I have looked at and listened to all of the candidates. And with one exception, they all sound the same on BOTH sides of the slate. They all mouth their platitudes and cliches and try to form the next sound byte. The all try to come up with another ungrounded platitude, such as 'the candidate for change!', whatever that means, and then argue amongst themselves about who has the right to claim that meaningless phrase. Unanswered is: change from what and change to what?

The only one who has actually said anything is Ron Paul. He argues everything from philosophical and economic principles, and his fundamental premise is the value of human freedom.
