I don't care if you say Republican or Democrat. I'd just like to know who you feel would be the best option and you would trust do a good job once 2008 comes around! Also please give me a reason why! (Doesn't have to be very long!)

Just interested in other people's opinions!

Good for you asking this question.
once you read the oppinions of all of us. take some time to go to different web sites and research the issues. ask yourself what you are most interrested in. what issues do you think the next president will be able to really make a difference in? how is this person going to affect my future? will this person be good for America or not?
then look at what the person stands for. If you agree with abortions you may want to choose Rudy Juliani (sp) if you like people who never make the same statement on an issue and can't "Stand" for any one particular thing, then vote for Hillary. If you like people like Ross Parrott who come into the race and really don't have a snowballs chance of making it to the White House then vote for Ron Paul.
In my oppinion (remember to find your own view)
I like Mitt Romney. His dad was Governor of Michigan, he was raised to be a smart businessman. He saved millions on the Salt Lake City Olympics. He worked with both sides of the fence to make changes when he was governor. I just feel he'll do a great job. but search for yourself and trust your gut to make the right choice. if you look at the facts and the past 10 years and how the people have stood on the issues then you will clearly see who the best person is for the job.

Joe Biden

Kucinich, Kucinich, Kucinich. He is the most true honest soul out of the Democrats. When they let him answer questions in the debates and do not give him questions to make him look bad, his answers make me want to applaud in my living room. I know that "they" have already picked their candidate, but we can fight it. He cares about the earth and wants to protect it not rape and pillage it. He speaks about strength through peace and wants to bring our troops home.
Besides, good things come in small packages.

Either Obama or Edwards. Both are progressive and have the american people's best interest in mind. Rather than having corporations their strings like our current president.... Hillary is so in the pocket of big companies. She sat on the freaking board for Wal-Mart. There's a wonderful company that isn't killing the middle class *cough* sarcasm! *cough*

Ron Paul.

He never voted to invade Iraq, Never voted to raise Congress pay, will never let the internet get taxed, voted against the Patriot Act.

He is principled and has a voting record to prove it. Limited gov't, lower/ flatter taxes and much more freedom for individuals.
