Really? I thought "We've been there for decades, playing God with their countries, drawing out lines for countries, funding militant groups to shape the world in our favor, and generally being arrogant, nosy interventionists, hence pissing the populace off." was a pretty sound argument.

If he ended up running as an Independent he would still lose big time because it's pretty obvious America is a two party democracy and will stay that way.

Unless people actually
want change. There are a significant number of citizens tired of the Democrat vs. Republican debacle that inevitably ends up with The People being given the shaft. It may not be a large enough force to evoke change in the electoral system yet, but it's on the horizon.

Obama is inexperienced and may or may not be Muslim. That's the guy I want in the white house when we have Muslim extremists trying to attack us.

There are two issues with this: First and foremost, the madrassa he attended as a child was a typical school that shows equal respect to all religions, including Obama's, which is Christianity. Stop watching so much FOX news. Secondly, not all Muslims want to blow up infidels, just as not all Christians hunger for the Apocalypse. It's the narrow-minded, ill-informed, addle-brained manifestation of xenophobia and intolerance that results in statements like yours.
