"I know that a third party candidate will not be elected President"

Well, they won't be if people swallow the Dem/Repub pills like you have. You are yet to explain away the third-party getting Lincoln elected.

A two-party state where both parties are >90% identical is for all intents and purposes, a one-party state. Are you happy living like that? I refuse to, and I can confidently say our Founding Fathers would not want this to be a two-party state. In fact, the parties came LATER.

Iraq Vets Against The War = true patriots!!

They need more exposure.

[skeetrosauce]

Yeah we should have never invaded, and at the same time we should have never supported saddam from 1959 until 1991.

We made him what he was, and then we brought him down.

When I say "WE" I mean the government.

Same way I feel.

She sounds like she was turret gunner and saw some serious shit as she rolled around Iraq.

Think of all the guys that actually walk the streets and what they are going through and went through (myself included).

When it was good it was great over there but when it was bad it was just a downward spiral of unnecessary violence.

[skeetrosauce]

Wow, that was a powerful speech by the woman from Iraq Veterans against the war.

POWERFUL!

1. I am not claiming on those four individuals... they are for the constitution. 2. Obama=McCain in my opinion... 3. If you believe that absolutely no politician is a man of their word..than do some current day reasearch or choose to remain ill informed in that aspect. Those 4 individuals don't accept pac money from corporations or other Those 4 indidividuals are candidates-I wouldn't call them a politician-that would be an insult.

[ZachsMind]

The four names you claim "wish to repeal the patriot act" say so ONLY because they believe there are enough people who want it repealed, that could help them get elected.

You say Obama is not a man of his word, but McCain is? WTF? McCain has been known to make exact opposite statements in speeches on the same DAY to different audiences!

I say POLITICIANS are not men or women of their word. They serve whoever or whatever pays their bills, and that's NOT "We The People."

[Rosetteismyname]

obama isn't a man of his word either... the difference between obama & mcCain-McCain has made his views clear from the beginning...Obama however has changed his view on politics as much as he changes his underwear and as QUICKLY as the money roles in from the corporations so that his views fall more & more closely in line with mCcains... (wanna give this a thumbs down-be my guest-the TRUTH is always a thumbs down) Only 4 candidates wish to repeal the patriot act Barr/ Nader/ Baldwin/ McKinney

[Rosetteismyname]

In TEXAS there only power that the governer has basically is only to sign off on the death penalty...Bush when he was here signed off on more people dying than any govenor in a long time..THERE WAS NO EXECUTIVE POWER.... just like he said

[monalisasmiles4you]

Was anybody tear gassed or Tased at the DNC? Hmm...
