This will be my first time voting, this presidential election. Out of all the candidates I think that Ron Paul was the most logical and most legit. After seeing many videos on youtube blatantly spammed as propoganda, I almost feel like whoever funded them wishes anyone wins except for him.

I guess he appeals to my engineering background.
I know I'm young and may be naive, but can someone please explain why my logic is faulty? It is just not clicking for me. Please don't flame me.

Obama and Romney both seem like terrible choices in comparison, yet are flooded with support and win at the polls which I think is bullshit.

blantant propoganda #1: Dishonorable Disclosures - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-Xfti7qtT0&feature=g-logo-xit) within 4 days, this video has "reached" over a mill views- hard to believe. The video escapes the issue of why these things are happening and instead goes deep in trying to blame Obama for the fact that they leaked.

The likes and views are heavily gamed in this video and it is also heavily sponsored and featured on youtube. The production of the video is professional and short time framed, only leaves one to question the motive for all of this expenditure. They seek to address almost all of Ron Paul's points covered on his earlier speech.

I like Ron . It's just that he is like an ostrich on foreign policy. In this video I adhere with him 100% but on other issues I think he sticks his had in the ground and pretends nothing is going on. If you're the noble power house, then you can't just be idle when real evil is out in the world.with great power comes great responsibility. Spiderman all over again. Not saying we should be the world police either, but we know what other countries can become a real threat quickly, so let's not fool ourselves.

I'm just shocked that this guy has a good chance of winning.
