1. Ron Paul reminds me of
the guy who puts up homemade signs in his yard complaining about some problem he had with a government agency. Whenever I see him, I am reminded of those guys who put a hundred bumper stickers all over their cars and fly the flag from both antennae.
Cranky and nuts.

2. One reason for not voting at all...
Both parties are totally corrupt and this fraud of a democracy is rigged in favour of the 1%, voting only give legitimacy to a process and politicians that deserve none.

3. bullshit excuse for not taking part
A democratic republic is not a spectator sport. You know goddamn full well that had McCain won the 2008 election, we would be a in full on depression, with no end in sight. Want to talk about "rigged"? Let the republicans get their hands on the white house for the next eight years.

the 2008 election was the first election this century for president, that was not heavily overshadowed by voter fraud and cheating. Grow some balls.

5. None are more hopelessly enslaved...
"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free"

Both parties represent the interests of the 1%, most people have this figured out by now, this political process is as real as professional wrestling, but it's entertainment for some people I guess, and keeps the slaves willing participant in their own enslavement.

7. Not voter fraud.
There has been plenty of cheating but not voter fraud.

8. Your's is the number one reason.
He also wants to rid the nation of the "burden" of social security and medicare.

The only thing Ron Paul is right about is our foreign entanglements.
