King of Glass - The conversation on this page, when it actually happens (which is rare), is always much friendlier (& more respectful) when politics are left out of it. For what impact or result are you initiating this thread?
And someone told me too that it's true when you call aloud - It's only destiny or is it mystery (?)

I am not a gambling man, so I am NOT taking you up on your bet, but I think he might be impeached, but will not be convicted or removed. Impeaching is just bring the case to the Senate for a trial. Then the Senate hears the case and votes to convict. 2/3's vote is required to convict. That is what happened to Bill Clinton.
As far as the 2020 election goes, I think it will depend on how the economy is doing a year from now. If the economy is still doing well, I think he has a shot at re-election, if we are in a recession, he will be in trouble.
In reference to the title song, Political Poachers was not one of my favorite songs from Harbor. In fact I thought it was a weak album for Dewey. He only contributed 3 songs and I really did not care for 2 of them (Political Poachers and Are You There).

Thanks for clarifying your point, John Boy, for us readers who didn’t understand what you were pointing at! I, personally liked, and understood, the point that InnerCulture was alluding to! Hope I could shed some light for you, it’s really dark around here.DanC

A very interesting & diverse set of emerging opinions here on Harbor . . . "Are You There" happens to be one of my all-time fave Dewey Bunnell songs. Political Poachers I also like, especially for its electric sitar.
I am not going to wade into any political debate here, as it is likely to evoke unintended negative feelings (having seen it happen here before.)

I have always liked most of Harbor. Don’t Cry Baby, Political Poachers, Sarah, Are You There, Monster and Sargeant Darkness ( which I always loved and thought it was Gerry’s answer to some of Dewey’s visual lyric tunes) I believe rank up there with some of the best!DanC

I fully agree, DannyC - Sargeant Darkness is a wonderful song, indeed one of my favorite Gerry Beckley tunes. The whole Harbor album flows masterfully, very smoothly interweaving even what I consider to be (in my humble opinion) the weaker tracks, Hurricane & Down to the Water . . .

King_of_Glass - Just to clarify: Are you mentioning this to show us what a nice person you are? Or, do you have another target impact in mind?
I genuinely admire your dedication to All things America on this board. On the other hand, I doubt you will get much response on your politically-themed bets / references, as these tend to cut very deep. In other words, they trigger uncomfortable / negative feelings for some of us. Especially now.

Have always lived in the same town where I was born which is in Southeast New Mexico. Well, most of me; part of me was born in Texas. Like the small town life which is the population of only about 38,000. My siblings and I were all raised in this New Mexico town; however, I was the only one born where we all grew up. They all live in larger cities: Albuquerque, Dallas and NYC. Attended college in the same state. Have a bachelor degree in Business Administration. Also attended X-ray Technology school, therefore, have worked as a registered x-ray tech for a number of years. Spent the first 18 years of my employment with Texaco Exploration as an accounting employee. Looking forward to retirement in about 1.5 years! Although being Asian, I have never been to the Orient but have been to a number of countries in Europe as odd as that is. The hospital where I was born is now a senior citizen home. Sure hope I don't have to return there and be told, "This is the room where you were born. Welcome back. Hope you enjoy your old room/new home!" "Hey, nurse, I remember I x-rayed you when you were born." "Pipe down, eat your oatmeal."
