I think the issues he talks about deal more with the problems most poor Americans face especially African Americans.

He is against the so called War On Drugs which he's pointed out what most of us already know that it geared towards throwing many poor black people in prisons.

He's in favour of bring the Federal Reserve back to the people away from private bankers.

I used to like him but he lost me when hes said he would dismantle the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation). I think thats just a bit over the top.

I think it is accurate to state that none of the candidates are offering African Americans anything, so why vote for Clinton, Gulliani, Obama, McCain, or anyone else? If anything, we should vote for the one that is going to maximize our opportunity in this country we live in and not continue to fall for tokenship politics as if it is real change or progressive thinking.

As of right now, it looks like Ron Paul will get my vote...

Ron Paul is a racist it has been proven. Tne Guardian dug up past papers he wrote dissing blacks to the fullest. he is not a suitable candiate for black people for he hates them. I will find some links.

The point was not Ron Paul the point was the bias and influence of the media.
