i hope that the majority of RP supporters do NOT want Dennis Kucinich as VP when RP wins the nomination. do these DK touters know what he stands for?! BIG ASS GOVERNMENT! against the war, good. for civil liberties, good. thats about it folks. if the majority do support DK, i have been fooled by RP supporters.

There are some who do seem to want Kucinich for VP.

However, most of us realize that while he is a nice guy, he is a big government socialist and not at all like President Paul.

That's the same argument they will use against Ron Paul for excluding him from the next debate.

RP wouldn't pick DK, so the subject is moot.

Not everyone here treats "socialist" like a dirty word. I'm personally voting for Ron Paul primarily on character and foreign policy. The political philosophy of libertarianism definitely intrigues me, and I can see the arguments in favor of it when compared to larger government type systems, but I can also see arguments in favor of other systems. Some are more idealistic, others more practical. Some are a strange mix of idealism and pragmatism; I consider libertarianism to fit into this category. And somewhat due to the general difficulties faced with implementing idealistic systems, I don't worship libertarianism like some people seem to. But it still sounds pretty good. However, I wouldn't be completely opposed to giving some forms of socialism a chance either.
