I want to support Barr (he is the only third party candidate on my state's ballot), but he is making it difficult with these "foot shootings".......argh!
- eldudereno, on 10/18/2008, -0/+1Do you have a write in option, Naders available for write in on the few states that dont have him on the Ballot.
- RafiParrr, on 10/16/2008, -0/+11You know, Obama would win a lot of my respect back if he showed up for this and prove that he really isn't a part of this two party monopoly in politics. It's hard to for me to believe he's not a part of the system when he's so afraid of anyone outside of it.
- Unicorny, on 10/16/2008, -0/+8He'd win a little of my respect back but not my vote. His support of the Billionaire Bailout while people are still losing their homes just amazed me. And then I looked into his Wall St donors and understood. I'd rather vote third party and lose than endorse the economic and war policies that McCain / Obama / Bush share. I'm disgusted, saddened and a little surprised that this is the state of our nation in 2008. I always expected better.
Go Nader!
Big thanks to all the 2nd party candidates for your efforts to make democracy real!!

- Sandiec99, on 10/16/2008, -0/+10Finally a real debate with real people and substantive questions - I hope!
- CoolHandLuke70, on 10/16/2008, -1/+4Screw Barr! I am definitely washing my hands of him!
- eldudereno, on 10/18/2008, -0/+1This is excellent, if only it could be televised on a few national networks across the U.S. then people would see that they had other choices
- kekemortson, on 10/18/2008, -0/+2I saw this morning in the paper that the debate has been cancelled due to none of the 4 major third party candidates committed to participate.
