I am probably voting for Barr.
Neither of the mainstream candidates shares my political views. McCain is definitely closer, but I don't agree with a lot of his stances and don't want a hardcore conservative VP either.
Obama is just horrible in my opinion. Sure he has a great image, is a wonderful speaker, and all, but I despise his political stances, for the most part. He has Joe "Banning guns is an idea whose time has come" Biden trying to claim they support the 2nd Amendment. The whole "Let's spread the wealth" via government force idea doesn't sit well with me. A "constitutional scholar" claiming "...just because you have an individual right does not mean that the state or local government can't constrain the exercise of that right..." scares the crap out of me! So, I have this guaranteed right, but the government is allowed to take it away...?! He stated he wants to slow the development of future weapons systems (thanks buddy, we really like fighting on equal terms with our enemies!) Plus a host of others.

There is at least a slim chance he won't be as antagonistic, patronising, imperialistic and needlessly tension-raising. It's a slim chance but it's the only chance we've got...Kmarion wrote:

You mean like making off the cuff remarks like attacking Pakistan? Only thing I'll cede in your post is that he is "slim chance".CameronPoe wrote:

Well for a start Obama has been consistently more conciliatory than McCain on foreign affairs and seems to be more into global 'parity of esteem'. Another thing he's got over McCain is that he isn't a member of the most fiscally irresponsible party possibly on the planet. At the end of the day it's about the lesser of evils.DBBrinson1 wrote:

He was wrong about the troop surge. He was wrong on the Georgia conflict. He has ties to a Kenyan leader involved in ethnic cleansing. Sorry War ain't cheap, especially when you have to use fancy laser guided shit so as to minimize the civilian casualties.CameronPoe wrote:

I think it was Biden who said it would have the opposite effect.DBBrinson1 wrote:

Cam my point is that both the candidates are similar in regards to foreign policy. The real deviations come on the domestic front.. which I guess could be argued as impacting the rest of the world also.

Whoever Votes 3rd Parties, votes for McCain. Sure it sucks to only have two Options, but don´t waste your Votes and help the wrong people. Think of all the Votes that Nader got and helped Bush!
and there you have it...

Wrong on troop surge? American soldiers should be safe home right this very minute, not pissing around in Iraq. The US are trying to negotiate an extended stay that the Iraqis evidently want little/nothing to do with given the difficulties with this latest 'agreement'. Why are the hawks so desperate to stay? As for ties to Kenyan leaders? Sounds like something Fox pulled out of their ass. Obama's a bourgeouis Chicago quasi-white lawyer - he ain't no 'homeboy'. He likes suits and gala dinners, just like the rest of the political hacks. As for Georgia - Saakashvili got what was fucking coming to him: rule 1 - don't fuck with Russia. He started it, he should fucking fix it. Giving unscrupulous Russia a decent pretext to respond military is like cutting your testicles with razorblades for fun.DBBrinson1 wrote:

That is true Cam. But he was wrong on the results.. they are two important points. In Bidens case he voted for the war (ok bad call) and told us the surge would increase violence (ok bad call). Again, I just don't see much in the way of foresight.

Actually it was Obama (somewhat recently after the troop surge) in a closed door meeting with Iraqi officials trying to circumvent the President and get them to with drawl on his timetable (later than the one set).CameronPoe wrote:

Don't agree with the Kenyan link. It's there. The guy who broke the story was banished from Kenya as well. He has e-mail correspondence from the two.

I personally wouldn't peck a fight with Russia if my nation was a "tad" weaker, but hey Bama mentioned that both countries needed to show their strengths.
