I like Ron Paul, I like him a lot, but I don't think he really has any chance at all at winning the republican primary. People fear change, and he is a big change from what most republicans are used to, (even if it might be a change to what republicans are supposed to be). But I hope he never shuts up because he always has interesting things to hear, unlike many of the other candidates.

There's also the videos of Giuliani and McCain responding very condescendingly to a medical marijuana patient, it's really disgusting to see their questions and concerns be brushed off as if it's not a big deal. But the thing that keeps me happy is knowing that most of the country wants change, and if the funds raised is any indication....the country is looking for a democrat.

I would like to see some democrat candidates make is very clear as to what they would do if president with the medical marijuana thing. I know they have all said they support it, but saying you support something is far different than actually doing anything about it. Right now the only one I know would do anything is Richardson, who is trailing far behind. As much as I like Obama, I'm a bit disappointed he was last to make it public he supports medical marijuana and would end the DEA raids. I was expecting him to do more than simply say what we want to hear, oh well, right now I'm just hoping Arnold makes some news and voices his support for medical marijuana and an end to the raids here in California.

And thanks for keeping this open, normally I wouldn't care about a thread of mine being closed, but politics and medical marijuana strike a chord with me! I really think everyone should see how offensive some of these candidates are acting, and hopefully motivate some people to register to vote and make some real progress in this country.
