said : 16 days. It was when I was born, so I don't remember. I was born 3 months premature. My mother was driving and some drunk driver smashed into the rear end of her car, causing her stomach to hit the steering wheel, and her water to break. They did an emergency C-Section, and I came out purple, not breathing. I spent 16 days in the hospital trying to get to the weight allowed for my mother to take me home. For the next 6 months I had to be on a machine to help me breathe. Luckily since then I have had no breathing/lung problems at all! Though the funny thing is, is that I came out butt first! I wasn't ready to come out, so I thought I'd moon the doctors!

Undecided
and said : The past year and a half I got really bad stomach problems, and I saw 7 different doctors, none of which took much time or effort to figure out what was wrong with me. Some ran tests, some didn't. Three actually told me all the pain I was experiencing was all in my head. But trust me, it wasn't. You can't fake that kind of pain. The doctor I have now is fantastic. She's the only one who really listened to me and said "I believe you" She ran a few tests, and when they found nothing, she referred me to a gastroenterologist who found out I was low in zinc, had a severe digestive problem (food passed too quickly in my digestive tract) And she found out I was allergic to garlic, red sauces, and milk. Very simple diagnosis, yet 7 other doctors could not find what was wrong, so they just gave up. Luckily I was able to find a great doctor. They're out there, just so hard to find!

This is what comes to my mind
and said : Sadness. I cannot eat fast food anymore (diagnosed with digestive disorder and now must eat very very healthy. McDonalds salads don't count!) BUT when I was able to eat there, I would switch between 2 McChickens or a Double Quarter Pounder w/cheese (no mustard). And I would ALWAYS get a root beer with it, but now they don't offer root beer anymore. And when the snack wraps first came out, I was ADDICTED. They must've put crack in those or something...

and said : This is actually my brothers story, because it is much better than any of mine. And there is a great lesson to be learned in it: LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER! This is a timeline of the incidents that all tie together. Remember, this is my brother. Age 1 1/2: My mom told him to NOT jump on the couch because he could get hurt. Being a child of course, he would stop, then start again. Sure enough one night he jumped off the couch and broke his leg. Age 6: My mom was gardening in the yard and my brother was playing on the porch. He found a glass bottle (to this day none of us can figure our where it came from) When my mom saw him playing with it she yelled at him to put it down and stop, and as she came over to take it away, sure enough he stepped on it and it broke. Let's just say there was a lot of blood, a lot of crying, and a lot of stitches! Age 8: Our friend down the street got some rollerblades, and my brother wanted to try them out. When he asked my mom if he could, she said no, because he could get hurt. Well, he ignored what my mom said, and while at the friends house, he put them on, skated, tripped, fell, and cracked his head open. Again, lots of blood, lots of crying, lots of stitches. Age 10: My brother was playing nintendo, and had it set up to where it was on top of the tv. My mom told him to take it down and put it on the floor. Well, as he was going to take it down, he accidently pulled on the controller cord, and it pulled the nintendo off and it fell on his head. Wasn't as drastic as the other things, but I'm sure it didn't feel nice! Age 12: My mom walked by my brothers room and noticed it was a little messy. So she told him to clean his room. Well, he didn't and a few hours later he tripped over a cord, fell, and broke his wrist in 2 places. So listen to your mom, kids! My brother is now 19 and luckily he hasn't been hurt since that last accident. Mainly because he started listening to mommy! When it comes to my mom, the saying is true, "Mother knows best!"

It was ''''''''''''''''
and said : "Wicked Attraction" About a couple who would go and pick up teenage girls, rape them, torture them, then kill them, all on video. The man got life in prison. The woman cut a deal and served 10 years. Saying she was "forced" into helping him. The psycho has been out of jail since 2004. That is SO wrong. At ANYTIME she could have ran, saved one or ALL of the girls. She is just as much responsible as he is. Just sick.

and said : I'm pretty sure it is the mosquito. Not the bug itself, but the diseases it carries. But I'm pretty sure that's only in 3rd world countries where the cures and medicine for them are scarce. I know hippos and elephants kill the most people in Africa (aside from mosquitos) They are very dangerous! Actually, there are so many dangerous animals out there, it's hard to pick just one! Though I'm pretty sure humans kill more humans than anything else. How sad is that?!
