Who will you be voting for this election?

Bankruptcy is good because it will give our country a fresh start.

The only reason why things seem to be stalled under Obama is because the Republicans have dug in their heels at every turn in order to make sure he fails.

I seriously doubt he will get rid of the amendments in the constitution..... besides he is in favor of privacy and property rights which is listed in the constitutional amendment Article [IV.]

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

the constitution has been amended to get rid of slavery and inequality so there for the constitution supports freedom for all, except when jailed for a crime.

it is frustrating that people like you use scare tactics to misinform the public about presidential candidates.

Article XIV.

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Definition of LIBERTY
: the quality or state of being free:

I suggest everyone look it up yourself, don't take my word for it, don't take there word for it. look up the constitution and the amendments, read Ron Paul's official website, only then will you be informed and not misinformed.

here is another example of him supporting amendments to the constitution. http://www.ronpaul2012.com/the-issues/second-amendment/

I chose the "not sure yet" choice because I don't know if I'm going to vote for Ron Paul as a Republican or Independent.

Since you are in no position to push things along, it looks like you will have to keep on waiting.

I might not be in a position to push things along, but I can use my first amendment rights and peacefully assemble with the occupy movement so that is something I plan to do much more often.....attention must be brought to the corruption in the system. You can keep on waiting, but I'm done waiting.

This statement is complete and other bull****, that's not just my interpretation, your statement is so blatently contradicted by the facts that it's hysterical.

The Democrats had control of the House of Representatives and the Senate from January 2007 to January 2011. During that time they have had control of the executive Branch from 2009 thru today, and had a fillabuster-proof senate from January 2009 till about January 2010 when they lost Ted Kennedy's seat, and the seat Obama vacated.

The Democrats did not need a single Republican vote, so the Republicans couldn't stop anything Obama wanted to ram through, including Obamacare.

The Democrats didn't even bother attempting to even work on a budget while they had control, cause they wanted to hide just how much debt they were shoving onto our children and grandchildren.

Blaming Republicans is outright dishonest Kraichgauer, I suggest you drop DNC's talking points and start facing reality.

The facts support my stance on this, I know that being on the spectrum makes it hard for people to change stances, but the facts put the blame on the Democrats, not the Republicans.

Go to it! That is your right. And if you wish to freeze your buns off this winter, by all means do.

Well its better then sitting around drowing in depression.

It's as though you've never heard of the filibuster, or the fact that a sizable minority of Democrats were obeying their corporate masters pleas in blocking the public option in order to protect the blood-sucking health insurance industry. Plenty of the democrats are also paid off by wall street.

It's as though you never heard of a 60 vote super-majority in the senate...

1. There is no Fillabuster in the House of Representatives.

2. The Democrats basically had a 60 vote super-majority in the United States Senate, the Republicans couldn't fillabuster anything.

Fillabusters are shut down when you have 60 votes in the United States Senate to shut it down, the Democrats had total control of the House, Senate, and Presidency. You cannot legitimately blame the Republicans for Obama's failed policies, cause the Democrats could pass anything they wanted without a single Republican vote.

Actually, I should have said conservatives, not just Republicans, as plenty of Conservadem Blue Dog Democrats had sided with the Republicans, as Marshal had pointed out. The fact is, the Democrats only were the majority in name only - the number of turncoats who worked with the Republicans made Democratic legislative control impossible.

-Bill, otherwise known as Kraichgauer

When did I say Paul, or anyone else, was going to get rid of amendments to the constitution? I was just pointing out how Republicans believe in what I referred to as a never never land filled with conservative social and political fantasies which had never existed.

Why even bother voting? The Electoral college decides anyways, not the American people as a whole. Even if it did, it wouldn't change a damn thing, you have too many idiots who vote for idiots, and you only have idiots running. Between that and my own undying wish to see my own country suffer... yeah...

Other than the little rant... let me truthfully answer. I most likely wont seeing as how it truly is the electoral college that decides. Now if it were for representatives/senators, id go and vote, but for a president? Just a damn figurehead except for a few things such as Declaring war (which even then I am pretty sure they would need senate/representative approval.) as well as the dreaded veto, which all it really does is force the bill back into the senate/house in order to be put through an even finer filter.

Basically I would encourage more people to look into electing proper representatives and senators as they are the ones who really decide the course of our country. Just hope they don't get corrupted by lobbyists and such, even though that most likely happen due to the fact that its basically a requirement in order to even survive in DC. Of course im also of the sort that feels there should be both a term limit for EVERY government official, especially in the Legislature and judiciary branches AND an age cap. Age cap to me is needed simply because I believe that we don't need senility clogging up the system.

Wether a politician is a republican or democrat is irrelevent because either way they can still be bought by the same people. At least there are a lot of people catching on to how corrupt the system is I'm actually kind of impressed.
