that type of thing may not even happen in steve's life time. Why not some Creative Observation and choosing the best right now? I think Obama is the closest to Steve's standpoint in this particular race that is a viable candidate IMO.

Even when it is contary to a lot of western thought the usage of power has a price.
Trying to produce change by using shi (chinese word that unfortunatly has no resemblence in english), also has advantages.
You should also keep in mind that Steve doesn't read the news, which is a disadvantage if you want to play in an election campain.
In addition you should also keep in mind that I'm not Steve and just interpreting his decisions. (even through I'm a moderator here, the views I expressed in this thread are my own)

According to this website, about half of US income tax is being spent on military expenses. Is this really necessary?

Learn to read your own statistics. You can't really understand a issue like this when you aren't able to understand statistic that are designed to make your point. The website states that that more than the income tax gets spended on military expenses.
Then I think that cutting military funding is a good idea, but I don't think that Ron Paul can cut more military funding than a democratic candidate would due to reasons like party pressure.
