When McCain ran against Obama in 2008, Ron Paul was also on the ticket.
I voted for Ron Paul since he was the best candidate.
I held signs for Ron Paul in 2007/2008 in freezing Indiana winter. Anyone telling at least some truth is preferable to a studied and well compensated liar.
I guess it's a matter of trusting what you've been taught versus what you see. I really want to believe the human race is not doomed, but watching the the filthy lying liars that are constantly cheered on by what seems to be the overwhelming mass of humanity tends to be a bit of a bummer.
