Why should Ron Paul be the next president of the United States?

Why should Ron Paul be the next president of the United States? He's 71 years old. He has 20 years of experience in Congress. He served admirably in the United States military as a doctor, yet he's not pro-war. He believes the United States should not only get out of Iraq and Afghanistan, but all the 150+ countries we're currently in.

This would save us a huge amount of money, strengthen our economy, and balance the budget. Ron Paul is a strict believer in the United States Constitution, and that's rare nowadays. For example, the United States Constitution does not allow torture of prisoners. Any "cruel and unusual" punishment of prisoners is not allowed.

The Bush administration, however, is considered to have practiced torture on prisoners at Guantanamo Bay by Amnesty International, and is also accused by Amnesty International of setting up secret prisons in Europe where prisoners have allegedly been taken and tortured. At a recent Republican Party presidential debate candidates Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani and Tom Tancredo all said they supported the Bush administration's practices of torture of prisoners.

This is just one example of how a lot of our modern politicians are not "upholding and defending" our Constitution as they have sworn that they would do. I think a real conservative is going to be supporting, upholding, and adhering to our Constitution. I could add that the Constitution says the Congress is to declare war, even though it has become somewhat of a tradition in recent years for the president to unilaterally start wars. I think it would be a breath of fresh air to have as president again someone who really believes in the Constitution the founding fathers of this country set up, instead of some New World Order craziness promoted by some secret societies. I think Ron Paul is a real patriot for continuing to believe in the principles this nation was founded on.

Time Magazine`s Halo 3 article

http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1657825-2,00.html

Now, I find this article amusing, and offensive at the same time. Here is a guy who will take some bashing by slanting a negitive spin on Halo 3, and he knew it. He had to have know it. So I give him points for that. Halo 3 pre-order sales have breached over 4 million, he`s bound to get some criticism some where along the lines by all Halo fans. HoweverHe comes off kind of nuetral, but I find what he says about the gaming community in general offensive.

"There`s an opportunity beyond video games, too, for Halo to break out of the ghetto and become a mainstream, mass-market, multimedia entertainment property."

I don`t find it acceptable that he uses the term ghetto (more than once) to describe any form of buisness/entertainment outlet. Ghetto is and should be considered an offensive term. For one, video games climbed out of the "ghetto" with the release of the PS2 and Xbox game consoles. Video gaming became main stream, and probally way before that when we all sat in our rooms hooked up on our Nintendo or Sega systems. In my honest opinion, using the word Ghetto to describe any broad category of people (gamers) is not only morally wrong, but the complete wrong usage of the word.

"They`re happy in their invisible geek ghetto."
