Check at the 3-minute mark when Ron notes that neither party proposes cuts, just slightly smaller increases. Then listen as he explains how there's no difference between the parties. At the 10-minute mark he quotes someone who asks "Why don't we have a third party?"

"Why don't we have a second party?" Ron asks.

That's a good question to ask yourself going into the Tuesday debates.

Both candidates rely on the fact that the average citizen has no idea how the budget works. The "cuts" both propose are generally just reductions in increases. When you do the math, there's not a dime's worth of difference between the two.

The same holds on foreign policy. Neither Romney nor Obama endorse the traditional conservative position that Ron endorses. Both accept the liberal interventionist idea that the U.S. should be the policeman of the world. All they're arguing over is who would make the best chief of police.

And when it comes to Libya, you can expect a lot of finger-pointing. What you can't expect is a realistic perspective like this one from Pat Lang at the Sic Semper Tyrannis site:

in the 1980s I spent a lot of time in El Salvador. Our embassy there was a fortress. It was covered with iron grating so that rocket-propelled grenades could not penetrate.

That's the sort of thing you need to do if you want to mess around in the Third World. Neither of these guys wants to do it, but both want to mess around in the Mideast.

Ron feels otherwise. Watch the whole thing.
