Are you suggesting that Obama in fact did not lie about the ACA? Are you suggesting that Obama in fact takes responsibility for the mistakes of his administration? If so I am confused. Normally when someone takes responsibility they don't do it by blaming others. They tend to not make weak excuses. For example excuses like : "I was not informed." When in fact they were informed well in advance.

Yup, capture that 6% that supported Ron Paul in the GOP primaries.

But please, put him on the ticket, he'll drag more moderates to the other side.

That is 6% that stayed home or voted for obama because of how ron paul was treated at the convention. It was a bigger mistake than was realized then or now. And it was more than 6%. There were alot who liked ron pauls domestic but not his international policies and a better less international version (rand paul) would get alot of support.

This isn't about me. It's about your inability to show proof Rand Paul intentionally plagairized. Keep trying to avoid that fact.

Because you say so so even though you have no proof? Why listen to you, you haven't got much right.

Not for me...

Christie, the bombastic, in your face President and
Paul, the petulant, I'll take my toys and go home VP

Good luck with that ticket...

Yout stattement which is a bald faced lie doesn't surprise me.

No he didn't and you have no proof.

If you've looked in the mirror you've encountered it before. The ignorant ones are people like you who barely scratch the surface while making a mountain out of a molehill.

oh look, look I plagiarized

Anyone, not you of course, who has looked into the tabloid accusations would know he acknowledged sources in articles and books but didn't footnote them at times. That isn't plagiarism.
Get it now? Probably not since it means you'd have to take the thought process to the next level.

Just Wow!

Those are the facts. Try to swallow them.
You have no proof of that but that wont stop you from spreading misinformation.

Prove he stole something. The only thieves are the big government cowards who love to steal others money for their causes. I'm sure you're all for Obamacare too. Which is stealing and I bet you're okay with it, when you do it.

Hardliners will vote party line regardless of who the candidate is. The votes that are up for grabs are the independents. It can be argued that Ross Perot demonstrated that the Independents can in fact impact an election.
The last 2 elections demonstrated that hardliners will vote for a bad candidate rather than break from party lines.
Obama's first 4 years by any measure were a dismal display of poor leadership and even worse results. He maintained a lock on his party.
Romney has the personality of wet cardboard. He is however a very successful businessman and it can be argued that he was a net gain as Gov. But he was in fact in the pockets of more special interests groups than can be counted as is Obama and company.
In reality both parties are 1 and the same beast.

I picture him, like Khrushchev, pounding his shoe on a table, when he doesn't get his way. He's a good fit for NJ, but his candidacy would not be received well in many parts of the US.
Again more proof, you don't get it. It's always about policy and not about someone who "looks presidential" or someone you want to have as a friend.
