Poll: Who is the Piggs president?

[34f3f3f]

I had never heard of this guy, but then he doesn’t know who the Swiss President is. I’m new to American politics and my first impressions from the YouTube clip is that he comes across as a nice principled guy. He seems trustworthy and a lot of what he say about government vis-a-vis commerce, war and diplomacy makes sense. However, I was left wondering how much of his emphasis on social and legal contracts, which seemed to be pivotal to his idealogical thrust, are workable. I was a little unclear how you do away with the IRS and Medicare, and what replaces it. He also seemed to side-step the issue of global warming. Whether you believe it is man made or not, it can’t be ignored. It seems that contracts will govern everything and business will fund everything. What role is left for government?

Allowing guns on planes, which he says could have prevented 9/11 is a very shaky supposition. He appeared equally ambiguous on gay rights as on environmental issues.

Judging the man himself; his demeanor and ethos, I was left wondering whether he has presidential charisma. Arms flap about and he rambles, I found myself drifting off. I just can’t see him strutting the world stage, and being taken very seriously.

Just my outsider’s impressions.

I must admit I agree with qwerty depite having some amiration for Dr. Paul. My guess is that 80% or so of Ron Paul supporters will vote republican in the end. My preference would be a walkout of mass proportions,which I think would suit Piggs fine, as we seem to like the sidelines for now. Unfortunately we will probably have normal low voter turnout. A protest of mass proportions… that is what I would like to see. Vote for Ghandi, Malcolm X or Kennedy.

“All I know at this point is that I will not vote Republican.”

This statement is as ignorant as me stating that I will not vote for a black president, or a woman. You are categorizing with little of not foundation as this poit behind that position. It demonstrates what the majority of americans do; follow the herd.

To me I can see how you can disagree with the Platforms of all of the candidates but if you don’t listen to what people have to say how do you know you are making an informed decison.

I always pay attention to candidates like Nader and Paul becasue they help you better understand the way the politiacal process works and the introduce choices that many people may have never considered.

My guess is that 80% or so of Ron Paul supporters will vote republican in the end.

I always supported democrats, but after learning about Paul’s platform I realized how close it is to what I believe in. The rest of Republican field is just scary to me. If Dr. Paul does not get the Republican nomination, his followers will most likely persuade him to run as independent. I don’t particularly like that outcome, since progressive voters will be split between Dems and Paul, while neocons will vote Republican.

I think all liberals here will agree, that Ron Paul is at the very least the best choice among Republicans. So, I urge everyone, especially independents, to register and vote in Republican primaries for Ron Paul.
