Ron Paul: "We know none of the four will be elected." WTF?

[Knightskye]

Whole lot of confidence he has.

Around 11 minutes into the interview.

 

[Kludge]

What? Where? How? Who?


Why?

 

[NEPA_Revolution]

Confidence does not equal truth.

 

[JosephTheLibertarian]

Whole lot of confidence he has.

That's what happens when you split a fringe voting block between...

nader - socialist

mckinney - socialist

baldwin - protectionist with no media attention

 

[Kludge]

Campaign transparency FTW?

 

[Kludge]

nader - socialist

mckinney - socialist

baldwin - protectionist

barr - moderate conservative

Suppose.

 

[Dorfsmith]

There is no way any one of the four could be elected because none of them are on all the ballots. It's an impossibility.

 

[Knightskye]

Nader, Barr, and I believe Baldwin are on enough states to get enough electoral votes to win.

Try again.

 

[obsolescence]

Jesus, you're delusional if you think any of the third party candidates have even an iota of chance.

 

[FrankRep]

Confidence does not equal truth.

Yep.

The third parties are just too damn small and won't work together.

 

[user]

Yeah, does anyone here really think one of them will be elected this year?

Did you really think a 3rd party candidate had any shot of winning the election? You forget, 95% of the voters are completely propagandized by the mainstream media into thinking they only have 2 choices. Odds are ZERO that even 5% of them are going to wake up between now and the election.

 

[Knightskye]

Jesus, you're delusional if you think any of the third party candidates have even an iota of chance.

Right, let's go vote for McCain.

 

[Dorfsmith]

Nader, Barr, and I believe Baldwin are on enough states to get enough electoral votes to win.

Try again.

I guess if you slice and dice the electoral votes up enough it is mathematically possible...but those are not odds I would bet on

 

[JosephTheLibertarian]

Yep.

The third parties are just too damn small and won't work together.

You can blame yourself and your fellow protectionist Baldwin supporters for that. You guys are the reason I'm more anti-Baldwin than I am anti-Mccain and Obama

 

[Lovecraftian4Paul]

Ron Paul is just stating an inconvenient truth. None of them could win unless something insane happened. We can only vote for them, boost them, and hope the three third party candidates combined get a percentage large enough to send a message to both parties and register on the public radar. Our best bets are doing this with Baldwin and Nader at this point. Barr's campaign is finished, and McKinney and the Greens are really fringe with a tiny supporter base.

he has confidence in both the major parties ability to cheat and bludgeon their way to winning. skullduggery tips the scales with a huge force.

What are you referring to when you say protectionist?

 

[JosephTheLibertarian]

What are you referring to when you say protectionist?

Your bible thumping candidate & party, friend

Religion aside. How is Baldwin a protectionist?
