No. No need to creep them out. Start with this great 2 min video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=as3AYVzWmOI

I got into it with some yo-yo on YouTube. The guy was just so ill-informed, it made me want to puke.

I explained to him in so many ways that Obama can't be really serious about change unless he addresses the Fed. I don't think I got through, though.

I'm glad you're having luck with an Obamanite. My friend loves RP, but thinks the way to stop McCain is Obama >_>;; His states primary is open so he can choose whomever. He keeps spouting this "Young Prince" crap about him, and how things will be so much better with someone YOUNG in the Whitehouse >_____>

i am feeling the urge to do likewise. as much as i want a RP presidency, i do not want a McCain presidency.

Yes, but in the Primary? I might consider him later, but not for the primary.

Whenever talking with Democrats/Socialist far Lefters.. I always bring Mike Gravel into the discussion on the Fed. Gravel is wildly against it, and Kucinich has just gotten on board against it (not sure if he was previously)

I used to be a Barack supporter. I voted for him for Senate and even donated to him early in this presidential campaign. I'll never go back (far more educated now) but I write to him, his wife, and his campaign about once a week. Topics mostly include the Federal Reserve, CFR, & PetroDollar issues. It's hard when EVERYBODY around you is an Obama supporter. It sucks breaking it to people that he's a CFR member now. I also write my Rep (Jan Schakowsky.... I know) about the same issues. I keep them current and I know they're required to read them.

There is no difference between Obama and McCain.

Quantized, any time you start to feel the urge to vote for Obama, just take a glance at you own footer, and you will have your answer.:o

You know, I think you're right about that. McCain is at least truthful about being at war for 100 years. Obama lies through his teeth. He's one of those guys who'll say anything to win. He's very skilled, too. He was trained as a debater, so he knows how to win an argument and how to win over people through spin and manipulation. This guy's a master at it.

I would never vote for McCain OR Obama. If I can't write Ron in and he doesn't run third party, I'll vote Libertarian.
