A politician in favor of gun bans and confiscation.
Personally, I'd be more likely to trust a gang member with an RPG than vote for such a politician.

3. Heh
Politicians. At least gang members are more or less honest about their criminality.

I'm not aware of any politicians advocating a firearms ban. But I haven't been paying that much attention.

5. I support you being able to vote
for anyone you wish to. If you trust Sarah Palin or Michele Bachmann, feel free to trust and vote for them.

For me the economy, wars and union rights rank just a little higher.

6. I support you being able to vote
for anyone you wish to. If you trust Hitler or Mussolini, feel free to trust and vote for them.

For me the BoR ranks just a little higher.

7. IMHO...
Palin/McCain is be better than McCain/Palin but neither is a ticket that is going anywhere.

I checked a list of candidates and they all strike me as what not to vote for.

12. I know the feeling...
...I'm a Scotsman for the most part and my wife is Armenian & Croatian.

What we lack in empathy we gain twice in circumspection.
