Bob Barr, Libertarian because the mainstream candidates are awful and don't come close to the conservative principles I believe in. That simple.


Bar none. It's Bob Barr for president 08

I was going with Obama but I believe we MUST drill we are going to be in dire trouble if we dont atleast look into Nuke power,etc and Dems say no to everything .

There was a guy on CNN yesterday very smart guy who was an ex oil tycoon (forget his name) who has history of being correct and made great case for drilling,etc. I dont think we will be energy Independent in 10 yrs but moving in that direction untill than we need REAL fuel not Al Gore lala land.


Reps are now IMO the Relegion party and I left them among other reasons.

So yes might go Independent not sure yet .

Ron Paul had great ideas like for once taking our money and fixing up our own country .
People say he is an isolationist but he isnt as you know he subscribes to FAIR and realistic trade not the wacky one sided (and not our side) that BOTH parties subscribe to.

Well, there is always the Socialist Workers Party....<gulp>.
Though many here will disagree . I find Mcain and Obama much smarter much better choices than Bush and Kerry.

I'm voting third party (Libertarian). When the rest of the country wakes up and votes with their brain not what the media, elite, and their wallet wants, this country will be better off.

I want a 10 party system!! I just can't vote Republicrat anymore!!!

As soon as we stop taxing labor in this country, the economy is going to grow HUGE.
Vote Fair Tax, locally and nationally.

I don't agree with Bob Barr's sudden change in almost all of his stances, don't like Nader, Chuck Baldwin is way, way too conservative for me (against women in the military, running on a platform specifically mentioning god).
What's wrong with God? He sounds like a pretty good guy to me. I would like to vote for Him. Nobody else out there worth voting for.

No. I want my vote to count and make a difference, so I am going MCCAIN, despite my differences with him.

I have previously voted Buchanan (3rd party), so I support 3rd party. Just not this year!
