Title: Which presidential candidate would you vote for?
Post by: KaChingCoinDev on June 26, 2015, 05:38:19 PM
Please let me know if I missed one. Not all have announced yet, but assuming they do.

  I Stand With Rand!

Are you seriously going to use the write-in to do yourself, or are you hillary clinton in disguise?

I mean that there is no real difference. Rand seems better than others but the president represents an executive branch of power so this position requires significant management experience. Rand has legislative experience but I wouldn't be so sure about his abilities to run executive branch of power. Any person who has no sufficient experience in governing is  doomed to be a puppet. That's why some chief executable or former governor would be more preferable in terms of working in the executive office.

I disagree. I feel a chief executive would be worse, as they A: never ran for office, B: Don't know legislation, C: Won't know US legislative process like the senators

C also applies to governors

I begrudgingly like Rand Paul in a thoroughly unimpressive republican field, and Bernie Sanders on the other side for having a principled point. However, neither of them get my vote in the general election, as it's going to Gary Johnson. I do not find acceptable the manipulative ways both democrats and republicans conspire to keep all third parties out of the debates and off the ballots, so I will not be voting for any of their candidates, as it only precipitates the problem. The candidates aren't the biggest problem, it's the two parties and how seek to control the government at all costs.

Voting in a presidential election in the US is pointless, it doesn't matter who wins, we all lose.  The office was bought and paid for by US corporations a long, long time ago, and does nothing to serve its people.

George Carlin, as always, had the best take on it: https://youtu.be/xIraCchPDhk

Does Donald Trump have any unironic support? I'm going to view that post to be satire, just like his candidacy, because it makes me feel better about the world we live in.

Prior to Ron Paul getting more libertarian republicans into the GOP, I would've voted for the libertarian party candidate. Assuming Rand makes it as the GOP nominee, I will definitely be supporting him in the general election.

What's Rand's BTC address?

I'll be donating a little more than I can afford to, just like when was running for Senator.  That investment paid great dividends!   8)

I am not a resident of the United States, so I can't vote in the POTUS elections 2016. That said, if I was an American citizen, my vote would have gone to Rand Paul. He is the only one who respects personal privacy among the major candidates. Also, he is the most pacifist candidate among the bunch. If he gets elected as the POTUS in 2016, the world will be a very peaceful place to live on.

Too bad he will not be the president because the next POTUS will be female.

If you are serious, you can donate right on his website with bitcoin.

Sanders or workers revolution is coming within next four years.

Do you support that, or just see it coming?

I agree. Also, he is very conservative on economic issues, and that is what we need.

I agree no Killary or Bush, but I think Rand Paul could give Trump a run for his money (pun intented) for being good on economics. Plus Rand has the legislative experience, so my vote goes to rand.

Bernie Sanders would get my vote, seems to be the only sane person on the list though I can't see him becoming prez any time soon.

I agree with some of Rand Paul's views but his stance on abortion/civil rights etc belong in the dark ages.

Are you a radical feminist who plans to vote for Hillary just because she is a bisexual female? Or do you have any other solid reason for voting in this warmonger? If she is elected as the POTUS in 2016, the United States will disintegrate before the end of her term (in 2020). She will launch attacks against Iran and the DPRK, which will create an enormous financial burden on the American taxpayers. Just like the USSR collapsed as a result of the war in Afghanistan, the US will also collapse as a result of a war with Iran.

Well we can but hope, surprised by a recent Gallup poll showing 47% of Americans would vote for a socialist president. O'Reilly wouldn't be pleased

I cant believe Don only has 3 votes. You guys are all crazy voting for the others. We don't need another politician, we need a business man running our country.

"Mr President Sir. ISIS is taking over Iraq. We strongly believe that we need to send in ground troops and eliminate the problem"

President Trump.
"Well how much will that cost us to go to war with ISIS?"


"Mr President Sir. In our best guestimate it will be around 20 Billion to start"

President Trump.

" 20 billion, forget those animals, let them rape and kill their own people, we are here and we need to look out for us first. I just signed a deal with china and now its Illegal to sell anything in china that was made outside of the united states. We'll be making 450 bazillion over the next 20 years off this deal. This is how we run a country. We make money for us and not spend our money saving others in some far away land with mostly criminals, sure I assume some are nice people but let them fight their fight"

"Mr President Sir. Sir yes Sir."

The bitcoiner demography is changing. Most of the early adopters were libertarian, and their main aim was the destruction of the banking sector. But now, the Bitcoiner demography is similar to the general demography, although there is a notable gender divide in favor of the males. I will not be surprised, if the Pinocchibitch gets the maximum votes.
