On one hand I feel sorry for Ron Paul supporters because Kucinich is viewed as being a UFO siting kook.

On the other hand, perceptions of a candidate as being a kook hasn't stopped Ron Paul supporters......

So I'd say this endorsement is a wash.

Oh geez. Please, no. I couldn't take this. This would be worse than when Badnarik (LP candidate) decided to march in the gay pride parade.

Re: Kucinich to endorse Paul

Maybe the "paulbearers" can start a write-in campaign after Dr Paul is eliminated as a candidate for the GOP? Who knows, he might get a few hundred votes that way. That'll show 'em!

Re: Kucinich to endorse Paul

Sorry to inform you, but Kucinich has already endorsed Obama. He's told his people to vote for Obama, so that's an endorsement enough even if he hasn't publicly endorsed him yet.

Frankly, if he had been, I believe he'd now be the front-runner.

The jewsmedia only allows kosher, politically correct candidates to get elected president. The jews decide and almost all jews dispise Ron Paul.
Maybe he would have been given a fair shot if he could have raised more money fraudulently through WN websites....if only those fucking idiots who donated to his campaign would have laundered a little a faster he may stll have a leg to stand on. Shame for you that you can't rely on the likes of Black and his cronies who run these sorts of websites to be more effecient criminals...for the rest of the law abiding citizens i guess its a relief that White Nationalists are so inept and incompetant. Btw none of thise was aimed at you, just a generalisation of white supremecist assholes, not you.

Actually, Ron Paul's proposals are extremely modest in view of the freakin debt.
Well i'm sure if Black&co get indicted and then convicted that all the fines they'll have to pay along with court fees (not to mention jail time they'll do) will help reduce the deficit some, a first time use for FEC regulations i guess.

I wonder if the Bush voters are interested in accepting that debt? or at least part of it. Personal responsibility, you know...

It won't matter at all. They're polls are so low between them, you could add them up & they still wouldn't finish in the running.

Re: Kucinich to endorse Paul

[quote=Oreo;1148938]
EDIT 2: Again, I see that I might be breaking some forum rules. Let me quote what Oreo said:
Quote:
I watched the entire debate & saw Ron Paul answer two questions, the entire night.
I then gave examples of questions Paul was asked. He was asked way more than 2 and, of course, he answered all of them. Oh, I also posted a youtube link, showing Paul answer the questions.

So, that is the origin of my inappropriate "liar" comment. I have edited the post to bring it within forum rules.

It wouldn't matter. Paul will still have zero chance of being president.
