    There are far too many write ins for the media to give who gets a handful of votes. I think I've received a vote or two for president, etc., but I've never heard it mentioned.

    8 years ago the present Bush was running. I see no reason that any family in the USofA should have more than one president. So I voted Libertarian. That second Bush President did pretty good the first term so I voted for him on the second term.

    I've read what appears to be Ron Paul's campaign web page. He has a problem that precludes him getting my vote:

    1. His dissing of McLain is unkind and un Presidential
    2. Ron Paul cannot get elected

    I used to be in Software (computer programs, you know) Verification. How many States have anybody checking Electronic Voting Validity? Answer: probably not one state.

    As we found out in Oklahoma when the FBI sent 1/3 of our country commissioners to jail - if nobody is watching, then somebody is cheating.

    What the heck is this thread all about? I can't get the page that's referenced; the site says 'on maintenance.'

    Why post an ambiguous title, and the OP nothing but a URL? The Democratic way?

    In Oklahoma you can only vote for delegates pledged to vote for a candidate. If you write any name on any ballot, you invalidate that ballot. So if one writes in someone on a presidential ballot, they might well invalidate their vote for their Representative in Washigton

    read the hyper-text:

    politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com
    /2008/05/08
    /former-republican-to-seek-libertarian-presidential-nomination/

    It is obvious the subject: Ron Paul, Libertarian Presidential nominee.

    I have yet to read the page myself. :1_grouphug:
