If you like the way things have been going since Nixon was in office, then you are in luck... Rudy, Hillary, Mitt, Barack, John (both of them), and Fred are all pretty much the same. A vote for any of these is a vote for the status quo.

Then you, like I, am out of luck. There are a few "fringe candidates", but the media has convinced the majority of voters that they are unelectable crazies that have no place in modern politics. Of these, Ron Paul is doing the best, with around 10% of the voters supporting him. Gravel and Kucinich are also still around, but with much less support.

Actually voting for Hillary is a vote for a woman which is not status quo by any means, and voting for Obama is voting for a black which is not status quo by any means. But merely voting for Ron is a vote for status quo because he's just another white man who has been deeply a part of the system for his whole life, whether he was on one side of it or another. If someone thinks the Republicans will ever shrink government again or respect individuals, then they are liberally stupid. However, I don't for a moment believe that any of these three will win. It will have to be not the brainiest candidate but the stupidest one. So look for the one who appeals to the gut instinct and who looks the best doing it. That is the person who will win in Populist America.

You mean a persons gender matters? Beliefs are what counts, not what is between the legs. Hillary has been in office, so to speak, for the last 16 years. Voting for Hillary is a vote for the status quo, unless the last 16 years don't count?

I would urge you to do some research before voting, an uneducated vote is worse than no vote. Although most of the candidates are part of the status quo that does not mean that who ever wins will not have a huge impact on everyones life. I would suggest taking 30 mins to go over the candidates stance on issues (wikipedia) it is real easy.
I could tell you who I want to win, but that does not mean you will want them to win. Do some research for the sake of all the lives effected by such a huge event.

ron paul says he won't enforce federal marijuana laws, and has more support than the few dems for it, as I recall
he also personally feels abolition of criminal drug laws is best
