Unity 2008 has to be Bipartisan... what Dem would you have him run with?

 

[xCakex]

I would love to see this. The revolution never stops.

Thomas Jefferson.

They nominate from the internet, from the people, so if we have enough people on board we might be able to override that rule.

I have an account on there just in case, even though I can't vote, I can vote there, I might just go on there just to vote for someone.

Unity party might as well not exist. I've seen it mentioned 3 times in this forum and nowhere else, anywhere.

Gravel is a far better match with RP then Kucinich.

Chris Dodd seems to be a pretty good choice.

Similarities:
Against the Iraq War
Against Illegal immigrants (but wants easier legal immigration)
Against Federal gun-control
Against telecom warrentless spying
Against Federal criminalization of marijuana

Contrasts:
Pro-choice
Wants to extend healthcare
Wants Federal intervention in energy crisis


So, if he can be convinced that the Federal government doesn't have a right to legislate on the places he disagrees with Paul upon he makes a pretty good running mate. Although, I also agree that Unity '08 is completely unknown and therefore probably wouldn't help us for a general election run.

I would also prefer Gravel to Kucinich. But that would make a 149-year-old ticket.

Ron Paul WILL NOT run with a SOCIALIST.

Some people have NO CLUE what Dr. Paul represents.

Once again, for those of you who are dense:

F R E E D O M ! ! !

Mike Gravel said that we should be able to buy marijuana in gas stations.


I don't do drugs or drink at all, but I agree with him .

 

[SeanEdwards]

I'll never vote for Kucinich under any circumstances.

 

[ChickenHawk]

Unity is a really dumb idea in this case. You can't unite oil and water.

I agree with this. I thought all along that Dodd was the least noxious of the dem lineup.

Kucinich is certifiably insane. Maybe he has good intentions, but he is still a ufo-watching gun-grabbing fruitloop.

 

[nate895]

I'll never vote for Kucinich under any circumstances.

I'd only vote for him if he were running against the Devil himself.

 

[Ladiliberty]

This is a weird thread... Kucinch is too far fetched on socialism...Hillarry and Mac are a better match! LOL

 

[Aratus]

because he's
an honest guy!

picture a ballot
with nader/gonzalez
and also paul/ kucinich!
this is almost a
liberal's nightmare!

Socialist party won elections in Milwaukee

Unity party might as well not exist. I've seen it mentioned 3 times in this forum and nowhere else, anywhere.

The Unity party existed in the early 1900's after the Socialist party won elections in Milwaukee. It was formed as a merger of Dems and Reps. It broke apart very soon after the Socialists were defeated.

However, a key factor in the use of the Unity label is unusual circumstances. What we've seen in the past 4 elections is the two party system running like normal.

if people have to defend kucinich's stance on ufos... at least table salt is
on mars, and this implies water and ancient seas. i know this is an indirect
'ray bradbury' defense of his ufo sighting, and does go tangentally into nasa...

Paul/Sanford or Paul/Goldwater

 

[Aratus]

Paul/Goldwater is logical as a ticket!

even if Perot/Kucinich is on the ballots,
i feel mcCain's people would break into a sweat!
