Ok i watched The Republican and Democrat Debate this week. And ill tell how it went. Lets go thru the Democrats. Hillary Clinton- she blamed the whole entire war on Bush saying it is his war and all his fault, like a childish little girl who didnt have her way. She looks scary and unpleasent and said she will pull all of the troops out of Iraq if she gets ellected. Are you stupid? Iraq and Afganistan barely functions when we are there. how the hell do you think they will do without us? Ok now John Edwards- he made stupid comments like to Obama say that he had no stand on the war, Obama schooled him and told him that he was 4 1/2 years late. Edwards looked so stupid he waddled back to podium and seams racist saying that to a black guy. Edwards is out of the question. Now Obama is the best democrat, he knows what he is talking about, like improving securities of the market to improve the market and keep the money within the U.S. He has a broad core of beliefs. The only negative he has is trying to hype a race war but i dont blame him, it is kinda still around but people dont like that. Obama is the best democrat.
Ok McCain was a favorite for me coming in, but he looks a little shaky and lost a crap load of votes. The main reason people changed from him is because he is for amnesty unlike the rest of the Republicans, Mitt Romney got asked the same question right after and provided points why and the crowd cheered, McCain looked stupid. McCain is just a little bit too old, he isnt as fresh as he used to be and i think that worries him, kinda sad but it's our country and we need a solid leader. Ok Rudy is the other republican, he is the most democratic republican and really has some ignorant ideas, like taking Venzuelas oil and torturing people in coarse of interrogation. He likes things done, set, over. His ideas go overboard sometimes and i really dislike that, something hard to put your trust into. Mitt Romney is the best republican, his answers where all 1,2,3,1 and dead on. He represents himself really well, and communicates clearly to the public. He has almost nothing i disagree with. Some things he supports, no same sex marraige, legal abortions, no amnesty, death penalty,charter schools, three strikes law. Yes he is a morman i havnt seen anything that made him do something drastic from the rest from being a morman. I did a little research and mormanism is a form of christians. So people have these bogus ideas of mormans and Mitt Romney is the best Republican, no doubt in my mind. Fred Thomson might get in this but he missed the debate and he is two faced about federalism his core belief, which bothers me. We'll see how Thomson does but right now
Best Republican: Romney
Best Democrat: Obama
Let me tell you about Ron Paul he is a great guy and all, yes China market could trouble ours and all. But he wants to get rid of the IRS what one of our founding fathers created (internal revenue service) and get rid of income tax. If you get rid of income tax it makes the poor pay more and the rich pay less. Ron Paul isnt charitable or isnt understanding a very important part of being president America and of the people. Yes he brings up good ideas but he should just deal with money instead of EVERYTHING. The only reason i think someone would vote for him is if your income is above average and you want to keap as many pennies as you can and you want to call yourself a republican at the same time.
Chopper-
Im tired of this Ron Paul cult
On a question that asked about MORALS, he responded by bashing the war. On a question about how to keep the economy running, he talked about the war, and how it was wrong. The guy is an idiot.
My choice if Mitt Romney. During the Salt Lake City Olympics, he took over when it was over budget, and looking like a failure. Romney turned it around and made it a success that brought in a $100 million profit. He then donated his entire salary to the games. He also saved the Mass. budget when it had a huge deficit. Romney balanced the budget, and brought a surplus for the state. He has also helped to start up companies such as Staples, and Brookstone, and more.
Romney also believes in a strong family and values. He has also been married to his wife for over 30 years.
Finally, if elected, he will donate his salary of $400,000 to charity. Romney is the right man for this country.

