Not only Mystery Mitt a prolific flip-flopper... no one knows what he plans to do as president, if he is mistakenly elected.

Didn't we get enough rhetoric and promises, a few years ago. We saw how that turned out, and Romney will bring more of the same establishment agenda puppetry!

Follow the money!

You needed an "Other" box. I won't vote for him because I don't think he represents the mindset of most Americans. I think he doesn't even know what the constitution really says or represents. Other than having good Presidential looks,( He's a pretty boy) he has no substance and is out of touch with most Americans. I don't think Paul will even be in the running, although he is smarter than his Republican opponents. But, he doesn't fit the Republican mold that they want. Therefore, Obama is the best choice we have. I hope Hillary runs in 2016.( I wish she were running now. I have more faith in her intelligence and experience than any of the candidates.)

I disagree with you. I have been a teacher for 36 years and know the Constitution well. (The REAL one, not some make-shift distorted version of it that some people THINK they know .) My husband, who recently passed away from Pancreatic cancer, was an American History Professor for three decades. I am well aware of the Constitution and all that it stands
for. AND what is says and means. I have countless documents and books on American history and the Constitution in my library at home. Many Americans think they know what it says and means and yet they are bastardizing it to represent what they WANT it to say, NOT what it does say. If any President broke the laws that it stated, they would be prosecuted. Does the name Nixon ring a bell? Plus, I am sure you are well aware, that EVERY law in the United States is not explicitly stated in the Constitution.

ya well Obama was a constitutional professor, and either he ignores it or doesn't know it. you keep your opinion and I'll keep mine. I don't trust anyone connected to the government. that includes teachers. you probably think fluoride is good for you too?

Seriously? At some point you will have to make an educated decision and vote. My suggestion is to take an American History class and/or class on the Constitution. Then afterwards make an educated decision on what you heard, learned, and what you believe. Otherwise, you cannot respond objectively and understand the facts that our forefathers wanted when they drew up the document. Education is a wonderful tool to help people make decisions. i would never be one to tell people how to vote. BUT coming to conclusions based on knowledge is the best tool people have on making decisions.

I went to law school and studied constitutional law, got A+ and graduated with a 3.4 GPA. I know the constitution thank you.

L K to Teri- O... 2012/05/02 19:16:05 (edited)

But your Bio (information) says some college. NOT college graduate or Masters or Law degree. In order to get into law school you have to first graduate from college. There isn't a law school in the country that would allow you into their program without graduating college first. You then need to take exams to enter into a graduate program. Either your bio is wrong, or you are just saying that to try to impress me. If you look at my photos, you can see me holding an award with other teachers. My Bio is accurate. Now, even junior colleges have history classes and PRE- Law classes on the constitution, which you might have taken and done well in.I don't doubt that you took a class in it. But, you certainly did not go to law school. If you did, your comments
would be worded very differently. My brother is an attorney and trust me, you in no way have the vocabulary of an attorney. Plus, the GPA doesn't mean a thing if you can't pass the boards. And 3.4 in this day and age is not going to get you a job. You need at least a 4.0 to get into a firm. You have to take MANY classes on various aspects of law and one class on the constitution isn't going to make you an expert. He went to Columbia Law school in NYC and actually worked on several cases involving Jackie Kennedy in the late 1960's and then Geraldine Ferraro before he moved to practice law in Chicago. He and Ms. Ferraro, who was a truly wonderful woman, were good friends for years before her passing.

Well, you should be proud of yourself for getting an associates decree. With that behind you, you could go on, should you decide to, and get a full degree and then go on to law school. We can always use good lawyers. Or good teachers. Then you could teach your own Constitution class. Good luck to you. The establishment doesn't really brainwash you. I have always danced to the beat of a different drummer, but the way my students learn made administrations realize they my quirky fun way of teaching worked. My students enjoyed my classes. Administrators would sit in my class to find out why students loved coming to school.( I was an actress before I became a teacher and I love putting on a show. Hey, whatever gets kids to enjoy learning!!). I work with children so I dress up and involve them. They love it. You know, you can make the establishment work for you, if you show them how effective you are. Education is always a good thing. Learning in any format is always eye opening and wonderful. I encourage you to not give up on your studies. I just retired after 36 years of teaching to help out my son and his wife with their second child, who was born early. After they need me less I have decided that I want to return to school so that I can teach teachers, not just ch...

After they need me less I have decided that I want to return to school so that I can teach teachers, not just children. The school system has called and wants to hire me back to work with teachers, because my test scores were so high. My way of teaching is involving students and using project based learning where students work in groups and do presentations so that each student can work to their specific strength. That and a positive attitude using humor in my lectures....I have often thought about going back and getting my doctorate. ( Just because that is what comes after you get your masters.) I am not the kind of person that would call myself Dr.
(That to me in education is rather pretentious.) But, I love learning. I am published in the educational world and would one day like to be published in the world of fiction. I am currently working on a mystery right now. We have to keep giving ourselves goals. That makes life exciting!! Take care. Good luck to you.

There are a million scholarships out there. If you go to a University they will tell you available scholarships. Plus, if you keep your GPA up you can get an academic scholarship. My children both received full academic scholarships to colleges and graduated Cum Laude. ( With honors) They worked their buns off, but the school paid their tuition because they kept their GPA at a 4.0. There a many other scholarships available if you search them out. Don't give up on yourself!! You can even google them. Plus there is the Pell grant depending on your income and other grants you can receive. Money shouldn't be what holds you back. You seem smart and therefore I am sure you could do well.

I want Ron Paul to be our next POTUS. But let's stop pretending, it isn't going to happen. I hope RP will be Romney's VP but I doubt that will happen either. The best thing we can do now is vote for Romney just to get Obama out. Then we can take it from there. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE WILL EVER DO IN OUR LIFETIMES IS TO VOTE OBAMA OUT!!

Then you're an idiot.

Even Ron Paul says that a program like the Masscare is Consitutitonal since it originated at the state level. Pauls contention is that it wasn't helpful for the state - not that it was unconstitutional.

And unlike a number of other GOP candidates Romney understands the 10th Amendment and the difference in power between the state and federal level.

Add to that the fact that we're sitting under a President who is as clear a Constitutional enemy as we've seen and that sitting this out keeps him in office. You're doing more harm to the document than not.

Ron Paul is the only hope our Country has. I don't agree with all of his policies, but the ones that matter the most on the Economy and Big Government I think needs to be stopped before we completely become just another Socialist nation.

If it is Romney, I will probably vote 3rd party. I just would like to see a ground swell of republicans and Democrats just say no to the 2 people that they plan on giving us. Throwing your vote away rhetoric needs to stop, and people need to stop being sheeple and vote your conscious instead of throwing your vote away in reality by voting for a Dimwit Dem in Obama or a Rascally Rep. in Romney. He bought the primaries. Shouldn't even be on the ballot in my opinion and Obama's not elligible

Jericho to hasher 2012/04/30 21:17:13

Not according to recent Polls. Romney is almost Dead even with Obama and Paul is about 6-7% ahead of Obama. More Conservative how? Socially? The man changes his mind and votes very liberally when it comes to Social Conservative views such as Same Sex Marriage and Abortion? Fiscally? He is just as Big Government and Socialist based like Obama on almost every Economic and Political issue. You show me where Romney is more conservative than Obama because he's not.

I don't see it that way, but letting Obama get elected to a second term will be a defined disaster, all Paul's going to accomplish is to dilute the Republican vote and get Obama re-elected. You may vote for "freedom" and "liberty" but what you'll get is another four years of Obama's mismanagement.
