Would you vote for an 80 year old Ron Paul in 2016?

As long as he is still breathing, I would cast my vote for him and hope to squeeze out at least one term with him alive.

Would any of you feel that was a risky move because of his age?

It's a rhetorical question because neither Paul or anyone like him would ever be allowed near the office. But wouldn't vote for him even if he was. Paul and libertarians in general have some interesting things to offer, but all that "state and local control" stuff is just a recipe for racism and various other conservative BS. I grew up in the South many years ago and got a close up look at the way conservatives really want to do things. No thanks.

Yes, I would vote for an elderly Ron Paul for President, but I like Gary Johnson, Bill Still or Jesse Ventura better--because they're not as socially conservative as Ron or Rand Paul is, as Libertarians.

No. He'd just get blamed for all the messes they've already made.

I might vote for Hitlery, though (right before expating).

I think the country needs ... no.. deserves to get her -- good and hard, too.

Lol. True. I would vote for Gary. I am starting a libertarian party in my community so at least there are seeds of liberty in my town.

I like Ron Paul more than Gary Johnson as he is more Constitutional than Johnson (I voted for Ron Paul in the last Primary election). Sometimes Gary Johnson says some things that make me cringe. However, Gary Johnson is far better that the two candidates we were made to believe were our ONLY choices. After the last Primary election cycle and seeing the blatant corruption in the voting process, I am 100% convinced that we have no choice on who gets elected. The right guy for the job will never be allowed to have it...period. I will still go out and vote during the Primaries. Then, WHEN they pull out the two bought and paid for candidates that were chosen by the elites before voting even started...I'll vote Libertarian. US Politics are a complete joke...it amazes me that people believe that it's legit.
