If you're sick of the one-party corporate agenda, Ron Paul.

Obama's raking in the corporate contributions, he must have proven to the corporations that he's willing to play for the elite ruling class.

Until you study each candidate and decide based on what you think our president should be doing you should not even vote. Voting just to be voting makes no sense; an uneducated vote can put the wrong person in office. Look at each candidate’s platform and compare what they say with what their past reveals. Then when you have people telling you who you should vote for you will know right from wrong (like the person who says Ron Paul was the only one who voted against the Iraq war. Obama voted against it, Clinton voted for it without even reading (by her own admission) the intelligence reports on Iraq). A vote for a person who has no chance of being elected sends a message supporting that persons philosophies and concerns but is really a wasted vote that may allow the wrong candidate to get into office.

depends upon which way you want to go.

Obama and Hillary are competing to see which can be the most liberal. Obama wants to talk to Osama and other terrorists to see if we can't work things out. (He will get Carter's endorsement.) Hillary is on the gun-ban wagon once again with Feinstein.

Ron Paul is without a doubt the most conservative person out there. Of all the candidates running who were in the Senate at the time, he is the ONLY one who voted not to go to war with Iraq saying it was a bad idea and Unconstitutional to boot.

Everyone else is between the two extremes.

I cannot believe anyone could be torn between the two.
You are obviously considering voting for Obama yet also considering someone who stands opposed to almost everything Obama stands for (ie Paul has advocated in his Congressional Newsletter that Blacks are to blame for the difficulties faced in black communities, that he will end most welfare spending in the name of lower taxes - in fact no income tax, that he will withdraw the US from all multilateral organisations and treaties aimed to make the world a better place).
Obama is a true liberal that believes that society should be judged on the status of it's least fortunate. Paul believes in Laissez Faire and will see poverty and inequality grow and the US discontinue it's role as a world leader.
The only thing I can see the two candidates have in common is oppostion to the war - but for totally different reasons.

Barack Obama is favored by the Youth Sector, Blacks and Muslims while Ron Paul has many supporters in Yahoo Answers because of his excellent views on critical issues.

VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know who will likely win.

Depends on if you want Drastic Change (Obama) or if you want to revamp the entire government (Ron Paul). Our country is so messed up that neither is a bad choice.

Ron Paul was the only one that actually debated at the debate.

Ron Paul is a traitor to Conservative Values

Ron Paul is running as a Republican, but his values and goals run counter to everything the republican party stands for.

If you have to ask, you don't know a thing about politics.

If you want freedom, vote for Ron Paul.

If you want Islamic sharia law, vote for Obama.
