Presidential Election

So, I don't know if all of you follow politics, but the GOP has been full of excitement and disappointment (mainly this). Who do you think should win the presidential candidacy? Do you think Obama deserves another shot at being president?

The American Presidential Election is a very elaborate scam to make the population think they have the freedom to elect their leader when in fact the leaders of this country have been decided well before the actual election date.

I proudly am never voting. The real leaders of this country just use the ballots as firewood for their quarterly celebration of another four years the public has been tricked into thinking the President is the true head of state.

Well, I tend to agree with most of this. The people have the tools necessary to take more control on a state-to-state basis, but they are too lazy to pursue the knowledge necessary for change. I think it is important for people to actually keep up on the news, especially dealing with politics to point out the flaws in our system. Americans are basically brainwashed to believe their vote is going to have a huge effect on the future of the country.

The GOP is a sea of joke characters, Obama probably should be a 1 term president. But the fact that he's better that the GOP pool he'll most likely win

I voted for Obama last election, but the fact that he signed the NDAA for 2012 has really ticked me off.

I'm not a fan of the WAAAAAAY Uber religious side of the GOP but I do like Ron Paul's stances on internet privatization and the MMJ community. Again..not a fan of his pro-life/religious viewpoints though. It's going to be a tough year for my pick.

In agreement with all of this. I think Ron Paul is the best, but stands zero chance of victory due to his want to legalize mary jane and his inability to get approval of his republican brethren.

Ron Paul or bust

I'm on the same page as the three guys above me. Ron Paul is the only candidate I would approve taking office, our only hope in my opinion.

I got into a debate about politics on this other forum I'm apart of. I mentioned Ron Paul as my choice for presidency and got about 40k negative rep. I don't understand why people think socialism is a solution to the problems in America. Also, why give Obama four more years?
