A lot of folks out there I would say align with my values but that certainly doesnt mean they belong in the White House (or anywhere else in government) and wouldnt get my vote.

But why would I vote for the OPPOSITE of my values? That would be stupid.

That is why one must be well informed about the candidate that they vote for...you would vote for the person that relates best to you, it makes no sense to vote for someone who does not have your well being in mind.

Can someone tell me what part of any political campaign is not propaganda? Campaigns ARE propaganda. The way things are set up, I can't blame a candidate for doing something like this. He's received the donations to be able to do it, so he might as well do it. People do keep saying that they don't "know" him, so this seems like a reasonable way for him to put himself out there for those too lazy to read his proposals on his web site.

I didn't watch the infomercial, didn't figure I needed to since I've read every document on his web site and my mind is made up. I had to clean out my DVR so I have enough room for both the Ghost Hunters marathon during the day tomorrow and the Ghost Hunters Live show on Halloween night. I have my priorities
