Dude Ron Paul is a fuckin awesome dude! Even though he is a Republican and i've never voted Republican I would definitly vote for this guy cause I agree with everything he talks about from getting out of Iraq, to the reasons why terrorists hate us, to the marijuana legalization. Anyone on this board who doesn't vote for Ron Paul doesn't really love weed that much. Or value freedom for that matter.
Sorry, I'm not voting for a conservative Republican, regardless of his or her stance on marijuana legalization. There's more to life than smoking pot...like health care, education access for the less-than-wealthy, helping the poor with a leg up on improving their lives, fixing our crumbling electrical and road infrastructure, protecting the environment, the right to choose, gay rights, protection of civil liberties, division of church and state, and so on.
But okay, if I had to choose a Republican, he'd probably be my choice. I'm not even sure of what his stance is on all the issues I listed, but it doesn't matter: if he supports those then he won't get the Republican nomination, and if he doesn't he won't get my vote. So either way, he won't be getting my vote, and it's highly unlikely that he will be the Republican nominee and thus won't get any votes at all.
I mentioned Ron Paul's stance on Legalization because it is something that may interest people here. His stance on other topic's like the economy, civil liberties, education, gay rights, and personal liberties is right on the money and worth taking the time to learn about. There are a lot of good video clips on You Tube or check out his website. Oh and by the way he only joined the Republican Party because the system is so biased against third party candidates.
Thanks for the comments :)
that all depends if the man gets nominated from his party. i hope he really does get nominated and wins though!
Hope as you will but in all actuallity he's got a snow balls chance in hell.Quote:

Having said that, Paul really does seem to be the only possible GOP nom worth a damn. He's not one of these current repugs who puts party ahead of country, and sold out to big business and the religious right. It speaks volumes that fellow conservatives tried to shut him out of debates. He's pragmatic and intelligent, and I have yet to see him try to pander to the emotions of the FAUX "News" crowd. He's pro-small government and quite focused on liberty.
He can think on his feet and is a successful person in life, unlike the current muppet we have in the White House. I'd vote for him, and that's saying something as I've sworn off supporting the right-side of the isle ever since these neoconservatives took over and shot this country in the foot.
Hell, as long as Hillary and Giuliani both aren't EVER in the White House I'll be happy.
Once again, the choice of not who I like but who I dislike the most....running against Hillary or Obama.......HELL YEAH I'd vote for him.Quote:
