| Ron paul vs Obama...now THAT would be an election!!!! Or a Paul-Obama ticket?! |
No! That would be horrible. Poor pasty weak shouldered Mr. Paul would get ZERO female or minority vote. Chicks are shallow- they like power suit hotties. Minorites don't exactly want white guy #34324632746376 to have a say in their lives. Ron Paul would lose and the country would be much worse 4 it.
I would like Ron Paul to run against Hilary Clinton, or Satan, so that he'd actually win. |

It seems that others on the board who look for choices beyond the 3 anointed ones for each of the 2 largest parties have called a good candidate to your attention. That's one of the great things about the greater access to ideas and info that is possible with a little work on the Internet.
If all we had was the MSM to tell us who we are allowed to support and what opinions we are allowed to consider, then, of course, virtually no one else would have ever heard of Ron Paul either. But anyone who has seriously read the anti-war, anti-imperial critique for the past 4 or 5 years would be hard pressed to have accidentally missed Congressman Paul be they anti-war liberals or anti-war conservatives. The thing that can unite both sides behind a candidate is having an intelligent anti-war, anti-imperial foreign policy.
Please be assured, they will come looking for Congressman Paul with their long knives drawn because he truly challenges the K Street status quo and their war- and armaments-fueled wealth.
Oh, by the way, Congressman Paul won that debate with 30% out of a field of 10(?) candidates. Somehow, that didn't make any newspaper headlines that I know of. Certainly doesn't seem to have put him on your radar screen. 
---------------------------------------------
After the debate, on Fox News' "Hannity and Colmes," came one of those delicious moments on live television. As Michael Steele, GOP spokesman, was saying that Paul should probably be cut out of future debates, the running tally of votes by Fox News viewers was showing Ron Paul, with 30 percent, the winner of the debate.

Ha! So predictable. Why are you so down on the ladies? just how badly were you burned?
Perhaps you can lay off the ladies for a while and follow the good old Arabic credo:
Women are for babies...MEN ARE FOR FUN. |

Well, women just seem kinda ditzy and simple to me, generally. There are exceptions, but Im sort of down on anyone who makes shopping, clothes, brand labels, etc a priority in life. |

You do know the meaning of sleaze ball, right? You might want to do some reading on the handling of 9/11 beyond the cameras, Kerik, etc....
As for Ron Paul, he and Kucinich are like identical twins separated at birth. How about a Kucinich/Paul ticket? |

Representative Paul thanks for coming today.
Mr Buchanan thank you also for attending.
First question either of you are free to answer.
Does Al Qaeda fight for the Caliphate?
Oh by the way. Here is an explanation for Paul's 30%

Stacking Internet Polls
Wednesday, May 16, 2007 3:49 PM
You may or may not know this: The sites that take votes for polls attempt to prevent one person from running up the numbers by looking at your IP address, which to make a very long lecture short, is a unique number assigned to each PC. However, most people don�t understand how IP addresses work and that often they are not fixed at all, by using DHCP. I understand this stuff for professional reasons. All they had to do was go to a campus or someplace with a large computer lab to get around the IP blocker on the internet polling. The polling sites won�t block the routers or gateways at college campuses or any other place with a large network because it defeats the purpose of even putting up the poll by blocking millions of people. And the little programs or macros that they have running which filter out duplicates don't work because more times than not all they have is the IP of the router or gateway. So they are stuck in a paradox so to speak. Close off campuses and large networks from polling, or stop polling�. OR do what they do now and just leave it alone.
This is how they stack internet polls, or at least one of the easy ways. That, and a few people on the phones, can work wonders if they are persistent and have the right numbers to call.
Update 5/16/07 3:23pm CST:
I want to add that Democrats can vote in internet polls too. This could also explain the support for Ron Paul. And, some polling software use the cookies stored by your browser to see if you've voted or not. All they had to do was delete. Thanks to The Cajun Maverick for reminding me.

Ron Paul is the man. I'm so happy that he is having such a strong influence.
Libertarians have been worshiping this man for many years. |

After your tens of thousands of posts and millions of words posted, one would think you might finally get the posting customs correct, Mr. Joo. For example, the custom is to provide a link to the article being posted. Don't worry. I'm sure no on will think any less of your post than they already do if it comes from "freerepublic" or "little green footballs."   |
