Besides Rand you're correct. These are for the most part the only people in congress that truly fight what's right and to better the country, not just corporate interest and cronyism like the rest.
Good list man. It's unbelievable & unacceptable that we only have 4 trustworthy politicians running our country
Apparently it is what the people want since they are only willing to elect those whom are up for sale except with few exceptions. Just look at the way Ron Paul is marginalized in the GOP debates and that tells me the American people have no interest in honesty or Constitutional adherence from their elected representatives.
It is important to note that Kusinich and Sanders often vote to restrict the individual liberties affirmed in our Constitution in favor of collectivism.

I love constitutional fundamentalists. You do realize that the founding fathers started the revolution so people could govern themselves, and not use traditional static solutions dictated by an unchanging structure. They expressly built into the constitution the ability to change and adapt since no one knows what is going to happen in the future.
If you think laws and regulations that ensure water that is safe to drink, food where you know what is in it, doctors that know how to practice medicine, outside air you don't need a mask to breathe, safe cars....well, the list goes on...is against your personal liberties you have the right to think whatever you want. Personally, I like to live.
If you want to start ranting about what we have now is against what the founding fathers actually wanted, don't use that crappy appeal to authority. Unless you can resurrect them and ask them yourself, you are just projecting your beliefs on some one who can't correct you.
"The Almanac of American Politics has called Sanders a "practical" and "successful legislator." He has focused on the shrinking middle class and widening income gap in America that is greater than at any time since the Great Depression. Other priorities include reversing global warming, universal health care, fair trade policies, supporting veterans and preserving family farms. He serves on five Senate committees: Budget; Veterans; Energy; Environment; and Health, Education, Labor and Pensions".
Bernie is a wackado who like a broken clock is right twice a day.
Really? Bernie is going against both sides of the Human Caused global warming issue and is going to 'reverse gloabal warming'? That alone places him in the odd encampment and spectacle that the former VT gov, howard Dean niow owns. What is in the VT water? Of course Bernie was born in Brooklyn NY.
Odd how Bernie wants to close the 'income gap' when VT has an unliveable tax that drains the residents and welcomes only the ultrarich ' flatland' farmers and their agricultural holdings and farm estates. The exclusivity of VT which Bernie maintains for the wealthy flatlanders is something to be admired.
I agree with that list. Sadly it's not enough to turn this country around.
Ron Paul is totally being ignored by the press.
