So he hates the wars? Good! But that likely stems more from his views on anti-globalism, and isolationism, don't you think?

Good gravy! The rest of his platform is so outrageous, so OPPOSITE of the ideals most of us on THIS site hold dear, I'm not sure why he has so many fans on here...

Disregarding the many allegations of his racism from his early writings and publications and his apparent religious fervor, he still has some policy stances that immediately and utterly disqualify him as a viable candidate for progressives, liberals or Democrats to even consider:

He is so opposed to abortion for reasons of personal belief that he proposes nullifying the Supreme Court (in an effort to rid us of Roe v Wade) - The SCOTUS is one of the checks and balances of our very Constitution. He wants to change the underpinnings of our founding.

He proposes abolishing:

the minimum wage
all income tax
public education (yes, he actually says that all schooling should be "home schooling" by the child's parents

He believes that the Kyoto accords are "bad science"

He is a medical doctor, supposedly a man of science, but does not believe in evolution. He is a creationist (to what extent, unknown)


Okay whatever - there are others better able to argue about this.

I guess what many admire is that he is consistent in his principles and has some...
I am NOT one of his admirers.
