I am honestly not trying to be funny....but do you think that looks have something to do with how popular a candidate is?  I was doing some research for a project and was asked this very question.  My findings were that people vote for who they find attractive.  Of course people have different views of what is attractive...but it is an interesting point.  Now back to Israel....

I´ve read studies that showed the same thing...a full head of hair and being taller counts too. It is unfortunate, really that we (humans) are so shallow. That is why marketing works so well. Have you seen Century of Self? It´s a good series. Informative indeed.

Torches of Freedom......ugh.....

Unfortunately this is why I am convinced we will never have politics in our country that makes sense!  I think Dennis Kucinich is just about the only politician who has said anything intelligent about the Israel situation...it is just unfortunate that his face looks like an old handbag.  Just not fair.
