Some state allow you to write-in the name of someone you like, if the name isn't on the ballot.

Maybe Ron Paul could end up getting more votes than Donald Duck that way.

The truth is, only a small number of people tend to vote for the loser if they feel they have no chance at winning the nomination or election. This doesnt been that they shouldnt, just most people like to feel they are on the winning side, even if they like another canditate better. What the US needs is a rallying of fringe parties and people to create a viable "third party", behind a canditate like a Ron Paul, not necessarily to win, at least initially, but to register a popular vote total that could not be ignored, even by mass media, to give people a true voice of opposition to the conformity of American politics. Is it possible im not sure, but in the internet age, the ability of the small to mobilize and make an impact is possible under the right leadership, guidance and alternative vision for the future.


Oh, and everyone that votes for that coalition party must wear V for Vendetta masks and costumes. Mass media definitely can't ignore movie references!! ! Oh, and a celebrity must name their baby Ron Paul, because celeb babies are descendants of the god of Mass Media.

Lots of babies have been named Jean Paul. Ron Paul would rhyme.
