Two things:

1) I have to admit that I spent some time thinking about the post we had a few days ago about prejudice being used for a good end.

A real-world example that we might all want to think about is provided in the movie Outrage! where republican lawmakers who make anti-gay laws are outted by the gay community to the rest of the world--this uses prejudice to get those republicans out of office, because the republicans gay-hating voters will now gay-hate the republican.

I'm not saying this is good or bad. Just a real-world example.
I retract some of my harsher language on that front.

2) Who the HELL would run as Ron Paul's VP if he actually gets the nomination?
Can you imagine which whackjob would WANT to run with Ron Paul? Who's crazy enough? Any guesses? What's the funniest ticket you could realistically imagine?

Gary Johnson could rebolt back to the GOP if Paul taps him for VeeP

I assume you are referencing Paul moving to the Libertarian Party because the GOP will have him killed before they allow him to be installed as their candidate for POTUS.

I have always felt a Paul/Johnson ticket would be very tough for the Democrats (who still mostly strict Prohibitionists) to beat.

Lankers, I can just see that bumper sticker: "Paul/Cain: do it for the LULZ"

No, I was talking hypothetically about Paul getting the R ticket for POTUS

Paul/Johnson would be an interesting 3rd party ticket tho
