Here is a thought experiment where I have "cherry-picked" certain facts from certain past leaders. This experiment is an attempt to prove how "Cherry-Picking" the facts can affect the outcome of a vote, or anything else for that matter, especially if ALL facts are not used. Furthermore, just by saying this is a "cherry-picking" experiment will also affect the outcome.
However, I would like for everyone who is going to place a vote to seriously think about who you would vote for by using only the four facts as listed for each candidate. Furthermore, this is a "blind" voting where you do not know the name nor the face of each candidate.
Additionally, I would like for all to refrain from just posting a bunch of comments unless you are also actually placing a vote. If you wish to make comments, then "Please" make the first line your vote, then follow with a blank line, then follow with comments. Thanks.
I shall leave this up for a week. Maybe two weeks. Then I shall reveal who the candidates are.
Now on to the candidates:
CANDIDATE 1
- Drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.
- Has two wives.
- Smokes all the time.
- Seeks advice from astrologists.
CANDIDATE 2
- Was removed from office twice.
- Sleeps until noon.
- Was into opium in college.
- Drinks a bottle of whiskey each day.
CANDIDATE 3
- Is a vegetarian.
- Does not smoke, or drink alcohol.
- Never cheated on his wife.
- Has several war medals.
Remember, vote for whom you think is best just by the listed facts.
Thanks, for your time.

P.S.- My posting is going to be limited for quite some time. Got back from work on Thursday and later in the afternoon, I suffered a major gall bladder attack. Thus, I need to take it very easy for the next two weeks. Sorry for anyone missing me, as if anyone did. Richard.
