Would your situation be so different now if John McCain were president? Please admit that we are facing two sides of the same filthy coin. I love how the media portrays dems and republicans as polar opposites although these candidates agree on 90% of the major issues. A third-party candidate would benefit the nation greatly although we are too stupid to realize it

God bless the USA

Ron Paul is the only candidate who makes any sense.  The Fed, drug war, troops on foreign soil, and on and on and on.

Turn off the TV, the bickering will drive you insane.

Status quo ends up helping me financially. Investments still taxed @ 15% or 60/40 depending.
Militarism will keep bonuses and incentives for being in the military.
Advanced drone warfare makes sure my chances of dying go down, while increased disassociation of violence means that our leaders can remain calm amidst record numbers of civilian deaths.
Corruption will keep my day job going strong. Plenty of new contracts etc. Failure to deal with the immigration issue will result in artificially low prices for food.
Skirting the issue of labor flows will guarantee I can buy a new 60in TV this year which is nice unless you are a child slave in china getting cancer to produce it (which I am not)

Obama's new schemes to re structure existing loans home/school will be easy to exploit and take advantage of (even though I don't need them).

All in all status quo (Romney, Obama, Gingrich, Santorum) end up being a pretty good deal for me personally.

Too bad my country is dying.

But fuck it right?
I can stay ignorant and lazy. (that 60 inch will help with that)

I am a small business owner, and I will benefit in a better environment for the economy.  This won't happen with the status quo.  I would benefit if any GOP candidate won the election and repealed Obamacare, and we fixed or repealed Dodd Frank so banks can lend money again to small business owners.  Not to mention lowering tax rates, unlike our current president who wants to raise taxes.

If a GOP candidate is elected I would make over a four year term anywhere from _______ more money than if Obama is reelected I can't even say how much because nobody on this site would believe me anyway,,,,,,,

Let's go America, we are running out of time, Wake up people, we can't afford for more years of Obama.

Obama has been a disaster. Romney has no back bone and he changes positions on issues depending upon who his audience is at the time. I will vote 3rd party this year. I don't give a shit if he won't win at least I can live with my decision.
Obama:

Romney:

Gary Johnson:

Ron Paul:

Buddy Roemer:

Johnson,Paul and Roemer speak the truth and they cannot be bought off.

It's different if you are a small business owner.  Repeal Obamacare, repeal Dodd Frank, lower taxes, all would benefit small business owners.

Probably Obama, because it's so easy to telegraph the leftist pass

hell, i hit the metals ten bagger under bama, and is documented on this site, i know what they will do many months before 'they' do it.

I think that Romney would probably be even more of a wet dream for those that know how to play the trade when gov't is stimulizing the hell out of the economy, and a GOP pres will be able to offer more free money hand outs (and they will) with control over both senate, house, and WH

that's short term thinking, and i can have more currency, however i know that will lead to an even harder crash (inevitably)

I don't believe the hype from the simpletons that claim that Bama is such a genius, but compared to the GOP field, he can't be any dumber

Dems kill small business owners with the payroll tax that doesn't provide a break for less employees and Repubs kill them for policies that make it easy for large corps to undercut small business owners prices.

But its funny listening to the right or left wingers talking about how their policies benefit small business owners.

As goes small businesses and housing goes the economy. They aren't mutually exclusive either.
