..or do all the Democratic and Republican candidates start to look/seem the same after a while?

I mean, when looking between so n' so n' so from the Republican party, they seem to be the same.

And the same between the Democratic candidates too, no?

Does anyone really stick out from either side despite what the polls are saying?

inimalist
Ron Paul does, as do some of the less voted for candidates, but the mainstream of what a country wants to vote for normally limits the variability amongst who can really be run.

The party nominations, imho as a non-American, seem to be "what face do we want to put on our brand". You want diversity, teach kids about more than the left/right political spectrum and do it before grade 10.

I still can't find a solid platform for any presidential canidate (unless they are republican and just bash Clinton).

They always look the same. That is why I avoid either end of the spectrum.

Like our resident minimalist* stated, Ron Paul is probably very different than either side.

*Yes, I did that on purpose.

What does it matter? Big business runs this country anyway. You keep hearing about how much money each candidate has raised. Well.....somebody is going to want something for all that money.

yes, they all seem the same because they all say what it takes to get elected.

The reason they look the same is because they are the same. There's no real differance when you get right down to thier policies.


Both support taxes
Both support government involvement in our personal lives
Both support death to Americans
(The only differance is democrats support it before you're born
And republicans support it after you're eighteen)
Both want to fence-up our borders not so much to keep illegals out but keep us in


It's ****ing ridoucles. Evidently America's slogan should just be
"Hello thar: Would you like to die now or later?"

The only decent politician is Alan Keyes.

This country is having more and more resembalnce to nazi germany.

Okay, so there's no gas chambers
And we loooove the jews (which arguably is a minus lol)


But so what? It's still a blindly nationalistic country, with corrupt leaders, and death around every corner.


Hitler may have died, but the nazis won world war two...

I think US is allright, like alll other countries it has its faults but if you dont like it you have someting called free elections where you can change the leadership


looking at this its obvious ignorance won

Personally I blame botox for the bland, rubber-mask facial appearance of politicians. Or maybe it's in the water.

If you want a politician who still is capable of facial expression, there's always Dennis Kucinich, I suppose.

You know, you have a point. I really do not disagree with you.

I could get a nice IT job in Toronto that probably pays better than my current one.

lol, its VERY close (technically our southern border is just a bit further south than your northern border), but for people who face a Canadian winter, being able to say they are further south than some people in California is a great way to keep sane.

He's right, both parties are the same. Both take the bulk of their financial contributions from the same corporate donors who then want whichever party is in power to govern favorably to the interests of large corporations who will pull the plug on the money if they don't. Both major parties are two sides of the same coin.

After Clinton and Blair, people hae been trying to go for that Centrist option that the people so popularly supported. Of course, Bush ****ed it up.
