Ron Paul is out of the race.

I back Obama because I feel that John McCain, like all Republicans, has the ultimate goal of becoming the next Hitler.

I know. But he was at least opposed to the more extreme forms of collectivism. Orwell was a good author, that's why I chose him as my avatar. Doesn't necessarily mean I match his beliefs exactly- he was an atheist and I'm a Christian.

I know that Paul has no chance. That doesn't change the fact that he is the best candidate running.

McCain scares me too. I'm afraid he'll start a couple more wars and push our military to the point of collapse- it's already overextended as it is now. But I don't trust Obama on economic issues.

Dr. Jay L. Wile PhD Nuclear Chemistry.


Edit: unless there is someone else worth voting for, I'm voting for Dr. Jay as a write-in. His book, Reason Faith: the scientific case for Christianity is one of the main reasons I am a creationist. I respect him for his honesty and academic integrity and have had good communications with him. He doesn't put up with nonsense and has a strict adherence to what is correct to the best of his knowledge.

Truly though, these current candidates look like they were hand picked to appeal to liberals.

I would rather you take the presidency, at your age of 19, then for Barack to. I don't believe he has the functioning competence of the average 19-year-old. :|

The only thing scary about John McCain is his liberal policies. Sounds like he's got a handle on how to win in Iraq, but he's off on pretty much every other area. But that's still a competence score of 1 for him, versus 0 for B. Hussein Osama and Hillarious.

That's the only thing scary about him? You obviously haven't seen this video.

And yeah, he's really got a handle on how to win on Iraq- just stay for a hundred years!

Clinton by default. But as for people not in the race, I think I'd rather have Bloomberg or Gore.

McCain. While I don't necessarily agree with all of his views, he is the best out of the remaining three.

Obama is inexperienced and naive, it is painfully starting to show.
Clinton....too many bad things to list about Clinton.
