oh, just to be very clear, when i said that ron paul was ‘awesome’ i was not saying that i agree with his policy positions nor do i plan on supporting him.
what i meant was that i love that he seems to speak a very different language than most of the people running for president, and it’s refreshing, kind of in the way that al sharpton was refreshing in the 2004 campaigns.
candidates who have no real chance of winning can say the things that the bigger candidates can’t, and i find that to be, as i said, refreshing.
a ron paul presidency(or an al sharpton presidency)probably wouldn’t be the best thing for the country, but having people like ron paul or al sharpton running for president makes the whole process a lot more interesting
and entertaining.
that’s all.
thanks,
moby
