    No. At the idea that we would sacrifice our liberties for security.

    Like this has never been done before. Americans have always been willing to sacrifice liberty for security.

    Arian Foster said he's voting for Ron Paul.

    GAME CHANGER.

    forgive me for being 27 years old, and I haven't followed any presidential candidates as close as this one, but is it normal for the news networks such as CNN/Fox News to be so open in expressing their true feelings about certain candidates? I thought this was independent journalism and when viewed to an open public it has to come across as unbiased?

    Or am I wrong?

    lol last night, Ron Paul's interview with Piers Morgan, the very first line said when the show started was "Ron Paul won't be your next President."

    I'm not saying he is wrong, but can you imagine them talking about Romney like this? They'd get pulled off the air so fast mostly due to Romney's connections with Clearwater broadcasting.

    here's the clip:

    The difference? Romney has a chance of being elected.

    When you're the richest, most powerful person in the Province and your biggest threat is a ten-month frigate ride away, you can afford to hold stupid ass opinions like this.

    Why do you say this? I can guarantee you if Paul doesn't get the nomination, Romney will not be president.

    if Paul voters vote at all, it won't be for Romney.

    So, who will they vote for? Chuck Baldwin, a guy who thinks atheists should be executed? The guy who Paul endorsed in 2008?

    You guys could ignore him and we could go on with, you know, the post-worthy material again.

    (By the way, I am paid by the massive conspiracy to post things like that. Ka-ching!)

    they might not even vote period. You don't vote for something/someone you don't believe in, do you?

    There's two ways to look at it: Do I vote for the lesser of the two evils? Or do you just not have a dog in the fight and just go down with everyone else?

    In other words, you think it will be a successful argument for Republicans?
