thanks to the informative youtube links of teamliquid. hes so honest about the shit, i dont know, im not that keen on politics, never been a fan of politics and if hillary was still running; id still vote for her just because i enjoyed clinton's reign, moreso than bushs'. that YT video though, wow, he got my heart, instantly. maybe its because hes great at speeches?

yeah i have to agree with you, politicians are liars, all they want are fame, and to do so, theyd have to do something "amazing" its because theyd HAVE to. whoever wins, i hope they pull this country(US) back up from a shithole.

what's so great about him? other than the fact that he's different? I don't particularly like any of his views, and it's not like he'd get anything done even if he were president because enacting changes THAT big is impossible with the way congress is currently made up

I voted for Ron Paul and wanted him to run even before he declared he was going to. I knew he wouldn't get most of his policies enacted, but he would have a direct influence on our foreign policy, which is the biggest reason I wanted him to win.

Yeah more or less. Most of his supporters don't realize all the ways they'll get screwed if Paul ever gets what he wants.

Raithed the fact that he's honest ostensibly is nice but not necessarily going to outweigh other factors.

ron paul is an idealist and a conspiracy theorist

I would vote for Barack Obama. Or Hillary. I cannot understand what is supposed to be so special about Ron Paul. Neither do the American people as he didn't have much success with his campaign?

Fragkrag, Quesadilla, AmorVincitOmnia,

Fuck you all for not respecting idealism. Idealism does not automatically entail ignorance, just imagination. You all must lack it and probably are depressed every day and make everyone feel bad as your only sorry excuse for existence ¬¬.

ps why have such a clearly idealistic sounding name like AmorVincitOmnia. Surely you realise love is only an ideal?

Even so, they may see his views as misguided idealism. If there is idealism to be pursued, it's not his.

well to be honest I don't think any president really offers much. Their administrations probably take care of most of their work, as do the major money holders in the country I reckon. At least Ron Paul is an interesting speaker . But then again, so was Nixon hah.

i'm not even going to touch your argument on idealism since it was just you assuming i'm depressed and something about a name i made when i was like 17 and in highschool.

so you want an imaginative and interesting speaker? too bad Al Sharpton didn't make it further in the race, he'd have been your man. and i for one would rather listen to Obama rabble on more than Ron Paul anyday.

Wait, why should we believe in idealism? Imagination? The product of his brand of imagination is withdrawal from the UN and NATO, gold standard, and free trade. lol, ok.

how can you possible choose a candidate based on your measure of his "honesty?" especially someone like ron paul. have you thought about what kind of impact his policies would have? like privatizing everything on earth? and immediate withdrawal from iraq?

One rationale is that typically candidates don't follow through on what they talk about anyways. In this case, you know what you're getting (or at least you hope.)
