<<instead of because they had thoroughly interrogated and analyzed the relevant credentials of the individuals standing for election. >>>

I appreciate your comments and ideas.

When I analyze the candidates now, I see little difference between Romney and Obama on the things I find most important. If the election was held tomorrow, I'm not sure who I would vote for. But if was between Huntsman and Obama, Huntsman would get my vote. Mostly because of his military ideology; that we are spending too much to defend the world and need to bring that money home to invest here. We have to get our spending under control and one of the easiest ways to do that is stop spending furiously in countries that just do not like us to be there. ..........Huntsman because of his background and close ties to China, likely understands this better than any of the candidates. His ideas deserve a fair hearing.

I don't know anyone who wouldn't switch parties if they saw a truly exemplary character on the other side of the aisle. Luckily for me and the people I know, that won't be an issue this time around.
