Then the country doesn't agree with Ron Paul and there's no point in trying to elect him.

[GlyphGryph]

Since the public only agrees with people who look pretty and make for good TV, I think we might as well stop bothering to try at all then, right?

[Heron TSG]

I agree with quite a few politicians that aren't pretty.

Politics aren't a linear progression from "conservative" to "liberal."

If the country agreed with Ron Paul's views enough to elect him, they probably wouldn't agree with many of the GOP's policies. Maybe enough to have a majority in the house/senate, but not by a huge margin.

With very few exceptions American politicians at the national level do adhere to this.

Considering how much Bush accomplished with only 50 seats in the Senate, how much of majority do you think it takes?

Unfortunately for all of us, Barbarossa, you are not the incarnation of the American public. But I have a feeling we'd all be better off if you were, heh.

I'm sure Newt Gingrich will be flattered by your appraisal of his good looks.

I really should just add a blanket "no cynicism" rule to the OP or something.  I mean, I'm cynical as Hell, but dammit you people are depressing.

I can't even name a pretty politician. I'm sure they exist, but I don't know of any.

No one would bother to read it.

But Aqizzar, that perfect hair! Doesn't it just make you want to swoon?

[Descan]

Manly swoon, of course. It IS Aqizzar we are talking about here.

[Aqizzar]

I admit, I have a weakness for jowls, rosacea, and thinning silver.  It speaks of character and experience.  I swoon as one would catch under the gaze of a king, resolutely and only.

I'm really sorry and no offense, but you look like the next Republican candidate for president. 

It's the hair!

[MaximumZero]

See, I was going to jokingly offer to make all the running Republicans ugly, but that...that right there?

That's living proof that politics is already ugly enough.

Obama seems to be unworried.

... also possibly somewhat condescending toward SC voters, heh.
