I would never vote for him because I'll never vote for anyone that associates themselves with the Republican party. He'll probably get bounced from it and wind up running as a third party candidate and probably a strong one. The Republicans want to distance themselves from him but they're not going to get anyone in the White House this round anyway. The money people know that and are backing Hillary since she corporate shill too.
And for Shemp I've heard Ron Paul say things that Shemp has jumped on me for saying here. I would not entirely say he is in Shemp's corner. He does appeal to some liberals here because just as Vaj says he is his own man. Most all the other candidates are front men/women for big money. That pisses me off enough to want to see the whole planet socialist for the next 1000 years and that's probably the only way it will be around in a 1000 years. The money people have abused their power and need to pay for it. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
