A person not yet offered!
I am looking at the third party candidates right now. Obama is not mature enough. McCain..I am concerned about whether he is too hot-headed or if he'd live through the term.
There are other third-party candidates. Sadly, the TV stations will not allow for us to hear them? I am looking HARD at them. We do NOT only have 2 choices here.

Ron Paul should be our nest president. He is a man who is consistent with his votes on bills and he follows the constitution, which is what our great country was founded upon. He has served his country-which to me is VERY important- and he has experience in healthcare as working as a gyn/ob delivering more than 4,000 babies.
More importantly he will defend the costitution and our freedoms no matter what, he goes against the grain and stands behind what he says....very refreshing in my opinion.
Check him out and see for yourself...and like another person pointed out there are NOT just 2 choices....

The sad thing is he did not get much press coverage because he is not as controversial as the other candidates....but he has my vote and I have never voted or been registered to vote before. I believe in him and I say to hell with all the others.
We need someone who has experience in that office to help us out of this economic funk. We need someone who stand behind what they say and vote. Not like Obama who says he is against raising taxes and then turns around and sponsors a bill that will lead to higher taxation to help global poverty. I liked him when I knew nothing about him....and then I since lost faith in him in many ways.
And age should not be a factor....experience should be. Obama simply does not cut it in that department. And I find him hypocritical and dangerous because he can envoke people to support him by his lovely speeches. ANyone can learn to speak influentially, but can they actually and honestly back it up. He has not proven this at all.
So like I said RON PAUL is my guy.

I also think Obama should be the new President and I think he will be. I think so because he shares my values and views and he won't continue on the same path we've been on all these years with Bush. I believe he'll try to face the problems we face head-on. There will be those who disagree with his ideas but that happens in a democracy, or I should say a "democratic republic" since that's what our form of government actually is. We've done it the "decider's" way for long enough and it hasn't worked.
