Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) discussed, at a press conference, on Sept. 10, 2008, the rigged DemRepublicrats’ system that currently dominates the political arena in the US and blocks genuine democracy. He added the “process isn’t working” and agrees with critics that the flawed process is a “fraud” on the voters. Rep. Paul said that he has declined to endorse John McCain for president. As for Barack Obama, he charged that “he isn’t for change.” Joining him at the event, held at the National Press Club in Washington, DC were three Third Party presidential candidates; Ralph Nader (Independent Party), Chuck Baldwin (Constitution Party) and Cynthia McKinney (Green Party). Most people, as result of the rigged system, Rep. Paul alleged end up voting for the “lesser of two evils.” He also brought up the legacy of the late author and historian, Carroll Quigley, whose books exposed the working of a Shadow Government.

Wake up people. It is an ongoing deception brokered by the powerful in yet another turn of the cards to make us believe that we need WAR and more government intervention to survive.

It is funny a bunch of people who mocked Ron Paul one year ago (before the Stock Market fell) are now paying attention.

akulkis- It’s not about “system of gov’t”.
Proportional representation (PR)Democracy is based on the principle that any group of like-minded voters should win legislative seats in proportion to its share of the popular vote. In an election for ten seats, 10% of like-minded voters win one seat, 40% wins four seats and so on. Whereas winner-take-all awards 100% of the representation to a 50.1% majority, PR allows voters in a minority to win their fair share of seats.

I was oritinally passed around as RepublicRATS, because they think so much alike, but the morons missed the point. Then I thought DemonCONS. Yours is much more to the point. I like it. DemonCROOKS.

jibbi4one… no, you knucklehead
A “proportional representative democracy” is a PARLIAMENTARY system.
We have a Republic (each Senator or Congressman represents a distinct geographic area — Senators: the whole state; Congressmen : a district within a state)

Vote 3rd Party. If either McCain (the RepubliCON) or Obama (the DEMONcrat) are elected they would be the first president not natural born (born in a state of the union) as required by the Constitution. Look up the facts. Obama is being sued by a lifelong democrat to reveal his real birth certificate (the long form from Kenya). Obama has been trying to conceal everything about his past, which is seedy. McCain was born in the Republic of Panama.

Not saying U.S. is a PR democracy.
I feel it should adopt PR democracy policy to elect it’s leaders.
U.S. is one of the oldest constitutional republics in the world.
Ok…So what?? I don’t care if U.S. is a constitutional monarchy of cheese.
You can pick any law to support a debate on the issue. See the Constitution; amend XII
I’ll start with this one:
ART.I. BILL OF RIGHTS
SEC.3. All elections shall be free & equal.
U have tyranny with the 2 party system now in U.S.!

All the third party candidates and their constituency need to unite! Awesome proposal Ron Paul! Unite and overcome or they will divide and conquer us.

jibbi4one, calling the U.S. a “proportional representative (PR)democracy” is going the long way to define the governmental structure of the U.S. We are very simply a “Constitutional Republic”. I encourage you to look that up on Wikipedia or look at the other websites that discuss that subject. Also, keep in mind that our Founding Fathers knew the differences between a “Republic” and a “Democracy” and very much hated the idea of making the U.S. a Democracy.

We don’t have to play their game. Why can’t third party candidates get together and buy an hour of TV time and have their own debate? I for one would LOVE to see a real debate in lieu of the unpaid commercials passing as debates nowadays.

Ron Paul makes sense, but he won’t win. Also wouldn’t it be better to have more than 3 reps in all the debates? I think its so unfair, it’s like that in Canada also. I see newcommers get excluded often because they don’t “have the timed experience & historical actions qualified for office” Sometimes old reps cant even get in. These claims are obviously done by the ones who have “so called experience” Obama and Mccain would obviously tell you this man is no good for office.

I commend you ‘ianfagerstrom’ for supporting Ron Paul the way you did…however, it was NOT for naught…something powerful was started and will bear tremendous fruit in due time…think of the acorn that is planted in the ground…it does not spring up overnight, yet, in its own time, and according to natural law, will grow up to become a mighty oak!

It is too late. He won’t win. But I am with you. If this country had half a brain and the media was not run by these corporate goons, he would be our next president. Instead, we got John 6 pack and Socialism to choose from.

So college kid who is temping at a bank office building processed that. He would have checked for a check, cash, or credit card info and the rest gets discarded. No one takes to time to read all the comments on those things. Might and well just throw the form out yourself.

we still have to try, because this two party system needs to go, and the most important part is getting your opinion out there, not just voting for the winner.

Voting for Ron Paul is inconsequential because he isn’t running for president. You’re wasting your time by even going to vote. I supported him, volunteered for him, and donated to his campaign, but it was all for naught.
