We are very excited to add Bobby Gonzalez as our head coach to an already storied basketball tradition at Seton Hall. Our search process was very thorough and we talked with extremely talented candidates, but in the end we felt Bobby stood out as the best coach to represent the university and lead our student-athletes. He has an established presence in the metropolitan area and his teams have been perennial winners on the court.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over lousy fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average of the world’s great civilizations before they decline has been 200 years. These nations have progressed in this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; from faith to great courage; from courage to liberty; from liberty to abundance; from abundance to selfishness; from selfishness to Complacency; from complacency to apathy; from apathy to dependency; from dependency back again to bondage.

What in fact takes place in an election is that two hand picked candidates are propped up before the citizenry, each candidate having been selected by a very small group of politically active people. A minority of the people... then elects one of these hand picked people to rule itself and the majority.

Which one of the three candidates would you want your daughter to marry?

As the state's chief elections officer, Secretary Williams will continue to apply Texas law to all candidates in an even manner, and will not grant special treatment to any candidate.

At its most base level, the sheer wealth of these candidates shows that representative democracy in California isn't representative at all. These are wealthy, white individuals and that makes it that much harder for them to represent all of California's diversity.

Bush Sr. was a jerk, Quayle an idiot, Clinton was atrocious and disgusting, most of those who persecuted him were hypocritical, Gore is shallow and weak, Bradley is an idealist, Bush Jr. a fool, and all of the independent candidates act like they're on drugs.

Certainly things have changed in the last 20 years in voters' perceptions whether women can do the job. But there's still an inherent nervousness on the part of voters to put women in as the ultimate decision-maker. Control of the National Guard and border security, those sorts of traditionally male jobs ââ?¬â? that's where I think voters consciously or unconsciously have difficulties with women candidates.

Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates.
|
It was important for us to be as supportive as our candidates and as our incumbent senators would have us be.
|
Each party steals so many articles of faith from the other, and the candidates spend so much time making each other's speeches, that by the time election day is past there is nothing much to do save turn the sitting rascals out and let a new gang in.

Following publication of an advertisement of a 'Barbacue & Ice' at Beauchamp's Springs, at which congressional candidates were to speak, the e...

When the political columnists say 'Every thinking man' they mean themselves, and when candidates appeal to 'Every intelligent voter' they mean everybody who is going to vote for them.

It's healthy in a democracy to have several candidates in a primary. We're promoting democracy abroad, and we should be practicing it here.
|
There were so many candidates on the platform that there were not enough promises to go around.
|
We've spent the entire year going back and forth on that question and hearing from people, what they thought, people passionate on one side and another, and have only in the last couple of days made that decision. Which we certainly won't share with you because it would be no fun ... but we have passionate advocates for both candidates in the writers' room and in the producing group, and it's been quite the brawl we've had.

If God had wanted us to vote, he would have given us candidates.
|
Just two candidates have asked my opinion about whether they should run for president or not, and I've advised both of them to become candidates, and he's one of them,
|
All the other candidates are making speeches about how much they have done for their country, which is ridiculous. I haven't done anything yet, and I think it's just common sense to send me to Washington and make me do my share.
