    An Obama/Kucinch gov is not something to laugh it. Kucinch offically endorses Obama. How cool would that be

    Choosing Kucinich as a running mate would be political suicide.

    Kucinich is a perfect candidate, while the general public is far fron perfect. They will not vote for a candidate who is leaning that much to the left.

    So... yeah, that will never happen.

    Obama. Hes the man, I mean have you heard him speak? He is possibly the most charismatic person ever. His speach last night was amazing. And dont even get me started on his 04 convention speech. And besides. How much fun is it to say Obama '08?

    John Edwards.

    I really don't think he'll make it very far though, he's running against a woman and an african-american so not many people are actually paying attention to him and what he's all about.

    BUTTTTTTTTT
    I really love how Huckabee's biggest supporter is Chuck Norris though. I would feel safer knowing that Chuck is kickin' terrorist ass for the good ol' U S of A.

    Tough call...

    Anyone who dosent vote because they think they are "sticking it to the man" or because they think it makes them a rebel is a fucking retard. You have absolutly no right to ever EVER complain about the goverment if you dont vote.

    Ron Paul, but like that's ever gonna happen.

    and a quick breakdown of the main other people:

    Obama - He got 1st in Iowa, by alot, is well liked and gives pretty energentic speeches, he could ride on to the win.

    Edwards - Barely got 2nd, spent near all his cash on a 1st or nothing campaign in Iowa, and his speech that night was god awful, the whole thing as a whole but then he started attacking capitalism, DUURRRR

    Clinton - Ouch, 3rd, her speech was her classic stump "I should be president because I deserve it most" Not to mention the fact more women voted for Obama too. Not a good night for her

    Huckabee - Jesus he came out of nowhere, but also the fact it was Iowa, come to New Hampshire, California and ect his almost as holy as Jesus persona might not fly. I gotta say though I don't like him, but watching his speech, he's a damn good speaker, something about him comes off as warm and compassionate

    Romney - He got crushed in Iowa, but new Hampshire is where it really matters for him. However though if McCain beats him in New Hampshire, I see a real posibilty that he's going to fade away quick.

    McCain - Oh John, he's almost a joke now, but New Hampshire is a real possibilty for him, and it could jump start his campagin again.

    Thompson - He wants to be Reagan, but he's not Reagan, hopefully though the more conservative people will be drawn to him then Huckabee

    Guliani - He jumps around from vagina to vagina like an STD, how can we afford not to elect him?!?!?!


    Anyways though I see the Dems becoming 2 way between Obama and Hillary, younger people going for Obama and older for Hillary, I think it's gonna be closer then Iowa let's on, but Obama will come out winner

    Republicans is a more varied race and I picture Huckabee not winning, but keeping up a good pace, maybe VP nomination. What I think it really depends on is New Hampshire, if McCain can win there over Romney aside from putting Romney out of the light I think it could hurt Thompson's campaign. Also though if Huckabee starts doing bad his supporters might move over to Thompson and vice versa, and I see Romney's supporters going 2/3 to Guliani and 1/3 to McCain if Romney doesn't win. McCain's campaign though might fizzle out there too.

    do any of you realize that Ron Paul is going to get rid of every government institution? he wants to get rid of the school board, welfare, everything. Sure he wants to legalize weed, but we will all be fucked with some of the shit he wants to do.

    All anyone seems to know or care about is that he wants to legalize weed. He is rather unrealistic.

    ^ Do you realize what you said is complete bullshit?

    He wants to eliminate the department of education. Why? Because its asinine to have the federal government dictate education. It should be left to the STATES to determine how their educational system will be.

    Basically when you say he wants to get rid of things which will fuck things up, you mean, he wants to abolish the control the federal government has and return the power back to the states. He does not want to legalize weed. He wants to legalize medical marijuana and the hemp industry. Get your facts right.

    Now that's just retarded, he doesn't want to get rid of EVERY government institution, just greatly scale them back, and he has nothing against the states doing it, that's the constitutional belief that most things should be left to the state's to do.

    Besides, alot of people do believe the department of education and such are a crock,

    i'm sure you know more about ron paul then i do and your probably right. He's just a bit too unrealistic (which is why he doesn't really have any chance). You have to agree though, most people want Ron Paul elected on the basis he will legalize marijuana, without really knowing any of his other viewpoints.

    Anyone who thinks that any of the politicians have any of your interests in mind is naive.

    All big politicians are already bought and paid for by corporations and big money agendas.

    Fortunately your opinion does not take away my right to speak and say whatever I think about the government or voting.

    We still have free speech. For now anyway.

    All of the governments have let all of the people down, all of the time.

    Thankfully I do not live in wonderland. My ability to succeed in life is not determined by whatever Micky Mouse figure head is in power at the time.

    Oh? And why would that be?

    I choose not to vote because I plan on leaving this nation when financially possible and I don't care whether or not it runs itself into the ground.

    I would vote for Gravel simply because I think he would reem the governmental system so hard, it would have to have some lasting effect (positive or negative, I don't really care). With this machine, I would rather throw a wrench than insert a favorable cog.
