Fair enough. What are some policy proposals that would make you say, "at least if I vote for him ____"?
A believable desire to withdraw our troops, roll back the ridiculous quantities of foreign aid, and withdrawing from the UN.
An actual push to cut spending, going hand-in-hand with simplification of the tax code in preparation for disbanding the IRS in the future.
Disbanding at least three large Government agencies over the course of an eight-point-plan.
Anything that would make me believe that my beliefs, my gender, my race, my sexual orientation, and any number of other things will not be used either for my benefit or against me as far as the Government is concerned (since those are not their business).
A reduction in high-level Government with no increase in local Government, but with power decentralized.
Decentralization of education (once again, not the Gov's business).
Any appointments having at least rudimentary knowledge of wtf they are being appointed to.
It's a few things off the top of my head. They would go on the scales.
To give an example, Ron Paul takes a number of very Christian positions on issues when you ask him. His desire to make others adhere to those beliefs at the end of a gun, however, was incredibly minimal. That helps me give him a pass when he and I disagree on something. The restraint with which he would use Government makes it easier to accept something we might disagree on.
