If you vote for Ron Paul, or vote and leave President blank, they will have a number showing how many bothered to vote, yet rejected the candidates on the ballot. Seems like a vote of no confidence to me.

Okay. After seeing this I'm not sure we gain anything by having him get in the debates. That was just retarded. The only reason he cares about the LRA is a bunch of young trendies told him to.

Agree completely. HOWEVER being allowed in the debates is just fair play. We should always be about pushing for fair play, no matter who the candidate/party.

He was in the Debates. I watched him with an open mind at the time,, being the first I had seen of him personally.
I was thoroughly unimpressed. And I base that on what he said.. What I just saw here only confirms that.
Liberty is based on Principles,, not on utility.
Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

Oh sure I'm all for fair play. I didn't think it was right for the GOP to keep Alan Keys out of debates back in 2004. And I think the socialists and greens and everyone else should be allowed in the general election debates. But as far as moving the liberty ball forward....well if Gary Johnson got on the national debate stage and said some crap like this it would make people take the liberty movement less serious than not having him there at all. I knew he was weak on foreign policy but had no idea it was this bad. Strike force to "take out" the LRA? Doesn't he know that the LRA can't even outfight some teenagers with bows and arrows?

In Michigan, write-in votes are not counted unless the candidate registers. Writing in Ron Paul has the same effect as not voting. I might not decide what I am going to do until I am in the booth. Last time I voted for Baldwin, largely because Paul endorsed him, but also because his views most closely represented mine.
If I bother to vote this year, I'll just write in Donald Duck or something.
