Just proves our society and culture rewards liars, thieves and cheats and ignores honest hard working people. This is obvious when examining almost every facet of our society.

So angsty!

Not angsty, just the truth.

We reward polish, not substance.

We constantly have to remind ourselves not to judge the book by it's cover, but we all know the cover sells the book (so to speak) - we live on marketing and advertising, ten second sound bytes...

It's the reason Ron Paul is dismissed and neatly packaged Obama or Romney get all the press, or train wrecks like Newt...

Paul is dismissed because he doesn't believe in evolution at least by me. I won't even get into his issues because I can't get by his evolution stance.

OK fine - that point and your stance noted.

That's not why main stream media dismisses him - the majority of the country literally doesn't believe in evolution, so that doesn't factor in to why he's dismissed by the media.

And more to the point, highlighting such a out of context position instead of focusing on his more substantial positions (which we have literally decades of context to substantiate) proves my point.

BS - you dont dismiss romney and he too doesnt believe in evolution. Mormons are pretty hardcore in their beliefs.

Whether you believe me or not is irrelevant. I've stated it a few times now why I won't support Paul. Ask Look and Reese. What does Mormon have anything to do with anything. I am not voting for Romney either, which I've also stated.

Go back to doing whatever is you are doing, because paying attention isn't it.

Name three main stream candidates that unequivocally admit to, and promote the theory of evolution.

I couldn't. I don't follow politics that closely. I only know about Paul's stance because the video was posted here. Would it make you feel beter if I just dismiss him because of whatever reason makes you feel better?

I haven't made up my mind of whom I am voting for. I reserve the right to change my mind whenever I want. No matter who it is I'll be not happy and holding my nose while voting.

Mormons dont believe in evolution. Romney is mormon. Therefore romney does not believe in evolution.

Do you now dismiss romney?
