But the answer may not be revealed until around the 17th of January...That's when the truly official certified count will be revealed...Well just in case you are unaware, a Ron Paul supporter, by the name of Edward True (you've got to love his surname as it relates to this story) was working at the Appanoose County caucus counting ballots...And just like many of the 800 million or so people of Facebook, he decided he wanted to share the Appanoose results with his friends/connections/followers/subscribers on Facebook... Low and behold, when he looked at his hand scribbled note, he discovered that the Iowa Republican Caucus' preliminary reported results for Appanoose County were different than what he had written down...Crazy right...Well, welcome to the democratic good ole U.S. of A...Sorry, I'm still trying to get over how when they recounted the votes in George W. Bush's brother's state of Florida, it just so happened that Al Gore lost the Presidential Election in 2000... Oh well, that's election fanfare for ya...Check out why the 2012 Iowa Caucuses results may not be true in this video...
Well not that my opinion really matters much in this crazy controversy, but I believe that the election process is just that, a futile process that must be exercised even though some persons somewhere (and I don't mean the majority of the American public) have already decided who the next president will be...For the sake of PR, I think the whole process has to be played out for the benefit of the masses that might still truly believe that their individual votes actually count...
Although there are seven candidates currently hoping for the Republican nod, the three top slots are currently being held by Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul...A while back I thought that when Jon Huntsman came out of nowhere I thought that he might be the chosen one, but I could be wrong...If he doesn't make it all the way this year, it's possible that he could get the consolation prize to run as VP...At any rate, I think that he may be the one to watch in 2016, if the Republicans don't pull off a win this year...Now as for this year, I wonder how long Ron Paul is going to stay in the leading heap...So far, Ron Paul looks to be the strongest underdog in this race...Stay tuned in as the "Presidential Election Process" World turns...Let us know in the comments below if you think this controversy is evidence of democracy at its best, or not...
