2008 Presidential Candidates: Ron Paul
Party: None
Abortion: Leave it to the states.
Affirmative Action: Shouldn't be needed. Go off qualifications, nothing else.
Alternative Fuels: Allow the free market to decide.
Capital Punishment: Support
Censorship: Abolish FCC. You don't like what's on, change it.
Cuba: Lift embargo now. China and Vietnam are communist and we trade with them.
Current Administration (Bush/Cheney): Worst in histroy, but the current problems are all the politicians fault.
Current Congress: Part of the problem. Get rid of them all.
Education: Abolish the Dept. of Education. Let schools teach how to live and survive. Not how to be indoctorinated.
Electoral College: It's a good system to ensure all states are treated fairly.
Federal Debt: We need to drastically lower spending and start paying off the debt NOW. We spend 25% of the Federal Budget paying the interest on this debt. Paying it off would allow us to be far better off. If we don't pay it off, we'll eventually go bankrupt and huge problems will arise.
Flag Burning: See First Amendment.
Foreign Policy: Non Interventionism. We're not the world police, nor does there need to be.
Free Trade: Best solution. No treaties that threaten our sovereignity though.
Gay Rights: Seperation of church and state. It's a non-issue. What Adam and Steve do is none of my business.
Global Warming: I think it's overly alarmist and completely unproven. I think we should be more environmentally friendly though.
Globalization: Completely against.
Gun Control: Abolish the assault weapons ban. It violates the second amendment.
Healthcare: Get rid of the FDA. The free market will decide what drugs are bad for you by not purchasing them.
Illegal Immigration: Stop it. Send the national guard to the borders. Fine any employer who hires illegals extremely harshly. Fine any land lord who rents to illegals. Deport any illegals caught committing a crime. Require a citizenship check to access any public accommodations to prevent illegals from using any of it.
Marijuana Legalization: Legalize it. And abolish the War on Drugs. Marijuana is the most useful plant on earth. Plastics can be made from it's oils as well as an alternative fuel. Paper and clothing can be made that is thousand times more durable and more eco-friendly. The buds are a safer pain killer than anything on the market. No one has ever OD on pot. Don't believe the propaganda. They do what is best for them, not us.
Media Bias: Private companies. See 1st amendment.
School Prayer: If the kids want to pray at recess, at lunch, or during breaks that's just fine. No prayer during class.
Separation of Church and State: Should be absolute.
Social Security: Needs to be eventually phased out or privatized.
Stem Cell Research: Let the free market fund it. Do not federally ban it, but don't fund it with tax payer's dollars.
The Constitution: We need to follow it more closely. We also need to pass an amendment to get rid of birthright citizenship unless a parent is one as well.
United Nations: We should lower our funding of the U.N. to a more fair level.
War in Iraq: Pull out as soon as possible to do safely.
Welfare: Aboliosh completely. Most on welfare are just taking advantage of the free help. These shouldn't be helped.
Wiretapping: Should only be done on a U.S. citizen with a warrant.
We as citizens have an obligation to keep our government in check. Failure to do so leads to tyranny. Revolt when it is necessary. And it is almost is there.
