Who would you Vote for in '08 Election?

[darkwing69]

for me it is too early to say, i still have not been overly impressed throughout the debates for either democrat or republican. Being a military man the one that will definitely win me over will be the one that can come to some decisive direction for iraq. That doesnt mean just drop everything and leave but more a solution to bring peace and restore order to the region.

your joking right? no one has ever heard of ron paul, i admit that from the way you discribed him he sounds perfect but those attributes are quite frankly, anti-republican, and thus i assure you he will not be nominated.

Why am I not surprised? There is nothing impeccable about Ron Paul's record.

In case you haven't heard, there's basically no political support or will to reform the tax system by political leaders, so he's simply catering to the people who, by today's measure, have no real voice in our government anymore.

He is basically a typical republican, with no record on civil rights, international leadership/skills, or social reform policies.


As far as Borack is concerned, the more he speaks (and doesn't when it counts), the more disappointed I am in his leadership abilities. He is soft on the Iraq war, scared to take a stand for stopping the war. He was slow to criticize the democratic lack of action and proved to be ineffective as a leader in cutting the funding for the war. And his pro-illegal immigration amnesty agenda is something I cannot support. Does he not realize how many struggling blacks will be impacted by sub-minimum wage mexicans coming in for work?


To be frank, I can't stand being a democrat anymore. All of them have lost their souls; it's just taken them longer than republicans. I'll be registering independent this election.

blackvoter, greetings! Did u run across, The Bully Pulpit The Politics of Protestant Clergy by James L. Guth, John C. Green, Corwin E. Smidt, Lyman A. Kellstedt, & Margaret M. Poloma.

If u've time lend it to reading, at least, scanning this book. BTW does Ron Paul state his religious preference?

[Godssoulja]

Right now I would have to say Obama. I have to do more research on the others running.

lol! Last time I saw you out here, you were whining, crying about how I'm picking on you (tissue...); storming out the door promising to never return. So much for the tantrum.....I guess you missed having a platform to spit your pro-white agenda.

Bruh, don't flatter yourself; your sentiments hardly earn you hatred from anyone. Your pro white; pseudo black rhetoric is well documented here. You talk a good game on the surface about the whites you love so much (I wonder why,,,,). Call him what you want. White is white and Libertarian is just a mutation of the same ole Republican agenda/party.

The guy is just trying to make himself appear to be a different flavor of republicans. And your referencing of a two year old editorial article laced with rhetoric, hardly qualifies as a 'record'. It also makes a joke of your 'reason'. Keep putting lipstick on that pig in hopes that you can fool us into falling for it.

And again, I don't hate you. What about you is even worthy of that? I put you in the same corner as the forked tongue whites I deal with everyday at work....

I feel the same way as you. Virtually none of them seem genuine. There is a small part of me hoping that Obama will step up and show me something real. But he cowardice, calculating and evasive like all the rest and I hate to have to admit that to anyone.
