I found this article to be supremely interesting. In last few commentaries on the election I’ve generalized and lambasted people for not voting what they believe, but rather what they see as a good character. This article leads me to believe that this isn’t even the right question to ask. It’s not issues versus character. It is whether or not you think the candidate will accomplish what he swears to do: uphold the Constitution.

I’m sure most political experts expect Ron Paul to drop out after Super Tuesday. They expect this because they mistakenly believe Ron Paul is simply a politician who wants to be President; they don’t realize that he is actually the leader of something much bigger. The 90+% of people who didn’t vote for him today don’t understand this either. But there is a chance they will by the brokered convention if the message I attempt to explain below gets out to them. And if it isn’t this year, or the next, or the next, it will happen as long as we who do know why we vote for him don’t get caught up in politics.

How often have you heard someone say, “I don’t really pay attention to politics” and then follow it up with a meager “but I probably should”? The reason often given for not knowing more is that it is just “too complicated.”
