Best Presidential Candidate, Republicans

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the since-you-can't-build-robo-reagan dept.

A few days ago we posted a story for you to discuss the best presidential candidates for Super Tuesday, but I figured it would be an interesting idea to try that again, but split the discussion into 2 halves. This is the Republican half — please only discuss the Republican candidates in this story. Huckabee, McCain, and Romney only.

  1. What about Ron Paul? by robhall · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Not that I'm a huge fan but if I had to vote for a Republican, I would vote for Ron Paul.

      "Q. A plane with Huckabee, McCain, and Romney crashes. Who's saved?"

      This would mean either Hillary or Obama would win, which means every individual in this country loses. Both of them think they can spend your money better than you and both think they can make decisions on your health better than you.

    You had to leave Ron Paul out of the summary so all of his insane, techie fans could turn this thread into a giant flamewar, right? Right?

    Incoming "Media Bias Against Ron Paul" anger in 5... 4...

    You do realise that Ron Paul IS on the Ballot? He may not be very likely to win, but, by those criteria, Huckabee shouldn't be discussed either.

  6. I'm voting for Ron Paul by pyite69 · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    He is the only candidate who defends Federalism.

  8. Is there a media bias against Duncan Hunter? by the+computer+guy+nex · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Because both Hunter and Paul have the same chance of winning.

    Halivar:

    Good post, but I disagree with you on the render to Caesar line. I'm a full-heart Christian, but I don't see that verse in Romans, or any of Romans actually, as pertaining to me or any Christian today. It was written to the Christians in Rome, for the Christians in Rome, to dissuade them from upsetting the government of Rome as God had planned to use Rome in his judgment against the ancient Israelites. Since God judged the Israelites, banished from the ancient Israel, destroyed their Temple forever, and forced them to the ends of the earth, using Rome as His method of vengeance, I believe that book to be over and done, but a great history lesson on how God operates against those who whored themselves with government (ancient Israel whored itself with Rome, against God's desires for them).

    While most Evangelical Futurist Christians may disagree with me, I can see absolutely no weight in their argument to follow Romans in any way, shape or form. Christ left Christians to be good stewards of the world, using peace, charity, love and hope to change things. Government is war, theft, hate and depression, the complete anti-thesis to Christ's role for us.
