Pumpi, didn't you write that you live in Panama? I'm confused.
By the way, not voting is definitely the worst thing anyone can do. People die fighting for the right to vote. I always vote, just so I count as a citizen of my country.
A final note - if you don't vote and you don't believe in Democracy, then you really shouldn't be telling anyone how to vote. I would never vote for Mike Huckabee, but I wouldn't care if he were 100 pound soverweight. At first I thought you were joking, but I think you are serious. Nobody should ever be elected because of the way he or she looks. If that were the case Catherine Zeta-Jones & Halle Berry would probably be elected.

Of course, under some forms of government, you can't vote. If you think the Huckster's weight is bad, you should take a look at his policies. They're downright scary.

i live in Panama....
I am less than 30 years old and i put myself in the shoes of people that are older than me, and i have to see how they will experience the world and know that when you are older the more older you get the harder it is to lose weight and the kids and the bills AND

i was going to say AND the chores...

I know, Pumpi. You mentioned it before. I feel very badly that you struggle with weight. Today my head hurts so much I can hardly sit up, so I know how physical problems can affect people. However, I still don't think anyone should be judged solely by his/her body weight. Sure I look at someone and think "what a fat slob" but I think the same for a skinny slob if that person is wearing his breakfast or his butt crack is showing. Thank goodness I've never seen Mike Huckabee's. :-)   

BTW, have you ever seen Ted Kennedy?
