user 6416688 Leland, NC Post #: 1	http://www.theaustral... I found this article to be very interesting. The author voiced many of the same concerns I've had for awhile. I'm terribly concerned about this near messianic figure Barack Obama is becoming. This campaign is just creepy. It's like David Karesh, Jim Jones, Sun Myung Moon and L. Ron Hubbard all rolled into one but more dangerous because he's so close to taking control of the most powerful nation in the history of the world. The Obama campaign is all about Obama. It's entirely self absorbed and terribly arrogant. It's maddeningly vague which strikes me as very disingenuous. Try to get an Obama supporter to define anything about their leader's platform and they'll spout off something about change. Ask them what kind of change or how he'll bring it about and they'll accuse you of hate. Introduce a fact that casts Obama in a disparaging light, such as his false claim of opposing the war in Iraq from the beginning or that he's never worked for corporate lobbying interests, and they'll call you a racist. The Cult of Obama scares the heck out of me.

user 6434506 Orlando, FL Post #: 3	How about none of the above? There is a candidate that wants change and has a plan for change. He is the only candidate that has a record to back up his claims. His policies have been set for over 200 years and he doesn't flip-flop. He has never voted to raise taxes. He has never voted for an unbalanced budget. He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership. He has never voted to raise congressional pay. He has never taken a government-paid junket. He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch. He voted against the Patriot Act. He voted against regulating the Internet. He voted against the Iraq war. He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program. He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year. He supports The Constitution and wants to bring the troops home... What could be better? RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT 2008 www.ronpaul2008.com YouTube Ron Paul
