how competitive Ron Paul is
It's not the 'man' himself, he has got to have the worst supporters I've ever seen.
I'm a strict constructionist, myself. However, RP is not going to get my vote. I am so turned off by the back-biting and the impolite discourse of his followers that even Obama appears more cordial.
One of the great things about a forum is the intelligent discussion you can have with people who like the same hobbies and ideas you share. I cannot say that about RP supporters.
In talking to them I feel like I've taken a shiny yo-yo away from a spoiled brat. What they are too immature to grasp is that I have a vote, a secret ballot, that is cast to secure ellectoral votes in my home state.
I am not a troll, an enemy of the state, a sell-out, a Honda driver or a communist if I listen to and study another candidate. It's called being "an informed voter."
The quickest way to loose both my interest and my support is to start whining, wool-gathering, nitpicking and digging up insignificant historical wrinkles like Perot's stolen votes. It's not a stolen vote, it's a willful cast ballot by a citizen.
Yikes, if your understanding of The Constitution is that poor, you're not really a strict constructionist.
