1. Well, at least it is an American corporation. |

I don't think any of us are in any position to be knocking American corporations. And if we are, then maybe we've found one of the reasons that things aren't going so peachy for everyone.

5. Anyone with relatives from Bhopal has a right to knock Union Carbide |
|
And I'm sure there are plenty of other examples.

6. To my knowledge, Xerox has never had a Bhopal incident, |

so your comments are a bit puzzling. When you study the background of the Xerox founder, Chester Carlson, you'll begin to understand why the company stands out.

2. Dang! There go my plans. |

Oh well, it wouldn't have worked anyway. Everybody hates me.

4. Does she owe royalties to the corporation for using its name? |
|
It is a copyright after all.

10. I saw a bunch of threads about Xerox |
|
I figured that Xerox machines must have some relevance as to whether or not not someone would be a decent President.
Surely people wouldn't drone on and on about crap that doesn't really matter would they?

...who was born in the United States and lived here for more than 14 years is qualified to be president.
Did they change the Constitution last night while I was sleeping?

9. I had to think whether the 14 years qualification was pointless |
|
then realized that someone over 35 could live abroad long enough that they had not lived in the US for 14 or more years. I wonder if that 14 years must be the last 14 years or any combination of living in the US.
