I suppose I could rephrase the question as:
Which candidate over the next four years is most likely to steer our economy towards long-term health?
I hope that satisfies you. |

That's right. Referring to the main election, that is. |

In principle, yes.
Agreed.
Ron Paul & Billary Klinton running in a dead heat.
Interestingly noone has to this point voted for anyone else.

Which is the one for "None of the above"?
Because no president can salvage this mess, not without a complete rebooting of American Society from the top on down. |

Hitler was hailed as the saviour for all the depressed world economy's woes 70 years ago.
Although it came at the cost of millions of lives, many still see him in the same light today.
In the lead-up to 9/11, perhaps seeing the writing on the wall, the neo-nazi PNAC cons thought they'd work to imitate one of their true inspirations.
WAR WAR & more WAR. |

My wife apparently thinks she can do it. Everybody just needs to turn over their paychecks to her, like I did, and then you'll never have to worry about anything ever again. 
Starting this month, much to her chagrin, I have opted out of that plan. We had a nice talk today about that. I didn't like it (the 'me giving all my money to you' plan), but on a national scale her policy might have worked.
I've yet to hear a less absurd plan from the nominees. (Please don't answer with RP's voodoo. He doesn't count)
