WinCrimson 61 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 A big WTF goes out to the following: - Clinton, Giuliani, Edwards, & Obama for wanting to read books - Dodd for wanting a cup of joe - Brownback for the foolish reason of wanting tarp - And, Huckabee, for wanting to surf the web The AP asked the presidential candidates what item each would "most like to have if he were stranded on a desert island."Democrats: Sen. Joe Biden: "Jill, my wife." Sen. Hillary Clinton: "A good book." Sen. Chris Dodd: "Coffee with cream and sugar." John Edwards: "A book." Rep. Dennis Kucinich: His wife, Elizabeth. Sen. Barack Obama: "Other than my wife and my kids, an inanimate object I would have to have would probably be a good book." Gov. Bill Richardson: "Blackberry and a Davidoff cigar." Republicans: Sen. Sam Brownback: "Tarp." Rudy Giuliani: "Books and music." Mike Huckabee: "Laptop with satellite reception." Rep. Duncan Hunter: "Mrs. Hunter." Sen. John McCain: "Books." Mitt Romney: "My wife, Ann." Rep. Tom Tancredo: "Boat." Also, the candidates were asked about their "dream job." The only person to answer "The President of the United States" was Tancredo. Everybody else needs to wake up, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterinbham 0 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Well, it was a frivolous question, and they all gave frivolous answers. Even Tancredo's answer was pretty frivolous if you think about it. Personally, I would have answered "A Wal Mart." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUJarhead 72 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Wasn't it this past year during one of the AU football games, where they would show an interview with one of the current players, and ask them questions like this? I don't remember which player was being interviewed, but they asked him the same question (what would you like to have if stranded on a desert island) and he answered "A Satellite Phone."

You ever think Huckabee might have wanted to use the laptop to communicate his predicament to the outside world and get rescued, Skip? What was wrong with Brownback's answer? He's thinking survival. Perhaps he understood the question to mean he had no chance of being rescued. Do us all a favor and stop posting in the grown up forum. Thanks.

Guest Tigrinum Major Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I was referring to Tancredo's answer. I know you were giving him props. My point was, if you have a boat, you aren't stranded, so therefore you are avoiding the question. That would be like me asking, "If you were going to die from cancer, what is the one thing you'd want to make your remaining days better?" and the answer was, "A cure for cancer." The question was poorly worded. It should have indicated that you have no chance to be rescued and that you could only have items that would make your life comfortable. In that vein, Huckabee's answer would have fallen along the same lines as Tancredo's based on my scenario. Or, he could have wanted to surf the internet. It was a stupid question and if someone is basing their vote on these answers (not intimating that you are, just people in general), then the nation is in a world of hurt. Sorry you felt like I was picking on you. Even though I really was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
