I’ve been avoiding this…
December 22nd, 2007But I guess it is long overdue. I’ve thrown my considerable support and vast resources (”lol”) behind both Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul. Kucinich follows my own personal viewpoints more frequently, but it seems plain to me that both care much more for the American people than your common candidate. Both are unafraid to challenge the status quo, to buck the party line and to be they believe they ought to be. It seems to me that someone like Clinton or Guiliani wouldn’t take a shit without first having polls run to gauge the impact that taking a shit may have on their prospects…whereas both Kucinich and Paul act and vote from their concious (much love to Feingold due to this too, though he isn’t running). I mean, reading the USA PATRIOT Act, who in their right mind would vote for legislation that is not only nearly universally unconstitutional but also GUTS FREEDOM AND LIBERTY RIGHT OUT OF THE UNITED STATES???
Wha wha what??? Voting from your concious? Not simply spouting some clip friendly nonsense that looks great to the solid quarter (you know, those clueless twats who actually believed that douchebag come guzzling bitch Bill Frist (or for that matter his butt-fucking circle jerk buddies Rick Santorum and Tom DeLay)).
Now, that said, I don’t think there is anything wrong with either John Edwards or Barack Obama. I would vote for either man and know that they are for the most part honest and care about the public. But I don’t get the same sense of ‘getting it’ that I get from Kucinich and Paul. Slowly the mainstream is starting to catch on to the seriousness of the crimes which have been perpetrated against our country, but it isn’t going to take baby steps to get us back. It is going to take massive and sudden change (much like the change which must be instated TODAY to stave off the worst of the effects of global warming).
I think the people who care most for the Constitution and for the United States in general (the United States as PEOPLE, not the United States as a device to exploit for personal profit) should be President.
I’ve also donated to Edwards, Obama and Dodd (I really appreciate the lengths Dodd is going to to thwart both his own party and the Bush administration). But at the end of the day I want radical change. I want a revolution. I want the truth.
Sure, Ron Paul may be a bit of a religious nut and has a couple of places where our viewpoints do not meet, but normally a President does not make himself dictator (yes, George Bush needs torn out of the White House and given the Mussolini treatment) so I’m not too worried…but I think he should run with Kucinich as both would help balance the other and together probably do the best damn job restoring the country at this critical juncture.
