I found a candidate

As I observe politics in Washington and the reaction of the throngs of people flocking to both of the major party candidates like they are the messiah, I am discouraged by the direction our nation is taking. Our government has grown almost totally out of control. Even worse, all of the rhetoric and spin from the messianic Democrat and Republican candidates for President suggests to me that they offer no real ideas for improvement and only stand to maintain the status quo and tow their respective party line to preserve their power hold in government.

Well, not to disappoint any of you, but I HAVE looked long and hard at EVERY issue and found a candidate that has our freedom and prosperity in mind on every single one of them.

I'm supporting Bob Barr, the Libertarian nominee for President, and I hope you'll at least check him out and maybe even join me. Visit www.BobBarr2008.com and take a look at the issues. Once you actually read the Libertarian position on the issues you'll rethink your decision about your chosen candidate.

Obama people... you want "Change"? This is your chance.

McCain people... you want to preserve economic freedom and prosperity? This is your chance.

Here's the official blurb about Bob, taken from his official bio.

Bob Barr spent eight years in Congress as a Representative from Georgia. His intellect and leadership skills were quickly recognized. He rose to prominence as a result of his courageous commitment to principle. Bob Barr was and is a strong defender of your civil rights. He will fight to protect our privacy against "big brother" and he'll defend our right to keep and use firearms. Bob will cut government spending, and taxes. And, he'll balance our budget. Bob's plan to tackle our national energy crisis includes embracing new technologies and conservation - but also, more domestic production and refining.
Remember there is no reward without risk...
