Ron Paul is an Official Write-In Candidate in California and Other States

Ron Paul will be a certified write-in candidate for president in California. Official write-in status means Ron Paul's write-in votes will be counted just as if he were on the ballot in that state. Paul supporters have met the requirements put forth by the California Secretary of State. The write-in ticket also includes Judge Andrew Napolitano for vice president. Paul supporters argue that the winner of Tuesday's presidential election is certain to be one of two candidates who both support the indefinite military detention of US citizens (NDAA,) sanctions and possible strikes on Iran, the continuing bail-outs of major banks which could wind up costing US taxpayers as much as $23 ...
U.S. Elections: Will the Dead Vote and Voting Machines be Hacked?

“He who casts a vote decides nothing. He who counts the vote decides everything.” -Joseph Stalin Whether or not he said it, Stalin’s quote has entered into folklore. For a vote to mean anything, those counting the ballots must have a greater respect for the integrity of democracy than they have lust for power. Since Stalin’s time, the technology has changed. With electronic voting machines, which leave no paper trail and are programmed with proprietary software, the count can be decided before the vote. Those who control the electronics can simply program voting machines to elect the candidate they want to win. Electronic voting is not transparent. When you vote ...

Obama’s campaign efforts ‘coming from his loins,’ says Axelrod

LIMA, Ohio--Speaking to reporters here on Friday after a full day of passionate campaign speeches from President Barack Obama, senior adviser David Axelrod said that Obama's enthusiasm "is coming from his loins." "I've never seen him more exhilarated than he is right now. He believes in what he's doing. He believes in what he's fighting for. You can see in the speech that he's delivering that this is coming from his loins. I just wanted to say loins," Axelrod added with a smile. "I wanted to see if I can get loins in the story." The adviser also noted that he thinks "the thing that's most difficult about the presidency is by ...
Voting for a Third Party Candidate Is NOT a Wasted Vote

Preface: Many Americans are waking up to the fact that the Republican and Democratic candidates are incredibly similar. Many people are starting to realize that Obama and Romney are virtually indistinguishable on war, jobs, freedoms and favoring fatcats instead of the little guy. Judge Napolitano explained today why voting for a third party is not wasting one’s vote: Can one morally vote for the lesser of two evils? In a word, no. A basic principle of Judeo-Christian teaching and of the natural law to which the country was married by the Declaration of Independence is that one may not knowingly do evil that good may come of it. So, is a vote for [a third party] or no vote at all ...
Mitt Romney loved Vietnam draft he purposefully avoided

On the right, a young Mitt Romney can clearly be seen protesting for the Vietnam War. Did you ever think you’d see Mitt Romney on a picket line? Probably not. The Republican, he’s fond of reminding us, is a businessman, and businessmen are not in the, well, business of protesting. But the 1960s were a crazy time for the United States, and Romney wasn’t immune to the scent of Vietnam-related uprising in the air. Only instead of picketing against the war, Romney fought for it by marching against a 1966 anti-war sit-in at Stanford University, where he was attending school. A picture taken on May 20, 1966, clearly shows a 19-year old Romney, whose father was at the time ...

DES MOINES — Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz warned a group of international voting monitors that they face arrest if they monitor polling locations in Iowa next week. “My office met with two delegation representatives last week to discuss Iowa’s election process, and it was explained to them that they are not permitted at the polls,” Schultz said in a statement released Tuesday. “Iowa law is very specific about who is permitted at polling places, and there is no exception for members of this group.” The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe plans to send observers from its Office for Democratic Institutions to Iowa and other states. ...

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Federal officials say that absentee ballots being sent to U.S. military serving in Afghanistan may have been burned in a plane crash. A top official in the Federal Voting Assistance Program this week notified election officials across the nation that a transport plane crashed at Shindad Air Base on Oct. 19. The crash resulted in the destruction of 4,700 pounds of mail inbound to troops serving in the area. Federal officials in their email to state election offices said they did not know if any ballots were destroyed. They also said the lost mail was limited to one zip code. But they recommended that election officials resend a new ballot to anyone who ...

