If some of threads here are any indication then a few videos may well be all you need to get elected.

I just want an honest and honorable man (or woman) in the White House and as long as he/she is that, whether the motivation comes from Atheism, Mormonism, the Buddha or the Moon god; I'm okay with that.

You are right and it's a shame how bigoted many people still are. Apparently we are still a long way from judging someone based on the content of their character.

I'm truly very glad your wife is okay but you really need to have a serious conversation about how she should have handled this.

Well, so many people hate Mormons that I'm surprised they don't some Muslim's in their group as well.

Gary Johnson; the life-long Republican and typical politician saying whatever it takes to get elected: [media=] [/media]

Really classy poster...funny how some seem to have nothing better to do than make up anti-Romney pictures and videos but I guess lashing out is to be expected from some when you candidates have no chance of prevailing in the election.

Really classy move...probably motivated by bigotry toward Mormons. It's just about as classy as the ones who seem to have nothing better to do than make up anti-Romney pictures and videos but I guess lashing out is to be expected from some when you have no chance of prevailing in the election.

As far as I know, the only thing Romney did as governor that could be labeled "socialist" was MA health care but as I understand the history of that legislation, there was no attempt to nor does it go around the private health care industry - whereas Obama has said multiple times that he wants and Obamacare will push everyone into a single-payer, universal health care system which will kill private health care insurance. What I know about Romney is that he's proven himself in business and that his actions show me that he is a capitalist at heart. That gives me reason to believe that he will seek solutions to our problems based in private, free-market capitalism rather than government and that he'll surround himself with those who think the same way. What I believe about Romney (based in part on the lack or any evidence to the contrary and also on personal experience with those of the Morman faith) is that he is an honest, principled man who will at least attempt to do what is best for the country. Whether he will "man enough" for the job? Who knows - how can we actually know that about anyone until they get there...I am just convinced that he is a far better choice than the commie in office now and the only choice who actually has the ability to win the election.

At least for this election, the answer is easy; the reason not to vote third party or for anyone other than Romney is to ensure that nothing is done that makes it easier for the communist to remain in office and finish the job he's started to fundamentally transform America by... Granting amnesty to criminals who come here illegally, stay here illegally and work here illegally and costing taxpayers billions of $$$ in public assistance, draining our educational system of funds and filling up our prisons AFTER they've killed someone or done something nearly as bad while concurrently and purposely refusing to stop the invasion of illegals crossing our borders every day. Forcing religious institutions to pay for things their faith is diametrically opposed to Eradicating the work for welfare system that successfully moved almost 50% of the prior recipients off the welfare rolls; turning it back into a way of life for people. Spending a $Trillion a year we don't have by borrowing and/or printing it - those chickens ARE going to come home to roost and it isn't going to be pleasant Socializing our healthcare system so that it's as bad as the rest of the world and which is totally unaffordable even if it were a better system Socializing major industry Killing the coal, oil and other domestic energy production Will go after our firearms at every opportunity (you know, those silly folks to cling to their guns and their religion) Will appoint two or three for four supreme court justices who are just as socialist/communist as he is Refuses to prosecute voter fraud and intimidation conducted by the Black Panthers but goes to war with any state that opposes a federal program/mandate I could go on but I think the point is clear. Voting for anyone other than Romney does nothing to get this America-hating communist out of office and may, to some extent at least, serve to keep him in office...why would I need any other reason to vote for Romney???

I already have, Mitt Romney

I give out plenty of reputation points, + and - 1s...so what? When you post an insulting, ant-Romney "F*CK TEH BILL OF RIGHTS" pic is it really a surprise that someone might take offense?

Actually Mr Plank, before your post (above) I had given you one "-1" (for the anti-Romney pic) but hey, if you want to have a "-1" war we can do that; at least it will provide a bit of a diversion.

It was just my (apparently failed) attempt at humor.

True. To be a bit more clear, what has gotten a bit pedantic is that they get posted as if a little video is a reasonable substitute for substantive content - it's almost as if we've lost the capacity for original thought and dialogue so we get three-minute videos instead. It might be different if any of these videos actually had something new to say or presented a new viewpoint but they don't.

I'm sure money is part of it...I mean, spend enough money and you can probably make a significant number of people believe night is day and up is down. Maybe I'm in the minority as I actually know what I believe and I know I'm a conservative and not an libertarian!

No; I'd just be mad at you. ROTFLMAO

I can't address the world media or what politicians pay for to put ads on media...I thought that would have been apparent.

You may be right but I think it goes a lot further than just Obama and I wasn't just thinking of this particular election year. Aside form the occasional local race now and then when has a libertarian candidate ever gotten serious votes? I don't think very many if any...they've certainly not garnered any significant on a nationwide basis...I really think the libertarian viewpoint doesn't garner the votes because the view just doesn't resonate with very many people. However, I don't know of any way to prove that and I don't know of any detailed study of the issue either.

No one forces you reply to my posts (posts not directed to or referencing you) yet you do...funny how that works.

I don't think he really needs a professional resume writer...there are plenty of good sites on the net that can help him craft a good resume. Resume's are about 2% of the job hunt process...any decent job you apply for today is going to require you fill out detailed info online (unless it's some mom and pop type operation).

I bet you would be wrong.If you were right, the Libertarian party candidates would not be a perpetual also-ran in most elections.

I would love to see a moratorium on ALL political videos until after the election - I've see so many touting RP/GJ that I would have a difficult time voting for either of them even if I otherwise would have. I don't purport to speak for Dale Carnegie but I think he would probably think that beating people over the head with these videos is not the way to influence people to your candidate.

I'm a very proud non-libertarian...I'm a conservative. It's my opinion/observation that conservatives and libertarians share some, perhaps even many views but certainly not all and the views where they are at odds tend to be significant (and irreconcilable). I think one of the major reasons why true libertarians have never gained real ground politically; there just aren't enough of them. I would also suggest that if you remove all labels of any kind and survey people and their views, issue by issue, I believe you will find that far more would wind up being identified as conservative, not libertarians or liberal/progressive.

No doubt, expiration dates become progressively less important the further into an EOTWAWKI situation. In any case, I think the Twinkies will always be made by somebody even if it isn't Hostess
