Bump!
It's now almost 3 months later. What's everyone thinking? I'm def going Obama (and I'll be turning 18 in October, so I'll be able to vote!)
now that the dust has settled since this thread was started back in january, i'm voting McCain.
Obama's policies are abysmal enough, now you have to toss in the fact he is flipflopping on everything. the only change he brings is what he says today versus what he said a week ago. (his latest flipflop is offshore drilling. while i support offshore drilling, absolutely NOTHING has changed between obama's support for it the other day, and him condemning McCain for it a few weeks ago.)
McCain has his problems, but at least he is straight forward. he said he wouldn't support ethanol subsidies when he was in rural america, proving that he will say where he stands as opposed to what he thinks will get him elected.
Obama on the other hand changes his platform based on who he is speaking to. the only thing that doesn't change is that he is going to give everyone a massive tax hike. (not just the rich as alot of his supporters seem to think)

Ron Paul wants to abolish the Federal Reserve and bring back the gold standard. Did Bush ever propose anything that dramatic? Bush is a puppet and a stumbling buffoon.
vader never compared ron paul's policies to bush's. he compared a part of their personalities. he said the following:

another thing is i feel he shares the same character flaw as george bush, he is unwavering from his opinions, despite changing circumstances, by the end of a term as president i woul dbet paul will be as unpopular and ineffective as bush
i do agree with vader that ron paul knows what he wants to do in the whitehouse, and he wouldn't be willing to take any conflicting opinions into consideration.
