I think the following article (link below) should be read by all media outlets. I found it very interesting. As an American deciding who to vote for as our next President, I want to know all of the FACTS! I don't want biased news programs and papers giving me their opinions or trying to sway my vote. It is MY vote not theirs. This article was written to the media about the housing crisis, the President, and congressional leaders. There is a lot of blame going around, But I want the facts before I vote, for the next President, and for members of congress. Read the article. What do you think? BTW, the writer of this article is a Democrat.

While I admire Orson Scott Card's abilities as a novelist and thoroughly enjoy his books, I do not consider him an expert on the financial crisis.

Nice opinion piece, lol!

The problem isn't that poor people are losing their houses. That would be easy to fix.

Ender's Game is one of my all time farorite books.....but I've read his views on homosexuality and while they may well line up with his faith's take on things, they don't line up much with science.

Have you read "The Tales of Alvin Maker" series?

Yes, I did read the first couple of those books and throught the alternative history pretty interesting. Card himself is actually pretty scary ;-)
