Remember what the 2008 presidential race looked like in 2007? Why don't we wait another year or so and ask ourselves this question then...

but it seems like we have the same players in the race

this is somewhat myopic in my view. there are more important things than supporting startups. even on HN.

There is nothing wrong with asking myopic questions. The author did not state that startups are the only thing that are important; they asked a specific question about a specific issue.

Ron Paul. He's focused on reducing inflation and improving the economy. More $ = more buyers.

That's like saying that UFO conspiracy theorists would be the best at running SETI, as they are focused on contacting aliens.
nhangen
Are you saying he's not qualified to do those things, or that he's a whack job?
tzs
The first is a consequence of the second.

OP asked for an opinion, so I gave it. If you have a better one, then you are welcome to add it, but your quips don't help anyone.
