Joe Biden 2008 is the best choice..

[kyeot]

Im voting for Mike Gravel. Ron Paul doesnt introduce legislation to end the Iraq war and doesnt believe in a seperation of church and state (read War on Religion by Ron Paul). I wouldnt vote for Hilary or Obama as they are unwilling to filibuster the War Spending bill. Gravel filibustered by himself for 5 months to end the draft, Gravels on the peoples side therefore i'm on his side.

Your analysis is possibly the silliest, most pretentious, superficial and idiotic one I've ever heard. Youre worse than the useless talking heads on TV. Gravel and Kucinich are crazy? Why because they tell the truth? Hows about some looking into the issues instead of looking at how well they danced around questions??

[PoliticalSavant]

Both are iedalogues and neither is a pragmatist. They play right into the hands of the Democratic base and are toally and completely unellectable to the presidency.

[smokeymcpot88]

Wrong yet again. Kucinich is definitely idealist and Gravel has traces of idealism. But neither is an ideologue. And you completely missed my point. My point is, you might as well be on TV, spouting off nonsense about how rehearsed a candidate is or how well they recited their talking points. Youre just another useless talking head with no perspective. At least you could talk about strategies. At least thats interesting.

[PoliticalSavant]

Fair enough. I should be commenting more on substance rather than style. Point taken.

[smokeymcpot88]

Thank you very much. I was a bit harsh there, but I get frustrated easily with the dancing around the issues and question dodging and politics-as-usual and then pundits and people who compliment them on it and build them up. I think its counter-productive and no-one holds their feet to the fire and asks tough questions yknow...

[PoliticalSavant]

The more I think about it, the more I agree with you. Yes, you were a bit harsh, but I needed to hear it. Looks for improvements in my future videos.

[mydozer]

The true canidate will win debates from telling the truth which lead me to support Ron Paul, He tells his side of the story with out playing the politician game. He wins debates from common knowledge.

[PoliticalSavant]

I tend to agree with your assessment of Ron Paul. I sincerely hope he wins the Republican Nomination, but I dounbt he will. I cannot find even an ounce of partisan politics in his answers during the debates.

[bryantulsa]

Good analysis. I think you and I look at politics in a very similar way, but you've been keeping up with things much better than I have. Thanks for the video.

[PoliticalSavant]

Thanks for the comment. I first became interested in politics during the 2004 election cycle, and since then, I've become a rabid political junkie. I look forward to your future comments on my upcoming videos.

Go to Gravel's website for a thorough plan on how to get out of Iraq.

[PoliticalSavant]

bring troops home in 60 days...hand over reconstructions efforts to Irawi businesses...initiate aggressive diplomacy. No real substantive details. did I miss anything?

[truthout911]

What happens in Iraq after troops are out is up to Iraq. Thats not nor was it ever our business. The plan is a firm law that says get out of Iraq of the pres will go to jail. The US needs to stop meddling in other countries affairs.

[PoliticalSavant]

I agree, however we cannot just yank our troops out lickity split. We have utterly destroyed the country...we must find a way to leave while achieving the best outcome possible (whatever that may be).

[truthout911]

The same nonsense was said in vietnam. You cant do that at the expense of both lives of troops and citizen. Its not going to happen. 90% of Iraqis have said get out and over 70% of Iraqis say its ok to kill US troops, what other message do you need. Its their lives on the line, not yours or mine. Yes we can yank them out and should.
