How about Ron Paul, who is neither.

Romney, enthusiastically. He'll take obama's job away from him handily and we could be looking at something like a 60-40 blowout come November.

Ultimately you vote for the person who sounds most credible to you, for many its Romney for others its Obama, for some they like what they hear on Fox for others they like what they hear on MSNBC.
Come November barring foul play the majority of Americans will choose their leader and it will end up being the candidate with the most credibility.
For me that person would be Obama as he sounds more plausible as opposed to Romney who never really says anything other than trashing his opposition and his endless assurance that his experience at Bain capital qualifies him to run the country,An experience that he never elaborates on.
Obama gives me confidence that he truly has the best interest in the betterment of all Americans where as Romney gives me the impression that he will just rubber stamp anything his 1% cronies want and just pick the bones of America dry kinda like his Bain capital operates.
An additional plus for an Obama win is we'll have another 4 years of being entertained by those crazy birthers,,

You at least deserve credit for realizing that the monster has two heads, but the body is one.

Neither of the two talking heads has anything substantive to propose in terms of the economic policy framework, nothing at all about monetary policy and little difference on spending and taxation policy which, in turn, will make little difference in the budget, which is basically the money supply.

In short, the people want money illusion (erosion of standard of living by stealth), so the people shall have money illusion.

One of the main reasons why Ron Paul is so troubling to so many people is that he would lift the veil on that money illusion (reform of the monetary policy framework).

That, coupled with more individual freedom and the personal responsibility that comes with it, scares the red-herring crap out of most money-illusioned people and the stealth politicians who lead them through the two mouths of the monster and into the body to be digested as sheep and serfs.

Good Luck!

It's too bad a ron paul cant be elected

we need to shake things up in washington-
we need to turn congress upside down-they get a base pay of 50k a yr and the rest in bonus's if they balance the budgets-no longer than 4 yr term as senator

the congress should be made up of more reflection of the workforce and not all greased, slimy lawyers

we need to drop 100's of government agencies that cost billions but have little value
for example the dept of energy was created in 1977, 35 yrs ago to get us off foreign oil and to push for alternative energies
well, we've paid billions in payrolls for what????????????????????????
we cant even drill our own oil, and our whole economy (price of gas) is dependent on countries, who'd rather not see the u.s. exist-how friggin dumb is that??

we are 16 trillion in debt-we will be greece if we dont stop the madness


The American Dream is fading because of a socialist government mindset, and
dirty politicians, grabbing all the cookies in the cookie jar, not thinking of anyone else.

we need radical changes or in 5 yrs, we will be in a depression

this country is fueled by capitalism, whether you believe it or not-it's the back bone of our economy- too many jobs that require tax dollars to pay them and produce nothing into the economy and leaning too hard on a shrinking business work force.
85% of all business is small business- and all the business owners are nervous, not re-investing, because of the present administration scares the hell out of them.

Im neither a conservative or a liberal- im for common sense, and it's not spending money you dont have- we will have to pay the piper in a few years

the people making decisions now- will have thier golden parachute and wont have to worry
and here-in lies the problem, the disconnect,

Oh my... No tigers and lions and bears

I'll just vote that cool wind floating through the air with the
scent of freedom and the MEMORY of how both of the above suck

Paul or Libertarian
