CNN reported on TV that most Obama's fans do not know how he stand on issues.

Unbelievable. He is a fabricated celebrity that people go goo goo ga ga over, but they have no idea what socialist freedom-suppressing things he will do as president, but they cheer him for uttering the superficial words "I am for change".

Makes me ill that the hordes that treat him like a rock star have no idea why he would make a good president or why he would be a disaster, they just "like him."

Don't these people know he wants to NUKE Iran preemptively??

A total media fabricated candidate.

They are Democrats, what do you expect. Of course, I don't expect much from Bush Republicans either.

Change in your pocket maybe, instead of dollars.

He's pro invasion of privacy.

Pro Patriot act.

Pro continued military presence in Iraq.

Pro-invasion of Iran.

Pro discarding the constitution and invading countries at the whim of the president, instead of declaring wars via congress.

Pro-preemptive war against Iran.

Pro expansion of our world-wide military empire.

Pro foreign aid that perpetuates US hatred around the world.

Pro entangling alliances.

Pro managed trade.

Pro economic interventionism.

He offers no solution to paying for more of this aggressiona and paying for more of the welfare state.

His popularity makes me feel ill.

Hey the people of California elected Arnold becasue he was a movie star. Most didn't have a clue what he stood for, including himself. Fred Thompson another former actor was elected a Senator of Tennessee despite the fact few knew what he stood for as well. There really should be some sort of test of what are the major issues a candidate endorses before a person is allowed to vote for that person. Voting for a person becasue Oprah, MSM, or the clergy endorses them is idiotic. It is high time for Americans to wake up and start thinking for themselves. Until Americans wake up and do this then there is no hope of electing a person like Ron Paul. And all of this is only assuming that we have fair elections anyway, which IMO is very much in doubt.

We face an incredible uphill struggle to change this country and it won't be easy. But we must do it no matter what the cost becasue if we fail then the whole world will suffer becasue of it, especially Americans.

Issues, Obama? I've never heard anything from him but for platitudes and rhetoric.

Basically he stands for "moving America forward", whatever that means.

Why does he always forget to complete that sentence?

"Moving America forward into Global Socialist Tyranny"

Obama is charismatic and all, but when Ron Paul says "This movement is about the freedom message, not about me, it is about the message not the person."

Obama's followers don't even know what he stands for. His movement in the polls is about the man's charisma, not about his stance on the issues.

2008 will decide what is more important. What the candidate will do and what change he will actually bring, or about the superficial.

[HOLLYWOOD]

I think that stat is probably the same for all the Candidates... EXCEPT RON PAUL!

Just look at all the MORONs that call in every morning on C-SPAN's WASHINGTON JOURNAL...

[Paulitician]

Well duh. Most people support a candidate for personality and such, not the issues. But that reporting is obviously propaganda. Why are they singling out Obama? Same can be said for Hillary, Mitt, Giuliani, Edwards etc.

[ChickenHawk]

This explains why Obama supporter are the easiest to convert to Ron Paul. If they knew where he stood on the issues and still supported him there is no way you could convert them. This also indicates that his support is likely very soft.

[lemnad]

I heard that too. I just shook my head and laughed. Hopefully a lot of them start actually researching the candidate that they choose to support.

[Matt Collins]

Two words:

PERSONALITY MARKETING!

[Andrew-Austin]

This needs to be on DIGG, and when it is put up, we will have to counter the Obama-twerps who digg it down.
