ron paul=awesome/kickass?

[FORD]

As far as Ron Paul goes, I wish we could elect "co presidents" rather than a President and a VP. Of course sometimes that's what we get anyway (i.e. Darth Cheney) but it would really make sense if applied to a Rocky Anderson/Ron Paul ticket.

Paul could handle foreign policy, and the whole "federal" reserve thing, while Rocky saved domestic policy from the Randtard fascist nightmare thing.

Because I think the two of them teaming up on one ticket really would have a legitimate chance of being the most serious third party contender since Perot, who really could have won in 1992, had he not dropped out of the race due to BCE threats to his family, and then dropped back in. Don't know if I would have wanted to watch him and his goddamned pie charts for 8 years, but it would have been far better than NAFTA.

In any event, the REAL battle is Congress. The teabaggers and the fake "Democrats" need to go, regardless of who ends up on the Presidential ballot in November.

The domestic agenda is set by the Congress. A President like Paul would only be able to do what the Congress and the people would authorize. You know that.

true. but a president with an agenda could veto a lot of stuff he/she doesn't otherwise like. it's a bit dangerous to assume that because congress has to approve any changes that a president's domestic agenda isn't as important.

seems to me voting for ron paul is not a wasted vote.....if it does not matter who wins....because basicly its more of the same repub/demo bs...so.....it would seem that the more people who did infact vote for a candidate that actually might try and change something...would get the old gaurd looking over their shoulder....if those numbers were big enough..
They are counting on that mentality of only voting for someone who can win by their terms.....and we all know what that has gotten us.....

Look, my Dad used to tell me....."Vote for the person who you think will do the best job and not who you think will win.".

Paul's just not the person for me.

I voted for Perot and yes that gave the election to Clinton but it was my choice then.
