Joe Kennedy had some interesting thoughts, but like Ross Perot, he was a tad radical with his isolationist policies. Pulling out of Iraq is not a "pull-the-plug" type of act. It would result in chaos and us having to go back there under a UN issue later on and wasting more blood and resources.
No he is for non-intervention. Not isolationism. I'm pretty sure Mr. Kennedy is not a protectionist.
"It would result in chous"
Well, who's fault is that? You don't use problems caused by your philosophy as an arguement against other people's philosphies.
"be back there under a UN issue"
Are we the masters of our own country or not? Also, if Iraq is being protected by a foriegn country what's the incentive for the new government to foster its own defense?
@divisioneight I got that feeling too, He would start out saying some very good stuff, but then he would say things like pull out of Iraq, I like cutting spending, cutting taxes, less goverment, but yes he was too Radical. Scott Brown's gonna do a good job. bye bye obamacare either way woot
Most libertarians aren't charismatic because they are not talking heads. They are blunt, honest, and badly want to solve problems. Unfortunately, that is why an Independent will never hold the Presidency either. Sheeple react to emotionally charged rhetoric and not to unattractive truthful messages. People like buzz words too much.
Joe KENNEDY U ARE THE MAN but im afraid this election wont be Ur election. i hope u can still fight for the withdrawal of american troops,screw it SLASH ALL TAXES!,
@chungo608 like divisioneight brings up, there is no getting out of Iraq now, I wish we could but either we finish the job now or the UN screws it up and we'll end up paying more for it. we have to finish the job, stop being so nice to the enemies of our Unites States and get it over with so we can go home.
Well the fact is America has to face reality that there ARE NO MORE FUNDS TO FUND THIS WAR so yea get over it your broke ,now we should break home right now .America has been in iraq since 2002 and continuing and its worse than ever. why risk these young men lives to fight for crude oil when we can drill that crap off alaska. You wanna WAR, OK declare it,go fight it, AND WIN IT,but don't tell me that im being nice cause im not nice,IM MAD AT GOV!
whoa whoa whoa now. Don't you realize how much literal tons of supplies we have over there. don't you realize that to pull out would cost us more than to stay? I agree it just needs to be finished already, maybe if our enemy was a literal country it would be easier but our enemy is a bunch of rats we have to seek out a few at a time and have to be identified before we can kill them too.
Kennedy is by far the best candidate. I don't think he had a snow balls chance in hell of winning in that state. But they said the same about Brown. Slowly people are realizing that big government doesn't work. Its still too late overal but we will need some damage control and real rebuilding. Instead of communism which the democrats seem to favor.
Joe Kennedy has the right idea, the bottom line is that we can't lower taxes to bring small business back without reducing deficit spending in all aspects. To think that we can keep a 10+ year war going and bring health care to the masses while lowering taxes is just digging our own grave. I mean, think of the money that we could have put into health care, big business regulation, homeland security and green technologies if we hadn't wasted it on an endless war?
Kennedy is the best candidate...his voice needs to be heard. Brown is second best and I guess we should vote for him in these circumstances. Coakley is the worst and for heaven's sake Martha....stop the Bill Clinton closed fist, thumbs up gesture....it's phoney, it's not yours and you can't make it work. Vote for Brown. If he does enact legislation to end the Federal Reserve....the bankers will kill him....they killed Lincoln and Kennedy and tried to kill Andrew Jackson and Reagan. Truth.
I agree with some on here - I would vote for a Libertarian every time if I thought they could win. We are making progress. The focus now should not be on a third party but on taking over the Republican party. That is our best route.
Wow. Is this the best the democrats can do? While I like some of Kennedy's statements he can't win. So my vote is for Scott Brown. He wins on taxes, jobs, protecting Americans, and health care. I'd rather have someone with military experience in the seat. Martha thinks she is entitled to "Kennedy's seat" while Brown thinks it is "The People's Seat". Brown is the kind of guy I want in charge of my state.
i will vote for scott brown reluctantly because i know that kennedy is the best candidate. and the only candidate to challenge the failure of government for the past 100 years basically. which includes the federal reserve, the income tax, fannie and freddy, the u.s. empire, keynsianism economics, israeli lobby, etc. but of course he doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell to win, so i must vote for scott brown. for the sole reason he will shut down the democrats.
0:11 did coakley just say, "we walked to school" wtf? how is that a qualification for u.s. senate, how does that make you a better person. the key is getting to school, not how you got there. just for that phony plea qualifcation, i will not vote for martha coakley. as much as i think scott brown is neo-con phony, we need to shut down the democrats, we have to restrain big government. and scott will at least hold the line i believe.
He would have a chance if people didn't buy the propaganda of 'polls' & the lie the two-headed wants to keep alive: 'lesser of two evils' & 'don't waste your vote'.
Their greatest fear is for moderates to REALIZE they are currently the MAJORITY or plurality at the least.
They desperately have to keep us diluted or their power hold is doomed.
Fact is, it is stunning that this race is close at all. This tells me that there has never been a more opportune time to take back control from Dempublicans
If you believe that your the bonehead. Maybe we should have Judge Judy try them. Man I am getting very tired of stupid, feeble minded ignoramuses. Please do America a favor and either move to Cuba or get snipped so you will not continue to pollute the country with idiots. I apologize for not being "tolerant" or "diverse" but that is whats wrong with this country. Someone should buy you a pillow bitter kit and a mattress pad to soak up your accidents.
Its funny how many people say Kennedy is the best but has no support. Unfortunately an instance of Duverger's law: single district electoral systems lead to two dominant parties. If only Kennedy was the republican nominee he would probably win.
I think Kennedy makes the most sense, and actually believes in conservative principle unlike the other two, and I will be voting for him because I don't like being screwed by Republicans and Democrats. Its unfortunate electoral laws are so biased against independents.
Kennedy won the debate on the economy from a purely rational and commonsense perspective. However, like most libertarians, hes dead wrong on defense. And the hard choices needed now, like spending cuts will not sit well with the emotive voter, or the ones intellectually unable to see past their own entitlements. At the end of the day, a vote for the either the Rep. or Ind. is a vote that might save America from statists like Coakley.
Fiscally responsible Martha? Like keeping innocent men in prison on the tax payer dime? I like Kennedy, but he doesn't stand a chance. Brown is going to win this!
martha sounds like an idiot, saying she did this and that, and that she understands us? well martha if you really did, you would know WE DONT WANT TO BE FORCED TO BUY HEALTH COVERAGE OR BE JAILED/FINED!
