I only listed people who ran for and got a fair number of votes for the presidential candidacy in 2008. Ron Paul couldn't have suddenly gained an 50-fold increase in pledged delegates, so he was never really in the running except as an independent (which with the 2 party system, makes sure he can't get nationwide votes).
Ron Paul and Kucinich are my preferences also but hey, the election system was never gonna choose them. It's unfortunate how it works, but that'll have to change seriously before someone other than Obama or Bush can have a chance in hell of being elected.
