    Haha where did you get that picture?

    EDIT: I'm watching this and some of these questions/answers are fucking dumb/useless.

    damn, I think I missed it.


    I'm posting this before I click the link.


    Edit: agreed the questions are mostly useless, and the act of "war is the only answer" is getting really old, these guys would rather bitch about how they think they won veitnam rather then looking at the issue of iraq.

    I laughed when John McCain claimed that the troops in Iraq are begging to stay so that they can "win".

    Don't forget that the US is also winning in Iraq. McCain should be nowhere near a podium.

    yeah he got cornered a couple times and had to talk fast to avoid it basically.. Seems slimy..

    And I couldn't get over how they talk about "the gays".. bahaha They showed old tapes of them pro gay, then asked them again and now they deny it, and say no gays in the military.. haha fuckin 2 sided pricks, they openly say whatever they need to at the time to get a few claps..

    go paul.. the guy tells it like it is, and the other guys shake their heads and grumble whenever he tries to talk... he's got a steep hill to climb...

    Every time Giulani was asked a question he would refer back to New York and talk about how much good he did there. Alright, we get it.

    The gun and jesus/god questions were hilarious. You would think there are more important issues surrounding the US, but no, people just want to talk about guns and 'What would Jesus do?".

    I wish they would of talked more about economics and foreign policy, taxes or other important issues.

    Either way, Ron Paul FTMFW!

    Ron Paul would have buried all of them in a discussion about economics, monetary systems and fiscal policy.

    Exactly. I don't think he'll get elected though. Too smart and his ideas are too out there. I.e. Abolishing the fed, IRS, etc...

    Too many invested interests in those structures.

    absolutely, he seemed to be the only person on the stage willing to take a stance on touchy subjects, while i don't agree with everything he has to say, i do respect him for doing such, even if it is exactly why he will never be elected president.

    He was the best candidate back in 2001 but he seems to have lost his way since then. If it hadn't been for Karl Rove's douchebaggery, he would probably be president.

    That's why he won't win.

    I don't think in all of US history, a presidential candidate has had as much foreign support as Ron Paul.... that alone is probably hurting him lol.

    I'm to socialist to agree with Paul 100%, but right now, he is the only one that has a shred of credibility.

    Ghouliani is a disgrace as a human.

    I noticed a few of the morons took more "somewhat" Ron Paul lessons and toned down their rhetoric....

    Honestly, Ghouliani is like GWB's re-incarnated as Cheney. Fear Mongering scum.

    if the world were to vote for the us president, ron paul might have a chance, but in america, republicans won't vote for him becuase he doesn't want to "win the war!!!" (what are they trying to win again?), he could never get the democrat vote, and an indie won't win in america.

    what does everyone think of his odds as a VP?

    There are a number of Democrats changing their affiliation in order to vote for Ron Paul. It should be interesting when the primary votes start happening because those voters aren't included in the current polls.

    As for VP it would be VERY unlikely. Seriously who else on the stage would take him as a running mate. Paul is against most of the platforms of the other candidates. There was some rumour of a Kucinich/Paul ticket but that would require one of them winning a nomination or going as an independent.

    Giuliani looked like a complete fool last night. Reminded me of an arrogant American version of Stelmach.

    Romney is still a slimy politician to me. Also the fact that he is a Mormon will kill him once the Christians start voting.

    Huckabee seems "nice" and relatively genuine but he has yet to deal with any hard hitting questions. I have yet to hear his stance on the war in Iraq or anything more controversial.

    McCain is obsessed with the war and the war effort. He seems to think that war is the only way to prove your loyalty and honour in the US. Seriously Popeye, its time to give it a rest. Comparing Iraq and Saddam to WWII and Hitler was a moronic and ignorant comment from him last night.

    Thompson is desperate and has already started the attack ads. Seemed to be lost without his cue cards as well.

    romney just seems like the definition of a slimey politician, he dodged every question thrown at him. mccain is hopeless, no one will win this time around with "we can win this war, our troops told me so." I can't really take thompson seriously since i've seen him on law & order, dunno why. Giuliani is trying waaay to hard and it just doesn't seem like he believes what he's saying. the rest just kind of blended into the background (aside from ron paul).

    I watched it, mainly because I live here now. But what is the USA winning in Iraq? They're not because there's nothing to win. The war, as far as I know, was brought about (besides to make money for arms dealers and steel manufacturers) to bring Saddam out of power, so once that was done it was over. I'm pretty sure they're just over there now to help Iraq rebuild and introduce a new government system while simultaneously training a peacekeeping regime. Iraq itself is pretty good, they welcome the troops. But the surrounding countries are causing all the trouble, posing as Iraqis to cause trouble for the troops because they think their countries will be invaded next.

    I liked when one of the YouTube viewers asked about the border policies and the introduction of the North American Union. I think it's a good point because if they're going to be deleting the borders, why spend money on finding illegal aliens?
