 Cartoon GuyWhat with all the different candidates running for President in the 2008 Election, unless you already have a favorite, how do you know who to vote for?

    why are you writing about a screenshot? its no screenshot. a screenshot is an image. i bet thousands of people filled out the form and were searching for a submit button.
