The word you might be looking for is "fair", not "honest". No, it's not fair, but then the democratic system in your country (and mine) is not fair. You win by gaming the system, and this is just an example of that.
Well, no more do I want to here than Ron Paul is any better or more moral than those other politicians. He is just as much as a skin flint game player as the others.
The day Ron Paul gets elected will be the day America has gone WAY to far to the right for me..and I may just very well leave it.

Not unless he finds a way to make Obama delegates into Ron Paul delegates... Im sure he would gladly turn my vote for someone else into a vote for one of his delegates. this is no libertarian. He is a typical Republican. He doesnt give a shit about civil liberties (because otherwise he would be opposed to doing such a thing). He just wants power.
