PietroChoko,

Brother...if it weren't so damn hard to gain citizenship in Aussie and New Zealand...my family and I would've moved there a long time ago.

KMackDaddyYearYouWereAssumedlyBorn:

come over here. its easy as. we have bigger cars here than the US of A. Razz

nah seriously, i was talkin with a friend and he came up with an excellent point:

in the US votes, the president who is "voted in" does not hold the majority of votes.

eg 3 candidates go up for election, and if say bush get 37% of the vote, Kerry 33% and Nader 30%, then Bush wins. stupid!!!!!!!!!!

here, it's bicameral, which means that 2 parties go up. there are many candidates (parties) and the votes from the minority parties go to their preffered party.

it does make sense moreso than the american way. no offense Confused .

seriously KMack, move 'ere to adelaide and ull get a job easy as. not that the economy is crap (its in its best shape ever), but move 'ere and have fun drivin around in Pontiac GTO's which are made here in adelaide and are called "monaro" (classic iconic ozzi car of the 70's. kinda like the camaro ss).
