Bonus Question of the Week
What would the world be like without the United States?
Who would dominate? How advanced would technology be? How advanced would the humanities be? What would be the state of freedom? What would be the dominant methods of organizing government and markets? Which race would be considered the world’s dominant race?
Maybe I should have gotten that interview when I had the chance
The “unelectable” Ron Paul beat both Rudy Giuliani and John McCain at the Illinois Straw Poll at the State Fair. Note that the second-place finisher’s not even in the race officially. Romney had a surprisingly high score of 40%.
With reports of Hillary having a 30-point lead, it looks more and more like it’s going to be a Hillary-Obama ticket versus a Republican ticket with Mitt at the head and Fred Thompson as the VP.
While I would love to see Ron Paul as the Republican candidate, I think, as I said last night to Augur, that he really won’t come into his own as a candidate until the existing powers that be give us four or eight more years of Clintons.
Think about this, folks: If what I expect occurs, we will have had a period of 28 years in which the Executive Office of the United States is held by a member of one of two families. If this occurred in a Third-World country, we’d consider it an oligarchy. I just consider it the most outward sign of the evil and corruption that permeates our government at all levels.
