I’m trying to decide whether to support Ron Paul or Fred Thompson for president. Does anyone out in the internets have some advice for me?

Well, since Ron Paul is backed by Nazi’s, I’d say go with him.
But then again, I wouldn’t want to cross Fred Thompson.
Vote for Hillary, just to be safe.
An easy 6 step plan to find out who to vote for:
1) Go oustide.
2) Find a rock.
3) Pick it up.
4) Bring it to your favorite chair.
5) Stare at it.
6) If the realization hits that the rock is smarter than you, vote Ron Paul. If you think the whole thing is a waste of time, vote Fred Thompson.
Well, you gotta ask yourself one question.
No, a different one. Jeez.
Do you think winning an internet poll is more important than winning an election?
If the answer is “yes”, you too could vote Ron Paul.
Alternatively, if you feel that “First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win.” you too could vote for Ron Paul.
On the other hand, if you feel that “First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then you kick their asses” you should probably be voting for Fred! Thompson.
You might be a Ron Paul supporter if:
You’ve been married three times and still have the same in-laws.
You think Genitalia is an Italian airline.
Your sister is the third generation of women in your family to conceive a baby as a result of an alien abduction.
You think watching professional wrestling or Star Trek is foreplay.
Your whole family is Democrat except you. You learned how to read.
Why limit choice to puny humans? Cave Troll make great President. And after Cave Troll crush Frank with big rock for impostering Cave Troll, Cave Troll will have First Lady SarahK – this will help Cave Troll appeal to family voters. Cave Troll will win, or name not Cave Troll!
I was spying on Ron Paul, and I gleaned a key piece of his strategery. I’m not certain exactly how it works, but he’s relying on a lack of IMAO podcasts to weave his master plan…
They’re basically the same thing – they can both beat the crap out of Edwards.
I think a good vote would be for Dodd. I mean – with a name like Dodd, you just know he’d be an awesome president. A Dodd versus Huckabee election would be sure to bring the voters (and termites) out of the woodwork.
I think Ron Paul has some supporters on the internets; maybe some of them will reply to this thread. You’ll probably get all the info you need to make an informed decision just by listening to them.
I’m opposed to voting for anybody with two first names and no last names. Don’t vote for either Ron Paul or Daniel Craig. Although, come to think of it, I do know somebody whose first name is Thompson.

As a man with 3 first names I can’t support your position.
I was kinda split on this one. On one hand, you have Fred Thompson, who actually seems Presidential, and could inspire fear and a general sense of dismay in our enemies.
On the other hand, Ron Paul looks alot like an Elf, and the election is happening in November. Damn if I don’t have a soft spot for the Holidays.
Broaden your voting choices!
I want a Harry Reid Dennis Kucinich ticket to win. Think of the jocularity that would ensue. We would be safe from terroristas because they would be laughing to hard to defend themselves. It would probably solve the immigration problem too, no one would want to come here. We survived 8 years of the dog patch mafia, 4 years of Laurel and Hardy would be a breeze.
Ron Paul or Fred Thompson? Well that’s easy. Ron Paul, of course. Fred Thompson will be so enraged that he will hurl Ron Paul into the sun, and we won’t have to deal with him ever again.
Then all we have to do is survive the inevitable apocalypse brought on by Fred Thompson’s righteous fury over us not voting for him, because we all should have known he was going to hurl Ron Paul into the sun anyway.
Thanks, Frank. Thanks a lot. Now Fred Thompson, in all his omniscience, will know I’ve read this and blast me to cinders in a towering, white hot rage for having even seen such a concept.
I’ll be thinking of you as I write out my will. Thanks, pal.
You think Genitalia is an Italian airline.
I can’t figure out Rubeus’ deal, those are lefty talking points, except the one above.
However, Rubeus, before you use that again, you should know that powergenitalia
is an energy company in Italy.
You should vote for Ron Paul because you want to be on the right side of his inevitable election win. Why, according to the latest online poll, 130% of registered voters plan on voting for Ron Paul in the general election. Join the winning team already, Frank.
Does anyone really, really think that a few klansman who independently support Paul matters? What about the fact that Thompson is basically a B-level actor with no consistency and Ron Paul can go back to von Mises, Hayek, Chodorov and those other paleocon/libertarian authors no one on this site has heard of or read.
Or we can just call him crazy.
I’m afraid I don’t understand Mr. Luminos’ comment, though I can’t rightly tell someone not to make pokemon jokes.
It makes my point though: most people could care less about their leaders having a particular, consistent philosophy of government. Anyway those authors, especially Chodorov and Hayek, were once famous upholders of (paleo)conservative/libertarian ideas; now they are ignored, and that Kristol guy counts as an “intellectual”.
I don’t dislike Ron Paul, just his supporters. I hate it when they pretend they’re principled. Whose principles allow constant lying on anonymous internet polls? Von Mises? Hayek?

Vote for Ron Paul because Fred Thompson is nothing but a Zionist Neocon!

Fred Thompson is a dirty jew lover. Ron Paul hates jews, he’ll get rid of their evil banks and conspiracy

Since this post is obviously troll bait, shouldn’t it be filed under “Cave Troll 2008”?
Does setting out bait count as a campaign contribution?

They both suck just like you.
Vote Ron Paul. 1,000 Klansmen can’t be wrong.
They’re basically the same thing – they can both beat the crap out of Edwards.
I think a good vote would be for Dodd. I mean – with a name like Dodd, you just know he’d be an awesome president. A Dodd versus Huckabee election would be sure to bring the voters (and termites) out of the woodwork.

One of these candidates can move from his home state to Washington, DC, and he will raise the average IQ in both places. Vote for the other one.
I was thinking of voting for Daniel Craig. Why have a First Lady when you can have a Bond Girl(or 6).
For anyone seriously having that debate…go feed yourself to an alligator

Neither. Reappoint Bush/Cheney 2008.

The “internets” ?? Bad bait, Frank. Suggest you propose a real issue for discussion to attract the Pauliticians.
Vote Ron Paul. 1,000 Klansmen can’t be wrong.

I hate Illinois Nazis!
I think Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich are twins separated at birth.

If you are going to vote for a lunatic named Paul for President, why don’t you go the whole way?
RU PAUL FOR PRESIDENT!!!

“Paul can go back to von Mises, Hayek, Chodorov”
I’m sorry, but I’m not really into pokemon.
(couldn’t resist :))
Hey Rubeus,
On the other hand, if you’ve been “married three times”, you aren’t a Ron Paul supporter — you’re one of his opponents!
Don’t waste your time with Ron Paul, go to the source, vote Zod in ’08!
