I felt certain you wouldn't.
That's why RP wasn never a serious candidate. Same for Ooooooooobama.
Barack Obama is going to be here in Eugene on Friday at the University of Oregon. I plan on going to listen to what he has to say. Eugene is a very very liberal city. I saw Bill Clinton at the same venue just before he became POTUS and he was treated like a Hollywood star here. I expect it to be an over flowing crowd. He is winning the lawn sign battle locally, and the mindset of Eugene does not look fondly at dynasties. I expect him to trounce Hilary in the Oregon primary. He'll take Lane County where I live by a two digit margin. I worked on Jesse Jackson's campaign here when he ran in the primary. Eugene is a diversity friendly city. I can't think of any group that is not protected from job and housing discrimination here in Eugene. Barack Obama does not have to worry about who wins this state. Old people I know still gush about John Kennedy's 1960 primary visit here. And he has hit the same nerve JFK did visiting here, no question about that. There is a statue of Wayne Lyman Morse here too, with a federal building of the same name, the man known as the tiger of the Senate who voted against the Gulf of Tonkin resolution. The peace march here this last week was large this community pays undying close attention of who voted on what, and who supported or facilitated what. Ron Paul was the favorite of many I know here pure and simply because of his war stance; to hell with worrying about anything else he supported they disagreed with. The same crowd discusses and worries about Obama's commitment to end the insanity of this illegal and immoral war. However he voted the right way not to authorize it, Hillary the wrong way. She has no wiggle room to win this crowd over. She is toast here from the start simply on the war issue alone.
Do you agree with Ron Paul that Obama is a fraud, that he has voted to fund the wars, and that he will expand the wars?
No one seems to want to answer that question. If Ron Paul is a man of honesty and integrity, and John McCain once called Paul "The most honest man in Congress," I see no reason to disbelieve what Paul says about Obama.
