A guy like Bernie Sanders could seriously hurt him in a primary if he
tried. The dems are just happy to keep their name on the white house,
even if the guy there is a big business republican in democrat
clothing.

Bernie Sanders isn't going to challenge Obama for the nomination. Period.

The "right" comes up with the birther **** because the base of the GOP
is composed of racist leftovers from the Southern Strategy days. The
righties down at the bottom of the intellectual scale are easy to
manipulate by the Trumps, the Palins, et cetera. Look at who the
birthers *here* have been...the intellectual ciphers who couldn't get
into an open admissions community college.



I just picked Sanders because he seems to be the moral left of your
party. I am not sure who else would qualify. That was my point. When
you have neocons like Hillary and Schumer in leadership positions it
is hard to tell the difference between democrats and republicans if
you don't look at the superficial diversions.
Obama has even ducked the guns and god issues so you are really only
left with abortion and gays. They may bring out emotional responses on
both sides but nobody is going to say either of them is what brought
down the republic.
I think the real power brokers are so happy with the way things are
going they are not really interested in beating Obama so they keep
sending clowns like Trump and Palin to the front of the pack.
That is why I say he may be the most vulnerable from the left ... if
the left actually wanted change.

In that regard you might actually find someone from the Libertarian
side of the world who could rally the people who want to see something
change. I really think the debt is going to shrink the size and scope
of government so you will not have that one to fight about.
In social issues you are probably closer to Ron Paul than you are to
most democrats and he is on the kooky side of libertarian. Even with
that Chris Matthews says he agrees with the Paul foreign policy.



There's no way I could support libertarians like the Pauls who oppose
the Civil Rights Act of 1964 because it places human rights ahead of
property rights. And, while I find Ron Paul charming if uninformed on
many significant issues, I think his son Rand is bat**** crazy, and
totally without charm.

Further, I favor a single payer system.

So, which libertarian should I support?

:)
