Please Choose Between Cynthia McKinney (Green Party Nominee) Barack Obama(Democratic Nominee) and John McCain(Republican party Nominee)

I choose Cynthia McKinney, but I think McCain will win. I think Cynthia McKinney is a strong woman, she has Many views that correspond with mine, and I'd like to see her become president.

It really annoys me that people ignore her, and pretend this is a race between only Obama and McCain. They made such a big deal over Clinton being a woman, and Obama being Black, and ignored the fact that Cynthia McKinney is both a woman *and* black.

The Greens (and ergo anyone stupid enough to accept their nomination) are ignored because they are fringe losers. Hell, even the Constitution Party seems practically mainstream by comparison.

The race is between Obama and McCain. If you wanted someone else, get over it. They aren't going to win. Obama will most likely win.

I'll be voting for Barack Obama, but really this election is very close right now although I was optimistic and voted that Obama will win. I don't even think the Green Party's candidate will be on the ballot in Missouri. I think the Libertarian Party and Constitution Party will be fielding presidential/vice-presidential candidates in Missouri, though.

There is something amusing about the fact that this election is so "close". You'd think after Dubya the Democratic Party could just waltz in...

McCain is a "maverick," and Palin is a woman and a regular, old "hockey mom."

You forgot to mention Bob Barr and Ralph Nader who are polling much much higher than Cynthia McKinney.

Even Chuck Baldwin is destroying McKinney. As said earlier, the Greens are a joke.

Don't get your hopes up for change guys, it will not make a single scrap of difference who wins between the two main players. it never has in the past in the US or Britain and it never will.
Their first port of call will always be to fill their own pockets.

You don't belive me?
Give it a year and then tell me what the difference is.

I hope that Obama will win, but think McCain will win.

I am prepared for a scenario similar to what the 1988 presidential race would be like if Pat Robertson had won the GOP nomination and went on to win the election.

Regardless of who wins on November 4, 2008, the happiest day of my life will be January 20, 2009...

After all, that's the day that the Moron is escorted out of the halls of power...

Really? I guess I'm looking in the wrong places, because I haven't seen anything on that.

Why is Ralph Nader always excluded from polls while he has some excellent points in his agenda? The media shuts him out by not giving him a fair chance to make his points heard, this does not mean we also have to pretend he is not in this race.

Why would you believe that the Democratic Party could just waltz in and win the election, when the middle of this country is still stuffed with Republican conservatives who are fearful of anyone with new ideas, an actual education and a 3-digit IQ?

Because he's not in this race. He's the Eugene Debs of our times, a fringe guy who's never going to be all that important. Hell, I tried visiting his website earlier this election cycle and he didn't even have any of these "excellent points" you claim are in his agenda. If someone on the fringe wants to be taken seriously, they should at least have some well-articulated views available for people to see. I do remember seeing a platform of his years ago, which, if memory serves (and it may not, I'd appreciate it if anyone was able to find the man's platform) was a patchwork of absurd and contradictory positions.
