I had an easy senior year in high school. I believe colleges accept you based on your 9th-11th grades, maybe first semester of senior year, because you are accepted in most colleges before you graduate. I didn't take a math or science, I had already fulfilled them. Advanved P.E., we played sports all class lol, and other easy classes. i have to take art class lol and another computer class to graduate.

yeah...you still have a ways to go...and let me warn you...Junior year was BY FAR the hardest year! i have pretty much made up my mind on what I'm doing...wasnt that hard for me...I'm a republican...i love politics....so i go to Liberty University! lol. I'm into politics too. i follow everything pretty closely. hey do you like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert? man i love those shows. Colbert is hilarious. like i said, one day i will be president. add that to my resume of success. democrat here i dont watch the Daily show anymore...Jon Stewart is no longer funny to me...he spends all his time mocking Bush and trashing Republicans...it gets old. The Colbert Report is MUCH funnier.... i hope thats not where you get your political info though...thats whats wrong with a lot of young people in the world today...we don't get involved enough. if you want to really learn something watch The O'Reilly Factor on Fox. its on right now actually... the best show is Hannity and Colmes...Sean Hannity is one of the smartest human beings on the planet...also you should get into talk radio. thats where you learn the most. Jay Severn is awesome... also...i suggest that you go out and buy a book called "Godless, The Church of Liberalism" by Ann Coulter. you will learn A LOT about the Liberal party. i refuse to call the democrats anymore... one more thing...try to stay away from MS NBC and CNN...thats all i use to watch until i found Fox News...its unreal how much CNN lies... Like i said earlier though...just stay informed...dont be brain washed by the Clintons, Howard Dean, John Kerry, or Al Franken...i have no problem with democrats like yourself...i do have a problem with the Liberals that have ruined that political party...if you want to follow a true democrat you should read up on Joe Lieberman...he is a real democrat.

We dont get FOX, NBC, CBS, ESPN, etc. What they do is get the shows from all those channels from American tv and put them onto our channels, we have about 8 different AFN channels. I get most of my news from the internet, due to the lack of tv shows and their irregular programming (AFN covers Europe and Asia so we will have George Lopez airing in the morning here, and then again in the evening).

He Dallas how do you feel about the gay marriage, Israel/Lebanon (WWIII?), and stem cell research?
Gay Marriage: I dont really care. Personally, I'd rather not have them be married, but marriage has lost its meaning these days. I would probably vote no on gay marriage, its just a title nowadays. They could just be together. However it doesnt bother me entirely, so a yes is possible but doubtful.
Israel/Lebanon: I personally feel Israel needs to chill out. Yeah the Hezbollah took the soldiers, but they are engaging an international affair and could spark a big war. I heard many people already hint at the possibility of WWIII, which I said a long time ago before I heard them say it. I think we are supporting Israel's actions to much, a ceasefire might be necessary.
Stem Cell: I am for it. However I have a bad feeling in the same sense. I like the idea of cloning organs that could be used in case of emergency, however I feel others might take it to far. Cloning humans is a no-no for me. Also, the I dont support sex choosing. It is popular here in some places and could lead to "super humans." The rich can have children that wont bald, be athletic, not obese, could create a perfect human and take out the natural process of having children. The poor will be lower quality and "normal" humans because they couldnt afford it. I think that needs to stop.

i agree with you on some things...
Gay Marriage-
This in my opinion is just wrong...it desecrates the sanctity of marriage...i mean if two guys are allowed to get married what will stop me from going out and getting married to a cow or somthing...if we allow gay marriage we have to allow everything! I believe in civil union...but Gay Marriage is wrong.
Israel/Lebanon:
In my opinion Lebanon is getting just what they deserve. they attack Israel on a daily basis....Israel is just sick and tired of dealing with it.
Lebanon should know better than to mess with Israel also...Israel doesn't screw around! they deal with terrorism the right way...quickly and with force.
Stem Cell:
i have a REAL problem with this...its ok i guess if the baby died of natural causes...and they want to use the fetus for research. but abortion is horrible and should be outlawed. i just dont understand how liberals can endorse abortion then turn around and stand against capitol punishment...how does that make sense??? Abortion is murder...plain and simple.

I think every state is different on its requirements for graduation. I did not have to take any art classes. However, I did have to take a test so I could get my dipolima. That was hard, but I made it. Spurs is right you don't have to know what you want to do when you start college. I thought I knew, but during the 2nd semester of the first yea I knew I wanted to change. I did not get to though because my gpa was a too low to get money. Oh yea one more thing
GO REPUBLICANS!!!!!!!

Abortion is murder...plain and simple. Gay Marriage: Personally I don't have a problem with this. I guess it does take away some meaning to marriage, but seriously, who the f*ck would wanna marry a cow? There's s a Simpsons' episode all about this by the way. I also somewhat believe this is genetic. I'm from New Jersey, and as you probably all know, we had a gay governor. Many people can't control it and I believe it should be there choice; I don't feel like it affects other's much either. Israel/Lebanon: I'm Jewish so I clearly support Israel. My views are more liberal than conservative but I, along with many Democrats, support Bush's views on this issue. Israel has been pushed around for awhile and taken a lot of sh!t from other Middle Eastern countries, where they are pretty much against all of their neighboring countries. They have to stand up to the "bullies" with force. They cannot back down and need to make a point to the other countries that they will not be pushed around and won't tolerate the bullsh!t from terrorist organizations. Stem Cell Research: I am in favor of stem cell research. However, I understand it can become very dangerous if they reach the wrong hands, so I feel we should put strict restrictions on this and monitor it. I'm only 15 so I'm not too informed and understanding about every political situation we currently are facing, but most of my views are to the side of the Democrats. However, many of my economic views would side me with Republicans because I am a firm believer that a country needs to have big, strong businesses to support our entire economy.
