QUESTION: Thank you, Mr. President. How will you go about bringing people together? Will you seek a consensus candidate for the Supreme Court if there's an opening? Will you bring some Democrats into your Cabinet?

I just registered to vote in the upcoming US elections, even though I live in Canada.  I was able to register through the help of the Federal Voting Assistance Program, which provides a simple registration form that can be used to register in every US state and territory except American Samoa and Guam.    US Citizens living overseas can register to vote in the US state they last physically resided in.  I lived in Owl's Head, Maine before I moved to Nova Scotia, so that's where I registered.    I meant to submit an article about my experience to help other US expatriates who are k5 readers, but life intervened and I didn't get around to registering until after the deadline for most states.    You might still be able to register depending on your state, and in any case your registration will still be valid for the 2006 elections.      The deadline for absentee voters in Maine is tomorrow.  Fortunately, Maine accepts the Federal Post Card Application by fax.  Not every state does, one reason the instructions are complex and hard to understand.    Read on for details of how you can register from overseas.

A couple of weeks ago I didn't really think Bill Clinton would be a problem if HIllary was elected. I thought he might be a curmudgeonly joke of a First Lady. "There he goes again, he's so funny." Yeah uh huh. Sure.  I didn't think it was an issue until Bill started throwing the mud so aggressively. Then I noticed that Hillary was talking about the first two terms as a plural accomplishment, as if she were in office then. The more he attacks and the more she takes credit for the first two terms, the more I think they're fucking with the Constitution.  Further, there are good reasons why the first lady (or first spouse) isn't actively involved in running the government, so we don't have to understand how good their marriage is, and they get a tiny bit of privacy. Then we remember how their marriage was in the middle of everything when they were in charge, and god damn we don't need that mess now. We've got so many other things to deal with. I'm so opposed to them that depending on who the Republicans nominate I could actually see myself voting for a Republican if Hillary is nominated. I can't believe that after listening to her on Meet The Press a couple of weeks ago I was almost ready to vote for her. What a mistake that would have been.
