Fandango is the host of his Provocative Questions and asks: “Do you think America is ready for an openly gay person to be elected to the office of President of the United States?

#FPQ 20 Hit me baby one more time
Fandango provokes us into thinking once again with his provocative question of: “Does hardship really make a person stronger? If you think so, under what conditions and at what point is it too much hardship? If you don’t buy that hardship makes a person stronger, what do you think does make a person stronger?”…
#FPQ 19 — Fate, Predestination, and God
Is it just me, or do Fandango’s Provocative Questions seem to be getting more difficult? Fandango asks: “Do you believe in fate and/or predestination? If so, what or who is the source?

Fandango’s question of the day is easier than others he’s asked. “Should tax payers have the option to explicitly say what they don’t want their tax dollars spent on?” What do you think? What areas, if any, would you wish to exclude your tax dollars from paying for? Fandango, I think representative government as we…
#FPQ #15 — Confident Stupid vs Doubting Intelligence?
Fandango has picked a doozy of a provocative question this week. Fandango says: This week’s provocative question is based upon a quote by Bertrand Russell, the British philosopher, logician, mathematician, historian, writer, essayist, social critic, political activist, and Nobel laureate. Whew, that’s a lot of cred. Anyway, Russell, who died in 1970, suggested that… “The fundamental…
