First off , I know plenty of Paul supporters that are not college kids and are not people who care about drugs.
I happen to be a student who works full time and goes to school full time. I despise drugs but don't think you have the right to tell someone what to put in ther bodies.
Now can you please link me to a story to back up your claim about weed?
And while you are at it, please enlighten us on how efficient the drug war has been and how the billions of dollars spent on it were all worth it.
This is how those students think, for better or worse. And I even stated in my post that that assesment was not an accurate one. I also did not give any position on the Drug War. you read waaay to much into my post, and you missed my point.
me, because i will take ANYBODY over obama when i see statistics like this:
The official recession has been over since the summer of 2009 even though we have added some 14,000,000 more Americans to the food stamp program. What we do see is a surge in Americans filing disability claims --shooting up by 2.2 million since mid-2010.
is that freaking unbelievable? how do people think we can keep going like this? seriously?
clearly, the disability claims are people getting kicked off of EXTENDED unemployment, and we have a new batch of them coming up.
yet we still have massive war spending (we're not winning, though), foreign aid, a growing trade deficit, uncontrolled borders, a muddled foreign policy, a federal reserve ready/willing/able to debase our currency, no transparency, and unpunished fraud in the highest levels of the country.
do i still want ron paul to win? YES, you bet!
i am, if nothing else, a realist and understand that we are going to have to play the cards we are dealt, not the cards we want.

What was the main difference in the 2008 Tea Party and the 2010 Tea Party?
.... and now the 2012 Tea Parties?
There was no Tea Party in 2008. 2010 the Tea Party (many affiliates) were wildly successful giving the libs their worst beating in decades. 2012 election hasn't even started yet and one Rhino was thrown out on his butt.
Anyone who wants Obamacare repealed, spending cut and less governemnt regulations is a Tea Partier.
Can we just all acknowledge what an incredible failure of a thread this is? Like seriously, the OP's claim was completely outrageous. In a country of 300,000,000 people, you could find a tea partier that's voting for Obama (that would be quite a challenge, but there's gotta be someone making up that small margin you always see in exit polls of people completely voting against their expressed beliefs or defying demographic stereotypes).
The fact is the vast majority of tea partiers are behind Romney. Some have supported him from the start. Many found him acceptable and even a good candidate if not necessarily their top choice, and some take Floridasandy's approach.
The claim that anything short of a solid majority of tea partiers supports Romney is pretty out there, let alone the claim that not one single tea partier does.
The Independence Hall Tea Party PAC endorsed Governor Mitt Romney on January 2, the eve of the
Iowa Caucus. It was the first Tea Party in the nation to endorse Governor Romney.

The "first Tea Party" to endorse a Progressive???
There use to be just one and they were definitely the original.
