    Fer F*CK's SAKE!

    How much more explicit can the guy (GG)be?

    A broader discussion of certain of the issues RP has made an explicit part of his candidacy (i.e. a refutation of American hegemony) would be incredibly beneficial.

    This does not serve as an endorsement for his myriad of other positions.

    I'm sorry RP's position on abortion (which so many willfuly misstate)sticks in your craw. See the preceding paragraph.

    I abhor the War on Terror, and the War on Some Drugs, and the War on Planet Earth that is Republican environmental policy. My preferred candidate will likely never be nominated.

    So I satisfice. Get used to it.