International election observers planning to visit Texas polling places have “full immunity” from being arrested in the United States, the State Department said when discussing a letter from the Texas Attorney General. “I’m not going to get into any kind of hypothetical situations or predict where this is going to go other than to say we have every expectation that this will be worked out and to state the fact, which is that under U.S. law they are eligible for immunities,” said State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland. Reporters tried to get her to state explicitly that Texas could not arrest election observers from the Organization for Security and ...
Presidential election hits $2B fundraising mark

WASHINGTON (AP) — The 2012 presidential campaign passed the $2 billion mark in fundraising Thursday, fueled by an outpouring of cash from both ordinary citizens and the wealthiest Americans hoping to influence the selection of the country's next leader. The eye-popping figure puts the election on track to be the costliest in modern U.S. history. It comes amid a campaign finance system vastly altered by the proliferation of outside groups and "super" political committees that are bankrolling a barrage of TV ads in battleground states. President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney have brought in about $1.7 billion so far this election, according to ...
Green Party Populism

Green Party Populism by Stephen Lendman Imagine a political party wanting America governed progressively. Imagine its platform stressing social justice, human and civil rights, peace, disarmament, and other populist policies America's duopoly spurns. More on this below. On October 23, Russia Today (rt.com) and C-SPAN broadcast 90 minutes of debate by third party presidential candidates Jill Stein (Green Party), Gary Johnson (Libertarian Party), Virgil Goode (Constitution Party), and Rocky Anderson (Justice Party). Scoundrel media coverage was scant. Broadcast and cable news networks ignored it. Chicago's Hilton and Towers served as venue. The Chicago Tribune headlined ...

A Romney-Biden Administration? It Could Happen

It's sounds crazy. It would be crazy. But it is possible that this election could result in a President Romney and a Vice President Biden. Let me explain. If there is a tie in the electoral college (and, as I explain below, there could be), it will be up to the newly elected House of Representatives to elect a President and the newly elected Senate to elect the Vice President. The rules are all outlined in the 12 th Amendment to Constitution. Here's how it would work: 1) In the House vote for President, each state delegation gets a single vote. So California, with 53 Representatives (majority of them Democrats), would likely cast its single vote for Obama. South Dakota with just ...

Another disgusting debate. Mitt Romney's handlers wanted him to be less of a warmonger tonight, and Barack Obama's handlers wanted him to be more of a warmonger, but that was all just a lying smokescreen. The establishment scam of bipartisan foreign policy still dominates: these two are twins of empire, interventionism, spending, and mass death. Oh, and Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel.

Editor's note: Dear Readers, every two years – for about the last 30 years – Doug has run a variation of this article somewhere, including 2010, when Doug and Louis discussed voting… as a matter of principle, not the particulars of the candidates of the day. Well, it's a different day, and once again the pundits are trying their best to persuade everyone of how crucial this election is, and how important it is to vote, if only for the lesser of two evils. So here it is. Although it will infuriate some, we consider it a Public Service Announcement. P.S. If you want to discuss anything from matters of principle down to specific investment ideas with Doug, one of the ...

A mysterious website, Octsurprise.com, which touts a secret document that the site warns would hurt one of the candidate's chance of winning the presidential election, is likely a prank. Update: There now seem to be problems loading the site, and the Twitter handle @OctSurprise has gone offline. "One of your presidential candidates isn't being honest with you," it reads, accompanied by a clock counting down the minutes. "Stay tuned to find out which one it is." Speculation about the site has spread throughout Twitter via its handle @Octsurprise and the hashtag #OctSuprise. The page then appeared in a community post on Buzzfeed early on Thursday and was taken ...

A supporter of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney was spotted wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with words 'put the white back in the White House' at a campaign event in Ohio this week. After seeing it, a Romney spokesperson condemned the racist shirt and said that it was reprehensible and has no place in this election'. According to news.com.au, above the slogan, the man had added a Romney/Ryan logo. The image resulted in strong reactions on social networks, with comments on Twitter such as "Absolutely disgusting, shows the type of people Romney draws" and "Was an undecided voter. Voting for Obama now. If GOP this full of hate I want no part of it." ...

Ross Perot endorses Mitt Romney

Ross Perot, the businessman who mounted the last major challenge to the two-party political system, said Tuesday he is backing Mitt Romney for president this year. Mr. Perot's 1992 campaign elevated the budget deficit to the forefront of politics, and six years later the federal government notched its first surplus in decades. "At stake is nothing less than our position in the world, our standard of living at home and our constitutional freedoms," Mr. Perot said in a statement released by the Romney campaign. "That is why I am endorsing Mitt Romney in his quest for the presidency. We can't afford four more years in which national debt mushrooms out of control, our ...
Romney Proudly Explains How He's Turned Campaign Around

For weeks many Beltway insiders had written off the Romney campaign as dead, saying the candidate had dug himself into too deep a hole with too little time to recover. However, with a month to go before ballots are cast, Romney has pulled even with President Obama, and the former Massachusetts governor credits his rejuvenated campaign to one, singular tactic: lying a lot. “I’m lying a lot more, and my lies are far more egregious than they’ve ever been,” a smiling Romney told reporters while sitting in the back of his campaign bus, adding that when faced with a choice to either lie or tell the truth, he will more than likely lie. “It’s a strategy that works ...
