Tancredo is like a nasty word to people in my area of Colorado. He won't make the Republican nomination anyway, but he is a white-elitist loser, in my humble opinion.

I won't post my list of Presidential candidates, I wouldn't want to reveal myself for the flaming liberal that everyone in the political forum already thinks I am.

I dont really like Newt though. A mix of Ron Paul and Fred Thompson would be okay with me. But I dont really like any One canidate alone.

Well, since I am a pacifist and supporter of individual liberties, I guess it is really no surprise who my top candidate is:



Winner: Dennis Kucinich (91%)

War authorization: One of the few in Congress to vote against the Iraq War authorization. Consistently criticizes Bush's management of the war.

Security/liberties: Consistently voted against the PATRIOT Act.

Capital punishment: He would eliminate the use of the death penalty for federal crimes.


Runner up: Barack Obama (87%)



I guess I'm probably one of the only people on this board to have Kucinich on my list, much less on the top :shrug:

 

[Agent 0659]

Never heard of him!

But I dont really like any One canidate alone.

Guiliani
Obama
Edwards

I put a high priority on public appearance (i.e. communication skills, acting Presidential, etc.) which would skew my numbers up and down for these. For instance, after watching and listening to Dodd, I would have a hard time voting for him if I had to. Also hoping I don't have to look at Gore as a choice again, and I just don't get jazzed about Kucinich as a "main person" to represent the country, although I respect his views and professionalism a great deal. I've always been interested in what Biden brings to the table, but don't think he will ever grab broad public appeal. Still leaning towards Clinton at this point, I think. Just can't feel strongly for Obama or Edwards, but could vote for them if they were the candidate - at least for now.
