United States Presidential Election, 2012

Hey Scarecrow, I'm curious - do you, at all, like any of the four remaining candidates (or any of the previous major candidates)?

I kinda liked Bachmann.

Not because I like her policies, but because she would be easy pickings for Obama.

Thanks, Scarecrow, for giving us a helpful reason on why you liked a candidate for a reason other than promoting your own party's interests.

Owait, Red said Scarecrow.

Sorry to intrude.

Ron Paul. Without a doubt. The man has integrity. I don't agree with him on everything but he's sure as hell no hypocrite (as Romney is) or bigot (as Santorum is). I don't know a ton about him, but it seems that he is a reasonable, decent man who is more intelligent and fair-minded than any of the other current candidates. His ideas for policies aren't perfect, but there are good ideas in there that are certainly worth discussing. A race between him and Obama would be one worth watching.





Unfortunately, he's too liberal for most conservatives and too conservative for most liberals. He's not going to get the nomination.
 
Ron Paul would not disappoint me as president, I'll admit.

His ideas of a pseudo-isolationist state are different, and it would be interesting to see how they would affect the nation.
 
Refusing to form alliances is pretty similar to isolationism. Look at Switzerland, they have trade and stuff but no alliances, which is what I was talking about.

hey wait i have an idea

we all vote for Ron Paul because liberals don't have major problems with him and conservatives don't either.
