Cynthia McKinney?

Way more people than that have lost in the general election (hundreds, if not thousands), including Cynthia McKinney in 2008 as the most successful black female loser, but plenty of other black women have lost the general election.

If a horse or cow breaks its leg, what's a less painful method? A properly-aimed bullet is instant and 100% painless. You gonna call a vet, wait half a day if you're lucky, and then hope they give chemicals quickly and correctly while the animal languishs in pain?

The US entirely eliminated screwworms within its border in a very similar fashion 60 years ago and then wiped them off the whole continent just for good measure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Olj8arvfYj4

If we actually directed effort at exterminating harmful mosquitos, they would be gone in a couple years.

Brazil borders France. (Amapá borders French Guiana.)

France borders Germany.

Germany borders Poland.

Poland borders Belarus and Ukraine.

Belarus and Ukraine each border Russia.

Russia borders North Korea.

Edit: Actually, Poland borders Russia directly. (Warmian-Masurian borders Kaliningrad.) So really it's only five!

I have my phone number on my personal website—never had any adverse consequences. In fact, the only two calls I've gotten have both been at my work number which isn't on there somehow. One to ask a genuine question and one to give me 30 bucks in appreciation.

 

"Power" (or "Potenz" or "puissance") is the most common claim, but potential, pondus, and percent are also common. When the original author designated it, he implied that it was just a random mathematical letter, akin to x, and that it didn't stand for anything, although from context one could argue it stood for potential?
