Hmm, the one I can identify with most is Guilianni - hope I spelled that right.

I'd still like to see a healthcare initiative from the Republicans. We are a great country, but we are really lacking where providing healthcare to our citizens is concerned.

This may seem odd, but I honestly have no idea whether Guilianni is Republican, Democrat or something else. I never checked.
Typically, I can relate to the positions of Democrats more (or that is how it usually boils down) but it makes no difference to me what party they are affiliated with if they meet my personal position about issues pretty closely and I feel they are "less corrupt" than others.
I think there are already some deeply ingrained divisions among those in our OWN country simply because one side tends to hate the other and their followers just because of "their party affiliation". That gets real old real quick and is, IMO, self-defeating to our country.
Who is your choice Cole?

I haven't decided yet...I am a Registered Democrat. Right now I feel the Democrats are not only putting the cart before the horse by doing too much too soon, but the press is also giving us an unequal share of democratic exposure. I'm a Democrat and I'm feeling inundated.
For example: I read an article today in More Magazine about Hillary, and how she isn't able to catch the vote of educated women in their 30's and 40's. I agree. Interestingly the article was flanked with a very ugly painting of Hillary. Not just unflattering but ugly. I was a bit surprised and tried to figure out if the image of Hillary was a poor effort at equalization or a blatant attempt to encourage letters to the editor. How about you?

I'm a Ron Paul supporter, so I'd like to see him win. Unfortunately, as one of the realistic Paul supporters, I know the odds are greatly stacked against him. Much of his ideas are questionable to many, his stance on the war is unpopular in the party he's running for, and worst of all, he has a strong backing of 9-11 truthers who tarnish his image greatly by insisting his one of them. He has indeed mentioned that it might be a good idea to re-open the 9-11 investigation, as there were certain questions left unanswered, but many have unfortunately misconstrued this as a 'truther' attempt to try to prove the government committed 9-11.
Ultimately, though, I can't see myself being happy with anyone but him in the white house. I considered many democrats - but none of them impress me, nor do any of the republicans. I have yet to look at the libertarian platform, but I get the feeling it'll come down to voting for the libertarian I think has a better chance of getting in the white house.
