Ron Paul 2012
-
I will speak for myself in saying we, as a country, still have a chance as long as this guy keeps trying. With all the speculated candidates and those that have already announced their running, we have a choice for liberty, or a choice for the same.
This year he is running for the Republican candidacy, and I hope he gets a lot more exposure than 2008.

Take a look at what he's done for his congressional district in texas, and then tell me you want him for president... I hate talking politics online but I agree he has a great plan for the country, sadly he has shown in Texas that he can't even make things happen at the small scale level (he has brought zero funding into his district over his past term). That being said, I have no fucking clue yet who I'll vote for, but being a musician funding for the arts is extremely important to me.

here we gomoderation bro. the problem with america is the lack of attention span. look how fast obama's approval rating went from "socialist d-bag" to like 60%.
wht you think is important is different than the guy next to you. the worst part is that neither of you will feel it is important next week because there will be a new disaster unfolding.
we have been focusing on more important things for the last twenty years. look at the education, social security,and healtcare system. nobody deals with it because there are more important things going on. deciding that nobody needs to learn how to be creative and use their imagination, spend an hour in gym class, or speak a foreign language is just another thing that is going to come back and bite america in the ass. nevermind the future intellectual climate of this country, though, because gas is getting pricey.

Does it really matter? Who ever is elected these days, everyone's regretting their decision before the term is over

Is it beyond your consideration that perhaps they don't see the job of their congressman to bring home the bacon, but to actually represent their views on small, fiscally responsible government and work to create that in DC?
Show me where in the constitution it says "take money from people and fund artists" ?
If we keep running 1.5-2 trillion dollar defecits, where is your "fund the arts" money going to come after the dollar collapses?

You gotta start somewhere. If people are willing to cut spending of anything, that's a start. Instead, they "compromise" by increasing spending tit for tat.
Shithead #1: "My district wants to give another no-bid contract to make government pencils for $200 each to MegaSuperCorp".
Shithead #2: "My district wants to provide more books about having 2 dads to all school children"
All 500+ Shitheads: "DEAL!"
