Clinton Gore campigned and recieved money from Charley Tre,Buddist monks.?
1996 United States campaign finance controversy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search President Clinton with convicted fund-raiser Charlie TrieThe 1996 United States campaign finance controversy was an alleged effort by the People's Republic of China (PRC) to influence domestic American politics prior to and during the Clinton administration and also involved the fund-raising practices of the administration itself. While questions regarding the U.S. Democratic Party's fund-raising activities first arose over a Los Angeles Times article published on September 21, 1996,[1] My question to all you Eviromentalists is Why is Al Gore Leader of your movement mandate law that we can only buy incandesent light bulbs with the only producer being CHINA?, Why can't the US make them, and isn't this outsourcing?

First, I think your mistaken about Al Gore's concern with the environment. Otherwise, why would he push for a light bulb that contains MERCURY to replace the incandescent lamp? As for illegal campaign contributions, from sworn to poverty monks and nums, the Clintons want you to forget.

Gore is a liar and a charlatan! He stands to make tons of money if the majority of America falls for his Green push. Just remember this as a rule of thumb...if celebrities support it, it's probably bogus. I do agree that we could make this bulb cheaper and more efficiently than the Chinese but then the Clinton/Gore's main contributor would lose funds. Pretty capitalist like for a bunch of commies. Hypocrites!

What do you think of Trump's China book recommended reading list (look inside)?
What do you think of Trump's China book recommended reading list (look inside)?
I would like to hear everyone's opinion (50-centers and real people) on Donald Trump's China reading list. Does the negative theme of these books reflect the American public's perception of China and the Chinese? Or would you consider these books essential reading to understanding China and Chinese culture? http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2011/05/donald-trump-i-understand-the-chinese-mind.html BEIJING -- Following his call for a 40% tariff on Chinese-made goods, prospective Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump backed up his proposed trade war with China by revealing his 20 favorite books about China which, Trump said, helped shaped his political and economic outlook on the Communist republic. "I've read hundreds of books about China over the decades," Trump said in a recent interview with Xinhua, the official press agency of the People's Republic of China. "I know the Chinese. I've made a lot of money with the Chinese. I understand the Chinese mind." When later asked if he would care to list some of his favorite books about China, the billionaire mogul, an author himself of numerous books, proceeded to recite by memory his top twenty. Here they are in the order in which they were named: 1. The Party by Richard McGregor 2. On China by Henry Kissinger 3. Mao: The Untold Story by Jung Chang 4. Tide Players by Jianying Zha 5. One Billion Customers by James McGregor 6. The Coming China Wars by Peter W. Navarro 7. The Beijing Consensus by Stefan Halper 8. China CEO by Juan Antonio Fernandez and Laurie Underwood 9. Poorly Made in China by Paul Midler 10. CHINA: Portrait of a People by Tom Carter 11. The Man Who Loved China by Simon Winchester 12. China Shakes the World by James Kynge 13. Mr. China by Tim Clissold 14. Country Driving by Peter Hessler 15. The Dragon's Gift by Deborah Brautigam 16. Factory Girls by Leslie T. Chang 17. The Heavenly Man by Brother Yun 18. 1421 by Gavin Menzies 19. Seven Years in Tibet by Heinrich Harrer 20. Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua Apparently the American public is as interested in hearing about Donald Trump's reading habits as much as his political platform. Polls show that he is presently the leading candidate for the GOP ticket. Trump says he will make a formal decision about running for president in May following the season finale of his popular reality television show, Celebrity Apprentice. Source: Xinhua .

Whoever to become the president of the usa makes no difference to China. By the way, isnt Donald Trump the guy who files bankruptcy as regular as people drinking pepsi ? lol ..... .

The list shows he is interested in 3 things only, he won't run for president: hair, young women and money. He doesn't mind how he makes his money, even by committing fraud, his "Trump University" is under class lawsuit. What kind of billionaire would do a reality show for 10 seasons?

Welllll, I definetly recommend #20. Being Chinese, I totally understand, but all the stuff Americans say about China is bias. Communism is not as bad as people say it is. It provides order, and made China the great power it is today, especially economy wise-which is capitalist controlled by a communist government, showing that communism beats democracy in that sense. But, China should raise their money value, it IS way too low, $1 - about 6.5 RMB. It sure would help out the world economy

Why does the US borrow money from China, Saudi Arabia, and others to pay for the Bush Tax Cuts?
This burden is later passed to all citizens in a form of taxes to pay the interest of the loan and the principal. Does it make sense to you?

Income tax receipts SKY-ROCKETED -- due to expanding economy -- after Bush's tax-cuts went in effect... Too bad, Bush and Republican-owned Legislature failed to keep SPENDING restrained :-(
2 :
You have confused yourself. Over spending by Congress has been going on for 70 years. Lowered tax rates have generated more in total tax dollars. The problem is too much spending by the federal government. Repeat that sentence out loud for 100 time is a row. It may sink in.

Beautiful way to totally confuse a question. Your numbers only refer to foreign debt. The majority of treasury bonds are held in the US. US treasury bonds are the most secure investment in the world. Other countries don't buy them to do us a favor. They buy them because they're a better investment than their own bonds.
4 :
There are know tax cuts to pay for. Peace
5 :
The government has to borrow money to feed its spending addiction. It has this addiction because spending appeases voters in the short-term. Unfortunately, tightening the belt is always put off "just a few more years". Such lack of long-term (or even medium-term) sight leads to disaster.
