> When Edward Snowden and I voted for Obama in 2008 we would have agreed.

Edward Snowden did not vote for Obama.

Edward Snowden: "A lot of people in 2008 voted for Obama. I did not vote for him. I voted for a third party. But I believed in Obama's promises. I was going to disclose it [but waited because of his election]. He continued with the policies of his predecessor."

Ah, that's right, good point. I actually campaigned for Ron Paul myself, but, like Snowden, believed in Obama as my second choice.


He donated to Ron Paul's campaign so my guess is that he voted for him, too.
