Why dont you worry about Parliament instead of the State of Illinois political elections.

Its because the Limey government would fall apart if they didnt have the US to back them!!

Im voting for Adam!!!!!!!!!!!

delphiandomine:

Shame on the other candidates for not picking up on it and running with it. Maybe our politicans in both Poland and the UK are just much more on the ball ;)

You wouldnt have Politicians if it wernt for the US.

All you would be able to do is say, yes Sir! to the German or Russian regime.

You guys really do believe your own hype, don't you? :)

Funny how the UK managed to defeat Argentina in the Falklands War without your help...but hey, the great America can't even win in Afghanistan ;)

Really? Typical ill-educated American view of the world, then :)

(If you knew anything about history, you'd be well aware that the Germans and Russians would have annilihated each other and left Britain well placed to walk into Moscow and Berlin...)

delphiandomine:

How common is floor-crossing in America?

It's fairly big news when a sitting politician switches sides, but it happens quite a bit due to there being social conservatives who are fiscally liberal vice versa. Within families it's very very common to have different political opinions, sometimes it makes for animated family gatherings.

The UK owns 130b in direct US debt. The US owns 377b of UK debt. With those kinds of cross investments, it's a good idea to keep an eye on the political climate of the two countries...

Thats fine, but theres no need to keep slamming the guy on every little thing he can find.

I think we get the drift that he doesnt like the candidate already.

He can keep blabbing all he wants yet come Tuesday,,,,, he still cant vote...lol

Andrzejewski is manipulating the people while at the same time pretending that he's an honest guy. He's not, and some voters in Illinois seem to be too naive to notice that. :)

Have you seen the other choices we have for candidates?

Id rather take a chance with this guy than put one of the same old crooks back in office.

I seen his concerns, some questions are valid. Making a big deal if he can speak Polish or not isnt going to make a difference to anybody in Illinois.

Proft would be the only other candidate worth consideration.

Would you like me to vote for Pat Quinn or Hynes, I suppose???

To Helen,

We're all aware of the fact there are Poles all around but if you know what's happening in Illinois, we are in much debt and in this primary election, we either have a choice of 5 insider candidates or one outsider. That outsider is Adam Andrzejewski and I am not promoting him only because of his Polish heritage but his brilliant and unique policies he would implement here.

To The Other,

If you think the other candidates are so much better than I don't know what to say to you.

I don't know whether the other candidates are better or not, and to be honest, I don't even care. The only thing that caught my attention after you started posting so enthusiastically about Adam Andrzejewski is, that this guy pretends to be the good and honest one, but in reality he's pulling some really cheap tricks. If manipulating people so openly and thinking so low about one's voters equals honesty, then our politicians are far worse than I thought. My personal opinion, of course.

Cheap tricks? Please explain... because several people on here know just like all of his supporters that he's honest. He doesn't owe any favors, unlike other candidates.

Look, I don't really know why you're wasting your time with him. He's Austrailian, he lives in California.. he never and I mean never has the least positive thing to say about the US. Yet, curiously doesn't want to move. According to him the US is full of ghettos and is poverty stricken.. and crawling with neo cons yet he's going to brave it out to help us " see the light" apparently.

This is absolutely typical of some two-bit limey, Canandian or Austrailian. It's comical on one end pathetic on the other. You're talking about a people who STILL have a queen admonishing another country about inequities? I mean.. a queen? A multi millionaire already that they still throw even more tax payer money at. Think about that. And yet we're backwards?

I understand, it's just if someone wants to question the integrity of someone they don't even know well enough, than it needs some explanation!

delphiandomine:

And I'm sorry - but how can you take a candidate seriously who claims to be Polish, yet can't even order a beer in his language?

This explains quite a lot; thank you.

delphiandomine:

Well, if you believe that an unexperienced politician who is preaching the same old Republican words can lead Illinois out of difficulty, combined with a hostile legislature - well...you deserve all you get.

You haven't explained the fact that he hardly comes from a long line of Republicans, nor have you explained why he didn't visit Poland (despite claiming to be Polish) until he was 40.

Integrity? Andrzejewski certainly doesn't have any!

I'm more ashamed by Walesa though - Adam's just playing politics, but Walesa really needs to stop disgracing his legacy.

I really don't think he understands that Andrzejewski has been paying people to endorse him. Maybe it's because he's so completely brainwashed, or more accurately, he's trying to become one of his hangers on if he gets elected - whatever.

Okay, I'll explain it in the simplest language I can possibly use.

Lech Walesa does not do anything for free.

Do you understand, or do I have to find a way to explain it in even simpler language? I know American English has a reputation of being easy to learn, but still!

You are from another country and no one cares what you think. Adam is the only candidate in the race that owes no favors to anyone and has never lied on his campaign trail. You just like to pick on him because you think you know everything going on in Illinois.

Andrzejewski is a nice man; a smart man, and a moral man. That disqualifies him in Illinois.
Dillard is the favorite to win and now that his father just died he will probably receive a boost from sympathy voters. Of course I am hoping that Andrzejewski or Proft can pull it out but they are being outspent in tv ads by McKenna and Dillard. I've had dealings with both and even they would be a big improvement to what the Democrats have to offer which is higher taxes, bigger government and more pension money to the teachers unions among others.

Andrzejewski is ambitious and I see him as a future political threat. I'd like to see him run for the U.S. senate next time around.

Why don't you just answer the questions rather than ducking them? Insulting me isn't going to prove anything!

AdamForIllinois:

Adam is the only candidate in the race that owes no favors to anyone and has never lied on his campaign trail.

Has he openly told people that "Yes, my father is a Democrat and yes, I never went to Poland until I was 40 and I don't even know how to say "jedno piwo" in Polish"? Naah...course not. Did he admit that he was paying Walesa, and paying Walesa well? Nope.

AdamForIllinois:

You just like to pick on him because you think you know everything going on in Illinois.

Actually, I like to pick on him because he's got a very foolish volunteer working for him who appears to be doing damage than good. The same volunteer still won't answer some very basic questions and is instead relying on abusing potential voters, which isn't very clever.

ZIMMY:

If he doesn't lose heart, I could see him being seen as a maverick senator one day. He's clearly not very wise about the world, but since when has that meant anything in American politics?

What surprises me is that someone as well-informed as Andrzejewski is - he's very very conservative on social issues. It's a shame, because from the sounds of things, Illinois needs a governor who can get things done and who isn't afraid to destroy his own popularity for the sake of doing the right thing.

Anyone know how Polish-Americans tend to vote? I would assume Republican, but...

In the farther suburbs Polish Americans do vote Republican but not by a large margin. In Cook County (Chicago), they unfortunately, like the Irish, Italians, Mexicans, Blacks, and Greenland Inuits vote Democrat.

Even most of the Pol-Am leadership in the city decided not to support Adam because they too are 'bought' by the Democratic powers. You know, those corrupt Democrat bosses that hoisted Obama to prominence?

The only nail that was hit on the head was yours. And I feel sorry for your delusional self. Oh, and we can argue anything you want. You're more or less anti-american yet continue to live here.. and profit from it.. no doubt. Anyone who contradicts anything you say immediately is branded by you as some kind of Jim Crow Neocon or something. Of course, your zip code is no where near any ghetto probably but hey we're all Klansmen in denial. That is your own sad style of rebuttal, Other.. it's that all you have. Wow, attacking a campaign worker from another state.. a state you know next to nothing about I'd wager. Let us all bow down to your island commonwealth intellect.
