    i gave that answer.

    The fact that Kucinich didn't have the balls to endorse a friend who he knows to be an honest and respectable public servant, and instead chose to play safe for his career by endorsing ole barack only speaks to Kucinich's character, not to Paul's.
    I agree it speaks to his character to endorse who he felt was the best option.

    I'm with you! A Kucinich endorsement does not sway what I see.

    Had I felt trapped into voting Republicrat or Demican, I might have sat this one out. Instead, I joined the Libertarian Party because it espouses a 16 page, single space , platform ( as of 2006) that most closely mirrors my views. Definitively a breath of fresh air for me. I'll b voting Libertarian, though I do wish Dr. Mary Ruwart was on the ticket.

    Isn't he up for re-election? Usually not endorsing your party's candidate for president is not seen as a good strategic move for re-election. ;)

    when you don't vote, you vote.....

    you just don't have control as to where your vote goes.

    you should vote or you should not ever post on moving train again.

    if you don't participate your opinion means nothing.

    it's your free ticket to bitch and complain for the next four years.

    in my opinion if you don't vote you shouldn't bitch.

    Where does one pick up a "fucking wheel"? I'm assuming the same place one would find "ass beads"...
