Ron Paul 2012

I'm not going to support him here like I did 4 years ago, but I really wish people (not just the 'hooka, but the entire US) would give him a chance.

Sure call him fucking crazy, but maybe crazy is what this country needs.

Peace and Love is the answer.

So does that mean you are, or aren't going to flood the boards...?

Cause your tactics last time probably scared off more people than attracted...

Hell, if Neil Cavuto can come around, anything is possible.



I've never really been involved in politics in this year, but goddamn if it isn't one of the touchiest subjects out there. I finally understand all of the apprehension and anger in talking about it.

That said, this movie at the time was thought of as being extremely 'out there' with regards to the state of a corporate world.

(Just saw this movie for the first time tonight, had to plug a scene from it The contrast of him telling the truth while in the light and lying while out of it is brilliant!)


And yet, here we are.

You must not be looking hard enough or it's entirely too early.

Please don't ever be afraid to vote third-party or even write-in.

Nah, I'm fucking bananas, I would be fearful if a real person with influence shared 30% of my Ideals...

So, you wouldn't vote to put Gary Busey in White House?

I bet he could fix some foreign policy problems with the quickness.

I hate Gary Busey....

He's got all the respect of a dude his age that did shit...But he hasn't done shit...

He's the guy that you go out and hire when your lead drops out and you have sequel obligations to the studios...

Also we learned why celebrity in the white house is a bad idea with Reagan...and no one needs that shit to contiune...

I may vote for RP simply because Obama is not the person I thought I was voting for the 1st time. Went along with the bush tax cuts the first time w/out a decent fight. Didn't insist on a Public Option, went to the right with the morning after pill, and here is a guy who smoked weed and did coke who has heated up medical mj raids! He wasn't exactly outspoken when all this union busting went on either. Lots of other examples of Obama being way right of my beliefs. He is just another piece of a very broken machine.

in 2008 i had been wary of the racism charge against paul, and upon investigation i found his positions had evolved concerning the war on drugs and the death penalty with regards to racial minorities...(much more progressive then Obama btw)

and he doesn't support bombing more brown people which i like very much

I would never even consider voting for someone who doesn't believe evolution. Especially one who is apparently a physician.

On a side note. How the fuck did he get through med school thinking genesis is real?

If only thorazine had been around 2000 years ago.

Everyone I went to school with in Texas got through thinking Creationism was the real story. Hell, our valedictorian went to Harvard. You don't have to believe in Evolution to ace Biology doncha know.
