He may be our best hope, although my own preference is for Dr. Mary Ruwart. Paul for president and Ruwart for vice-president would be heaven!

This is something that's puzzled me about the election. We have a ton of candidates with Hilary, Obama, and Giuliani getting the most media attention. Believe it or not, there are people out there that don't agree with any of them and instead agree with someone like Mike Gravel or Ron Paul. However, some supporters of these two say "Yeah, I'd like to vote for them but they'll never win".

Don't you realize that they'll never win because people like you say they'll never win, or believe that your vote doesn't count in the long run? Isn't staying true to yourself and voting honestly a good thing?

They won't win because of people like you who cause them not to.

example: I'm realistic and know that Ron Paul very likely won't win. He doesn't have enough money or celebrity endorsements, and as Bill Maher said, "If this country were smart, wouldn't you be voted into office?" But I'm not going to vote for someone I don't like because of it.

Do we really want anybody who is or has been into drugs making critical decisions for us. Do we really want someone who admits to his drug abuse such as Obama did in his book to have his finger on the nuclear button. How do we know that he did quit doping? We have to take his word are you willing to gamble I mean look what happened to us when we elected George Bush do you want more of the stammering and stuttering and blank lost looks I think not so lets say no to any candidate who has or is using drugs dont you think this would be in the best interest of our country?

They both seem to be quite good.

When republican's are in office they take care of wealthy business, and they are expected to trickle on the rest of Americans. Bush's time in office is one of the best examples of that.
I'm not going to say Democrats are perfect, but during the Clinton years, life was so much more fair, for everyone.
I'm sure you can guess how I'll be voting in 08.

Its happened again, Why can a MP change parties without a bye election.
As he is voted in by a majority, for a particular Party, surely that majority don't all suddenly agree that he/she should change sides.

and from recent polls that george bush is more popular than members of congress. Before the election democrats told us all they would do all this within 100 days in congress its 110 days now. They praise themselves of their future promises that they cant keep they are still divided about iraq and they cant make a plan to secure our border. Now the presidential elections is just around the corner you got all this promising democrat candidates who are part of this new congress who cant get anything done. Which by the way they were on vacation when a crucial vote for our troops took place. Is america gonna make the same mistake twice in 2 yrs by going democrats?

I am trying to find out which candidate I should do more research on. I was hoping if I shared my views if someone who is more politically aware could suggest my perfect president. I am looking for someone to provide Americans with better, more affordable healthcare, I am pro-choice, I am against the War, I feel the immigrants who are here should be allowed to stay, and I want someone who will work to prevent global warming.

Please don't tell me to change my views. Who do you think is best for me?

Thanks!

I know what the constitution says but Bush has set a precident for playing fast and loose with what our founding fathers put down, so why not?

Any young man in America today, that supports Hillary.
Is either a complete moron, or has been paid to support her.

My brother-in-law supports her.

He said, "What immigration bill" ?

Save for representative Ron Paul, do you believe that the other presidential candidates are motivated by the Almighty $$$$ & power for social status sake? I mean with all the $social$issues$, $pro$anti$issues$, $tobacco$tax$politicking$, $petroleum$tax$bilking$, $$$global$$$warming$$$tax$$$scheme$$$ & a host of other $tax$schemes$, is it possibly that the $repubie$demo$party$ has been bought off for what ever reasons? Has ANYONE ever thought that corruption in THE party is rampant? I can understand "addiction" to a chemical regarding people in general, BUT, an "addiction" to a group of politicians(magicians!)??? I mean these "magicians" have this country split & folks at each others throats. Anybody else noticing the above mentioned seems to be proliferating with in THE party?

At least 3 times this week, Hillary did all of the above during speeches. She also said we need a woman in the white house because there's cleaning up to do. Can you imagine if a male candidate had said that?

I watched some of the democratic debate where they went to an intentionally segregated audience and argued about who was doing more to help people of that race. I don't see anything wrong with that, as long as they treat all races equally.

The race they talked about at the debate was blacks. When are they going to talk about all the important issues affecting whites and argue about who has done more to help and who cares more about white people?

The white vote is very important to the candidates, and I think it would be helpful if they filled a room with nothing but white people to talk about how they will help whites.

I do, because Gore will get the same support , maybe more on the issues Obama is running on. They are not my choice, but I got a feeling this is what is going to happen. Could be wrong.
