Other than Ron Paul, the rest of the GOP field is filled with religious extremists, know nothings and other less desirable characteristics. Let's see those runner ups.
1)Obama- The only reason he might win is that his competitor is probably going to be a hell of a lot worse. Not a single sector of his base is happy with him, including the Democratic Black Caucus, headed by Maxine Waters, who is flabbergasted at his ignoring of liberal social problems, especially the black community which has been hit hardest by the ongoing depression we are in. He's going to have an uphill battle if Ron Paul scores the nod. Versus anyone else, he's got a solid shot even if photos emerge of him having gay sex with a guy while forging his birth certificate.
2)Economists- Will you people stop talking about the recession like it actually ever ended for most of us? There is no double dip recession, it's a depression and we've been in one for years. Fixing the stock market to create the illusion we're doing better than we are is not the solution. Unemployment is still somewhere between 17-26% depending on the most accurate stats avaialble. Housing is worse than the Great Depression, a fact even economists acknowledge and wages are falling. We now make on average (bottom 90%) around 31,000 dollars a year. That's ten thousand less than in 1970. Corporations are screwing you America and you just keep taking it. As a matter of fact, the Tea Party is driving this crap. Hope they like working 16 hour days for a piece of stale bread because that's coming soon if corporations keep raking more and more for profit.
3)MSM- A major attack happened in Israel this week, one that could lead to a massive war, and the media treated it as if nothing occurred. Hamas renounced the truce that's been in effect for five years and both sides have killed in retaliation. Worse, Egyptian soldiers were caught in the melee and now they're pissed. Between this, Syria and Turkey tensions rising, and the fact the soldiers are going to be in Afghanistan until 2024 at this point, this whole region is ripe for war.
4)GOP- Anyone happy of the current crop of GOP contenders should have their heads examined. Bachmann and Perry are devout Dominionists, a dangerous sect of Christianity that believes corporate power is the way to prosperity and that the poor can fend for themselves without help from the state. Yeah, that's real Christian, idiots. Plus, Perry has been rumored to have long line of women he's bedded over the years, his stats in Texas are terrible (last in things like wages, employment, health care, education and the like), and is not well liked in his home state. Good luck wining. I'm going to guess most of the field is one ad campaign away from ruin. Except for Ron Paul which the media has gone into overtime to discredit because let's face it, he may actually be good for this country. Vote Ron Paul and hope he's got what it takes to save us all. The rest of the field is indeed douchebags of the week.
