Who is your favorite presidential candidate regardless of party and why do you support that individual?

Question

Democrat, Republican, independent, Unity 08 perhaps, you decide and explain.

Answer 1

Bill Richardson makes the most sense to me. Why? Because I agree with his stated stand on many issues.

Answer 2

I would really like to see Rudy in, but it sure seems this Ron Paul would also make a great candidate. I hear he assigned Rudy a reading list about foreign policy, a becoming act.

If a voted for a Democrat, I would vote for Obama, as he really seems to be able to realize the results of our actions. Just look at the war in Iraq. He voted against it at the start, a gutsy move, and it didn't turn out well and I can respect that.

Answer 3

We have only one person in the race on either side that doesn’t lie, doesn’t vote our freedoms away, wants to stop undeclared war, believes in and supports the constitution and that person is Dr. Ron Paul. He is the only one in congress that deserves the title Honorable! He firmly opposes the march to empire, the North American Union the Federal Reserve and the IRS. These things have no constitutional right to exist!
We all need to support him and take our country back!
Note; voting for the Doctor is almost useless with out kicking the globalist CFR scumbags out! You know exactly who I am referring to here or if not look them up! Get educated as to who the enemies of this country are. Hint; it is all who voted for the patriot act and are trying to kill the first amendment and the second amendment as well. I am not giving any more info as you need to find out for your selves.
Stop being good little mushrooms! Come out of the dark!

Answer 4

Congressman Ron Paul from Texas. Ron Paul is the first candidate for any office that has gotten me excited in my life and I’m 54. Ron Paul believes in a Federal Government with limited powers as set forth in our Constitution. He is against intervention in foreign matters, the Federal Reserve (which is a private not a federal entity) and any and all agencies that were not envisioned by our forefathers who grafted the Constitution. It is well accepted that our Constitution guaranteed us the freedoms to pursue our dreams without the interference from bureaucrats and because of that we became the most powerful and wealthy nation the world has ever witnessed. The trend towards larger and larger government over the last fifty or more years has led to at first was a gradual and later a much accelerated decline in both our economy, the value of the dollar and our respect around the world. Ron Paul will bring us back to the constitutional republic we were designed to be. Will see to it that we no longer invade countries without provocation, reduce the size of the federal government and strengthen our economy through prudent economic practices.

Answer 5

Not really sure but I do know the ones that are Democrats are out. From what I heard not one of the Democrats were asked any hard questions.

Answer 6

I'm supporting former Senator Mike Gravel who is running for the Democratic nomination. I chose him for several reasons. Mainly because he tells the truth (which is exceedingly rare for a politician, especially one running for President) and every one of the ideas he suggests are well-thought-out, intelligent and rational. (And, he wants to get us the hell out of Iraq as soon as possible, so that we can begin diplomatic efforts to end the civil war.)

For an example of his ideas, he wants to get rid of the IRS and the Income Tax, and replace it with the Fair Tax, which is a national sales tax with a prebate so that poor people can register and get money back for the taxes spent on the essentials of life, meaning clothes, food, housing, etc. Our current tax code is so corrupted that there is not one person in all of Washington DC who knows and understands the totality of the tax code!! Its riddled with thousands of loopholes, exceptions, etc etc that various lawmakers have put in there at the request of lobbyists. All that would be wiped clean with the Fair Tax and it would be a very simple and transparent tax system. Not to mention much more profitable, since a national sales tax would collect taxes not only from US citizens buying things, but also from tourists coming to the US and buying things, etc etc.

He also wants to empower US citizens to become lawmakers by using ballot initiatives at the Federal level. People already make laws in 24 states and over 200 communities across the country with ballot initiatives, why cant we do that at the Federal level? Right now we entrust all the lawmaking power to less than 600 people in D.C. and many of them are working for the thousands of lobbyists who are also there, instead of working for the people who elected them.

There are many other reasons why I'm supporting Gravel, but those are the main ones. You can check out his campaign website (http://www.Gravel2008.us) for more detailed information on his stances and such.

Answer 7

Rudolph Giuliani or John McCain. Giuliani will be your next President! Al Gore would be the only democratic nominee that would prevent a landslide, and he can't beat him either!

Answer 8

John McCain. Let's elect someone who understands the cost of war.
