I think I'd take him more seriously if his site spelled Purdue University correctly, as it is he seems little more than an amateurish political hack spewing sound bites.

Read his site.
Just to begin with : "When you meet Chad Koppie, take a look at his hands. Those are hands of a man who has worked hard all of his life. How many candidates for public office have truly ever worked a hard day in their life? That’s why many of our country’s best public servants have been farmers and hard-working middle class"
Nothing against farmers or those who work with their hands, I've worked with my hands all my life. But to me it's just a feel good statement trying to paint a verbal Normal Rockwell picture that says nothing about the man's qualifications to represent others.
"You can’t get more honest, tough or real than that", Gee, never heard that from a politician before, eh?
The reality is by the time we find out what a politician is really like it's too late, he/she has already been elected. And I don't single him out, I don't trust many on either side of the aisle as long as their campaign rhetoric isn't binding.

if I could give you more reps I would....
Me, I refuse to give the two party system another look, and I'll tell you, for a while I was going to go with Cruz if he was running, but he played the very same game as the dems play, he kept blaming them, name calling and even laughing, so I wrote stuff on his posts on FB, telling him, he was no better then the rest of them....and that is what people have to start doing....put a scare in them, let them know we are angry and fed up with the corruption. If you have a FB page, stop being afraid to write to them and tell them....remind them that we pay their salaries...not the other way around....
The preceding was a paid political announcement...

I think a viable 3rd party presidential candidate would be one of the best things that could happen for this country. Even if I didn't particularly care for the whole platform, if someone had a legitimate chance of victory they'd get my vote as long as I believed they'd thumb their nose at both major parties.
I don't do the FB thingie but never hesitate E-mailing my Senators and Rep both questions and comments. The inanity and outright self-aggrandizing BS of some of their replies are gold, I hope to paper a bath room with them some day.

yeah, me to.... I write them a lot, and believe I'm now on the FBI's most wanted list....LOL...
I think and wish all American's would wise up and vote for a 3rd party candidate, this country cannot take any more of the two party systems, they are ruining us....and our economy....more taxes for them to play with...and allocate wrongly.
yes, he pretty much agrees with me, on issues...lets face it, we can't have it all, but for the most part, I like what he has to say.
But the main essential thing is, we've got to wake those people up connected with the two party system....it really angers me, what they have done to this country....and I'm no longer going to be loyal to a corrupt party and that goes for anyone I vote for.

I think many of us just vote for the better of two evils. I have been voting since Nixon's 2nd term and have never been excited about a presidential candidate.
"Our forefathers did not politely protest the British.
They did not vote them out of office,
nor did they impeach the King,
march on the Capitol,
or ask permission for their rights.
They shot them!!!”
