[flyingimam]

First off, I thought this is an outright spam, on more searching figured he really is a republican delegate casting vote in the electoral college.

Name: Gabriel Nathan Schwartz
Age: 29
State: Colorado

Please see the video & get to know how he & perhaps some of his colleagues are thinking:

Link TV | Video Player | Gabriel Schwartz - "Less Taxes, More War"

Here is the transcript:

Reporter: What is your vision for change in John McCain's administration?
G.S: Less taxes and more war.

R: Less taxes and "more" war?
G.S: More "war".

R: So, Where should the United States bomb next?
G.S: Iran Baby!

R: Why? Why should we bomb Iran?
G.S: To protect Israel.

R: So, you think Iran is threatening Israel right now, so the US should intervene on behalf of Israel?
G.S: Absolutely! Or Israel do it themselves.

R: So, What would that look like? What would the war on Iran look like?
G.S: Hopefully, Just uuuh... bomb the hell out of them from sky, no troops.

R: Are you worried about the escalating costs of Iraq and Afghanistan wars? I mean how would we pay for our war in Iran?
G.S: We plan a flag, take the oil take the money. We deserve reimbursement.

R: So, alright, you are commander in chief. Talk to me about how it works? Do you invade? or troops on the ground or just bombing overhead?
G.S: Just strategical air strikes. take out their nuclear facilities. "simple"

R: In particular though, what is Iran doing to threaten Israel? Talk about that relationship?
G.S: Building nuclear weapons, threatening the world.

R: Israel has nuclear weapon...
G.S: They don't threaten the world.

R: So, if Ahmadinejad was here today, what would you say to him?
G.S: Destroy your nukes.

R: Should United states use nuclear weapons when it attacks Iran?
G.S: We can use slingshots and beat them. I'm sure.

R: Do you have a message for people outside, who are protesting the republican convention?
G.S: Get a job! you can protest, but don't get arrested man!

R: So, John McCain said we might be in Iraq for another 100 years, do you support that?
G.S: We're still in Japan, We're still in Germany. We've been there over 60 years.

I leave the judgment up to you.

to me: this kind of thinking has gotten us where we are now and will further bring us problems of bigger scale. I don't even know how a 29 year old can hold such power to cast vote on behalf of the people without even a way to be checked to see who he voted for... and that is exactly why electoral college is now just being taken advantage of despite its original idea to protect the vote of low-population states. I mean this guy either gave buncha drunk answers or he really is a "right wing nutjob". this is the American extremist to me. no different than the other types of extremists in the world, just in favor of some other goals and interests than them.
extremism is extremism and in itself is the wrong thing, despite which side u r on.

ps. The transcript is written by me, so pardon me for any small mistakes if there are any. I tried my best to exactly deliver what was said in the video.
