How can you get the opponent to become a hero in Battlefront 2?
Q. I don't know hwy, but the Computer controlled opponent doesn't want to be a Hero of the map I play on. I know they do that on Xbox, but for some reason, it won't work on PS2.

A. You could play a field and let the other team rack up points until one of them gets enough to go hero. usually this works so good luck.

In a US Political election why is it necessary for the opponent to concede?
Q. In the case of Al Franken and his opponent in the senate race in Minnesota, there was talk about how the race dragged on for several months because the incumbent refused to concede. Why does that even impact upon the election? Should it not be based upon the official governing body that monitors the election declaring a winner based upon the vote If the Al Franken/GOP incumbent (sorry I don't remember his name) is different due to the recount, could that be part of your answer. Thanks!

A. For the most part, the call conceding the election is done out of courtesy and "bringing the country together." In the case of Franken and Coleman, Coleman would not stop with the lawsuits trying to keep the recount going. His concession was designed to get across he will not fight it anymore, and that the Minnesota state government can go ahead and certify the results.

If one candidate is better than their opponent are they justified in doing and saying ANYTHING to win?
Q. By "better" I mean one candidate thinks they will be superior to their opponent in holding the office they are campaigning for. And thus if necessary they will use whatever means it takes to make sure the voters don't make the "mistake" of choosing their opponent. That includes lying, cheating, or any other underhanded tactics.
