Because he is not Mitt Romney? Seems to be the best reason I can see.

Besides that, Samual L Jackson recommends him.

Because he doesn't want to f^ck his fellow Americans. At least not with extreme desire like Mitt.

I enjoyed his book but I wouldn't say it made my life better. Maybe for that week.
As for the tax/spend stuff that is totally in the hands of congress. Says so in their constitution. For some reason they keep shifting stuff to the executive. Domestically the executive isnt supposed to have a whole lot of power.
Either way it goes I'm glad I'm not an American voter. Neither option is appealing. The so called "independents" should actually vote independent rather than the two big parties.

Since Barry is human piece of garbage there's every reason to not vote for this piece of trash, however, if you believe:
Christians should keep their opinions to themselves
criticism of homo***uals is "hate-speech"
the government (and therefore the taxpayer) should hand you everything
Islam is misunderstood
Islamophobia is real
there's nothing wrong with murdering an unborn child
we should scrape the rich to make the government bigger, richer, and more powerful
then by all means, go ahead and for the Son of Satan.

Well for starters he hasn't gone down the route that McCain planned on going: "Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran"
He actually pulled out most of the troops from Iraq and scaling back action in Afghanistan.... he hasn't bent over backwards for Israel in starting another pointless war.... he's been attempting to clean up the mess the Republicans/Bush left the US in..... and Mitt would just keep that mess going.
Mitt doesn't have very good foreign policy or skills/knowledge of other nations as already proven through his venture abroad to prove he did, and when you are stuck between two "evils" typically you choose the lesser of the two.
.... just off the top of my head, but I honestly don't care either way, as I don't live in the US and they're not going to fix their problems any time soon with whoever they vote for.
