40 points why romney and obama are basically the same candidate

There's a lot of focus on a few small issues, such as the Federal Reserve. Most Americans (probably upward of 75%) do not support ending the Fed. It would be the statistical equivalent of asking them if they both support a mixed economy or not, and then bitching that mixed economy is a scam and it should be between a pure capitalist and a pure socialist.

And where do you get these numbers to make up your supposition here? Is the paradigm of setting up a fight between the pure capitalist/socialist what Obama is doing now as part of his division tour?

I know Paul isnt' going to win, even if he goes independent. That isn't his fault though, it's the fault of the proles who can't see anything but left or right. how comfortable is the right with Romney?

Ron Paul made Ron Paul a less viable candidate all by himself.

His ideas are to the right of Paul Ryan and he will carry that racist stench with him for the rest of his life.

No, he will never be the president .. and if he wasn't from that backwater district that he's in .. he would have never been news.
 
Paul is a too far libertarian, he's an "originalist" I can agree the size and scope of the Fed;'s is ...excessive ( up to 24% of our annual GDP from 20% when Obama took office).

But i want things ;ole the FAA, If I was gong for a libertarian, it would be Johnson, a much higher quality of thought and works.

Paul would strip down to the enumerated Constitional duties of the Fed's - not a bad idea to cut out a lot a crap the Fed's get into, but not that far.

Let me ask you, do you think that using a liberal tactic of pejorative name calling those who don't agree with you is going to win you those voters as converts to your way of thinking?

I think that you Paul supporters do yourself a dis service by trying to be so militant...

Well, they could always be fucking morons like the American public. Either way, we would still be in exactly the same level of mess, because Paul supporters rarely get their candidates elected.

He has some good ideas, but far too many of his ideas are just lunatic.

There is no such thing as a lazziez-fare economy. It's just a libertarian wet dream, but it exists nowhere on planet earth.

ya. well I'm not too keen on the constant encroachment of the Fed's on state sovereignity.
Not just usurping powers, but intertwining money streams, so the Feds de facto control state purviews.

I'm more of a federalist ( i know i've said it often) then a libertarian. I'd rather see someting akin to "dual" or "co-operative" federalism, rather then the crap
"new federalism - which is just block grants to the states, but still subservient to Fed'l powers.

It's my bias, i readily admit it, it's my concession to original intent, in this increasingly monolythic Federal gov't. which seeks to blanket all facets of co-sovereignity.

it's not about name calling those that don't agree with me. it's about calling out people for their insanity of doing the same thing over and over again (lesser of two evils) and expecting different results.
I wouldn't care if people voted johnson or wrote in bernie sanders, just so long as they dumped the insanity of the establishment elite.

I'm surprised to see you here. I saw a news story about someone shooting himself in the ass with his own gun at a movie theater and I figured for sure it was you. Are you posting standing up?
