Sure. If I win, you will use an avatar of Elton John with a heart surrounding him. If you win, I will use an avatar of Mariah Carey with a horribly disfigured face from a beating.

You'll be the 51st state of the union, with good ol Dubya as your President.

Why do you think Americans keep rooting for Quebec to seceed?

Woo Hoo! Frechies on the border! We get to attack "France" and its not near as expensive to transport troops as it would be to send them over to the real France.

Eh, avatar to be determined. That's what makes it so much more fun.. The suspense of not knowing what picture might be used. Avatar must fit within forum rules.

2 weeks of wearing the avatar, to be determined after the general election.

I must admit I don't really understand why you would want to stop the intolerable occupation of glorious Québec by the Anglo forces, only for you Anglos to re-attack it just after the liberation.

With any luck, France will defend its province and nuke the crap out of the Anglos. At last we'll avenge Jeanne!

I could live with Preston. He's a really great guy, he shops at the Chapters by my house and has a coffee at the Starbucks inside it every Saturday when he's in town. Met him a few times.

Eh? This is the first I've heard of that.

It's not in the States' best interests to have Quebec as an independent country.

Lincoln had major impact on US, that's for sure.

Now, his only goal was to maintain the Union. I do recognize this as a merit. But I don't see how it makes him one of the "greatest" president.
As it was pointed out, he didn't care that much about slavery, and if it could keep the Union together, he would not have abolished it.

He seems to me as quite an opportunistic. I have some respect for him, but no more.

While subject to revisionism and reverential treatment, Abe Lincoln was one of the good ones.

Damn, we need his calibre of leader today.

Ugh, I wouldn't want the States to absorb Quebec if that's what you mean. I'd prefer Canada to deal with those guys instead of the States. Americans don't need that kind of political and social headache.

It isn't. There are other provinces besides Quebec. Alberta is quite rich in oil.

In that case if citizens of those provinces truly want to join and can agree to the American system, that's fine. But not Quebec.
