The fact that Sheldon Adelson has already given his campaign $10million (and possibly as much as 20) tells us that ISRAEL wants to see Gingrich the next president of the United States. See politico(dot)com: "Adelson to give pro-Newt super PAC another $5 million"

why is it every election: "the other guy is bad, should not have been elected."

[califranky]

This is a Joke right? a Mormon as president? if this guy gets elected i will lose faith in every single American! ever since we got Regan in the white house i was wondering that this has to be a curse but now i can see it, What the hell is going on? we are in deep shit & this is the best we can do to make major changes? no wonder they are trying to put a ban on guns! oh God please help us

@RadarKat73080 I support abortion rights and the EPA, but I don't think you realize how bad things are. Watch some RT and documentaries. Tune in Alex Jones once in a while, while you still can. Things are no longer right vs left.

Romney ....3 wives later and he says he has talked to God ???? What planet is this prick on and what planet are the Americans who support him .....Scary Shit coming from the USA

[RadarKat73080]

@Mezocosm Some things Ron Paul says I like, but other things make my skin crawl!

[Mezocosm]

@RadarKat73080 Well no need to put down Ron Paul as the msm is already doing that, and there is lots of evidence that Iowa was fixed. If they are scared of him then he needs our support.

[RadarKat73080]

@Mezocosm They're ALL full of shit! Especially Obama! The Republican in sheep's clothing! I was optimistic when Obama won! A hopeful, young whippersnapper with a spring in his step and a song in his heart! Now, I'm running kids off my lawn with a cane!

[Mezocosm]

I'm sorry does anybody really think Ron Paul is a racist? You people need to actually do some research and understaqnd 9.11 was a lie and the only person (obama included) that might stop the tide of facism is this man, by repealing the patriot act and NDAA.

[Mezocosm]

Speculating that these election weren't rigged, and that is a big assumption...there are alot of people who are on board with the 1%, war and generally raping the planet overall, as long as they are aren't the victim.
