My views on issues:

- Tell any company that wants a bailout, "Sorry, you made your bed sleep in it."

- Stop ovespending our tax dollars on stupid stuff and end earmarks period.

- Give a 2 year time limit on ESL education for anyone and make English the offical language of EVRYTHING, no drivers tests, govt info, etc. in other languages.

- Build our border fence, hire more security for our borders and ports, pardon Ramos and Compean within my first 90 MINUTES in office.

- NO AMNESTY and step up immigration enforcement.

- End free education and healthcare for illegal aliens, no birthright citizenship, no funding and massive fines for sanctuary cities.

- Bring out troops home and only use in cases of true national defense. Simpler words, butt out of conflict between other countries.

- Better tax breaks for companies who limit or eliminate outsourcing and create new jobs in the US.

- Drill offshore for oil WHILE funding research for new types of energy.

- Go after celebrites and CEOs. People who do the least amount of work for the most amount of $$$$$.

- Raise the salaries/benefits of troops and teachers.

- End abortion exculding cases of rape and incest.

- States can define marriage by taxpayer vote ONLY.

- Make concealed weapon carrying legal in every state.

With all of that may i have your vote?

Yes, you would certainly get my vote. I don't agree with everything, but a heck of a lot more than the two choices we have now. I'm curious, I thought libertarian was for open borders and immigration. Do you differ on that, or am I mistaken in what I assumed they stood for on that issue?

I have a queation about your abortion policy. Why do you approve of murdering absolutely innocent babies merely because their father is a rapist or related to the mother? You are in favor of murdering a baby if the mother is under 18 and unmarried, which automaticlly makes the father guilty of statuatory rape. Please explain.

Alright. In cases of rape or incest, the mother was impreganted by force. I can understand if a woman does not want to keep a baby in that case. Even then i would give the woman resources to favor adoption over an abortion.

Fine with me. How are you going to get vegetables picked?
Who was picking them before the 1970s, when there were not millions of illegal aliens in the country?

Kinda both. The libertarian party platform does support illegal immigration but i DONT. Also, the libertarian presidential candidate Bob Barr has a voting record against illegal immigration.

Mexicans

You have to go back to the depression to find regular Americans being the dominant migrant farm workers. WWII seems to have started it all.

Fine: Poof they are all gone.

Again who is gonna pick the vegetables? Even the least educated American thinks they are too good for that work. BTW they make over 9 bucks an hour in FL when I was there in 2006 so its not purely pay. I saw that on the news and it floored me.
