man, I wish kucinich would win, he's so awesome. he's all about equal rights and animal rights and alternative energy sources. he wants equal tax cuts for the rich and the poor instead of favoring just the rich. I really wanna run for president once I get to be 35.. (which won't be for awhile) my friend kenny had a dream that I was president... it'd be awesome I'd want to do so much for the people.

Paintbucket, we actually like to call people like you "Insane dixiecrats who act like they spent the entire cold war in a shack in Montana eating cats."

It's easier to stop a car than an 18-wheeler.

It's easier to stop a snowflake from falling than an avalanche.

It's easier to catch a softball than a 50-ton boulder.

I consider myself to be a conservative democrat (though democrats are generally liberal) but I do believe that the whole liberal-conservative/democratic-republican catfight is just another over-exposed media conflict.

Honestly, people should just consider the values, not the group. And not everyone will have all the exact same values of any group. By joining this "group", you're conforming yourself to their values, which might not be your values if you took some time to reflect upon them. <For example, the Republican party is generally anti-homosexual rights but there are Republicans that are pro-homosexual rights. See, they don't fit that "mold" that society is creating for the Republican party.>

Funny you should say that actually. I find many liberals to be very conservative.

Ideologically, the LP makes the most sense. Now, people actually taking time to think about the US's problems instead of cheering for a Dem or Republican because that's what's communally and politically accepted is exceedingly implausible.

I hardly call an extreme right winger a good judge on the difference of a party, seeing as you’re on the lower right edge of sector 4 of the political spectrum. Let's face it libertarians consider any party who disagrees them on one subject "to moderate."

Like that "formidable" Libertarian Party is going to stop it?

*sigh* Read a book, and come back when you can argue your point.

Yeah, that's a pretty accurate assessment. Well said, too.

Do you like the amount of control the Gov. has now? Do you want more or less?

Depends on what area, certain areas I believe we need to be more centralized others I don't. But overall economically yes I want more control
