- moolaismyfriend, on 05/13/2008, -16/+5Why do you want McCain to be president?
  - XxtraLarGe, on 05/13/2008, -2/+16What difference does it make? Obama is going to be just as bad in other ways.
    - moolaismyfriend, on 05/13/2008, -16/+1Like there is no difference between Bush and Al Gore?
      
      Are you even old enough to remember that was the Nader camps argument. That there was no difference between Bush and Gore?
      
      Look at what that has gotten us.
      
      Idiot!
  - V3n0M, on 05/14/2008, -1/+8If I wanted McCain to be President, I'd vote for McCain. Since I want Ron Paul to be President, I'm going to write in Ron Paul. What's so hard to understand?
  - cwabray, on 05/14/2008, -0/+4ahh, I hate when you accidentally digg an idiot's comment and can't undo it!
moolaismyfriend, on 05/13/2008, -18/+6yay what are all you Ron Paul supporters gonna do?

Now that you have proven that spamming social sites on the web, and crashing online polls, do nothing to promote a candidate into the mainstream, what will you do? Maybe if you guys fight to get a computer and Internet connection into every single household in America, your online tactics will have more of an effect.
- BuzzFriendly, on 05/14/2008, -1/+3Since when does support equal spam? Using your logic then all candidates supporters are guilty of this. I don't see you complaining about McCain yard sign spam or Hillary TV spam or Obama bumper sticker spam. Just wait until all of us "spammers" show up to vote then what are you going to do?
  - bosley34, on 05/14/2008, -1/+1Seeing any story with Ron Paul on the front page of Digg is like seeing "ZOMG FREE VIAGRA PEN!S ENLARGER GET LA1D NOW!!!!!!" in your e-mail box.
groverblue, on 05/13/2008, -1/+16I think that it would be good to vote Libertarian so that they can get matching funds for the next election. Ron Paul raised about $35M - imagine $70M for the next election.
XxtraLarGe, on 05/13/2008, -2/+15I'm going to vote Libertarian too, I just wish it was Ron Paul running for the nomination.
- 57girl, on 05/14/2008, -0/+1If you wish it were Ron Paul running for the nomination, then vote for him whether he is on the ticket or not. Write his name in. That will be the only way he can win. Please don't just vote for the man the Media tells you you can vote for. The is America, vote your conscience.
Kent4jmj, on 05/13/2008, -1/+16Many Ron Paul supporters will probably write in Ron Paul, vote Libertarian or Chuck Baldwin. We no longer buy main stream political BS from either party. We have been educated to believe in the constitution and freedom. Digg me down but I know you're pissin in your pants.
katie212, on 05/13/2008, -1/+11Many of us will be writing Ron Paul in here in Texas if he isn't on the ballot!
moolaismyfriend, on 05/13/2008, -16/+7Great to see all you Ron Paul idiots helping John McCain to the White House. ***** you Paul bots are selfish little kids.
- Dimalinch, on 05/13/2008, -0/+9yeah, its too bad we are voting FOR someone instead of voting against someone.
- idiggmacs, on 05/14/2008, -0/+7Dude, your vote doesn't even count. Why are you so upset?
- PSWTyrant, on 05/14/2008, -0/+7What a moron/troll/operative. Ron Paul republicans not voting for McCrazy won't help get him elected.
hornshwangler, on 05/13/2008, -3/+10I'll write in Dr. Paul as he's the only viable candidate running for president.
- KMye, on 05/14/2008, -0/+3I don't think you used that word correctly...
idiggmacs, on 05/14/2008, -1/+8I'll write in Ron Paul. That's the only way I feel like my vote will really count for anything.
57girl, on 05/14/2008, -1/+7I am definitely writing Ron Paul's name on the ballot. In the meantime I am telling everyone I run into about his campaign and urging them to listen to his platform. The Media needs to listen to the people and let Ron Paul be heard. For all of the people who would like to vote for him, but feel their vote is wasted because "he can't win" will be full filling their own prophecy. Ron Paul can win if the people that believe in him, stand by him and spread the word. Those of you that are tired of the mud slinging by the main candidates or have become disillusioned by your own 'given choices', Ron Paul is also an option (although the media would have you believe otherwise). I urge everyone to listen to his ideas and plans for America. He is our only REAL HOPE.
bosley34, on 05/14/2008, -6/+3By "plans" I think they mean: hanging, pills, drowning, or self inflicted gun shot wound.
57girl, on 05/14/2008, -1/+3Check out what the Canadians think of Ron Paul .... then thank God as an American, we can actually vote him in to office ... Go Ron!

BuzzFriendly, on 05/14/2008, -1/+4If he is on the ballot I will vote for Ron Paul if he is not I will write him in. I don't know about all states but in Virginia (my state) they have some peculiar requirements for write-in candidates. It seems even a write candidate must file something with the state to qualify as a write in. I wonder if others states have similar requirements.
- 57girl, on 05/14/2008, -1/+2I live in Virginia too, where can I find about about the procedure for writing in my vote? Because, if Ron Paul's name is not on the Ballot, I too intend to write in in.

for those of you that are unfamiliar with Ron Paul, here is a simple clip that will give you an idea of what he is about.
