Who else is writing in Ron Paul on the ballot?[views:5448][posts:77]____________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 10:49am - porphyria ""] ANYTHING Obama/Biden will do is better than what McCain/Palin will. |

Of course the goal wouldn't even be to teach them trades so that they can support themselves, but to create giant welfare states. He didn't vote for the war yet he's all for using taxpayers money to rebuild foreign nations like Iraq? Abortion is the last thing on my mind right now. My thoughts exactly. |
| ___________________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 10:52am - Mikeofdecrepitude ""] They're both corporate candidates who are two sides of the same coin. I see no difference between both because none of them have our best interests at hand. |

That's a much better way to stop terrorism than our idiotic invasion of Iraq. People become terrorists because they are fucking pissed off. If the ragheads had all the creature comforts and brain-deadening forms of entertainment that we have, they wouldn't be flying planes into buildings and blowing up shit. Better to spend the money on that than on making their lives worse therefore creating more terrorists. It's our constant meddling in other's affairs and exploitations of foreign nations that breeds the animosity against the west. I can't agree with this socialist idea of giving third world nations our money so that they don't "hate" us. They just want to funnel the money in and not actually create any social programs that would teach them trades for their overall benefit. Give a man a fish and he eats for a day; teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime. Look, i don't necessarily support it either, but the money is going over there regardless of who's in charge. Might as well do something better with it then we are now. And like anus.com said, we've been sending billions in foreign aid for years. This is nothing new. |

We are billions of dollars in debt, the value of our dollar is plummeting, and our economy is collapsing. How about we keep our own money. |

Good point, just wanted to chime in that while I don't support heaps of foreign aid (or much of any for that matter) most of that money goes directly to schools and public services, creating trades and educated people in the process. And at this point, if the government doesn't rebuild Iraq, that means more enemies for us. It'd be interesting to see what happens if we let the middle east manage itself, abandon all our military bases and aid projects. That includes the rooting out the neocon zionists in this government and cutting ties with Israel (yea I said it) |

Right now it's real cozy in Washington -- two big parties, lobbyists invest in them, everything moves along. Having a firebrand, either Paul or Kucinich, in the white house might cause some shakeup of that. I think the first myth we need to break down is that average people fit into either liberal or conservative camps "neatly." |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 1:14pm - Josh_Martin ""] Paul is a republican, kucinich is a democrat. excuse me if Im cynical. |
| ________________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 1:16pm - Conservationist ""] I don't blame anyone for being cynical. I think that's important is disruption of business as usual, and people who are more committed to ideology than convenience, but not so committed they become dogmatic, Soviet-types (something both Obama and the Neocons had in common: they want to bring glorious democracy to the world!). Having a third party candidate, especially one who says "I'm doing this because it's both right AND practical," would go a long way toward reforming American politics. That and suppress the votes of anyone under 120 IQ points ;) |

Ron paul will put in place judges that will overturn rowe v wade. that will cause the states and or counties to once again pass their own laws. since morals are geographically centralized, there will be huge collection of states (where the stupid people that you want to have abortions live). then 16 year old girls will have to travel 400+ miles across state lines to get to abortions. oh yeah, crossing state lines or helping someone cross state lines for an abortion would also be illegal. so go ahead, vote for a world full of unaborted incest and rape babies. the whole crossing state lines thing could have the positive affect of cutting back on teen pregnancies. thats a lot of work and youngters are more unmotivated than ever. and really, states rights aint a bad idea. who are we to push our new england culture and values on anyone else? |
