Here is a little something beyond the sound bytes and hoopla.

Make of it what you will. His speeches are nearly devoid of details, but he did put a few things down in writing that demand examination. News outlets are remiss on these kinds of things every time. They are almost never mentioned, let alone examined or discussed.
If Obama loses this time, maybe he can team up with the American Republic and run with Judah Ben-Hur for 2012!
Patriot of what?????
Good to see the sycophantic odes to Ron Paul have stopped. (That whole pesky disgusting racist thing...oops) Sorry to see they have been replaced with sycophantic odes to Barack Obama.
If you vote for someone because of their color that makes you a racist and an idiot. That holds true no matter what color the person is.
And what he proposes to do will likely result in economic disaster--assuming our legislators give him what he wants.
I say, why not? Let people who believe in these fairy tales have their way for a while. Reality is a harsh mistress.
This is the only man for the job. If the constitution means anything, go for Ron Paul. He has given more detail about the important issues to this country than all other candidates combined. He can and will fix all the things that idiot-coward BBBBush has broken.
'This is the only man for the job. If the constitution means anything, go for Ron Paul. '
Look idiot, much like you were in high school Ron Paul has been REJECTED.
GAME OVER, let it go.
I live in Illinois and this donothing has accomplished zero, zilch, nada, nothing,etc.
I will say this for the umpteenth time, if this guy has done zero in Illinois THAN WHAT DO YOU MORONS THINK HE CAN DO AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL?!?!
He gets his Curious George face plastered on Time, Newsweek, and other leftist magazines being proclaimed to be an answer to all our problems.
Why is he being promoted this way?
I will vote for Mitt Romney WHO HAS MADE MANY CHANGES, ACCOMPLISHMENTS, AND SUCCESS STORIES.
Romney has made a financial success of the Salt Lake City Olympics.
He erased a 3 BILLION DOLLAR DEFECIT IN LEFTIST Massachussetts WITHOUT RAISING TAXES, and than left the citizens with appm. a $32 million budget surplus.
He also erased a defecit in Utah, his home state, never raised taxes, and again left the people WITH A BUDGET SURPLUS!!
What has Obama done at anypoint, anywhere, at anytime except to plan to raise our taxes and coddle his islamic friends?
Romney HAS made positive changes and has not received a fart in our leftist media when it comes to thanks or positive compliments.
I guess you only get good feedback if you are non-white.
The idiots who vote for Obama shold tear up their voter cards and apologize to America and all the unborn who would be paying for many years having that goofball in the White House.
Again, Obama has accomplished NOTHING, but the US, leftist, pro-islamic media portrays him as if has cured all our problems.
How pathetic.
I was never one to be taken in by hype, but only desired to see RESULTS AND PRODUCTIVE ACCOMPLISHMENTS.
Obama provides nothing.
Hungarian Crusader
Since many of you were taken in by all the excess, absolute nonsensical, media hype pushing Obama these previous months let me ask you 1 question.
If I hype a carrot long enough on magazines, newspapers, the internet, TV, cable, and satellite television, repeating 'This carrot can institute true change we can believe in.' would you intellects vote for the carrot?
I think you would.
I have not seen anything more pathetic in US elections in my entire life.
Hungarian Crusader
Gee the hungry crusader is back.This time his ranting about a carot is supposed to serve as an argument that Obama means nothing .Never read anything so ridiculous poorly disguised as a logical argument.This sort of nonsense can be applied to anybody,with equal consequences.Nothing better to offer dear crusader ?Like 100.000 americans dying every year due lacl of proper health care,low standards of education,an enormous gap in the budget made by Bush.None of these real life problems include carrots .
You're slipping, Tonny. You failed to squeeze in something about neocons in that post.
Obama can certainly talk the talk - now if he can walk the walk - on to the White House!
What does your muslim Barak HUSSEIN Obama have to do with health care?
Have you read his plans on his website?
He has nothing but suggestions you dhimmi wannabee.
You dont challenge anything that I say as it is all true.
Obama has no record, no achievements, no accomplishments.
He has no corrective suggestions for the economy, the war, health care, social security, NOTHING!
Romney would had been the best as he has a record of CHANGE, SUCCESSES, BUDGET SURPLUSES, AND TAX FREEZES and no hoopla and hype.
Romeny has ALL accomplishments and the media here does not give him credit unless we count FOX News...thank heavan for them.
My example of the carrot was to make a clear point of how many idiots we have in this country who blindly vote FOR ANYONE OR ANYTHING on hype.
Now answer my question and tell me 1 ITEM THAT OSAMA-OBAMA HAS DONE THAT COULD BE CALLED AN ACCOMPLISHMENT.
You cant....he is worthless.
He should be driving a bus and nothing else.
when he does not agree with the topic.
He is a typical leftist who dances around the issues with jibberish.
Rather than addressing or rebuffing his antagonist, he jibs and jibes with insults and comments that have no relation to the topic at hand.
Tonny, what did Hungarian Crusader say that was wrong, incorrect, or even misleading?
Reviewing Romney, he wins hands down, over the newcomer Obama when it comes to financial leadership and proven results while in government.
It seems Romney has achieved all his victories without any tax hikes and tax hikes seem to be the bread and butter of Obama and his agenda.
Who wants to pay more taxes in America or anywhere in the world?
Obama could be a smashing social worker, teacher, paralegal, or even an assistant producer for the Oprah Winfrey show, but I see nothing more than that where he could excel.
Obama is no Kennedy, Lincoln, Reagan or anything in that field of history.
Obama is just simply Obama, a darling of the left-wing media.
That will not help lead America or help pay any of its bills.
Tonny, you need to educate and read both sides of the equation and not just rant pointlessly.
How the libnazis will pillory a person like Romney for his religous beliefs while leting Obama, who embraces a far more racist church philosophy, completely off the hook.
Then, there is the so called Kennedy comparisons:
Kenndy was:
A strong interventionist - Cuba, Bay of Pigs, Vietnam
Wanted lower taxes
Strong anti-communist
Promoted domestic spying - Marting Luther King
Now correct me if I'm wrong, but this sounds a lot like George Bush, not Barak Obama, right?
Give him time - at least he's got brains going for him.
...every time someone speaks to a candidates intellect, I'm reminded at how the press and libnazi literari have missed so badly on Bush. Here's a guy who manipulates them daily, with a 35% approval rating, getting his legislation for the war and rebates passed, while they insist he's the dumbest guy on the planet.
I'd agree with them except I'm waiting to discover, exactly, what subject he's so dumb about....certainly not politics.
I haven't seen or heard a better plan than that proposed by Ron Paul. You seem to be one of those who follow the hype and all the fluff these wanna-be candidates are throwing around; a waste of time and money. Ron Paul would give these useless, fence-straddling politicians the boot.
...we've already given Ron paul the boot. The funeral already happened. Where were you?
...it's the constant pass the sheep backing this lemon keep giving him, day after day.
He gets compared to Kennedy, yet he has virtually nothing in common with him.
He gets lauded by the environmentalists - but he has a very cozy relationship with America's (and Illinois) Coal producers.
He has yet to stake out positions on everything from the war to social security - but his sheep-like followers just jump over the cliff for him.
Seriously, if you can be a democrat and get these folks to love you, you could be George Wallace and get elected.
