the dems have the same stupid policy in like a dozen states including penn. the dems started it in an atempt to stop hostile crossover voting but none of it is legaly binding. the dems have tried to bring charges against rush limbaugh for incuraging rep. to do that but it was droped.

The two predominant political parties in this country are made up of dousche bags, so no surprise here.

[MorGrendel]

Yeah, just so surprised they are so openly douche bags.

I'm mad that both major parties have closed primaries in Maryland. They don't want Independents' opinions but they'll take our votes in November? Bah!

[MorGrendel]

Though I wish there was a multi-party system, it makes sense to me why independants are not allowed to vote in the primaries. Though believe me, if they could, I'd be one. Currently I'm a republican...

I used to think of myself as a Centrist, but now the rewriters of history are confusing it with moderatism and labeling douches like B. Clinton and T. Blair Centrist.

Fritz likes to call me a Libertarian, but they love the Jazz Flute too much for my liking.

I guess in idealogy I'm actually more a Constitutionalist.

I prefer to think I'm a Paulist, but that is not an offical party so far as I know.

However, I ask what happens if Ron Paul stays in?

All the above groups are pulling for Ron Paul, a good start.
And "ron paul run independent" garners 346,000 hits on Google, showing that there is some interest in this.
And then there is all of us Ron Paul Republicans...

Wait, now before you say it doesn't matter, last election went down 37% Democrat, 37% Repulican, and 26% Independent. YES, 26%. This is why they don't want outsiders messing with their nominations, as it could actually have an effect.

I don't know exactly what percent of voters the above groups are, but add it to the 26% Independents bring* and ask yourself can it best 34% . . . i.e. 8% more. 8% more and you find yourself with a different President**. Just a thought.

*(assuming they all vote Ron Paul)
**(This assumption is based on the idea that the Independents split the last vote 49% to 48%, so both major parties would lose an equal amount of votes from independent leaning party affliliates, such as myself.)
FYI: don't Google "John Mccain independent", it will make you very angry.
