A. The United States presidential election of 1852 was in many ways a replay of the election of 1844. Once again, the incumbent President was a Whig who had succeeded to the presidency upon the death of his war hero predecessor; in this case, it was Millard Fillmore who followed General Zachary Taylor. The Whig party passed over the incumbent for nomination casting aside Fillmore in favor of General Winfield Scott. The Democrats nominated a "dark horse" candidate, this time Franklin Pierce. The Whigs again campaigned on the obscurity of the Democratic candidate, and once again this strategy failed. Pierce and running mate William King would go on to win what was at the time one of the nation's largest electoral victories, trouncing Scott… [cont.]

My employer issues paychecks on payday that can't be cashed for several days. Is this legal?
Q. I work in a tourist town and during slow times my employer issues paychecks that if cashed that day will bounce due to insignificant funds. It's usually only a day or so that you can't cash your check. Is this in anyway illegal? Maybe knowing that a check you've written will bounce or some kind of contractual violation in that we agreed upon a schedule date to be paid.

A. Writing a check with knowledge that there are not sufficient funds to cover it is illegal. It is also potentially a breech of your contract, if you agreed to a certain pay date and he in effect isn't paying you until after that date. You might want to ask him to give you money orders, because if this business goes under, your last pay is going to be nothing but a worthless piece of paper.

A. First it a money drain on the schools to add ESL to their programs, it a wrong to add this to train illegals that are not paying taxes to start with. Think it be hard to find what on each ballot of each state at this time. unless you want to go to each state, i would think they may not know yet either.
