Ron Paul should be the face but he is just too sane and intelligent of a candidate it seems.

I agree that these are of course not all Republicans, but unfortunately they represent the top candidates. I miss a sane person like McCain among them.
It looks like they want to fish among he religious right, will be interesting to see if the calculation is right for them.
Why not try to fish off some Obama voters by endorsing a candidate who comes more from the center? Or would this put too many Republican voters stay away from the elections?
I disagree on many points with Ron Paul, on some he has interesting opinions, on some I agree.
Nevertheless I appreciate that he tries to think out of the bounds of partisan politics and has his own opinion. He would really make an interesting candidate. The present "top tier" candidates?
Nothing really distinguishable among them, like they all come from the same factory.

Me neither. Sadly this is nothing complete new...

I have a great many questions about it. It is a theory, it is a scientific theory only. And in recent years it has been challenged in the world of science and is not believed in the scientific community to be as infallible as it once was. I think that recent discoveries down through the years have pointed up great flaws in it.
