and just out of curiosity, have you been partial to any current or past politicians? If so, which ones?

[BI30]

@redeemer61190 I was a HUGE Ross Perot supporter in '92, working for his campaign as a petitioner, so I know the appeal of the "outsider candidate". But only in retrospect did I realize I he was only right on a select few issues I focused on (like NAFTA), but would of been a disaster on everything else. Ron is this election's Ross Perot. Right on a few big issues, DANGEROUSLY wrong on just about everything else.

Ron Paul 2012 - The One Who Says Exactly What Bush 2000 Said, But Actually Means It.

@VoiceOfModeration You're "pointing out" that a video showing the lies and hypocrisy of George Bush is "partisan"? "Libtards"? What are you, 12? And yes the video has been "edited",since the convention was four days long and I thought that might be a tad much for a video. And "altered"? Nothing has been "altered". Every frame is exactly as it appeared on TV. As for "enforcing my worldview", what exactly do you think you're doing when you post such comments? Showing how "Fair & Balanced" you are?

[BI30]

@redeemer61190 I am hardly trying to paint Paul as a "corporate shill", but if you believe Paul opposes NAFTA because of how companies freeing South destroyed jobs here at home, then you don't have a clue about the man you are supporting. As I said (an you confirmed), Paul only opposed NAFTA because it wasn't "free *enough*" (calling it "Managed" trade not "free" trade).

[redeemer61190]

also strange for being a "corpoate shill" he is still pretty ignored by the mainstream media

[redeemer61190]

@BI30 Yes, because Paul is clearly saying NAFTA is only in the interest of big business, which he disagrees with. You are trying to paint him as some corporate shill. Theres also an intervew of him saying corporations are not people that doesn't sound so corporate shill to me.

[BI30]

@redeemer61190 I'm not defending nor endorsing Karger, just pointing out that the reason most people don't know of him is because he doesn't accept corporate cash... unlike Paul.

[BI30]

@redeemer61190 Do you actually think that quote contradicts what I said?

[redeemer61190]

@BI30 oh and if you want to talk corporate lapdogs how about Karger who worked as election strategist for corporate clients like tobacco giant Philip Morris?

[redeemer61190]

@BI30 Paul stated that "free-trade agreements are really managed trade" and serve special interests and big business, not citizens"

He is not a puppet of big business despite what you believe.

[BI30]

@redeemer61190 I don't question Paul's beliefs, only his methods. And there are several "honest and consistent" candidates running for president that you don't hear about because they won't take corporate cash... such as Buddy Roemer and Fred Karger.

As for Paul opposing NAFTA, I never claimed otherwise. But Paul did not oppose NAFTA because he opposed destructive free trade with Mexico. Paul opposed NAFTA because it wasn't free ENOUGH. Paul wanted an even MORE extreme NAFTA.
