Well, it's not beer, but she seems like she'd be happy to sit down and have some Chipotle with you. That's gotta score points with the younger crowd. They love Chipotle.samsonlonghair wrote:There's also the so-called "drink a beer" study that shows that voters prefer the candidate with whom they would rather drink a beer.

I mean what else is there to do during the winter in Alaska?Luke wrote:Sarah Palin drank a ton of beer last time she visited Greenville NC, and I doubt it had anything to do with getting votes.samsonlonghair wrote:There's also the so-called "drink a beer" study that shows that voters prefer the candidate with whom they would rather drink a beer.

I never understood this "better economy thing" , whenever the economy goes up, it just goes down again. I heard that the economy was great during Clinton's era but bad during Bush's, and now its picking up again. I believe it takes at least 2-3 years to improve the economy. It needs to stay up longer where the whole country is improved. I guess something like Turkey, China, and India.samsonlonghair wrote:It seems to me that in Presidential elections, the most important factor is the economy, which is kind of funny considering that the economy is one thing that the President has relatively little control over.
The cost of the Japanese car is also directly caused by the value of the Japanese Yen. If the Yen is doing better against the dollar, than the car becomes more expensive. Japan's economy was relatively poor in the 1990s and early 2000s, saw improvements in the mid-2000s, and then saw new damage with the recession. As for the US economy, it did well in the post-Cold War era(particularly with the dot-com bubble), had a stumble in the early 2000s(as the dot-com bubble burst) but recovered until around 2008, where the housing crisis occurred. The stock market for the US has recovered with flying colors, but due to low interest rates, it could be argued that the stock market has been artificially propped up since no one can make money on interest from banks, which causes everyone to invest in stocks instead.RCBH928 wrote:I never understood this "better economy thing" , whenever the economy goes up, it just goes down again.

I care about US economy because my local currency is tied to the dollar, if it goes down everything else becomes expensive for me. There was a specific Japanese car model that used to cost $47K 12 years ago now it costs $71K . Not sure if low Dollar value or inflation.
