I just think there's more to your stance than a party. Unfortunately humans like to categorize and neatly package everything... (something that works to the detriment of music as well) It really bugs me.
Let me give you my major reason for supporting RP.
I'm partially blind. As most of you probably know, SSI provides government aid to people in my predicament. Now, that's nice and all, but it engenders apathy in the visually impaired. They don't want to work. They don't want to do anything. People with enormous potential squander it daily on monthly checks.
RP wants to stop this.
Oh, and attempting to stem the inflation problem is also a good thing.

well, my mom is permanently disabled, so i know intimately what the System is like, and how ppl abuse it, and how ppl how actually need help are lumped into this group, and are responsible for clawing out of it.
Kusinich had a lot more going for him, in respect to peoples civil rights, dignities. he was open minded (IMO) and I got riled up listening to him speak. RP did not do that to me, or Huckabee, or Dodd, Biden,Clinton. Obama sounded good, but hes got a bad habit of playing neutral - and not voting, but just 'voting present' - i don't like wafflers.
I was very mad at Al Gore for not fighting hard enough when he was, to me, robbed of his victory- but now i see his point. he went to work for the greater good, and was rewarded.
- I wish DK would rise higher in Washington, and affect some real change. - I think he is too 'real' to ever be president - his 'tv image' is all wrong for what shallow American taste have come to accept as palatable.

So, how does it feel to spout Hillary propoganda? I'm sure she's appreciative. Hell, she didn't even have to pay you to like she does her attack dogs.
Take a look at what a "Present" vote in the IL Senate means, and why people make them.

If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it. - Ernest Hemingway If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it. In the law courts, in business, in government. There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent. -Cormac MacCarthy He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus

reading comprehension is vital in a purely text chat.
although - i am on the fence about the present vs yea/nay - i know how sticky all that shit can be. but your delivery 'sucks the geh', as the kids say.
