Found this this evening.

Has some very interesting numbers.

According this this recent Gallup survey 81% of Americans are dissatisfied with how America's government is functioning, confidence is congress is next to none, 49% of American believe the size and scope of Federal government poses an immediate threat to our liberties and freedoms, 69% of Americans has little to no trust in the legislative branch, more than half (read 53%) have little to no faith in the people running for office and so forth.

Things are out of hand, when do you think Americans will finally see the media is a huge tool of political corruption and stop watching their favorite flavor of opinionated news?

As always, my vote go to Ron Paul.

"I want to totally disassociate myself from the policies that have given us unprecedented deficits, massive monetary inflation, indiscriminate military spending, an irrational and unconstitutional foreign policy, zooming foreign aid... and the attack on our personal liberties and privacy." — Ron Paul

Also, according to a Rasmussen report 73% of Americans see a deficit-cutting deal as unlikely before 2012 election.

When is America going to say enough and stand up?

Ohh, and finally I read that Obama is seeing a drop in small donors? I wonder why that is?

Well in this article at the end it asks the question if the Red camp can put out someone who has a good grassroots support base? Hmmm, I wonder which republican candidate would have no only some or mostly grassroots support but is 100% supported through grassroots organization.

You guys can figure that last one out.

Just a political Question: Did the fact that Pres. Obama was dropping his 'g's have an effect or that someone brought this to MSNBC's attention cause you to think? Or just identifying with his audience?

It's funny that you mention that because I just saw that speech after I went through these articles and subconsciously it probably made me post these links.

It brought me some perspective, It is not like I don't "think" but I can clearly see why Obama is appealing to the "CBC" as he kept calling it.

Keep Clutching for those faint glimmers of Hope Ron Paul doesnt have a chance in hell
I made conclusions from what I read through, you don't like them? That's too bad, blow me.

Anyways, I posted this PRIMARILY to show just how disrupt America is.

Do you want to approach that topic or just continue your usual mantra of "Ron Paul won't win" ?
Ohh , and with the help of a useless congress, Obama's approval rating is still on the brink of dipping into the high 30's. Want some ice for that burn little kiddy?

Ron Paul is old, but since when do you qualify someone as too old? The Constitution only stipulates a minimum age. Ron Paul rides his bike and jogs on a daily basis and well as does all his lawn work himself, so physically I think he is just a capable as most all of male America. Ron Paul would more than likely see some serious aging if he takes the office as POTUS but he would be giving his lat years to America.

And for his ideals, I believe he is pretty much in the middle, that's why he sinks true to the minds of a lot of the independents who don't want to play "Left vs Right" politics.

I feel like you have the right mindset but are still stuck in this "left vs right" war that the media promotes and the general mob of people eat up, it's the perfect weapon of disillusion.

I respectfully agree to disagree about Ron Paul's age. Freedom is a young idea.

Ron Paul is honest
A man of integrity


And he has a lot of very crazy Harmful ideas

Thank God he is mostly honest
I find his reputation as the "Pork King of Texas" is quite disingenuous to his faux-political appeal. I mean, in reality what he does as a congressman goes against his words as a candidate. Thus, who could ever fucking trust him if elected? The man is a walking-talking-ass clown and his campaign is a sham to line his pockets. Two people are your entire campaign team, give me a fucking break.
