2008 Presidential Election
Have we discussed this yet? I don't remember, and I'm curious.
How about an option for "A woman or a black man, are you kidding me?"
The democrats are taking a dive by refusing to take the easy win by fielding a white male.

I just wish there were some actual drunkards around here who can handle themselves like adults while still acting like retards - liquor&poker
I'm not sure about Ron Paul's stance on the income tax but I'd think he wants income tax reform as he's anti-Federal Reserve which is basically what the income tax goes to pay for.
Look here and it's obvious that Ron Paul is against taxes of any kind. He's also known as the tax payer's friend by the NTU.

Smart Americans will support Ron Paul. Too bad there aren't enough of us to get him elected. :P
He has 6% support according to polls after the last debate. Too bad FOX will censor him form the next debate, even though he's running as a republican.

Actually, Obama for the loss. He's blackish. He won't win for the same reason that Bush jr. won twice.
Ron Paul has never voted to raise taxes, has never voted for an unbalanced budget, has never voted for a federal registration on gun ownership, has never voted to raise congressional pay, has never taken a government-paid junket, and has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch of the federal government. Furthermore, he voted against the Patriot Act and was one of only a handful of congressmen that voted against the Iraq War.

Here's my take.
Obama? Nope. Never happen. Don't think I wouldn't like it to, but the entrenched GOPer's will wage the most grass-roots 'get out the vote' campaign to get every registered Republican to vote against whoever the dems elect to run. The GOP is comprised mostly of white, middle-to-upper middle-class people who think that the government needs to look just like them. Second point is that Obama was sworn into Congress in January 2005. Prior to that, he was a state senator for 8 years. This grasshoppa have much to learn before his congressional kung-fu is strong.
Clinton? I think Obama's got a better chance, but she does have experience on her side.
If the dems really want to pull a coup, Clinton should announce Obama as her running-mate ahead of time to sew up a shitload of undecided dem voters. The GOP is going to have a rough time enough as is, but if a Clinton/Obama ticket were 'leaked', I'd be hard-pressed to see how the GOP could pull out an upset.
why is my moral compass always pointed east? that's the direction of the nearest liquor store.
