As far as Libertarian views are concerned...I see them as a LOT more legit than the current right-wing views. In fact a lot of libs, me included, would vote Independent if Ron Paul runs on an independent ticket.
 
You would have to be seriously delusional to vote for democrats because they are supposedly more fiscally responsible....Everyone knows that the spending bills originate in the house.

I like this one better.The President proposes the budget and can veto the House.Unless there is a 2/3's majority fiscal responsibility ends with the President


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_federal_budget

The Budget of the United States Government is the President's proposal to the U.S. Congress which recommends funding levels for the next fiscal year, beginning October 1. Congressional decisions are governed by rules and legislation regarding the federal budget process. Budget committees set spending limits for the House and Senate committees and for Appropriations subcommittees, which then approve individual appropriations bills to allocate funding to various federal programs.

After Congress approves an appropriations bill, it is sent to the President, who may sign it into law, or may veto it. A vetoed bill is sent back to Congress, which can pass it into law with a two-thirds majority in each chamber




 
Quote from Maverick74:

He is NOT a libertarian and said so. He simply stated that their ideas seemed more legit. One hell of an endorsement. Is that all you have? Dude, you'll find no liberals on ET voting for Paul. Three years ago...sure. Now? Hell no.

I didn't say he was a libertarian ,I said he was a liberal,a liberal who would vote for Paul

Without looking at GDP, that chart is worthless. Look, if you're a trader and you make 50k a year and then next year you make a million dollars a year, there is nothing wrong with increasing your spending.

He NEVER said he would vote for Paul. He said he was more legit.
