So if all things are equal and all politicians lie, i still choose the one that is pretending to tell the truth....tancredo.

Hate to burst your bubble here, but have you looked into the ACP? The name sounds nice, but they are Christian Dominionists and believe that the US is a Christian nation that should be ruled by Bible-based principles. Tancredo is running on their ticket as a convenience. He has almost nothing in common with them in terms of worldviews (they overlap on some of the social/wedge issues). I'm gonna go ahead and go out on a limb here and guess that under 99% of ACP candidates, marijuana, medical or otherwise, is not going to be an issue we'll agree with them on.
Sorry, but being a single issue voter is impossible for me. Sure I care about mmj but I also do care about gay rights, the environment, and preserving Social Security and medicare/medicaid. On the overwhelming majority of issues I could not disagree more with Tancredo. So I won't be pulling a lever for him just because of mmj.
I do wish that there was a third party because I'm one of those who falls into the fiscal conservative/social liberal grouping. Unfortunately the majority of elected Republicans aren't fiscal conservatives in practice, and their social views are repugnant to me. So I end up voting Dem most times because at least they're honest about spending. So, pretty much, politics sucks.

This forum is a perfect example. You have a candidate that is openly willing to do what everyone in the cannabis scene wants. We finally have a chance to legalize, and you people wont let it happen, because you are distracted by these wedge issues the establishment likes to throw around, for this very reason. This is a mmj forum, the #1 issue in this election is who is most mmj friendly and the answer is BY FAR....tancredo. None of his other politics matter enough for you people to be saying "dont legalize it now"..."lets wait another lifetime for a chance at legalization".
The biggest difference I can see between the two is that hickenlooper is and always will work for the man. He is a member of this single party false democracy we have, and tancredo is not. Tancredo at least claims to work for the constitution, and is not in the bankers democrat/republican parties.
"i could never vote to legalize mj bc the guy that wants to said something mean about my buddy, barry "barrack huisen obama" soetoro years ago"....give me a break. No candidate will ever be perfect, and you will disagree with something every candidate has to say, no matter what their stance. Im not gay, not in the military, im not going to have an abortion, but I do smoke mj....so im going to vote for the important issue. The one ive been waiting half my life to vote on, the issue thats actually going to effect me.
Vote for the constitution and the people, not for banker cartels and the establishment. If people REALLY wanted true change, then they would vote for a 3rd party for the first time in how many years?? "change" coming from a republican or democrat is just a lie geared towards getting voters....nothing will ever change with either republican or democrat running things.
Vote for legalization, not for regulation. Its as simple as that.
Their is no way I am voting for any politician just because he supports legalizing Marijuana, when he is a flipping freak on other issues. The freak does not support other issues that are important to me. I am intelligent enough to analyze his position on all issues & will vote for the candidate that is the most closely aligned on all issues that I consider important.

You are correct. Sorry for the typo. Amendment 62 has been recycled and didn't not come close to passing previously.
Should not medicate prior to posting :jointsmile:

He still is a republican. The only reason he is running on the 3rd ticket is because he got in the race to late to run on the republican ticket. I really cant believe someone would support him simply because for whatever reason he now talks about legalization, you can thank people like Tancredo for mandatory minimums, forfeiture laws and every other get tough on drug laws. He spent 5 terms in Congress voting for every anti-drug legislation put in front of him. He sure wasnt doing anything when it mattered and has been the enemy of marijuana the past two decades, now all of a sudden he's for legalization. Puhlease.

Less than 3% of our oil comes from Iraq--we get most of it from Mexico-- Venezula--Canada.
To add--Haliburtion if this is what you're referrring too actually loses money in war zones as they have done in Iraq--and they are NOT into drilling oil. They supply and service the equipment for others to drill--and are more of a large multi construction business--that is typically sent into developing countries to help out. In fact, Bill Clinton used them on a couple of occasions.

It's like the repubs are attempting to get around the general election process by trying to get maes to withdraw so the repubs can decide their best candidate. They still deserve to lose, it's just hilarious to see this unfold.
What's really going to be funny is when this 300 foot Tsunami hits the U.S house and Senate on November 2nd.
Judging from the polling data right now--it's going to look like Custer's last stand for democrats running for re-election--LOL. They are certain to lose the house and have about a 55% chance of losing the US senate also.
That's what you get when you go against the majority wishes in this country.
