The AG has bent over to be fair to a bunch of race card liberal fools enough is enough the left is out to cheat Texas voters out of there votes and we need to stop these crying democrats from cheat the voters from there votes. The Judges are bias for democrats and want nothing more but to cheat Texas voters out of the votes.

The Presidency is in the hands of the people. If the people want to vote for a person that has no honor and has proven to lie to gain what "He" wants the country to be, against the Constitution of the united states of America so be it. But remember the Tea Party!
If a person can buy the Presidency, who will care about the people?
Let me just say that if you are an American and want this country to survive and prosper that the only candidate that has mentioned following the Constitution and has followed the Constitution as example against all odds is Ron Paul. He truly cares about America and the people, enough so that he said that he would take the same pay as the average American - Has anyone else said that?
Take the time to research the truth. If the people stand behind Ron Paul he will do his best to restore our values for this country and teach the Corporation that the people are in charge.
