    No.

    I probably won't even bother voting unless it comes down to Hillary vs. McCain.

    I'd vote for Obama before I'd vote for Huckabee.

    Under no circumstances will I vote for Barak Obaba. His platform of freestyle spelling for everyone is an affront to all decent people.

    Granted, the Lipstick Lesbian Porn for Everyone plank is interesting, but the spelling thing kills it for me.

    Not just no, but FUCK no. Odds are extremely fuckin' high that I won't vote for McCain either. I may just wind up writing in for someone.

    Well, I just realized that, not only is Zombie Reagan ineligible, so is Zombie Teddy Roosevelt. (Both had their two terms.) :( So I guess I'll have to vote for either Zombie Lincoln, Zombie JFK, Zombie Elvis, or Christopher Walken. :(

    No, if Ron Paul doesn't run as as independent, I'll just vote for whoever is on the Libertarian ticket.

    This thread is as about as coherent as Obama's economic plan, I'm sure...

    Heck, I'd vote for Hillary before I voted for Huckabee.

    I may vote for Obama - or maybe Libertarian.

    I don't know, but I wouldn't vote for him either. While I agree with him on most issues, the ones I don't agree with are waaayyyy to extreme.

    Zombie Truman is eligible and, unlike any of the other zombies, can serve as many terms as he wants.

    Christopher Walken is ineligible because he is actually Hungarian.

    Whether I vote for him or not depends on his platform. What is it?

    That he is such a nice guy he will grant full amnesty for all spelling and grammatical errors from now on?

    No military, to start with. Dude has no idea what happens outside of US borders - or out from under US protection in other areas of the world.

    Ask yourselves this: Why does everyone in Western Civilization know war is wrong? Is it because we are better than Third World Nations? Is it cuz we're smarter?

    Or is it because of public education and a free press - not to mention mass media?

    The reasons we need a military are not so we can bully other nations, it's because some problems with some world leaders cannot be solved through diplomatic means.

    I think he's an inspiring leader, and that has a great deal of merit.

    I think it's way past time we have a minority or female president. The white male club has to go.

    But just about everything on his platform is something I'm against. The pussification of America would enter overdrive. I think we should have a strong military, foreign presence, not everything can be resolved by diplomacy so you have both options on the table, affirmative action is just reverse discrimination, and illegals shouldn't have a path to citizenship.

    About the only idea he has had that I think has merit is removing tax concessions to companies that offshore jobs.

    Good chance he'll be the next President, but I don't think he'll be all that effectual.
