What is the point in writing in Ron Paul if you have essentially the same guy running that is actually on the ballot

It would more be a vote on principle. The media has ignored him and said he has no chance. It would be my little way of giving them the middle finger! I'm not an idiot, at that point there is no chance of either of them winning it.

Ignorance I would say. The statute of forces agreement was signed by Bush. That agreement was what dictated our withdrawal from Iraq. Obama did nothing to modify it.

Agreed. I will either write in Ron Paul, or vote for Gary Johnson.

I was unaware of this. That will definitely affect my decision then. I just researched, and I found a quote by Johnson saying that they would get $90 million in 2016! Thanks for the heads up!

Just like whoever you put for your choice. On an individual basis, nobody cares about your own vote. If you pick the lesser of the two evils, then your vote is worth even less. If you are ok with having your vote railroa

I was informed by another Redditor about the Libertarian funding in 2016 if Gary Johnson get 5% of the vote, so now that will most likely be what I do.

I think he might be lying. Nobody puts cookies in their pants pocket.
Replying to CosmicDustbunny · I used to say this, and being a middle-class white girl made me doubt I'd ever have a reason to say otherwise. Then a few years ago I got pulled over and told I had run a red ligh…
I was driving down the freeway on Thanksgiving one year, going the speed limit. There was a cop about half a mile in front of me. Suddenly he slammed on his brakes. I changed lanes and passed him, then he pulled me over.
Replying to slybrows · He should have said that it's already de-criminalized if you're white *in Chicago*. The cops here are pretty. fucking. racist.
All the Chicago cops are pretty? Damn!

While I agree, the poverty line here in the US is slightly higher than many countries. I've seen things in Egypt, Mexico, India, Africa etc. that are on a whole other scale.
Replying to [deleted] · This. Hell, my grandfather was in the hospital after a stroke for three weeks before passing and his total bill for everything was ~$17,000,000. Yep, that's not exorbitant at all…
While I agree medical costs are out of control, I have a hard time believing that your grandfather's 3 weeks stay cost $17 million!

This is what I was thinking. Perhaps the cycles will shift or change entirely, given our new ability to transfer knowledge faster. Why do the cycles always have to be the same, or happen at all, regardless of innovation