Dr. Ron Paul.
Why?
He's a believer in the constitution and a doctor that delivered over 4,000 babies into this world.
-His pro-life stance comes from delivering babies but he isn't anti-abortion like others claim. Instead he wants to leave it up to the states to decide.
-He is gorwing tons of support and this comes from people who aren't told by mainstream media to pick him. He's gaining so much support that within a matter of months, he's now up to 5 million in donations.
-He wants us out of Iraq.
-He wants to secure our borders
-He never voted to raise taxes
and this is only the beginning. His special tactics in comparison to other candidates is honesty. He hasn't flip flopped. He's gaining tremendous support that even CNN tried to shut his supporters up after the debates.
Corporate America fears him, corrupt politicians that don't believe in the constitution fear him.
We need a president that believes in the constitution and doesn't just claim that he/she does. If you look at Ron Paul's face when he speaks, you can just notice the difference. He's being honest while others are putting on a show.
He actually does have a chance. His fund raising is over 5 million and all of this within just a matter of months! Not too shabby for a man CNN and mainstream media is trying to "ice" ;)

Nuke em Newt? I think not! We don't need more insanity we need a lot less! I am solidly for Dr. Ron Paul! The only real constitutionalist and honest man we have had run since Lincolns time! The Doctor would have as a priority getting us unentangled from our foreign mess.

Former Senator Mike Gravel. You might remember him from 1971, when he did a one-man filibuster for 5 months and forced the end of the military draft.
Hes a man with principles and the guts to stand for them. He speaks plainly and truthfully, with no sugar-coating. His ideas for the country are well thought out and reflect his intelligence. He has passion and isnt afraid to get angry from time to time. He really stood out at the first Democratic debate. Everybody except him played it very safe and talked alot but said nothing. Alot of politics-as-usual, which is exactly what the country doesnt need more of. Gravel is a man of the people, not of the corporations.
He wants to get us the hell out of Iraq. He recently released his Withdrawal from Iraq Act, which is a tough law that would require tough tactics to pass and would have our troops home by Christmas.
He wants to get rid of the federal income tax and replace it with the Fair Tax (www.fairtax.org) Our current tax code is so corrupted and riddled with exceptions that no-one in the whole country knows and understands the totality of it!! In Gravel's words "Its probably the most corrupt system of taxation we could devise!"
And he wants to empower the American people to be able to make laws by using ballot initiatives at the national level. Voters in 24 states and over 200 communities across the country already make laws with ballot initiatives. Why cant we do that at the Federal level instead of entrusting all the lawmaking power to less than 600 people in Washington? Who do you think would make a better decision, less than 600 people (many of whom are working for Washington's 30,000+ lobbyists) or a majority of the American people? I think I'd trust a decision made by millions of people more than I'd trust one made by a few hundred.

Vote for Ron Paul!!!!!!!!!!!
Ron Paul says
The Federal Reserve, our central bank, fosters runaway debt by increasing the money supply — making each dollar in your pocket worth less. The Fed is a private bank run by unelected officials who are not required to be open or accountable to “we the people.” Worse, our economy and our very independence as a nation is increasingly in the hands of foreign governments such as China and Saudi Arabia, because their central banks also finance our runaway spending. We cannot continue to allow private banks, wasteful agencies, lobbyists, corporations on welfare, and governments collecting foreign aid to dictate the size of our ballooning budget. We need a new method to prioritize our spending. It’s called the Constitution of the United States.
So called free trade deals and world governmental organizations like the International Criminal Court (ICC), NAFTA, GATT, WTO, and CAFTA are a threat to our independence as a nation. They transfer power from our government to unelected foreign elites. The ICC wants to try our soldiers as war criminals. Both the WTO and CAFTA could force Americans to get a doctor”s prescription to take herbs and vitamins. Alternative treatments could be banned. The WTO has forced Congress to change our laws, yet we still face trade wars. Today, France is threatening to have U.S. goods taxed throughout Europe. If anything, the WTO makes trade relations worse by giving foreign competitors a new way to attack U.S. jobs. NAFTA”s superhighway is just one part of a plan to erase the borders between the U.S. and Mexico, called the North American Union. This spawn of powerful special interests, would create a single nation out of Canada, the U.S. and Mexico, with a new unelected bureaucracy and money system. Forget about controlling immigration under this scheme. And a free America, with limited, constitutional government, would be gone forever.
MOST IMPORTANTLY
He can be trusted unlike any other politician that is running...
He has never voted to raise taxes.
He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
He has never taken a government-paid junket.
He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.
He voted against the Patriot Act.
He voted against regulating the Internet.
He voted against the Iraq war.
He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.
He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.
Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.

The only ones who speak the truth are Paul and Kucinich, but they have about as much of getting elected as I do.
