It would be Ron Paul.

Why?

It still says volumes about the truth up to this point. THe only person who punblished unredacted cables was part of the Guardian, a UK newspaper, not Assange.

When a fictional goof-ball mascot of a third-rate humor magazine gets rated above all of the current candidates, then that says a lot about the candidates' intelligence, as well.

I'm with Fnord

That is an interesting video though. I think Paul has a good point about Assange. I'm inclined to agree with you that Paul is probably the best out of the R candidates though some of his economic viewpoints I am not in agreement with. His Libertarian views probably preclude his victory in a presidential race but you never know

He is a member of the Republican party and running for the Republican nomination for president. Please educate yourself.

Ron is the only candidate that represents real change. He'll bring the troops home and restore our civil liberties. Obama and the other typical GOP candidates are indistinguishable.

He ran for the GOP nomination in 2008 and now. Twice. The same amount of times Herman Cain, Mitt Romney, or John McCain have. He has been elected to 12 terms in congress as a Republican. He's has been polling in double digits in polls above the likes of Michelle Bachmann, Rick Perry, Newt Gingrich, and Jon Huntsman who you've all probably hear about extensively on the news. As I said please educate yourself.

Is that a sexist statement :x It sure does sound like one :roll: Ron Paul might be a Republican but his political views are Libertarian plus I am not sure who to vote for yet Ron Paul is just not some one I would vote for what has he done for women's rights :?: The Answer nothing but at least Democrats have and some Republicans.

No no no no, there's nothing sexist about what I said (not sure where you're pulling that card from) and I apologize if that came off as condescending. When I say educate yourself, I mean just that. You can't base opinions on you hear the talking heads on Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc say. You have take your own initiative with things like these because of corporate bias these so called "news" sources have towards candidates like Obama and Romney.

As for what Ron Paul has done for women's rights, he's done a lot protect your rights as individual. We shouldn't differentiate the rights of individuals based on what gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, political beliefs, etc.

I do apologize for accusing you I am sorry but yes you are totally right about. You can't base opinions on you hear the talking heads on Fox, CNN, MSNBC. If Ron Paul has done good thing's for women's right,s he has my vote.

Obama is bringing home the troops from Iraq right now. Seems you neglected that little detail the size of the Yellowstone caldera. He also just helped win a war in Libya without it taking over half a decade and thousands of american lives. No small feat.
