| Whatever you think is more fitting to the dream.
Seriously, though, I died in my dream. That is not healthy. The worst part is that this isn't the first time I've been killed in a dream.
Oh, and yeah, go Democrats....

| You know, there's one school of thought which holds that if you die in a dream, you die for real... |

| Which school of thought is that?
Dream analysis typically sees death in a dream as a rebirth.

| This poll is biased. It obviously favors the Republican choice throught the primacy effect.

I remember several dreams where I was killed. The first time, it upset me, and I started to avoid the place where, in my dream, it happened.
A couple years later, I had a repeat of the dream, and took control and killed the bad guy instead.
This new realization that one can control what's happening in a dream opened up a whole new level of enjoyment for my dreams. Now my dreaming self often tries out multiple alternatives to see what works best. Whoops, got killed, do-over! Nope, that won't work, do-over!
Solved a few sticky real-life problems in my dreams this way. But mostly it just makes for entertaining action.

As I am falling asleep I can kind of control what I am going to first dream about but that as far as it goes. |

Your consciousness actually ceased, or you "died" in dream terms, ie you just realized that you were dead but still kept dreaming/perceiving/acting?
I've been dream-"killed", too. And was still in the dream, talking, walking, etc. Not the same thing. |

| Other. On social issues definitely democrat (I'm gay.) On gun rights and states rights though, I lean right. Shame more democrats can't be gun lovers who like gay rights and low taxes. Sigh.

Sigh.  | I think, if I were you, I'd go with the party that doesnt want to send you to damnation instead of the one that lets the hate crime dudes carry guns and riles them up to go git ya! |
