This belongs in ED.
I said Hillary, but would be happy with either candidate. Their platforms are nearly identical.
I said Hillary, but just for laughs.
I voted other because I don't like any of them very much.
If I had to choose, I'd probably go with Obama.
Same.Quote:

The other three choices in my opinion will say anything to win, they don't truly care about you, or me...They claim they do care but I've yet to see ACTION taken that backs up their rhetoric.
If not Ron Paul, another choice would be Bob Barr or Ralph Nader, or Mike Gravel
but other then these 4 guys, I would not vote for ANY other candidate reguardless of what they do or say because they are just a bunch of oppurtunistic liars Obama, Mccain, and Clinton.
Now I do not want to start any candidate bashing so please just accept my opinion as I accept yours, I respect all of your choices even though I entirely disagree with every single thing the other 3 candidates say, but I'm going to stick to my guns and realise everyone has their own opinion, even if its a bad choice.
Thats smart :roll:Quote:

anyways, I'm just pissed as to why americans continually keep voting for the lesser of 2 dickheads and not the constitutional party, or the libertarian party, the green party....etc
vote for independents, libertarians sheesh people its not just 2 choices red or blue.
You know all men in all governments outside of America then? Or are you just talking about the obvious selections, I think you are.Quote:

So it seems too much of an assumption to make the sweeping statement about all nations.
why is Ron Paul always missed off
It's not my country
and to be honest, I don't really care that much for the internal bits of American politics
but it seems like he's got a far better handle on international relations than any of the other candidates
Is this some sort of US media snubbing thing - don't mention him, and no-one will vote for him cause they've never heard of him?
Just interested
You have a good point but, I'm sure if corruption and lies exist in a democracy, they can exist in MANY other governments.Quote:

A number of them are educated in international policy, history, economics, etc., and realize that we need an intelligent leader to help turn this nation around rather than "good speakers" (the number one reason I have heard people say they support Obama) who promise handouts to further the US's decline into socialism, stupidity, and bad foreign policy. Ugh not to mention I like my civil liberties and would like to keep them.Quote:

The Mainstream Media has very close ties to government.
The Government views paul as a threat to what they stand for.
Do the math
Well obviously. I don't know of any definitive proof so I don't like making blanket statements, but that is the gist of what I was saying.Quote:

Just more propaganda to discredit him. I wouldn't have a problem if they treated him with the same respect as other candidates. Then I wouldn't mind that he is losing, because I never expected him to win. But to just ignore him or slander him, when he is a congressman, a Republican, and a legitimate candidate is disgusting and shows the amount of true corruption.
I'm voting for Ron Paul.
I voted Barack.
i said obama. haha hes winning even on dream views!!
