Phil Angelides, my MySpace friend

California's far-left, in-the-pocket-of-the-unions, only-slightly-worse-than-Arnold gubanatorial candidate has a MySpace page: myspace.com/angelides. The AP says that he had nothing to do with creating that page:

But rather than kill a volunteer's unauthorized efforts, the campaign has embraced the youth-heavy site, using Angelides' personal profile page to post position papers and other announcements. It also scans the comments section to gauge what's on youths' minds, turning it into an informal focus group.

I don't know who really runs the page, but whoever it is has apparently decided not to approve a comment I left there, even after I took the time to add Phil as my first real friend to my never-used account at that service. Here's the comment I tried to post; if someone can ask him this or a related question at a campaign appearance that might be interesting:

I have an (easy) math question for Phil Angelides.

Let's say California only has 1000 discounted college educations, but 2000 applicants for those discounts.

Let's say 900 of those discounts go to U.S. citizens, but 100 of those discounts go to citizens of other countries who are here illegally.

Phil, doesn't that mean that 100 U.S. citizens will not receive education discounts? Doesn't that mean that many of those U.S. citizens won't be able to go to college?

Phil, why do you support taking discounted college educations away from U.S. citizens and giving them to citizens of other countries who are here illegally?
