And best of all, it was on a paper ballot.

Normally I don't care who others vote for because it's their business. And normally I'm all baout thinking outside of the box and not following the crowd. However, I am curious as to why someone would vote for someone who isn't even a viable candidate. That seems to be the equivalent of not voting or of throwing your ballot in the trash. Ron Paul has barely even campaigned. I don't even recall him participating int he debates. At least I can honestly say I know what McCain wants to do as president even though he is not my candidate of choice. Why not pick the lesser of the two viable evils? And why vote for someone who thinks you still belong in the back of the bus?
