You people need serious help. Ron Paul is a terrible candidate.

YouTube - Ron Paul Courageously Speaks the Truth

(sheesh, Giulani makes me sick -- he's WORSE than Bush)

Watch this video. The first time I did, I thought "what an excellent candidate, Ron Paul is. So articulate and sensible. I wouldn't mind him getting elected."

Then I did some research.

Look, Ron Paul is all talk. He may help big corporations, but not the lower social classes.

Ron Paul is simply a charming "face to the people" to get them to vote Republican...just as Bush was.

You're being fooled yet again.

You're basing your opinions on a YOUTUBE VIDEO. Do some actual research.

Don't you realize that he worked with Ronald Reagan? Or did you actually like that scumbag?

Major problems with his stance:
- pro-life
- anti gun control (ie. pro guns...)
- anti universal health care

Haven't the past eight years shown you that Republican = bad for America?

I expect your response will be "it's Bush, not the Republicans".

Sorry, but it doesn't all come down to Bush. Most Republicans today are idiots. The party today is not the same as the one Lincoln led.

(For one thing, Lincoln was atheist...unlike Ron Paul...)

Look, Ron Paul is in the minority of his party. Elect him, and you're returning the House to Republican control. His party does not agree with him with regards to Iraq and the Middle East.

The last thing we need is another four years of "President vs. House" on every issue...

You people seem to dismiss the democrats...yet they say *precisely* the same thing as Paul, about ending the war.

On that note, stop criticizing Clinton & Obama. Both have at least raised the right issues: ending Iraq AND universal health care.

Stop focusing on one person, the president, and look to the actual party you're electing. It's time the Dems were brought back in.

Any one of the Dems' candidates would be better than a Republican (ie. Ron Paul).

Personally, I would vote for Mike Gravel, but that's just me. The American cowboys probably wouldn't vote for someone from Alaska.

In sum,

- Ron Paul is a terrible choice for America

- Mike Gravel is the best choice

- Even if Gravel doesn't win the nomination, please vote Democrat. It's been nearly a decade since Clinton left office. The rest of the world wants him back.

- Voting for Hillary would be like voting Bill back in. Even if you don't like her personally, vote for her!

I'm disappointed that people on this forum ("for Smart People") would even consider voting Republican again.

Normally I take an open-minded stance...but it seems the Europeans are right. You Americans really are gullible, aren't you?
