haha............well Hillary is almost at the bottom of your list!  And I wouldn't be too worried about McCain, he never really had a shot anyway.......

 

I like Hillary ok but she's not my favorite candidate.   Mostly I think it would be fun to have a woman for President but now I'm starting to wonder if she can even get the nomination!!

oh yeah, I like Gravel too and Paul is very popular with democrats as well as anti-war republicans........

My impression of Paul and Gravel is, they are in touch with the constitution.

Paul introduced himself in one debate as a 'Champion' of the constitution.

They provide a contrast, and demonstrate, how 'far out' some of our mainstream candidates have gone on issues so distant from the ideas of the Founding Fathers.

These candidates would have been gone a long time ago in an American election without the internet and talk radio, as a victim of the mainstream media. No where in the print media, or network TV do I see any fair articles and civil discussion about these two candidates. What are they so afraid of....I think I know.

I've heard it mentioned that Freerepublic is right wing for Bush, yet Paul winds up in the top 3 or 5 in most polling there, and there are alot of posts supporting him, or at least discussing him....VP

yes, I think Paul does have a lot of support!!  You should have seen him when he was on Real Time!   He wasn't on the panel but when it was time for the interview, Bill had him come out and join him at his desk.  As soon as he came on stage, everyone in the audience started cheering and basically going crazy for the guy!  And you know his audience is about 95% liberal.........Bill said he had never seen them act that way over a conservative!!

 

And when he answered questions, people continued to cheer.......it was pretty cool to see a republican get a reception like that!
