Help Select Questions for Bush and Kerry
This is a strange post in that it has 50 comments attached to it already. These are 50 questions for Bush and Kerry selected by non-Slashdot moderators, as explained in our original call for help with the New Voters Project Presidential Youth Debate. At this point, where you come in is not only with extra-insightful moderation of these 50 questions, but with your "many eyes" trying to spot questions these two candidates have answered elsewhere so that the final questions presented to them are not repeats. The first 40 questions are from potential voters aged 18 - 35. The last 10 are from future voters 13 - 17. And that's enough explanation. From here we might as well jump right into the questions...

Feed the plentiful ones to the endangered ones.
And considering that the question is about home-schooling, that's just gross.
Show me on the doll where his noodly appendage touched you.
I would love to see each of them answer...:
What is your biggest weakness. What is your opponent's biggest strength?
I think there is a world market for maybe five personal web logs.
Assuming the moon was made of green cheese, I would eat it.
Assuming the rights of the customers are protected, I would gladly buy books online.
Oh wait! They are, and I do!

Assuming Natalie Portman couldn't keep her hands off me, I'd do her.
Or assuming you could knock her unconscious when no one is around. Don't limit your options.
While I disagree strongly with the implications of this question ( ie that the US will have a right to overrule the democratic wishes or the Iraqis when they finally get a vote ), I would be interested to hear what Bush and Kerry have in mind. I imagine both will simply label the elections as being invalid, using the excuse that the Iraqi people were terrorised by the terrorists into voting for terrorists because of all the extreme terrorism occuring in the terrorist state of Iraq. Terrorist.
How do you spell your last name?
How old are you?
What is your favorite color?
This one, clearly, should be given to Vice Presidential candidate John Edwards. Though I've no doubt he could deliver a smooth-talk answer, smiling through sharks' teeth.
When I grow up and become President I will be truthful and honest and I won't talk bad about the other guy.
Ah, the idiocy of youth...
A deep unwavering belief is a sure sign you're missing something...
If we switched to Metric dollars, the conversion rate would erase the national debt in nothing flat.
Senator Kerry, we all know that George W. Bush (43) looks just like George H. W. Bush (41) for obvious reasons, but can you explain your own peculiar resemblance to Andrew Jackson ?
Liberals call everyone Nazis yet they are the closest thing to it.
Actually, if you are carefully introspective of those answers which were answered by myself and my opponent, you will notice that he answered the questions far less directly than I.
I answered the questions you gave me directly, speaking to the concerns of the American people, who, I believe, should vote for me as their candidate. If you look at my record it is clear that I represent all that is good in the world, and will lead us into a stronger nation is this new, post-9/11 world.
The questions posed showed what a diverse and complex world we live in these days. As a result, you should vote for me, because I am best able to cope with these new issues as we move further into the 21st century.
Sincerely,
Either Candidate.
OK, so is having only Florida decide the election any better?

This is modded at a '4', which is too "high".

Found this though it would be good for a laugh. http://discourse.net/archives/2004/09/hey_florida_ have_you_got_the_hint_yet.html
