If that's his position, Paul needs to go independent and act like a Republican Ralph Nader.

I, not being Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!), have not decided a full year in advance of the election.

The Kansas primary is in 6 months, and the candidates are Ron Paul (at least he's honest), Perry (his strategy as Governor was to pray for rain rather than actually do something about Texas' growing water problems), Michelle Bachmann (either a liar, or very stupid, probably a little bit of both), and Mitt Romney (hypocrite). I will be voting for Ron Paul, but if he were not an option, I would probably also still be undecided.

Gallup ran a poll with Obama v. 4 GOP'ers, including Paul.

Among registered voters Obama is statistically tied with Paul, Perry, and Romney.  Paul is just as relevant as any of the mainstream GOP candidates.

Obama is so awful, he's barely beating Bachman.  :lol:

He want to cut FEMA funding....here's a nice little quote about Aid to people who were effected by Mississippi River flooding.

“If it’s too dangerous (for people to live there), why dump the responsibility on the taxpayer,”

eff that, you ignorant old baffoon. I guess we should all move away from the West Coast, due to the danger of earth quakes, everyone must leave Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas due to tornadoes....don't even get him started on the entire state of Hawaii.

I think you're missing the point. It's because the government fucks everything up, even disaster relief. Ask hurricane Katrina. It's another chance for the government to hire incompetent people with no accountability. Sometimes throwing more money at something doesn't make it better. Look at public schools. They suck. Besides that's why we have things like the Red Cross.

Not to mention, FEMA is the epitome of "big government". They have the power to displace entire populations, and can override the constitution for whatever reason they want, enact their own executive orders, among other things. It has bad news written all over it.

As far as the President and foreign policy, the job has just become a puppet for the corporations. Or, as George Carline would say, the "owners" of the country:
