Re: current American politicians that you respect
Ron Paul - he sticks to what he says, is consistant, and has a lot of interesting ideas that need to be put out there
Al Gore - I respect him a lot, and would respect him even more if he were to run. I think he is the only democrat I could ever cast a vote for. And by ever, I mean in this election. He came out against the war before any public official, and I respect that as well.
john Edwards - for manning up to making a mistake in voting for Iraq, unlike Hillary who blames Bush. Obviously he did it for political reasons, but at least he did it.
Kucinich - again, for being consistant and not basing his decisions on what he thinks will be the popular vote.
Gore/Obama 2008! or Ron Paul/whoever 2008 ! I know, it seems my views are extremly messed up... I want consistancy mainly, don't think Paul has a chance, and even though I want a conservative, I don't think any other republican is worth voting for. Gore is the only one left.
