Soap- there were more than two choices last time- Ron Paul was also on the ballot here in MT- in other states Chuck Baldwin was the "Constitutional Party" candidate. and where did anyone ever get the idea I wasn't going to vote?????? I will most definatly vote- it just may or may not be for one of the 2/1 party candidates. if they are both liberals where is the choice in that? You mentioned mccain- would he have taken us towards socialism/collectivism or towards personal Liberty? He would have taken us the same direction as obama, just a lesser speed. Yes that is better but it is NOT good- it is only good in that it is slower.
So ask yourself if ___________ is elected are they going to take us toward personal Liberty or more collectivism? The only one that stands out from the crowd that I can see so far is Ron Paul. Is he a perfect person. No. Is he a good man- I say yes from what I have seen. ( Now before Tam jumps in here with allegations of racism etc. He does not stand for that- he renounces those newsletters- claims he never believed that way.- claims not to believe that way now. Even if he did before I know my mind has changed in the last 22 years- so can anyones- even if he believed it before he can repent and renounce it now and all should be forgiven.) What we don't see is guys like romney say romney care was a mistake- obama care is unconstitutional etc. Lets say romney become one of the "two" choices- How can I vote for him and then complain about obamacare? How can I pray for God to remove the heavy hand of obamacare from our land when I just voted to perserve it?
I think McCain would have been worse than Obama- because I'm convinced we would have us tied into another major war and more nationbuilding..
LIKE OBAMA HASN'T ? .He was a Bush #3...
If I hadn't of been convinced it was so important that we needed to do everything to end the Bush reign I would have voted for Paul again in 08- I did before- and supported him in those joke primary caucus's Montana tried...
Can't stand Baldwin- as he is too tied to the white supremacist movement- wanting to build an all white state within a state in NW Montana.. The only reason he moved there from Florida last year.
.
. OK, BS ON THAT ONE, BRING SOME FACTS TO SUPPORT THAT CLAIM
Besides Paul- so far I like what I see of Gary Johnson.... If Paul doesn't get the Repub nomination- I would love to see a Paul/Johnson Libertarian ticket..
