Because despite being an unstable, old man. His honesty and commitment to the progressive cause would make him a far superior option to Clinton, who is an ear splitting, pseudoleftist, conservative, war monger.

You get a check from the government at the end of the year, which increases if you make less.

I'm not because the Minnesota caucus isn't like Iowa's apparently so I'll be voting for Obama since I won't get a chance to change my vote.

He doesn't have the infrastructure to make ballots...pretty much anywhere.  (Except for the really easy states)

His plan is to apparently petition all the third parties to nominate him as a fusion candidate.


LIBERTARIAN!
GREEN!
CONSTITUTION!
PROHIBITION!
REFORM!


BY YOUR POWERS COMBINED I AM MIKE GRAVEL!

Had to mention that.

Because he's the candidate out there that most closely matches my views.

And we share a sense of humor to boot. How much better can a presidential candidate I get? Honestly?

He fights for freedom and I admire him for that.

Also he has this whole psychedelic angle going for him that I dig. I won't actually vote for him though.
