If the election isn't rigged by Diebold, he has every chance of winning
the Republican nomination. He could beat Hilary if the campaign was run
properly.

I would say he is right, we do need to get end social security, but the
problem is there haven't been a whole lot of better options. My wife is
a teacher and they don't pay social security, they pay into a teacher
retirement fund, more like a pension, and it works for them.

And as far as taking away a woman's right to choose, well the whole
Planned Parenthood operation is an old eugenics operation anyway. I am a
bit biased, as my wife is going to be induced tomorrow with our first
child, but I have never been convinced that any woman has a "right" to
kill anyone. Having seen my son in the womb at 3 months, I cannot fathom
how anybody can think of a fetus as anything but alive. Ron Paul was an
OB/Gyn for 20 years (I think), and as a doctor he, more than anyone
else, would understand that.

I don't know about the rest of you but my vote is for Ron Paul for
President in 2008.
