hahaha, he is a libertarian.

He won't make too many people vote along party lines with the majority of them being democrats and republicans.

Yes, sorry about that typo.

He raised a lot of money in a few days. Its not compared to the other candidates, but I think I would vote for him.

Instead of throwing aways your vote, make it useful.

the only problem with this is, that we use electorial college. so its not done by popularity vote. besides most people vote along party lines with most of them being democrat or republican.

I think the two party system needs to go. It forces people to vote for people.

I think on an interview Bob Barr said that he knows he isn't going to win this time. But he will educate people.

Once people see that there is another choice, i think they will educate themselves about the electorial college and maybe something will happen.

The fact is, we could have had this election 1 year ago and I think the results would have been the same because of the electorial college.

alot of people don't like the electorial college and no one know why we still use it. They say we use for tradition.

I understand what your saying about Bob barr, Ron Paul is doing the same thing, he is trying to get a message out and he knows he won't win.
