hlaford 2 posts above...an example of someone who has spent way too much time in political science, and not enough in the real world (or in english composition apparently).

Try debating the points.

Check, say, on the growth rate of international trade pre- and post Bretton Woods. Read a little about monetarism, make your own statement about money supply and growth. Check out the concept of anomie and make your own statements about 21st century social fragmentation.

[For your info, I've lived in 5 countries and 10 cities, travelled the world for 30 years and speak several languages, of which English is not the most used. My world is, shall we say, hyper-real, as I am retired and tend bar in a Mediterranean port city. I type at night to get my knuckles back in shape after a busy day debating, shall we say, the high and low. My political science is grounded on experience, son, not academe.]

what dies that have to do with anything?
5 countries....traveled world for 30 years speaks several languages.....**Yawn*

I have lived in over a dozen countries speak 6 languages fluently and put my pants on the same way everyday!!

What it has to do with is (1) request that the issues under discussion be addressed, without ad hominem commentary, and (2) the muddled assumptions of the author were quite off the mark. Your post is a mere, albeit poorer for the aping, continuation of the same.

And if your wit is lacking and you cannot debate the substance, recuerda, ¡en boca cerrada no entran moscas! Me di wo to, kote sua, wo mame twe. Unya fle fle!

So what part of the OP`s request did you not comprende?

Your post is a mere, albeit poorer for the aping, continuation of the same, as is your post!

Tak wy mówicie kilka jezyki...Wielka sprawa Interesowac !

Pokój !!

Simply reply to this thread with a YES if you BELIEVE Ron Paul polls that are open to anyone are being hijacked my a limited number of Ron Paul supporters.
Simply reply NO if you believe open Ron Pauls are really indicative of Pauls actual numbers.

This way we can see REAL results.

Can you please explain how this "poll" was fixed? Between this, and you claiming that it is mathematically impossible for anyone posting on this forum to be active duty military, you have completely discredited yourself. I feel bad for the true liberals on this board, they get you AND Dave.

I will be analyzing and reporting the official results tomorrow.
If you said you would vote for Ron Paul because he would be the most easily beat by a Democrat I have not counted your vote as a Ron Paul vote.
If you have less than 500 posts your vote will not be counted.
If you said you would not vote for him because you think he has no chance and want your vote to go to one of the Republicans higher in the polls, I will count that as a Yes for Ron Paul since he is still your first choice.

Florida anyone?

Techs, you have reached a new low. First you wait as long as you can to tabulate votes, hoping
your view will win over time, then you institute rules after the fact.

LOL'z

Are you taking your ball and going home? :D

Ron Paul wouldn't be my first choice (or even my second), but if he somehow manages to win the Republican nomination I would most certainly vote for him against Clinton or Obama (the two I see as most likely to get the Democratic nomination).
