I have become a "one-issue" voter.  (well, actually, three issues: No drug prohibition, no imperial adventures, no surveillance state)

As Glenn Greenwald convincingly sets forth, that makes me a Ron Paul voter.

Will I like returning to the gold standard?  Probably not too much, but at least I won't be shoveling money down Goldman Sachs gaping maw if it turns out that way.

Do I worry about Roe v. Wade and a Paul selected Supreme Court?  Some, although I think that enough states will hold out for womens reproductive freedom.

Bottom line, when I look over the landscape of presidential candidates, the one who really answers my deepest yearnings (like my mother said, "he just wants to get high and get laid") and promises to reverse the worst trends of the imperial Amerika I have come to loathe and fear is.....(How can this be possible?)....Ron Paul.

I have seriously had it up to my throat with the oppressive war on people of color and the poor that is subsumed under the facile "war on drugs"

Prohibition must end.  The Dems can't or won't, and Obama thinks it's some kind of joke that people are incarcerated on the flimsiest of rationales.  In numbers reaching the millions.

Enough already.

Junky liberation.  It's time has come.

UPDATE:  All God's junkies will have to wait a little longer--Ron Paul is a . stomp down racist, and really not suitable for the presidency.  Oh shit....That was a short flirtation with libertarianism for Rogie...
