I voted for Hilary in the primaries. I'd love to vote outside of party lines this next election. I'm not happy with either the far right or far left.

I have a lot of studying to do when all the Republican contenders finally step forward. I remember Ron Paul running but I still don't know much about him. I was just reading about him on wikipedia...I'm not going to judge him for a few stupid remarks (every candidate has made them) but these are some pretty big if they're true:

Controversial claims made in Ron Paul's newsletters, written in the first person narrative, included statements such as "Boy, it sure burns me to have a national holiday for that pro-communist philanderer Martin Luther King. I voted against this outrage time and time again as a Congressman. What an infamy that Ronald Reagan approved it! We can thank him for our annual Hate Whitey Day." [134] Another notable statement that garnered controversy was "opinion polls consistently show only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions, if you have ever been robbed by a black teen-aged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be".[135] An issue from 1992 refers to carjacking as the "hip-hop thing to do among the urban youth who play unsuspecting whites like pianos."[136] In an article titled "The Pink House" the newsletter wrote that "Homosexuals, not to speak of the rest of society, were far better off when social pressure forced them to hide their activities."

Ron Paul the freemason?
