Well please do check out Ron Paul's positions on things! Have you watched any of the Youtube videos of him? I have posted links---they're a few weeks back. And there's the RonPaul08 link on my journal, too, follow that and see what you find out. He and Kucinich are the only candidates who aren't trying to appease either the democrat or republican "bases". And since both dominant parties are totally corrupt, I would like to see some independent, libertarian and green candidates get a coalition going that would elect someone outside the existing party structure. The existing party frameworks are defunct. The conservatives aren't conservative, and the liberals are confused.

I want our government to obey its own laws. And I want our nation to stop going around playing global policeman, and spending our national fortune.

So I'm pretty firmly libertarian these days. I have a certain socialist bent as well---there are some social programs that I think do a lot of good---but for now we need to restrain our spending on wars and our subsidizing of corporations, and Ron Paul would do that. No dickin' around.
